1 Samuel 9

Now there was a man
<0376>

of Benjamin
<01144>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Kish
<07027>_,

the son
<01121>

of Abiel
<022>_,

the son
<01121>

of Zeror
<06872>_,

the son
<01121>

of Bechorath
<01064>_,

the son
<01121>

of Aphiah
<0647>_,

a Benjamite
<01145>_,

a mighty
<01368>

man
<0376>

of power
<02428>_.

{a Benjamite: or, the son of a man of Jemini} {power: or, substance}

And he had a son
<01121>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Saul
<07586>_,

a choice young man
<0970>_,

and a goodly
<02896>_:

and [there was] not among the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

a goodlier
<02896>

person
<0376>

than he: from his shoulders
<07926>

and upward
<04605>

[he was] higher
<01364>

than any of the people
<05971>_.

And the asses
<0860>

of Kish
<07027>

Saul's
<07586>

father
<01>

were lost
<06> (8799)_.

And Kish
<07027>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Saul
<07586>

his son
<01121>_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

now one
<0259>

of the servants
<05288>

with thee, and arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go
<03212> (8798)

seek
<01245> (8761)

the asses
<0860>_.

And he passed through
<05674> (8799)

mount
<02022>

Ephraim
<0669>_,

and passed through
<05674> (8799)

the land
<0776>

of Shalisha
<08031>_,

but they found
<04672> (8804)

[them] not: then they passed through
<05674> (8799)

the land
<0776>

of Shalim
<08171>_,

and [there they were] not: and he passed through
<05674> (8799)

the land
<0776>

of the Benjamites
<01145>_,

but they found
<04672> (8804)

[them] not.

[And] when they were come
<0935> (8804)

to the land
<0776>

of Zuph
<06689>_,

Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8804)

to his servant
<05288>

that [was] with him, Come
<03212> (8798)_,

and let us return
<07725> (8799)_;

lest my father
<01>

leave
<02308> (8799)

[caring] for the asses
<0860>_,

and take thought
<01672> (8804)

for us.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Behold now, [there is] in this city
<05892>

a man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

and [he is] an honourable
<03513> (8737)

man
<0376>_;

all that he saith
<01696> (8762)

cometh
<0935> (8799)

surely to pass
<0935> (8800)_:

now let us go
<03212> (8799)

thither; peradventure he can shew
<05046> (8686)

us our way
<01870>

that we should go
<01980> (8804)_.

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Saul
<07586>

to his servant
<05288>_,

But, behold, [if] we go
<03212> (8799)_,

what shall we bring
<0935> (8686)

the man
<0376>_?

for the bread
<03899>

is spent
<0235> (8804)

in our vessels
<03627>_,

and [there is] not a present
<08670>

to bring
<0935> (8687)

to the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_:

what have we? {is spent...: Heb. is gone out of, etc} {have we: Heb. is with us?}

And the servant
<05288>

answered
<06030> (8800)

Saul
<07586>

again
<03254> (8686)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, I have
<04672> (8738)

here at hand
<03027>

the fourth part
<07253>

of a shekel
<08255>

of silver
<03701>_:

[that] will I give
<05414> (8804)

to the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

to tell
<05046> (8689)

us our way
<01870>_.

{I have...: Heb. there is found in my hand}

(Beforetime
<06440>

in Israel
<03478>_,

when a man
<0376>

went
<03212> (8800)

to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of God
<0430>_,

thus he spake
<0559> (8804)_,

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

and let us go
<03212> (8799)

to the seer
<07200> (8802)_:

for [he that is] now
<03117>

[called] a Prophet
<05030>

was beforetime
<06440>

called
<07121> (8735)

a Seer
<07200> (8802).)

Then said
<01697>

Saul
<07586>

to his servant
<05288>_,

Well
<02896>

said
<0559> (8799)_;

come
<03212> (8798)_,

let us go
<03212> (8799)_.

So they went
<03212> (8799)

unto the city
<05892>

where the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

[was]. {Well said: Heb. Thy word is good}

[And] as they went up
<05927> (8802)

the hill
<04608>

to the city
<05892>_,

they found
<04672> (8804)

young maidens
<05291>

going out
<03318> (8802)

to draw
<07579> (8800)

water
<04325>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Is
<03426>

the seer
<07200> (8802)

here? {the hill...: Heb. in the ascent of the city}

And they answered
<06030> (8799)

them, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

He is
<03426>_;

behold, [he is] before
<06440>

you: make haste
<04116> (8761)

now, for he came
<0935> (8804)

to day
<03117>

to the city
<05892>_;

for [there is] a sacrifice
<02077>

of the people
<05971>

to day
<03117>

in the high place
<01116>_:

{sacrifice: or, feast}

As soon as ye be come
<0935> (8800)

into the city
<05892>_,

ye shall straightway
<03651>

find
<04672> (8799)

him, before he go up
<05927> (8799)

to the high place
<01116>

to eat
<0398> (8800)_:

for the people
<05971>

will not eat
<0398> (8799)

until he come
<0935> (8800)_,

because he doth bless
<01288> (8762)

the sacrifice
<02077>_;

[and] afterwards
<0310> <03651>

they eat
<0398> (8799)

that be bidden
<07121> (8803)_.

Now therefore get you up
<05927> (8798)_;

for about this time
<03117>

ye shall find
<04672> (8799)

him. {this time: Heb. to day}

And they went up
<05927> (8799)

into
<08432>

the city
<05892>_:

[and] when they were come
<0935> (8802)

into the city
<05892>_,

behold, Samuel
<08050>

came out
<03318> (8802)

against
<07125> (8800)

them, for to go up
<05927> (8800)

to the high place
<01116>_.

Now the LORD
<03068>

had told
<01540> (8804)

Samuel
<08050>

in his ear
<0241>

a
<0259>

day
<03117>

before
<06440>

Saul
<07586>

came
<0935> (8800)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{told...: Heb. revealed the ear of Samuel}

To morrow
<04279>

about this time
<06256>

I will send
<07971> (8799)

thee a man
<0376>

out of the land
<0776>

of Benjamin
<01144>_,

and thou shalt anoint
<04886> (8804)

him [to be] captain
<05057>

over my people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_,

that he may save
<03467> (8689)

my people
<05971>

out of the hand
<03027>

of the Philistines
<06430>_:

for I have looked
<07200> (8804)

upon my people
<05971>_,

because their cry
<06818>

is come
<0935> (8804)

unto me.

And when Samuel
<08050>

saw
<07200> (8804)

Saul
<07586>_,

the LORD
<03068>

said
<06030> (8804)

unto him, Behold the man
<0376>

whom I spake
<0559> (8804)

to thee of! this same shall reign
<06113> (8799)

over my people
<05971>_.

{reign over: Heb. restrain in}

Then Saul
<07586>

drew near
<05066> (8799)

to Samuel
<08050>

in
<08432>

the gate
<08179>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Tell
<05046> (8685)

me, I pray thee, where
<0335>

the seer's
<07200> (8802)

house
<01004>

[is].

And Samuel
<08050>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Saul
<07586>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] the seer
<07200> (8802)_:

go up
<05927> (8798)

before
<06440>

me unto the high place
<01116>_;

for ye shall eat
<0398> (8804)

with me to day
<03117>_,

and to morrow
<01242>

I will let thee go
<07971> (8765)_,

and will tell
<05046> (8686)

thee all that [is] in thine heart
<03824>_.

And as for thine asses
<0860>

that were lost
<06> (8802)

three
<07969>

days
<03117>

ago
<03117>_,

set
<07760> (8799)

not thy mind
<03820>

on them; for they are found
<04672> (8738)_.

And on whom [is] all the desire
<02532>

of Israel
<03478>_?

[Is it] not on thee, and on all thy father's
<01>

house
<01004>_?

{three...: Heb. to day three days}

And Saul
<07586>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

[Am] not I a Benjamite
<01145>_,

of the smallest
<06996>

of the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>_?

and my family
<04940>

the least
<06810>

of all the families
<04940>

of the tribe
<07626>

of Benjamin
<01144>_?

wherefore then speakest
<01696> (8765)

thou so
<01697>

to me? {so...: Heb. according to this word}

And Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

Saul
<07586>

and his servant
<05288>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

them into the parlour
<03957>_,

and made them sit
<05414> (8799)

in the chiefest
<07218>

place
<04725>

among them that were bidden
<07121> (8803)_,

which [were] about thirty
<07970>

persons
<0376>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the cook
<02876>_,

Bring
<05414> (8798)

the portion
<04490>

which I gave
<05414> (8804)

thee, of which I said
<0559> (8804)

unto thee, Set
<07760> (8798)

it by thee.

And the cook
<02876>

took up
<07311> (8686)

the shoulder
<07785>_,

and [that] which [was] upon it, and set
<07760> (8799)

[it] before
<06440>

Saul
<07586>_.

And [Samuel] said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold that which is left
<07604> (8737)_!

set
<07760> (8798)

[it] before
<06440>

thee, [and] eat
<0398> (8798)_:

for unto this time
<04150>

hath it been kept
<08104> (8803)

for thee since I said
<0559> (8800)_,

I have invited
<07121> (8804)

the people
<05971>_.

So Saul
<07586>

did eat
<0398> (8799)

with Samuel
<08050>

that day
<03117>_.

{left: or, reserved}

And when they were come down
<03381> (8799)

from the high place
<01116>

into the city
<05892>_,

[Samuel] communed
<01696> (8762)

with Saul
<07586>

upon the top of the house
<01406>_.

And they arose early
<07925> (8686)_:

and it came to pass about the spring
<05927> (8800)

of the day
<07837>_,

that Samuel
<08050>

called
<07121> (8799)

Saul
<07586>

to the top of the house
<01406>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Up
<06965> (8798)_,

that I may send thee away
<07971> (8762)_.

And Saul
<07586>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and they went out
<03318> (8799)

both
<08147>

of them, he and Samuel
<08050>_,

abroad
<02351>_.

[And] as they were going down
<03381> (8802)

to the end
<07097>

of the city
<05892>_,

Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8804)

to Saul
<07586>_,

Bid
<0559> (8798)

the servant
<05288>

pass on
<05674> (8799)

before
<06440>

us, (and he passed on
<05674> (8798),)

but stand
<05975> (8798)

thou still a while
<03117>_,

that I may shew
<08085> (8686)

thee the word
<01697>

of God
<0430>_.

{a while: Heb. to day}
