1ΚΑΙ ἔλαβε Σαμουὴλ τὸν φακὸν τοῦ ἐλαίου καὶ ἐπέχεεν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐφίλησεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· οὐχὶ κέκχρικέ σε Κύριος εἰς ἄρχοντα ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ; καὶ σὺ ἄρξεις ἐν λαῷ Κυρίου, καὶ σὺ σώσεις αὐτὸν ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν.
1Then Samuel took a flask of oil, poured it on Saul’s head, kissed him, and said, “Has not the LORD anointed you ruler over His inheritance?
2καὶ τοῦτό σοι τὸ σημεῖον ὅτι ἔχρισέ σε Κύριος ἐπὶ κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ εἰς ἄρχοντα· ὡς ἂν ἀπέλθῃς σήμερον ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ, καὶ εὑρήσεις δύο ἄνδρας πρὸς τοῖς τάφοις Ραχὴλ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Βενιαμὶν ἁλλομένους μεγάλα, καὶ ἐροῦσί σοι· εὕρηνται αἱ ὄνοι, ἃς ἐπορεύθητε ζητεῖν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ πατήρ σου ἀποτετίνακται τὸ ρῆμα τῶν ὄνων καὶ ἐδαψιλεύσατο δι᾿ ὑμᾶς λέγων· τί ποιήσω ὑπὲρ τοῦ υἱοῦ μου;
2When you leave me today, you will find two men at Rachel’s tomb in Zelzah on the border of Benjamin. They will say to you, ‘The donkeys you seek have been found, and now your father has stopped worrying about the donkeys and started worrying about you, asking, “What should I do about my son?”’
3καὶ ἀπελεύσῃ ἐκεῖθεν καὶ ἐπέκεινα ἥξεις ἕως τῆς δρυὸς Θαβὼρ καὶ εὑρήσεις ἐκεῖ τρεῖς ἄνδρας ἀναβαίνοντας πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν εἰς Βαιθήλ, ἕνα αἴροντα τρία αἰγίδια καὶ ἕνα αἴροντα τρία ἀγγεῖα ἄρτων καὶ ἕνα αἴροντα ἀσκὸν οἴνου.
3Then you will go on from there until you come to the Oak of Tabor. Three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you there, one carrying three young goats, another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a skin of wine.
4καὶ ἐρωτήσουσί σε τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην καὶ δώσουσί σοι δύο ἀπαρχὰς ἄρτων, καὶ λήψῃ ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῶν.
4They will greet you and give you two loaves of bread, which you will accept from their hands.
5καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα εἰσελεύσῃ εἰς τὸν βουνὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ, οὗ ἐστιν ἐκεῖ τὸ ἀνάστημα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων, ἐκεῖ Νασὶβ ὁ ἀλλόφυλος. καὶ ἔσται ὡς ἂν εἰσέλθητε ἐκεῖ εἰς τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἀπαντήσεις χορῷ προφητῶν καταβαινόντων ἐκ τῆς Βαμᾶ, καὶ ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν νάβλα καὶ τύμπανον καὶ αὐλὸς καὶ κινύρα, καὶ αὐτοὶ προφητεύοντες·
5After that you will come to Gibeah of God, where the Philistines have an outpost. As you approach the city, you will meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place, preceded by harps, tambourines, flutes, and lyres, and they will be prophesying.
6καὶ ἐφαλεῖται ἐπὶ σὲ πνεῦμα Κυρίου, καὶ προφητεύσεις μετ᾿ αὐτῶν καὶ στραφήσῃ εἰς ἄνδρα ἄλλον.
6Then the Spirit of the LORD will rush upon you, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be transformed into a different person.
7καὶ ἔσται ὅταν ἥξει τὰ σημεῖα ταῦτα ἐπὶ σέ, ποίει πάντα, ὅσα ἐὰν εὕρῃ ἡ χείρ σου, ὅτι Θεὸς μετὰ σοῦ.
7When these signs have come, do as the occasion demands, for God is with you.
8καὶ καταβήσῃ ἔμπροσθεν τῆς Γαλγάλ, καὶ ἰδοὺ καταβαίνω πρός σε ἀνενεγκεῖν ὁλοκαύτωσιν καὶ θυσίας εἰρηνικάς· ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας διαλείψεις ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν με πρός σε, καὶ γνωρίσω σοι ἃ ποιήσεις.
8And you shall go before me to Gilgal, and surely I will come to you to offer burnt offerings and to sacrifice peace offerings. Wait seven days until I come to you and show you what you are to do.”
9καὶ ἐγενήθη ὥστε ἐπιστραφῆναι τῷ ὤμῳ αὐτοῦ ἀπελθεῖν ἀπὸ Σαμουήλ, μετέστρεψεν αὐτῷ ὁ Θεὸς καρδίαν ἄλλην· καὶ ἦλθε πάντα τὰ σημεῖα ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ.
9As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed Saul’s heart, and all the signs came to pass that day.
10καὶ ἔρχεται ἐκεῖθεν εἰς τὸν βουνόν, καὶ ἰδοὺ χορὸς προφητῶν ἐξεναντίας αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἥλατο ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν πνεῦμα Θεοῦ, καὶ προεφήτευσεν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν.
10When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met him. Then the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he prophesied along with them.
11καὶ ἐγενήθησαν πάντες οἱ εἰδότες αὐτὸν ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτης καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἐν μέσῳ τῶν προφητῶν. καὶ εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ· τί τοῦτο τὸ γεγονὸς τῷ υἱῷ Κίς; ἦ καὶ Σαοὺλ ἐν προφήταις;
11All those who had formerly known Saul and saw him prophesying with the prophets asked one another, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
12καὶ ἀπεκρίθη τις αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπε· καὶ τίς πατὴρ αὐτοῦ; καὶ διὰ τοῦτο ἐγενήθη εἰς παραβολήν, ἦ καὶ Σαοὺλ ἐν προφήταις;
12Then a man who lived there replied, “And who is their father?” So the saying became a proverb: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
13καὶ συνετέλεσε προφητεύων καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς τὸν βουνόν.
13And when Saul had finished prophesying, he went up to the high place.
14καὶ εἶπεν ὁ οἰκεῖος αὐτοῦ πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ πρὸς τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ· ποῦ ἐπορεύθητε; καὶ εἶπαν· ζητεῖν τὰς ὄνους· καὶ εἴδαμεν ὅτι οὐκ εἰσί, καὶ εἰσήλθομεν πρὸς Σαμουήλ.
14Now Saul’s uncle asked him and his servant, “Where did you go?” “To look for the donkeys,” Saul replied. “When we saw they were not to be found, we went to Samuel.”
15καὶ εἶπεν ὁ οἰκεῖος πρὸς Σαούλ· ἀπάγγειλον δή μοι, τί εἶπέ σοι Σαμουήλ;
15“Tell me,” Saul’s uncle asked, “what did Samuel say to you?”
16καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ πρὸς τὸν οἰκεῖον αὐτοῦ· ἀπήγγειλεν ἀπαγγέλλων μοι ὅτι εὕρηνται αἱ ὄνοι. τὸ δὲ ρῆμα τῆς βασιλείας οὐκ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ.
16And Saul replied, “He assured us that the donkeys had been found.” But Saul did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about the kingship.
17Καὶ παρήγγειλε Σαμουὴλ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ πρὸς Κύριον εἰς Μασσηφὰθ
17After this, Samuel summoned the people to the LORD at Mizpah
18καὶ εἶπε πρὸς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ· τάδε εἶπε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ λέγων· ἐγὼ ἀνήγαγον τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐξ Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐξειλάμην ὑμᾶς ἐκ χειρὸς Φαραὼ βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐκ πασῶν τῶν βασιλειῶν τῶν θλιβουσῶν ὑμᾶς·
18and said to the Israelites, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I brought Israel up out of Egypt, and I rescued you from the hands of the Egyptians and of all the kingdoms that oppressed you.’
19καὶ ὑμεῖς σήμερον ἐξουδενήκατε τὸν Θεόν, ὃς αὐτός ἐστιν ὑμῶν σωτὴρ ἐκ πάντων τῶν κακῶν ὑμῶν καὶ θλίψεων ὑμῶν, καὶ εἴπατε· οὐχί, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ ὅτι βασιλέα καταστήσεις ἐφ᾿ ἡμῶν· καὶ νῦν κατάστητε ἐνώπιον Κυρίου κατὰ τὰ σκῆπτρα ὑμῶν καὶ κατὰ τὰς φυλὰς ὑμῶν.
19But today you have rejected your God, who saves you from all your troubles and afflictions, and you have said to Him, ‘No, set a king over us.’ Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes and clans.”
20καὶ προσήγαγε Σαμουὴλ πάντα τὰ σκῆπτρα Ἰσραήλ, καὶ κατακληροῦται σκῆπτρον Βενιαμίν·
20Thus Samuel had all the tribes of Israel come forward, and the tribe of Benjamin was selected.
21καὶ προσάγει σκῆπτρον Βενιαμὶν εἰς φυλάς, καὶ κατακληροῦται φυλὴ Ματταρί· καὶ προσάγουσι τὴν φυλὴν Ματταρὶ εἰς ἄνδρας, καὶ κατακληροῦται Σαοὺλ υἱὸς Κίς. καὶ ἐζήτει αὐτόν, καὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκετο.
21Then he had the tribe of Benjamin come forward by its clans, and the clan of Matri was selected. Finally, Saul son of Kish was selected. But when they looked for him, they could not find him.
22καὶ ἐπηρώτησε Σαμουὴλ ἔτι ἐν Κυρίῳ· εἰ ἔρχεται ὁ ἀνὴρ ἐνταῦθα; καὶ εἶπε Κύριος· ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς κέκρυπται ἐν τοῖς σκεύεσι.
22So again they inquired of the LORD, “Has the man come here yet?” And the LORD replied, “Behold, he has hidden himself among the baggage.”
23καὶ ἔδραμε καὶ λαμβάνει αὐτὸν ἐκεῖθεν καὶ κατέστησεν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ ὑψώθη ὑπὲρ πάντα τὸν λαὸν ὑπερωμίαν καὶ ἐπάνω.
23So they ran and brought Saul, and when he stood among the people, he was a head taller than any of the others.
24καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς πάντα τὸν λαόν· εἰ ἑωράκατε ὃν ἐκλέλεκται ἑαυτῷ Κύριος, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ὅμοιος αὐτῷ ἐν πᾶσιν ὑμῖν; καὶ ἔγνωσαν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς καὶ εἶπαν· ζήτω ὁ βασιλεύς.
24Samuel said to all the people, “Do you see the one the LORD has chosen? There is no one like him among all the people.” And all the people shouted, “Long live the king!”
25καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τὸ δικαίωμα τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἔγραψεν ἐν βιβλίῳ καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου. καὶ ἐξαπέστειλε Σαμουὴλ πάντα τὸν λαόν, καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ.
25Then Samuel explained to the people the rights of kingship. He wrote them on a scroll and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, each to his own home.
26καὶ Σαοὺλ ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ εἰς Γαβαά· καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν υἱοὶ δυνάμεων, ὧν ἥψατο Κύριος καρδίας αὐτῶν μετὰ Σαούλ.
26Saul also went to his home in Gibeah, and the men of valor whose hearts God had touched went with him.
27καὶ υἱοὶ λοιμοὶ εἶπαν· τίς σώσει ὑμᾶς οὗτος; καὶ ἠτίμασαν αὐτὸν καὶ οὐκ ἤνεγκαν αὐτῷ δῶρα.
27But some worthless men said, “How can this man save us?” So they despised him and brought him no gifts; but Saul remained silent about it.
