1SA-9:1 Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name [was] Kish,
the son of
Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah,
a Benjamite,
a mighty man of power.
1SA-9:2 And he had a son, whose name [was] Saul, a choice young
man, and a
goodly: and [there was] not among the children of Israel a
goodlier person
than he: from his shoulders and upward [he was] higher than any
of the people.
1SA-9:3 And the asses of Kish Saul's father were lost. And Kish
said to Saul
his son, Take now one of the servants with thee, and arise, go
seek the asses.
1SA-9:4 And he passed through mount Ephraim, and passed through
the land of
Shalisha, but they found [them] not: then they passed through
the land of
Shalim, and [there they were] not: and he passed through the
land of the
Benjamites, but they found [them] not.
1SA-9:5 [And] when they were come to the land of Zuph, Saul
said to his
servant that [was] with him, Come, and let us return; lest my
father leave
[caring] for the asses, and take thought for us.
1SA-9:6 And he said unto him, Behold now, [there is] in this
city a man of
God, and [he is] an honourable man; all that he saith cometh
surely to pass:
now let us go thither; peradventure he can show us our way that
we should go.
1SA-9:7 Then said Saul to his servant, But, behold, [if] we go,
what shall we
bring the man? for the bread is spent in our vessels, and [there
is] not a
present to bring to the man of God: what have we?
1SA-9:8 And the servant answered Saul again, and said, Behold,
I have here at
hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver: [that] will I give
to the man of
God, to tell us our way.
1SA-9:9 (Beforetime in Israel, when a man went to inquire of
God, thus he
spake, Come, and let us go to the seer: for [he that is] now
[called] a
Prophet was beforetime called a Seer.)
1SA-9:10 Then said Saul to his servant, Well said; come, let us
go. So they
went unto the city where the man of God [was].
1SA-9:11 [And] as they went up the hill to the city, they found
young maidens
going out to draw water, and said unto them, Is the seer here?
1SA-9:12 And they answered them, and said, He is; behold, [he
is] before you:
make haste now, for he came to day to the city; for [there is] a
sacrifice of
the people to day in the high place:
1SA-9:13 As soon as ye be come into the city, ye shall
straightway find him,
before he go up to the high place to eat: for the people will
not eat until he
come, because he doth bless the sacrifice; [and] afterwards they
eat that be
bidden. Now therefore get you up; for about this time ye shall
find him.
1SA-9:14 And they went up into the city: [and] when they were
come into the
city, behold, Samuel came out against them, for to go up to the
high place.
1SA-9:15 Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear a day before
Saul came,
saying,
1SA-9:16 To morrow about this time I will send thee a man out
of the land of
Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him [to be] captain over my
