1 Samuel 16:6-13

16:6

And it came to pass, when they were come
<0935> (8800)_,

that he looked
<07200> (8799)

on Eliab
<0446>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely the LORD'S
<03068>

anointed
<04899>

[is] before him. {Eliab: called Elihu}

16:7

But the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Samuel
<08050>_,

Look
<05027> (8686)

not on his countenance
<04758>_,

or on the height
<01364>

of his stature
<06967>_;

because I have refused
<03988> (8804)

him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man
<0120>

seeth
<07200> (8799)_;

for man
<0120>

looketh
<07200> (8799)

on the outward appearance
<05869>_,

but the LORD
<03068>

looketh
<07200> (8799)

on the heart
<03824>_.

{outward...: Heb. eyes}

16:8

Then Jesse
<03448>

called
<07121> (8799)

Abinadab
<041>_,

and made him pass
<05674> (8686)

before
<06440>

Samuel
<08050>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Neither hath the LORD
<03068>

chosen
<0977> (8804)

this.

16:9

Then Jesse
<03448>

made Shammah
<08048>

to pass by
<05674> (8686)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Neither hath the LORD
<03068>

chosen
<0977> (8804)

this. {Shammah: Shimeah, also called, Shimma}

16:10

Again, Jesse
<03448>

made seven
<07651>

of his sons
<01121>

to pass
<05674> (8686)

before
<06440>

Samuel
<08050>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jesse
<03448>_,

The LORD
<03068>

hath not chosen
<0977> (8804)

these.

16:11

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jesse
<03448>_,

Are here all
<08552> (8804)

[thy] children
<05288>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

There remaineth
<07604> (8804)

yet the youngest
<06996>_,

and, behold, he keepeth
<07462> (8802)

the sheep
<06629>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jesse
<03448>_,

Send
<07971> (8798)

and fetch
<03947> (8798)

him: for we will not sit down
<05437> (8799)

till he come
<0935> (8800)

hither
<06311>_.

{down: Heb. round}

16:12

And he sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and brought him in
<0935> (8686)_.

Now he [was] ruddy
<0132>_,

[and] withal
<05973>

of a beautiful
<03303>

countenance
<05869>_,

and goodly
<02896>

to look to
<07210>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

anoint
<04886> (8798)

him: for this [is] he. {of a...: Heb. fair of eyes}

16:13

Then Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

the horn
<07161>

of oil
<08081>_,

and anointed
<04886> (8799)

him in the midst
<07130>

of his brethren
<0251>_:

and the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

came
<06743> (8799)

upon David
<01732>

from that day
<03117>

forward
<04605>_.

So Samuel
<08050>

rose up
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Ramah
<07414>_.

1 Samuel 16:2

16:2

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

How can I go
<03212> (8799)_?

if Saul
<07586>

hear
<08085> (8804)

[it], he will kill
<02026> (8804)

me. And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Take
<03947> (8799)

an heifer
<01241> <05697>

with thee
<03027>_,

and say
<0559> (8804)_,

I am come
<0935> (8804)

to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

to the LORD
<03068>_.

{with thee: Heb. in thine hand}

1 Samuel 7:8-16

7:8

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Samuel
<08050>_,

Cease
<02790> (8686)

not to cry
<02199> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

for us, that he will save
<03467> (8686)

us out of the hand
<03027>

of the Philistines
<06430>_.

{Cease...: Heb. Be not silent from us from crying}

7:9

And Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

a
<0259>

sucking
<02461>

lamb
<02924>_,

and offered
<05927> (8686)

[it for] a burnt offering
<05930>

wholly
<03632>

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

and Samuel
<08050>

cried
<02199> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

for Israel
<03478>_;

and the LORD
<03068>

heard
<06030> (8799)

him. {heard: or, answered}

7:10

And as Samuel
<08050>

was offering up
<05927> (8688)

the burnt offering
<05930>_,

the Philistines
<06430>

drew near
<05066> (8738)

to battle
<04421>

against Israel
<03478>_:

but the LORD
<03068>

thundered
<07481> (8686)

with a great
<01419>

thunder
<06963>

on that day
<03117>

upon the Philistines
<06430>_,

and discomfited
<02000> (8799)

them; and they were smitten
<05062> (8735)

before
<06440>

Israel
<03478>_.

7:11

And the men
<0582>

of Israel
<03478>

went out
<03318> (8799)

of Mizpeh
<04709>_,

and pursued
<07291> (8799)

the Philistines
<06430>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

them, until [they came] under Bethcar
<01033>_.

7:12

Then Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

a
<0259>

stone
<068>_,

and set
<07760> (8799)

[it] between Mizpeh
<04709>

and Shen
<08129>_,

and called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of it Ebenezer
<072>_,

saying
<0559> (8799)_,

Hitherto hath the LORD
<03068>

helped
<05826> (8804)

us. {Ebenezer: that is, The stone of help}

7:13

So the Philistines
<06430>

were subdued
<03665> (8735)_,

and they came
<0935> (8800)

no more
<03254> (8804)

into the coast
<01366>

of Israel
<03478>_:

and the hand
<03027>

of the LORD
<03068>

was against the Philistines
<06430>

all the days
<03117>

of Samuel
<08050>_.

7:14

And the cities
<05892>

which the Philistines
<06430>

had taken
<03947> (8804)

from Israel
<03478>

were restored
<07725> (8799)

to Israel
<03478>_,

from Ekron
<06138>

even unto Gath
<01661>_;

and the coasts
<01366>

thereof did Israel
<03478>

deliver
<05337> (8689)

out of the hands
<03027>

of the Philistines
<06430>_.

And there was peace
<07965>

between Israel
<03478>

and the Amorites
<0567>_.

7:15

And Samuel
<08050>

judged
<08199> (8799)

Israel
<03478>

all the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_.

7:16

And he went
<01980> (8804)

from
<01767>

year
<08141>

to year
<08141>

in circuit
<05437> (8804)

to Bethel
<01008>_,

and Gilgal
<01537>_,

and Mizpeh
<04709>_,

and judged
<08199> (8804)

Israel
<03478>

in all those places
<04725>_.

{in circuit: Heb. and he circuited}

Psalms 78:68-72

78:68

But chose
<0977> (8799)

the tribe
<07626>

of Judah
<03063>_,

the mount
<02022>

Zion
<06726>

which he loved
<0157> (8804)_.

78:69

And he built
<01129> (8799)

his sanctuary
<04720>

like high
<07311> (8802)

[palaces], like the earth
<0776>

which he hath established
<03245> (8804)

for ever
<05769>_.

{established: Heb. founded}

78:70

He chose
<0977> (8799)

David
<01732>

also his servant
<05650>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

him from the sheepfolds
<04356> <06629>_:

78:71

From following
<0310>

the ewes great with young
<05763> (8802)

he brought
<0935> (8689)

him to feed
<07462> (8800)

Jacob
<03290>

his people
<05971>_,

and Israel
<03478>

his inheritance
<05159>_.

{following: Heb. after}

78:72

So he fed
<07462> (8686)

them according to the integrity
<08537>

of his heart
<03824>_;

and guided
<05148> (8686)

them by the skilfulness
<08394>

of his hands
<03709>_.

Psalms 89:16-27

89:16

In thy name
<08034>

shall they rejoice
<01523> (8799)

all the day
<03117>_:

and in thy righteousness
<06666>

shall they be exalted
<07311> (8799)_.

89:17

For thou [art] the glory
<08597>

of their strength
<05797>_:

and in thy favour
<07522>

our horn
<07161>

shall be exalted
<07311> (8799) (8675) <07311> (8686)_.

89:18

For the LORD
<03068>

[is] our defence
<04043>_;

and the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>

[is] our king
<04428>_.

{the LORD...: or, our shield is of the LORD, and our king is of the Holy One of Israel}

89:19

Then thou spakest
<01696> (8765)

in vision
<02377>

to thy holy one
<02623>_,

and saidst
<0559> (8799)_,

I have laid
<07737> (8765)

help
<05828>

upon [one that is] mighty
<01368>_;

I have exalted
<07311> (8689)

[one] chosen
<0977> (8803)

out of the people
<05971>_.

89:20

I have found
<04672> (8804)

David
<01732>

my servant
<05650>_;

with my holy
<06944>

oil
<08081>

have I anointed
<04886> (8804)

him:

89:21

With whom my hand
<03027>

shall be established
<03559> (8735)_:

mine arm
<02220>

also shall strengthen
<0553> (8762)

him.

89:22

The enemy
<0341> (8802)

shall not exact
<05378> (8686)

upon him; nor the son
<01121>

of wickedness
<05766>

afflict
<06031> (8762)

him.

89:23

And I will beat down
<03807> (8804)

his foes
<06862>

before his face
<06440>_,

and plague
<05062> (8799)

them that hate
<08130> (8764)

him.

89:24

But my faithfulness
<0530>

and my mercy
<02617>

[shall be] with him: and in my name
<08034>

shall his horn
<07161>

be exalted
<07311> (8799)_.

89:25

I will set
<07760> (8804)

his hand
<03027>

also in the sea
<03220>_,

and his right hand
<03225>

in the rivers
<05104>_.

89:26

He shall cry
<07121> (8799)

unto me, Thou [art] my father
<01>_,

my God
<0410>_,

and the rock
<06697>

of my salvation
<03444>_.

89:27

Also I will make
<05414> (8799)

him [my] firstborn
<01060>_,

higher
<05945>

than the kings
<04428>

of the earth
<0776>_.
