have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.<\/p>\n<p>2 And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me. And YHWH said, Take an heifer with thee, and say, I am come to sacrifice to the Lord.<\/p>\n<p>3 And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will shew thee what thou shalt do: and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name unto thee.<\/p>\n<p>4 And Samuel did that which YHWH spake, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, Comest thou peaceably?<\/p>\n<p>5 And he said, Peaceably: I am come to sacrifice unto YHWH: sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely YHWH&#8217;s anointed is before him.<\/p>\n<p>7 But YHWH said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for YHWH seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.<\/p>\n<p>8 Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither hath YHWH chosen this.<\/p>\n<p>9 Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath YHWH chosen this.<\/p>\n<p>10 Again, Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said unto Jesse, YHWH hath not chosen these.<\/p>\n<p>11 And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.<\/p>\n<p>12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And YHWH said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he.<\/p>\n<p>13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him from among his brethren: and the Spirit of YHWH came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.<\/p>\n<p>14 But the Spirit of YHWH departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from YHWH troubled him.<\/p>\n<p>15 And Saul&#8217;s servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.<\/p>\n<p>16 Let our lord now command thy servants, which are before thee, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.<\/p>\n<p>17 And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me.<\/p>\n<p>18 Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and YHWH is with him.<\/p>\n<p>19 Wherefore Saul sent messengers unto Jesse, and said, Send me David thy son, which is with the sheep.<\/p>\n<p>20 And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid, and sent them by David his son unto Saul.<\/p>\n<p>21 And David came to Saul, and stood before him: and he loved him greatly; and he became his armourbearer.<\/p>\n<p>22 And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray thee, stand before me; for he hath found favour in my sight.<\/p>\n<p>23 And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.<\/p>\n<div class=\"previous\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/mtb.online\/bible\/ot9\/c15\/\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex\">\n<svg class=\"reader-arrow h-100 ma0 pa0\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path transform=\"rotate(180, 12, 12)\" stroke=\"none\" stroke-width=\"0\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" fill=\"#888888\" d=\"M 9.07,17.44 L 14.4,12.1 14.4,12.1 C 14.6,11.91 14.6,11.59 14.4,11.4 L 9.09,6.08 9.09,6.08 C 8.7,5.7 8.7,5.08 9.09,4.69 L 9.09,4.69 9.09,4.69 C 9.47,4.31 10.09,4.31 10.47,4.69 L 16.85,11.07 16.85,11.07 C 17.24,11.46 17.24,12.09 16.85,12.49 L 10.49,18.85 10.49,18.85 C 10.09,19.24 9.46,19.24 9.07,18.85 L 9.07,18.85 9.07,18.85 C 8.68,18.46 8.68,17.83 9.07,17.44 Z M 9.07,17.44\"><\/path><\/svg>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"next\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/mtb.online\/bible\/ot9\/c17\/\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex\">\n<svg class=\"reader-arrow\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path transform=\"rotate(0, 12, 12)\" stroke=\"none\" stroke-width=\"0\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" fill=\"#888888\" d=\"M 9.07,17.44 L 14.4,12.1 14.4,12.1 C 14.6,11.91 14.6,11.59 14.4,11.4 L 9.09,6.08 9.09,6.08 C 8.7,5.7 8.7,5.08 9.09,4.69 L 9.09,4.69 9.09,4.69 C 9.47,4.31 10.09,4.31 10.47,4.69 L 16.85,11.07 16.85,11.07 C 17.24,11.46 17.24,12.09 16.85,12.49 L 10.49,18.85 10.49,18.85 C 10.09,19.24 9.46,19.24 9.07,18.85 L 9.07,18.85 9.07,18.85 C 8.68,18.46 8.68,17.83 9.07,17.44 Z M 9.07,17.44\"><\/path><\/svg>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[09] I Samuel 16:1-23 No. Old Testament New Testament 01 Genesis Matthew 02 Exodus Mark 03 Leviticus Luke 04 Numbers John 05 Deuteronomy Acts 06 Joshua Romans 07 Judges I Corinthians 08 Ruth II Corinthians 09 I Samuel Galatians 10 II Samuel Ephesians 11 I Kings Philippians 12 II Kings Colossians 13 I Chronicles I&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":12817,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"templates\/full-width.php","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-15147","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
