12:3

Behold, here I [am]: witness
<06030> (8798)

against me before the LORD
<03068>_,

and before his anointed
<04899>_:

whose ox
<07794>

have I taken
<03947> (8804)_?

or whose ass
<02543>

have I taken
<03947> (8804)_?

or whom have I defrauded
<06231> (8804)_?

whom have I oppressed
<07533> (8804)_?

or of whose hand
<03027>

have I received [any] bribe
<03724>

to blind
<05956> (8686)

mine eyes
<05869>

therewith? and I will restore
<07725> (8686)

it you. {bribe: Heb. ransom} {to blind...: or, that I should hide mine eyes at him}

1 Samuel 12:1

12:1

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all Israel
<03478>_,

Behold, I have hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto your voice
<06963>

in all that ye said
<0559> (8804)

unto me, and have made
<04427> (8686)

a king
<04428>

over you.

1 Samuel 6:1-21

6:1

And the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>

was in the country
<07704>

of the Philistines
<06430>

seven
<07651>

months
<02320>_.

6:2

And the Philistines
<06430>

called
<07121> (8799)

for the priests
<03548>

and the diviners
<07080> (8802)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What shall we do
<06213> (8799)

to the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>_?

tell
<03045> (8685)

us wherewith we shall send
<07971> (8762)

it to his place
<04725>_.

6:3

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

If ye send away
<07971> (8764)

the ark
<0727>

of the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

send
<07971> (8762)

it not empty
<07387>_;

but in any wise
<07725> (8687)

return
<07725> (8686)

him a trespass offering
<0817>_:

then ye shall be healed
<07495> (8735)_,

and it shall be known
<03045> (8738)

to you why his hand
<03027>

is not removed
<05493> (8799)

from you.

6:4

Then said
<0559> (8799)

they, What [shall be] the trespass offering
<0817>

which we shall return
<07725> (8686)

to him? They answered
<0559> (8799)_,

Five
<02568>

golden
<02091>

emerods
<02914> (8675) <06076>_,

and five
<02568>

golden
<02091>

mice
<05909>_,

[according to] the number
<04557>

of the lords
<05633>

of the Philistines
<06430>_:

for one
<0259>

plague
<04046>

[was] on you all, and on your lords
<05633>_.

{you: Heb. them}

6:5

Wherefore ye shall make
<06213> (8804)

images
<06754>

of your emerods
<02914> (8675) <06076>_,

and images
<06754>

of your mice
<05909>

that mar
<07843> (8688)

the land
<0776>_;

and ye shall give
<05414> (8804)

glory
<03519>

unto the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_:

peradventure he will lighten
<07043> (8686)

his hand
<03027>

from off you, and from off your gods
<0430>_,

and from off your land
<0776>_.

6:6

Wherefore then do ye harden
<03513> (8762)

your hearts
<03824>_,

as the Egyptians
<04714>

and Pharaoh
<06547>

hardened
<03513> (8765)

their hearts
<03820>_?

when he had wrought wonderfully
<05953> (8694)

among them, did they not let the people go
<07971> (8762)_,

and they departed
<03212> (8799)_?

{wonderfully: or, reproachfully} {the people: Heb. them}

6:7

Now therefore make
<06213> (8798)

a
<0259>

new
<02319>

cart
<05699>_,

and take
<03947> (8798)

two
<08147>

milch
<05763> (8802)

kine
<06510>_,

on which there hath come
<05927> (8804)

no yoke
<05923>_,

and tie
<0631> (8804)

the kine
<06510>

to the cart
<05699>_,

and bring
<07725> (8689)

their calves
<01121>

home
<01004>

from them
<0310>_:

6:8

And take
<03947> (8804)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and lay
<05414> (8804)

it upon the cart
<05699>_;

and put
<07760> (8799)

the jewels
<03627>

of gold
<02091>_,

which ye return
<07725> (8689)

him [for] a trespass offering
<0817>_,

in a coffer
<0712>

by the side
<06654>

thereof; and send it away
<07971> (8765)_,

that it may go
<01980> (8804)_.

6:9

And see
<07200> (8804)_,

if it goeth up
<05927> (8799)

by the way
<01870>

of his own coast
<01366>

to Bethshemesh
<01053>_,

[then] he hath done
<06213> (8804)

us this great
<01419>

evil
<07451>_:

but if not, then we shall know
<03045> (8804)

that [it is] not his hand
<03027>

[that] smote
<05060> (8804)

us: it [was] a chance
<04745>

[that] happened to us
<01961> (8804)_.

{he: or, it}

6:10

And the men
<0582>

did so
<06213> (8799)_;

and took
<03947> (8799)

two
<08147>

milch
<05763> (8802)

kine
<06510>_,

and tied
<0631> (8799)

them to the cart
<05699>_,

and shut up
<03607> (8804)

their calves
<01121>

at home
<01004>_:

6:11

And they laid
<07760> (8799)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>

upon the cart
<05699>_,

and the coffer
<0712>

with the mice
<05909>

of gold
<02091>

and the images
<06754>

of their emerods
<02914>_.

6:12

And the kine
<06510>

took the straight
<03474> (8799)

way
<01870>

to the way
<01870>

of Bethshemesh
<01053>_,

[and] went along
<01980> (8804)

the highway
<04546> <0259>_,

lowing
<01600> (8800)

as they went
<01980> (8800)_,

and turned not aside
<05493> (8804)

[to] the right hand
<03225>

or [to] the left
<08040>_;

and the lords
<05633>

of the Philistines
<06430>

went
<01980> (8802)

after
<0310>

them unto the border
<01366>

of Bethshemesh
<01053>_.

6:13

And [they of] Bethshemesh
<01053>

[were] reaping
<07114> (8802)

their wheat
<02406>

harvest
<07105>

in the valley
<06010>_:

and they lifted up
<05375> (8799)

their eyes
<05869>_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)

the ark
<0727>_,

and rejoiced
<08055> (8799)

to see
<07200> (8800)

[it].

6:14

And the cart
<05699>

came
<0935> (8802)

into the field
<07704>

of Joshua
<03091>_,

a Bethshemite
<01030>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

there, where [there was] a great
<01419>

stone
<068>_:

and they clave
<01234> (8762)

the wood
<06086>

of the cart
<05699>_,

and offered
<05927> (8689)

the kine
<06510>

a burnt offering
<05930>

unto the LORD
<03068>_.

6:15

And the Levites
<03881>

took down
<03381> (8689)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and the coffer
<0712>

that [was] with it, wherein the jewels
<03627>

of gold
<02091>

[were], and put
<07760> (8799)

[them] on the great
<01419>

stone
<068>_:

and the men
<0582>

of Bethshemesh
<01053>

offered
<05927> (8689)

burnt offerings
<05930>

and sacrificed
<02076> (8799)

sacrifices
<02077>

the same day
<03117>

unto the LORD
<03068>_.

6:16

And when the five
<02568>

lords
<05633>

of the Philistines
<06430>

had seen
<07200> (8804)

[it], they returned
<07725> (8799)

to Ekron
<06138>

the same day
<03117>_.

6:17

And these [are] the golden
<02091>

emerods
<02914>

which the Philistines
<06430>

returned
<07725> (8689)

[for] a trespass offering
<0817>

unto the LORD
<03068>_;

for Ashdod
<0795>

one
<0259>_,

for Gaza
<05804>

one
<0259>_,

for Askelon
<0831>

one
<0259>_,

for Gath
<01661>

one
<0259>_,

for Ekron
<06138>

one
<0259>_;

6:18

And the golden
<02091>

mice
<05909>_,

[according to] the number
<04557>

of all the cities
<05892>

of the Philistines
<06430>

[belonging] to the five
<02568>

lords
<05633>_,

[both] of fenced
<04013>

cities
<05892>_,

and of country
<06521>

villages
<03724>_,

even unto the great
<01419>

[stone of] Abel
<059>_,

whereon they set down
<03240> (8689)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

[which stone remaineth] unto this day
<03117>

in the field
<07704>

of Joshua
<03091>_,

the Bethshemite
<01030>_.

{great...: or, great stone}

6:19

And he smote
<05221> (8686)

the men
<0376>

of Bethshemesh
<01053>_,

because they had looked
<07200> (8804)

into the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

even he smote
<05221> (8686)

of the people
<05971>

fifty
<02572>

thousand
<0505>

and threescore and ten
<07657>

men
<0582>_:

and the people
<05971>

lamented
<056> (8691)_,

because the LORD
<03068>

had smitten
<05221> (8689)

[many] of the people
<05971>

with a great
<01419>

slaughter
<04347>_.

6:20

And the men
<0582>

of Bethshemesh
<01053>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who is able
<03201> (8799)

to stand
<05975> (8800)

before
<06440>

this holy
<06918>

LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>_?

and to whom shall he go up
<05927> (8799)

from us?

6:21

And they sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

to the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Kirjathjearim
<07157>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The Philistines
<06430>

have brought again
<07725> (8689)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

come ye down
<03381> (8798)_,

[and] fetch it up
<05927> (8685)

to you.

1 Samuel 10:1-27

10:1

Then Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

a vial
<06378>

of oil
<08081>_,

and poured
<03332> (8799)

[it] upon his head
<07218>_,

and kissed
<05401> (8799)

him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

[Is it] not because the LORD
<03068>

hath anointed
<04886> (8804)

thee [to be] captain
<05057>

over his inheritance
<05159>_?

10:2

When thou art departed
<03212> (8800)

from me
<05978>

to day
<03117>_,

then thou shalt find
<04672> (8804)

two
<08147>

men
<0582>

by Rachel's
<07354>

sepulchre
<06900>

in the border
<01366>

of Benjamin
<01144>

at Zelzah
<06766>_;

and they will say
<0559> (8804)

unto thee, The asses
<0860>

which thou wentest
<01980> (8804)

to seek
<01245> (8763)

are found
<04672> (8738)_:

and, lo, thy father
<01>

hath left
<05203> (8804)

the care
<01697>

of the asses
<0860>_,

and sorroweth
<01672> (8804)

for you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What shall I do
<06213> (8799)

for my son
<01121>_?

{care: Heb. business}

10:3

Then shalt thou go on
<02498> (8804)

forward
<01973>

from thence, and thou shalt come
<0935> (8804)

to the plain
<0436>

of Tabor
<08396>_,

and there shall meet
<04672> (8804)

thee three
<07969>

men
<0582>

going up
<05927> (8802)

to God
<0430>

to Bethel
<01008>_,

one
<0259>

carrying
<05375> (8802)

three
<07969>

kids
<01423>_,

and another
<0259>

carrying
<05375> (8802)

three
<07969>

loaves
<03603>

of bread
<03899>_,

and another
<0259>

carrying
<05375> (8802)

a bottle
<05035>

of wine
<03196>_:

10:4

And they will
<07592> (8804)

salute
<07965>

thee, and give
<05414> (8804)

thee two
<08147>

[loaves] of bread
<03899>_;

which thou shalt receive
<03947> (8804)

of their hands
<03027>_.

{salute...: Heb. ask thee of peace}

10:5

After
<0310>

that thou shalt come
<0935> (8799)

to the hill
<01389>

of God
<0430>_,

where [is] the garrison
<05333>

of the Philistines
<06430>_:

and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither
<0935> (8800)

to the city
<05892>_,

that thou shalt meet
<06293> (8804)

a company
<02256>

of prophets
<05030>

coming down
<03381> (8802)

from the high place
<01116>

with a psaltery
<05035>_,

and a tabret
<08596>_,

and a pipe
<02485>_,

and a harp
<03658>_,

before
<06440>

them; and they shall prophesy
<05012> (8693)_:

10:6

And the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

will come
<06743> (8804)

upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy
<05012> (8694)

with them, and shalt be turned
<02015> (8738)

into another
<0312>

man
<0376>_.

10:7

And let it be, when these signs
<0226>

are come
<0935> (8799)

unto thee, [that] thou do
<06213> (8798)

as occasion
<04672> (8799)

serve
<03027>

thee; for God
<0430>

[is] with thee. {And...: Heb. And it shall come to pass, that when these signs, etc} {that...: Heb. do for thee as thine hand shall find}

10:8

And thou shalt go down
<03381> (8804)

before
<06440>

me to Gilgal
<01537>_;

and, behold, I will come down
<03381> (8802)

unto thee, to offer
<05927> (8687)

burnt offerings
<05930>_,

[and] to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

sacrifices
<02077>

of peace offerings
<08002>_:

seven
<07651>

days
<03117>

shalt thou tarry
<03176> (8686)_,

till I come
<0935> (8800)

to thee, and shew
<03045> (8689)

thee what thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)_.

10:9

And it was [so], that when he had turned
<06437> (8687)

his back
<07926>

to go
<03212> (8800)

from Samuel
<08050>_,

God
<0430>

gave
<02015> (8799)

him another
<0312>

heart
<03820>_:

and all those signs
<0226>

came
<0935> (8799)

to pass that day
<03117>_.

{back: Heb. shoulder} {gave: Heb. turned}

10:10

And when they came
<0935> (8799)

thither to the hill
<01389>_,

behold, a company
<02256>

of prophets
<05030>

met
<07125> (8800)

him; and the Spirit
<07307>

of God
<0430>

came
<06743> (8799)

upon him, and he prophesied
<05012> (8691)

among
<08432>

them.

10:11

And it came to pass, when all that knew
<03045> (8802)

him beforetime
<0865> <08032>

saw
<07200> (8799)

that, behold, he prophesied
<05012> (8738)

among the prophets
<05030>_,

then the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

one
<0376>

to another
<07453>_,

What [is] this [that] is come unto the son
<01121>

of Kish
<07027>_?

[Is] Saul
<07586>

also among the prophets
<05030>_?

{one...: Heb. a man to his neighbour}

10:12

And one
<0376>

of the same place answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

But who [is] their father
<01>_?

Therefore it became a proverb
<04912>_,

[Is] Saul
<07586>

also among the prophets
<05030>_?

{of...: Heb. from thence}

10:13

And when he had made an end
<03615> (8762)

of prophesying
<05012> (8692)_,

he came
<0935> (8799)

to the high place
<01116>_.

10:14

And Saul's
<07586>

uncle
<01730>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him and to his servant
<05288>_,

Whither
<0575>

went
<01980> (8804)

ye? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

To seek
<01245> (8763)

the asses
<0860>_:

and when we saw
<07200> (8799)

that [they were] no where
<0369>_,

we came
<0935> (8799)

to Samuel
<08050>_.

10:15

And Saul's
<07586>

uncle
<01730>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Tell
<05046> (8685)

me, I pray thee, what Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8804)

unto you.

10:16

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his uncle
<01730>_,

He told
<05046> (8689)

us plainly
<05046> (8687)

that the asses
<0860>

were found
<04672> (8738)_.

But of the matter
<01697>

of the kingdom
<04410>_,

whereof Samuel
<08050>

spake
<0559> (8804)_,

he told
<05046> (8689)

him not.

10:17

And Samuel
<08050>

called
<06817> (8686)

the people
<05971>

together unto the LORD
<03068>

to Mizpeh
<04709>_;

10:18

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

I brought up
<05927> (8689)

Israel
<03478>

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

and delivered
<05337> (8686)

you out of the hand
<03027>

of the Egyptians
<04714>_,

and out of the hand
<03027>

of all kingdoms
<04467>_,

[and] of them that oppressed
<03905> (8801)

you:

10:19

And ye have this day
<03117>

rejected
<03988> (8804)

your God
<0430>_,

who himself saved
<03467> (8688)

you out of all your adversities
<07451>

and your tribulations
<06869>_;

and ye have said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, [Nay], but set
<07760> (8799)

a king
<04428>

over us. Now therefore present
<03320> (8690)

yourselves before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

by your tribes
<07626>_,

and by your thousands
<0505>_.

10:20

And when Samuel
<08050>

had caused all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>

to come near
<07126> (8686)_,

the tribe
<07626>

of Benjamin
<01144>

was taken
<03920> (8735)_.

10:21

When he had caused the tribe
<07626>

of Benjamin
<01144>

to come near
<07126> (8686)

by their families
<04940>_,

the family
<04940>

of Matri
<04309>

was taken
<03920> (8735)_,

and Saul
<07586>

the son
<01121>

of Kish
<07027>

was taken
<03920> (8735)_:

and when they sought
<01245> (8762)

him, he could not be found
<04672> (8738)_.

10:22

Therefore they enquired
<07592> (8799)

of the LORD
<03068>

further, if the man
<0376>

should yet come
<0935> (8804)

thither
<01988>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

answered
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, he hath hid
<02244> (8737)

himself among the stuff
<03627>_.

10:23

And they ran
<07323> (8799)

and fetched
<03947> (8799)

him thence: and when he stood
<03320> (8691)

among
<08432>

the people
<05971>_,

he was higher
<01361> (8799)

than any of the people
<05971>

from his shoulders
<07926>

and upward
<04605>_.

10:24

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

to all the people
<05971>_,

See
<07200> (8804)

ye him whom the LORD
<03068>

hath chosen
<0977> (8804)_,

that [there is] none like him among all the people
<05971>_?

And all the people
<05971>

shouted
<07321> (8686)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

God save
<02421> (8799)

the king
<04428>_.

{God...: Heb. Let the king live}

10:25

Then Samuel
<08050>

told
<01696> (8762)

the people
<05971>

the manner
<04941>

of the kingdom
<04410>_,

and wrote
<03789> (8799)

[it] in a book
<05612>_,

and laid [it] up
<03240> (8686)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

sent
<07971> (0)

all the people
<05971>

away
<07971> (8762)_,

every man
<0376>

to his house
<01004>_.

10:26

And Saul
<07586>

also went
<01980> (8804)

home
<01004>

to Gibeah
<01390>_;

and there went
<03212> (8799)

with him a band of men
<02428>_,

whose hearts
<03820>

God
<0430>

had touched
<05060> (8804)_.

10:27

But the children
<01121>

of Belial
<01100>

said
<0559> (8804)_,

How shall this man save
<03467> (8686)

us? And they despised
<0959> (8799)

him, and brought
<0935> (8689)

him no presents
<04503>_.

But he held his peace
<02790> (8688)_.

{held...: or, was as though he had been deaf}
