rsv@1Samuel:9:3 @ Now the asses of Kish, Saul's father, were lost. So Kish said to Saul his son, "Take one of the servants with you, and arise, go and look for the asses."
rsv@1Samuel:9:5 @ When they came to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, "Come, let us go back, lest my father cease to care about the asses and become anxious about us."
rsv@1Samuel:9:7 @ Then Saul said to his servant, "But if we go, what can we bring the man? For the bread in our sacks is gone, and there is no present to bring to the man of God. What have we?"
rsv@1Samuel:9:8 @ The servant answered Saul again, "Here, I have with me the fourth part of a shekel of silver, and I will give it to the man of God, to tell us our way."
rsv@1Samuel:9:10 @ And Saul said to his servant, "Well said; come, let us go." So they went to the city where the man of God was.
rsv@1Samuel:9:15 @ Now the day before Saul came, the LORD had revealed to Samuel:
rsv@1Samuel:9:17 @ When Samuel saw Saul, the LORD told him, "Here is the man of whom I spoke to you! He it is who shall rule over my people."
rsv@1Samuel:9:18 @ Then Saul approached Samuel in the gate, and said, "Tell me where is the house of the seer?"
rsv@1Samuel:9:19 @ Samuel answered Saul, "I am the seer; go up before me to the high place, for today you shall eat with me, and in the morning I will let you go and will tell you all that is on your mind.
rsv@1Samuel:9:21 @ Saul answered, "Am I not a Benjaminite, from the least of the tribes of Israel? And is not my family the humblest of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? Why then have you spoken to me in this way?"
rsv@1Samuel:9:22 @ Then Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the hall and gave them a place at the head of those who had been invited, who were about thirty persons.
rsv@1Samuel:9:24 @ So the cook took up the leg and the upper portion and set them before Saul; and Samuel said, "See, what was kept is set before you. Eat; because it was kept for you until the hour appointed, that you might eat with the guests." So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
rsv@1Samuel:9:25 @ And when they came down from the high place into the city, a bed was spread for Saul upon the roof, and he lay down to sleep.
rsv@1Samuel:9:26 @ Then at the break of dawn Samuel called to Saul upon the roof, "Up, that I may send you on your way." So Saul arose, and both he and Samuel went out into the street.
rsv@1Samuel:9:27 @ As they were going down to the outskirts of the city, Samuel said to Saul, "Tell the servant to pass on before us, and when he has passed on stop here yourself for a while, that I may make known to you the word of God."

rsv@1Samuel:10:12 @ And a man of the place answered, "And who is their father?" Therefore it became a proverb, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"
rsv@1Samuel:10:14 @ Saul's uncle said to him and to his servant, "Where did you go?" And he said, "To seek the asses; and when we saw they were not to be found, we went to Samuel."
rsv@1Samuel:10:15 @ And Saul's uncle said, "Pray, tell me what Samuel said to you."
rsv@1Samuel:10:16 @ And Saul said to his uncle, "He told us plainly that the asses had been found." But about the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel had spoken, he did not tell him anything.
rsv@1Samuel:10:21 @ He brought the tribe of Benjamin near by its families, and the family of the Matrites was taken by lot; finally he brought the family of the Matrites near man by man, and Saul the son of Kish was taken by lot. But when they sought him, he could not be found.

rsv@1Samuel:11:7 @ He took a yoke of oxen, and cut them in pieces and sent them throughout all the territory of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, "Whoever does not come out after Saul and Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen!"

rsv@1Samuel:11:11 @ And on the morrow Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and cut down the Ammonites until the heat of the day; and those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
rsv@1Samuel:11:12 @ Then the people said to Samuel, "Who is it that said, `Shall Saul reign over us?' Bring the men, that we may put them to death."
rsv@1Samuel:11:13 @ But Saul said, "Not a man shall be put to death this day, for today the LORD has wrought deliverance in Israel."
rsv@1Samuel:11:15 @ So all the people went to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal. There they sacrificed peace offerings before the LORD, and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.

rsv@1Samuel:13:2 @ Saul chose three thousand men of Israel; two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and the hill country of Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gib'e-ah of Benjamin; the rest of the people he sent home, every man to his tent.

rsv@1Samuel:13:10 @ As soon as he had finished offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him and salute him.
rsv@1Samuel:13:11 @ Samuel said, "What have you done?" And Saul said, "When I saw that the people were scattering from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines had mustered at Michmash,
rsv@1Samuel:13:13 @ And Samuel said to Saul, "You have done foolishly; you have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which he commanded you; for now the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel for ever.
rsv@1Samuel:13:15 @ And Samuel arose, and went up from Gilgal to Gib'e-ah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.
rsv@1Samuel:13:16 @ And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people who were present with them, stayed in Geba of Benjamin; but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.
rsv@1Samuel:13:22 @ So on the day of the battle there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people with Saul and Jonathan; but Saul and Jonathan his son had them.
rsv@1Samuel:14:1 @ One day Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man who bore his armor, "Come, let us go over to the Philistine garrison on yonder side." But he did not tell his father.
rsv@1Samuel:14:2 @ Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gib'e-ah under the pomegranate tree which is at Migron; the people who were with him were about six hundred men,

rsv@1Samuel:14:17 @ Then Saul said to the people who were with him, "Number and see who has gone from us." And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armor-bearer were not there.
rsv@1Samuel:14:18 @ And Saul said to Ahi'jah, "Bring hither the ark of God." For the ark of God went at that time with the people of Israel.
rsv@1Samuel:14:19 @ And while Saul was talking to the priest, the tumult in the camp of the Philistines increased more and more; and Saul said to the priest, "Withdraw your hand."
rsv@1Samuel:14:20 @ Then Saul and all the people who were with him rallied and went into the battle; and behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was very great confusion.
rsv@1Samuel:14:21 @ Now the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines before that time and who had gone up with them into the camp, even they also turned to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
rsv@1Samuel:14:24 @ And the men of Israel were distressed that day; for Saul laid an oath on the people, saying, "Cursed be the man who eats food until it is evening and I am avenged on my enemies." So none of the people tasted food.
rsv@1Samuel:14:33 @ Then they told Saul, "Behold, the people are sinning against the LORD, by eating with the blood." And he said, "You have dealt treacherously; roll a great stone to me here."
rsv@1Samuel:14:34 @ And Saul said, "Disperse yourselves among the people, and say to them, `Let every man bring his ox or his sheep, and slay them here, and eat; and do not sin against the LORD by eating with the blood.'" So every one of the people brought his ox with him that night, and slew them there.
rsv@1Samuel:14:35 @ And Saul built an altar to the LORD; it was the first altar that he built to the LORD.
rsv@1Samuel:14:36 @ Then Saul said, "Let us go down after the Philistines by night and despoil them until the morning light; let us not leave a man of them." And they said, "Do whatever seems good to you." But the priest said, "Let us draw near hither to God."
rsv@1Samuel:14:37 @ And Saul inquired of God, "Shall I go down after the Philistines? Wilt thou give them into the hand of Israel?" But he did not answer him that day.
rsv@1Samuel:14:38 @ And Saul said, "Come hither, all you leaders of the people; and know and see how this sin has arisen today.
rsv@1Samuel:14:40 @ Then he said to all Israel, "You shall be on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side." And the people said to Saul, "Do what seems good to you."
rsv@1Samuel:14:41 @ Therefore Saul said, "O LORD God of Israel, why hast thou not answered thy servant this day? If this guilt is in me or in Jonathan my son, O LORD, God of Israel, give Urim; but if this guilt is in thy people Israel, give Thummim." And Jonathan and Saul were taken, but the people escaped.
rsv@1Samuel:14:42 @ Then Saul said, "Cast the lot between me and my son Jonathan." And Jonathan was taken.
rsv@1Samuel:14:43 @ Then Saul said to Jonathan, "Tell me what you have done." And Jonathan told him, "I tasted a little honey with the tip of the staff that was in my hand; here I am, I will die."
rsv@1Samuel:14:44 @ And Saul said, "God do so to me and more also; you shall surely die, Jonathan."
rsv@1Samuel:14:45 @ Then the people said to Saul, "Shall Jonathan die, who has wrought this great victory in Israel? Far from it! As the LORD lives, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he has wrought with God this day." So the people ransomed Jonathan, that he did not die.
rsv@1Samuel:14:46 @ Then Saul went up from pursuing the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.
rsv@1Samuel:14:47 @ When Saul had taken the kingship over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, against the Ammonites, against Edom, against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines; wherever he turned he put them to the worse.
rsv@1Samuel:14:49 @ Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, Ishvi, and Mal'chishu'a; and the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the first-born was Merab, and the name of the younger Michal;
rsv@1Samuel:14:50 @ and the name of Saul's wife was Ahin'o-am the daughter of Ahim'a-az. And the name of the commander of his army was Abner the son of Ner, Saul's uncle;
rsv@1Samuel:14:51 @ Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abi'el.
rsv@1Samuel:14:52 @ There was hard fighting against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any strong man, or any valiant man, he attached him to himself.
rsv@1Samuel:15:1 @ And Samuel said to Saul, "The LORD sent me to anoint you king over his people Israel; now therefore hearken to the words of the LORD.
rsv@1Samuel:15:4 @ So Saul summoned the people, and numbered them in Tela'im, two hundred thousand men on foot, and ten thousand men of Judah.
rsv@1Samuel:15:5 @ And Saul came to the city of Am'alek, and lay in wait in the valley.
rsv@1Samuel:15:6 @ And Saul said to the Ken'ites, "Go, depart, go down from among the Amal'ekites, lest I destroy you with them; for you showed kindness to all the people of Israel when they came up out of Egypt." So the Ken'ites departed from among the Amal'ekites.
rsv@1Samuel:15:7 @ And Saul defeated the Amal'ekites, from Hav'ilah as far as Shur, which is east of Egypt.
rsv@1Samuel:15:9 @ But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep and of the oxen and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them; all that was despised and worthless they utterly destroyed.
rsv@1Samuel:15:11 @ "I repent that I have made Saul king; for he has turned back from following me, and has not performed my commandments." And Samuel was angry; and he cried to the LORD all night.
rsv@1Samuel:15:12 @ And Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning; and it was told Samuel, " Saul came to Carmel, and behold, he set up a monument for himself and turned, and passed on, and went down to Gilgal."
rsv@1Samuel:15:13 @ And Samuel came to Saul, and Saul said to him, "Blessed be you to the LORD; I have performed the commandment of the LORD."
rsv@1Samuel:15:15 @ Saul said, "They have brought them from the Amal'ekites; for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice to the LORD your God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed."
rsv@1Samuel:15:16 @ Then Samuel said to Saul, "Stop! I will tell you what the LORD said to me this night." And he said to him, "Say on."
rsv@1Samuel:15:20 @ And Saul said to Samuel, "I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, I have gone on the mission on which the LORD sent me, I have brought Agag the king of Am'alek, and I have utterly destroyed the Amal'ekites.
rsv@1Samuel:15:24 @ And Saul said to Samuel, "I have sinned; for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice.
rsv@1Samuel:15:26 @ And Samuel said to Saul, "I will not return with you; for you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel."
rsv@1Samuel:15:27 @ As Samuel turned to go away, Saul laid hold upon the skirt of his robe, and it tore.
rsv@1Samuel:15:31 @ So Samuel turned back after Saul; and Saul worshiped the LORD.
rsv@1Samuel:15:34 @ Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house in Gib'e-ah of Saul.
rsv@1Samuel:15:35 @ And Samuel did not see Saul again until the day of his death, but Samuel grieved over Saul. And the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
rsv@1Samuel:16:1 @ The LORD said to Samuel, "How long will you grieve over 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 for myself a king among his sons."
rsv@1Samuel:16:2 @ And Samuel said, "How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me." And the LORD said, "Take a heifer with you, and say, `I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.'
rsv@1Samuel:16:14 @ Now the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD tormented him.
rsv@1Samuel:16:15 @ And Saul's servants said to him, "Behold now, an evil spirit from God is tormenting you.
rsv@1Samuel:16:17 @ So Saul said to his servants, "Provide for me a man who can play well, and bring him to me."
rsv@1Samuel:16:19 @ Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, "Send me David your son, who is with the sheep."
rsv@1Samuel:16:20 @ And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, and a skin of wine and a kid, and sent them by David his son to Saul.
rsv@1Samuel:16:21 @ And David came to Saul, and entered his service. And Saul loved him greatly, and he became his armor-bearer.
rsv@1Samuel:16:22 @ And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, "Let David remain in my service, for he has found favor in my sight."
rsv@1Samuel:16:23 @ And whenever the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, David took the lyre and played it with his hand; so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.
rsv@1Samuel:17:2 @ And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered, and encamped in the valley of Elah, and drew up in line of battle against the Philistines.
rsv@1Samuel:17:8 @ He stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel, "Why have you come out to draw up for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.
rsv@1Samuel:17:11 @ When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.
rsv@1Samuel:17:12 @ Now David was the son of an Eph'rathite of Bethlehem in Judah, named Jesse, who had eight sons. In the days of Saul the man was already old and advanced in years.
rsv@1Samuel:17:13 @ The three eldest sons of Jesse had followed Saul to the battle; and the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eli'ab the first-born, and next to him Abin'adab, and the third Shammah.
rsv@1Samuel:17:14 @ David was the youngest; the three eldest followed Saul,
rsv@1Samuel:17:15 @ but David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.
rsv@1Samuel:17:19 @ Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
rsv@1Samuel:17:31 @ When the words which David spoke were heard, they repeated them before Saul; and he sent for him.
rsv@1Samuel:17:32 @ And David said to Saul, "Let no man's heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine."
rsv@1Samuel:17:33 @ And Saul said to David, "You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he has been a man of war from his youth."
rsv@1Samuel:17:34 @ But David said to Saul, "Your servant used to keep sheep for his father; and when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb from the flock,
rsv@1Samuel:17:37 @ And David said, "The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." And Saul said to David, "Go, and the LORD be with you!"

rsv@1Samuel:17:39 @ And David girded his sword over his armor, and he tried in vain to go, for he was not used to them. Then David said to Saul, "I cannot go with these; for I am not used to them." And David put them off.
rsv@1Samuel:17:55 @ When Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the commander of the army, "Abner, whose son is this youth?" And Abner said, "As your soul lives, O king, I cannot tell."
rsv@1Samuel:17:57 @ And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
rsv@1Samuel:17:58 @ And Saul said to him, "Whose son are you, young man?" And David answered, "I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite."
rsv@1Samuel:18:1 @ When he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
rsv@1Samuel:18:2 @ And Saul took him that day, and would not let him return to his father's house.
rsv@1Samuel:18:5 @ And David went out and was successful wherever Saul sent him; so that Saul set him over the men of war. And this was good in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
rsv@1Samuel:18:6 @ As they were coming home, when David returned from slaying the Philistine, the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with timbrels, with songs of joy, and with instruments of music.
rsv@1Samuel:18:7 @ And the women sang to one another as they made merry, " Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands."
rsv@1Samuel:18:8 @ And Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him; he said, "They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed thousands; and what more can he have but the kingdom?"
rsv@1Samuel:18:9 @ And Saul eyed David from that day on.
rsv@1Samuel:18:10 @ And on the morrow an evil spirit from God rushed upon Saul, and he raved within his house, while David was playing the lyre, as he did day by day. Saul had his spear in his hand;
rsv@1Samuel:18:11 @ and Saul cast the spear, for he thought, "I will pin David to the wall." But David evaded him twice.
rsv@1Samuel:18:12 @ Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him but had departed from Saul.
rsv@1Samuel:18:13 @ So Saul removed him from his presence, and made him a commander of a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
rsv@1Samuel:18:15 @ And when Saul saw that he had great success, he stood in awe of him.
rsv@1Samuel:18:17 @ Then Saul said to David, "Here is my elder daughter Merab; I will give her to you for a wife; only be valiant for me and fight the LORD'S battles." For Saul thought, "Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him."
rsv@1Samuel:18:18 @ And David said to Saul, "Who am I, and who are my kinsfolk, my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?"
rsv@1Samuel:18:19 @ But at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, she was given to A'driel the Meho'lathite for a wife.

rsv@1Samuel:18:21 @ Saul thought, "Let me give her to him, that she may be a snare for him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David a second time, "You shall now be my son-in-law."
rsv@1Samuel:18:22 @ And Saul commanded his servants, "Speak to David in private and say, `Behold, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you; now then become the king's son-in-law.'"
rsv@1Samuel:18:23 @ And Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, "Does it seem to you a little thing to become the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man and of no repute?"
rsv@1Samuel:18:24 @ And the servants of Saul told him, "Thus and so did David speak."
rsv@1Samuel:18:25 @ Then Saul said, "Thus shall you say to David, `The king desires no marriage present except a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, that he may be avenged of the king's enemies.'" Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
rsv@1Samuel:18:27 @ David arose and went, along with his men, and killed two hundred of the Philistines; and David brought their foreskins, which were given in full number to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him his daughter Michal for a wife.
rsv@1Samuel:18:28 @ But when Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that all Israel loved him,
rsv@1Samuel:18:29 @ Saul was still more afraid of David. So Saul was David's enemy continually.
rsv@1Samuel:18:30 @ Then the princes of the Philistines came out to battle, and as often as they came out David had more success than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was highly esteemed.
rsv@1Samuel:19:1 @ And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted much in David.

rsv@1Samuel:20:27 @ But on the second day, the morrow after the new moon, David's place was empty. And Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why has not the son of Jesse come to the meal, either yesterday or today?"

rsv@1Samuel:23:17 @ And he said to him, "Fear not; for the hand of Saul my father shall not find you; you shall be king over Israel, and I shall be next to you; Saul my father also knows this."

rsv@1Samuel:24:4 @ And the men of David said to him, "Here is the day of which the LORD said to you, `Behold, I will give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it shall seem good to you.'" Then David arose and stealthily cut off the skirt of Saul's robe.
rsv@1Samuel:24:5 @ And afterward David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.

rsv@1Samuel:26:5 @ Then David rose and came to the place where Saul had encamped; and David saw the place where Saul lay, with Abner the son of Ner, the commander of his army; Saul was lying within the encampment, while the army was encamped around him.
