And as Samuel was offering up the burnt-offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel; but Jehovah thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were smitten down before Israel.

יְהוָ֣ה׀ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, saying, Hitherto hath Jehovah helped us.

יְהוָֽה׃ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more within the border of Israel: and the hand of Jehovah was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And his return was to Ramah, for there was his house; and there he judged Israel: and he built there an altar unto Jehovah.

לַֽיהוָֽה׃ (יהוָֽה) Yah.weh “Yahweh”

But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto Jehovah.

יְהוָֽה׃ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Jehovah said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee; for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not be king over them.

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Samuel told all the words of Jehovah unto the people that asked of him a king.

יְהוָ֑ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king whom ye shall have chosen you; and Jehovah will not answer you in that day.

יְהוָ֛ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of Jehovah.

יְהוָֽה׃ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Jehovah said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.

יְהוָ֤ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

Now Jehovah had revealed unto Samuel a day before Saul came, saying,

וַֽיהוָ֔ה (יהוָ֔ה) Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And when Samuel saw Saul, Jehovah said unto him, Behold, the man of whom I spake to thee! this same shall have authority over my people.

וַיהוָ֣ה (יהוָ֣ה) Yah.weh “Yahweh”

Then Samuel took the vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not that Jehovah hath anointed thee to be prince over his inheritance?

יְהוָ֛ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and the Spirit of Jehovah will come mightily upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Samuel called the people together unto Jehovah to Mizpah;

יְהוָ֖ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and he said unto the children of Israel, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you:

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

but ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saveth you out of all your calamities and your distresses; and ye have said unto him, [ergänzt: Nay], but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before Jehovah by your tribes, and by your thousands.

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

Therefore they asked of Jehovah further, Is there yet a man to come hither? And Jehovah answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage.

בַּֽיהוָ֔ה (יהוָ֔ה) Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom Jehovah hath chosen, that there is none like him along all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, [ergänzt: Long] live the king.

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before Jehovah. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.

יְהוָ֑ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And he took a yoke of oxen, and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the borders of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, Whosoever cometh not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done unto his oxen. And the dread of Jehovah fell on the people, and they came out as one man.

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death this day; for to-day Jehovah hath wrought deliverance in Israel.

יְהוָ֥ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And all the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before Jehovah in Gilgal; and there they offered sacrifices of peace-offerings before Jehovah; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָ֑ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

Here I am: witness against me before Jehovah, and before his anointed: whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I taken a ransom to blind mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it you.

יְהוָ֜ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And he said unto them, Jehovah is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that ye have not found aught in my hand. And they said, He is witness.

יְהוָ֣ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”
