Löydetty 2488 Tulokset: King Saul
Samuel thought that it was wrong of them to say, 'Let us have a king to judge us,' so he prayed to Yahweh. (1 Samuel 8, 6)
So, do what they ask; only, you must give them a solemn warning, and must tell them what the king who is to reign over them will do.' (1 Samuel 8, 9)
Everything that Yahweh had said, Samuel then repeated to the people who were asking him for a king. (1 Samuel 8, 10)
He said, 'This is what the king who is to reign over you will do. He will take your sons and direct them to his chariotry and cavalry, and they will run in front of his chariot. (1 Samuel 8, 11)
When that day comes, you will cry aloud because of the king you have chosen for yourselves, but on that day Yahweh will not hear you.' (1 Samuel 8, 18)
The people, however, refused to listen to Samuel. They said, 'No! We are determined to have a king, (1 Samuel 8, 19)
so that we can be like the other nations, with our own king to rule us and lead us and fight our battles.' (1 Samuel 8, 20)
Yahweh then said to Samuel, 'Do as they ask and give them a king.' Samuel then said to the Israelites, 'Go home, each of you, to his own town.' (1 Samuel 8, 22)
He had a son called Saul, a handsome man in the prime of life. Of all the Israelites there was no one more handsome than he; he stood head and shoulders taller than anyone else. (1 Samuel 9, 2)
Now since the donkeys belonging to Kish, Saul's father, had strayed, Kish said to his son Saul, 'My son, take one of the servants with you and be off; go and look for the donkeys.' (1 Samuel 9, 3)
When they reached the territory of Zuph, Saul said to the servant who was with him, 'Come on, let us go back or my father will stop worrying over the donkeys and start being anxious about us.' (1 Samuel 9, 5)
Saul said to his servant, 'But if we do go, what can we take to the man? The food in our sacks is finished, and we have no present to offer the man of God. What else have we got?' (1 Samuel 9, 7)
