1 Samuel 10:27 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Samuel took a jar of the special oil and poured the oil on Saul's head. Samuel kissed Saul and said, "The Lord has anointed you to be the leader over the people who belong to him. You will control the people. You will save them from the enemies that are all around them. He has anointed you to be ruler over his people. Here is a sign that will prove this is true:
2 After you leave me today, you will meet two men near Rachel's tomb on the border of Benjamin at Zelzah. The two men will say to you, 'Someone found the donkeys you were looking for. Your father stopped worrying about his donkeys. Now he is worrying about you. He is saying: What will I do about my son?'"
3 Samuel said, "Then you will go until you come to the large oak tree at Tabor. Three men will meet you there. They will be on their way to worship God at Bethel. One man will be carrying three young goats. The second man will be carrying three loaves of bread. And the third man will have a bottle of wine.
4 These three men will say hello to you. They will offer you two loaves of bread, and you will accept the two loaves.
5 Then you will go to Gibeath Elohim. There is a Philistine fort in that place. When you come to this town, a group of prophets will come out. These prophets will come down from the place for worship. They will be prophesying. They will be playing harps, tambourines, flutes, and lyres.
6 Then the Lord's Spirit will come on you with great power. You will be changed. You will be like a different man. You will begin to prophesy with these prophets.
7 After that happens, you can do whatever you choose to do, because God will be with you.
8 "Go to Gilgal before me. Then I will come there to you. And I will offer burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. But you must wait seven days. Then I will come and tell you what to do."
9 Just as Saul turned to leave Samuel, God turned Saul's life around. All these things happened that day.
10 When Saul and his servant came to Gibeath Elohim, Saul met a group of prophets. God's Spirit came on Saul with great power, and Saul prophesied with the prophets.
11 Some of the people who had known Saul before saw him prophesying with the prophets. So they asked each other, "What has happened to Kish's son? Is Saul also one the prophets?"
12 A man living in Gibeath Elohim said, "Yes, and it seems that he is their leader." That is why this became a famous saying: "Is Saul also one of the prophets?"
13 After Saul finished prophesying, he went to the place of worship.
14 Saul's uncle asked Saul and his servant, "Where have you been?" Saul said, "We were looking for the donkeys. When we couldn't find them, we went to see Samuel."
15 Saul's uncle said, "Please tell me, what did Samuel say to you?"
16 Saul answered, "Samuel told us the donkeys were already found." He did not tell his uncle everything. Saul did not tell him what Samuel said about the kingdom.
17 Samuel told all the Israelites to meet together with the Lord at Mizpah.
18 Samuel told the Israelites, "The Lord, the God of Israel says, 'I led Israel out of Egypt. I saved you from Egypt's control and from the other kingdoms that tried to hurt you.'
19 But today you have rejected your God. Your God saves you from all your troubles and problems. But you said, 'No, we want a king to rule us.' Now come, stand before the Lord in your family groups and tribes."
20 Samuel brought all the tribes of Israel near. Then Samuel began to choose the new king. First, the tribe of Benjamin was chosen.
21 Samuel told each family in the tribe of Benjamin to pass by. Matri's family was chosen. Then Samuel told each man in Matri's family to walk by. Saul son of Kish was chosen. But when the people looked for Saul, they could not find him.
22 Then they asked the Lord, "Has Saul come here yet?" The Lord said, "Saul is hiding behind the supplies."
23 The people ran and took Saul out from behind the supplies. Saul stood up among the people. He was a head taller than anyone else.
24 Samuel said to all the people, "See the man the Lord has chosen. There is no one like Saul among the people." Then the people shouted, "Long live the king!"
25 Samuel explained the rules of the kingdom to the people. He wrote the rules in a book and put the book before the Lord. Then Samuel told the people to go home.
26 Saul also went to his home in Gibeah. God touched the hearts of brave men who then began to follow Saul.
27 But some troublemakers said, "How can this man save us?" They said bad things about Saul and refused to bring gifts to him. But Saul said nothing. King Nahash of the Ammonites had been hurting the tribes of Gad and Reuben. Nahash poked out the right eye of each of the men and did not allow anyone to help them. He poked out the right eye of every Israelite man living in the area east of the Jordan River. But 7000 Israelite men ran away from the Ammonites and came to Jabesh Gilead.
1 Then Samuel H8050 took H3947 H853 a vial H6378 of oil, H8081 and poured H3332 it upon H5921 his head, H7218 and kissed H5401 him , and said, H559 Is it not H3808 because H3588 the LORD H3068 hath anointed H4886 thee to be captain H5057 over H5921 his inheritance H5159 ?
2 When thou art departed H1980 from H4480 H5973 me today, H3117 then thou shalt find H4672 two H8147 men H376 by H5973 Rachel's H7354 sepulcher H6900 in the border H1366 of Benjamin H1144 at Zelzah; H6766 and they will say H559 unto H413 thee , The asses H860 which H834 thou wentest H1980 to seek H1245 are found: H4672 and, lo, H2009 thy father H1 hath left H5203 H853 the care H1697 of the asses, H860 and sorroweth H1672 for you, saying, H559 What H4100 shall I do H6213 for my son H1121 ?
3 Then shalt thou go on H2498 forward H1973 from thence H4480 H8033 , and thou shalt come H935 to H5704 the plain H436 of Tabor, H8396 and there H8033 shall meet H4672 thee three H7969 men H376 going up H5927 to H413 God H430 to Bethel, H1008 one H259 carrying H5375 three H7969 kids, H1423 and another H259 carrying H5375 three H7969 loaves H3603 of bread, H3899 and another H259 carrying H5375 a bottle H5035 of wine: H3196
4 And they will salute H7592 H7965 thee , and give H5414 thee two H8147 loaves of bread; H3899 which thou shalt receive H3947 of their hands H4480 H3027 .
5 After that H310 H3651 thou shalt come H935 to the hill H1389 of God, H430 where H834 H8033 is the garrison H5333 of the Philistines: H6430 and it shall come to pass, H1961 when thou art come H935 thither H8033 to the city, H5892 that thou shalt meet H6293 a company H2256 of prophets H5030 coming down H3381 from the high place H4480 H1116 with a psaltery, H5035 and a tabret, H8596 and a pipe, H2485 and a harp, H3658 before H6440 them ; and they H1992 shall prophesy: H5012
6 And the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 will come H6743 upon H5921 thee , and thou shalt prophesy H5012 with them, H5973 and shalt be turned H2015 into another H312 man. H376
7 And let it be, H1961 when H3588 these H428 signs H226 are come H935 unto thee, that thou do H6213 as occasion serve H834 H4672 H3027 thee; for H3588 God H430 is with H5973 thee.
8 And thou shalt go down H3381 before H6440 me to Gilgal; H1537 and, behold, H2009 I H595 will come down H3381 unto H413 thee , to offer H5927 burnt offerings, H5930 and to sacrifice H2076 sacrifices H2077 of peace offerings: H8002 seven H7651 days H3117 shalt thou tarry, H3176 till H5704 I come H935 to H413 thee , and show H3045 thee H853 what H834 thou shalt do. H6213
9 And it was H1961 so , that when he had turned H6437 his back H7926 to go H1980 from H4480 H5973 Samuel, H8050 God H430 gave H2015 him another H312 heart: H3820 and all H3605 those H428 signs H226 came to pass H935 that H1931 day. H3117
10 And when they came H935 thither H8033 to the hill, H1389 behold, H2009 a company H2256 of prophets H5030 met H7125 him ; and the Spirit H7307 of God H430 came H6743 upon H5921 him , and he prophesied H5012 among H8432 them.
11 And it came to pass, H1961 when all H3605 that knew H3045 him formerly H4480 H865 H8032 saw H7200 that, behold, H2009 he prophesied H5012 among H5973 the prophets, H5030 then the people H5971 said H559 one H376 to H413 another, H7453 What H4100 is this H2088 that is come H1961 unto the son H1121 of Kish H7027 ? Is Saul H7586 also H1571 among the prophets H5030 ?
12 And one H376 of the same place H4480 H8033 answered H6030 and said, H559 But who H4310 is their father H1 ? Therefore H5921 H3651 it became H1961 a proverb, H4912 Is Saul H7586 also H1571 among the prophets H5030 ?
13 And when he had made an end H3615 of prophesying H4480 H5012 , he came H935 to the high place. H1116
14 And Saul's H7586 uncle H1730 said H559 unto H413 him and to H413 his servant, H5288 Whither H575 went H1980 ye? And he said, H559 To seek H1245 H853 the asses: H860 and when we saw H7200 that H3588 they were no where, H369 we came H935 to H413 Samuel. H8050
15 And Saul's H7586 uncle H1730 said, H559 Tell H5046 me , I pray thee, H4994 what H4100 Samuel H8050 said H559 unto you.
16 And Saul H7586 said H559 unto H413 his uncle, H1730 He told us plainly H5046 H5046 that H3588 the asses H860 were found. H4672 But of the matter H1697 of the kingdom, H4410 whereof H834 Samuel H8050 spoke, H559 he told H5046 him not. H3808
17 And Samuel H8050 called the people together H6817 H853 H5971 unto H413 the LORD H3068 to Mizpeh; H4709
18 And said H559 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 I H595 brought up H5927 H853 Israel H3478 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 , and delivered H5337 you out of the hand H4480 H3027 of the Egyptians, H4714 and out of the hand H4480 H3027 of all H3605 kingdoms, H4467 and of them that oppressed H3905 you:
19 And ye H859 have this day H3117 rejected H3988 H853 your God, H430 who H834 himself H1931 saved H3467 you out of all H4480 H3605 your adversities H7451 and your tribulations; H6869 and ye have said H559 unto him, Nay , but H3588 set H7760 a king H4428 over H5921 us. Now H6258 therefore present yourselves H3320 before H6440 the LORD H3068 by your tribes, H7626 and by your thousands. H505
20 And when Samuel H8050 had caused H853 all H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 to come near, H7126 the tribe H7626 of Benjamin H1144 was taken. H3920
21 When he had caused H853 the tribe H7626 of Benjamin H1144 to come near H7126 by their families, H4940 the family H4940 of Matri H4309 was taken, H3920 and Saul H7586 the son H1121 of Kish H7027 was taken: H3920 and when they sought H1245 him , he could not H3808 be found. H4672
22 Therefore they inquired H7592 of the LORD H3068 further, H5750 if the man H376 should yet H5750 come H935 thither. H1988 And the LORD H3068 answered, H559 Behold, H2009 he H1931 hath hid himself H2244 among H413 the stuff. H3627
23 And they ran H7323 and fetched H3947 him thence H4480 H8033 : and when he stood H3320 among H8432 the people, H5971 he was higher H1361 than any H4480 H3605 of the people H5971 from his shoulders H4480 H7926 and upward. H4605
24 And Samuel H8050 said H559 to H413 all H3605 the people, H5971 See H7200 ye him whom H834 the LORD H3068 hath chosen, H977 that H3588 there is none H369 like him H3644 among all H3605 the people H5971 ? And all H3605 the people H5971 shouted, H7321 and said, H559 God save H2421 the king. H4428
25 Then Samuel H8050 told H1696 H413 the people H5971 H853 the manner H4941 of the kingdom, H4410 and wrote H3789 it in a book, H5612 and laid it up H5117 before H6440 the LORD. H3068 And Samuel H8050 sent H7971 H853 all H3605 the people H5971 away , every man H376 to his house. H1004
26 And Saul H7586 also H1571 went H1980 home H1004 to Gibeah; H1390 and there went H1980 with H5973 him a band of men, H2428 whose H834 hearts H3820 God H430 had touched. H5060
27 But the children H1121 of Belial H1100 said, H559 How H4100 shall this H2088 man save H3467 us? And they despised H959 him , and brought H935 him no H3808 presents. H4503 But he held his peace. H2790
