Saul said to Samuel, Yes, I have obeyed the voice of Yahweh, and have gone the way which Yahweh sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (יֹּ֨אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Samuel said, Has Yahweh as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of Yahweh? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams.

Saul said to Samuel, I have sinned; for I have transgressed the commandment of Yahweh, and your words, because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (יֹּ֨אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Samuel said to Saul, I will not return with you; for you have rejected the word of Yahweh, and Yahweh has rejected you from being king over Israel.

Samuel said to him, Yahweh has torn the kingdom of Israel from you this day, and has given it to a neighbor of yours who is better than you.

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר (יֹּ֤אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Then he said, I have sinned: yet honor me now, Please, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship Yahweh your God.

וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (יֹּ֣אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Yahweh said to Samuel, How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from being king over Israel? fill your horn with oil, and go: I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite; for I have provided me a king among his sons.

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (יֹּ֨אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me. Yahweh said, Take a heifer with you, and say, I am come to sacrifice to Yahweh.

Samuel did that which Yahweh spoke, and came to Bethlehem. The elders of the city came to meet him trembling, and said, Come you peaceably?

וַיֹּ֖אמֶר (יֹּ֖אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “someone said”

He said, Peaceably; I am come to sacrifice to Yahweh: sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. He sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.

It happened, when they had come, that he looked at Eliab, and said, Surely Yahweh's anointed is before him.

וַיֹּ֕אמֶר (יֹּ֕אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

But Yahweh said to Samuel, "Don't look on his face, or on the height of his stature; because I have rejected him: for [supplied: Yahweh sees] not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart."

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (יֹּ֨אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, Neither has Yahweh chosen this.

Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. He said, Neither has Yahweh chosen this.

וַיֹּ֕אמֶר (יֹּ֕אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. Samuel said to Jesse, Yahweh has not chosen these.

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר (יֹּ֤אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Samuel said to Jesse, Are here all your children? He said, There remains yet the youngest, and, behold, he is keeping the sheep. Samuel said to Jesse, Send and get him; for we will not sit down until he come here.

יֹאמַר־ yo.mar- “let him say”

Saul said to his servants, Provide me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me.

וַיֹּ֥אמֶר (יֹּ֥אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”

Then answered one of the young men, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, and a mighty man of valor, and a man of war, and prudent in speech, and a comely person; and Yahweh is with him.

וַיֹּ֗אמֶר (יֹּ֗אמֶר) i.Yo.mer “he said”
