Make images of your tumors and of the rats that are ravaging the land. Give glory to the God of Israel, and perhaps He will lift His hand from you and your gods and your land.
Read word by wordWhy harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened theirs? When He afflicted them, did they not send the people out so they could go on their way?
Read word by wordNow, therefore, prepare one new cart with two milk cows that have never been yoked. Hitch the cows to the cart, but take their calves away and pen them up.
Read word by wordTake the ark of the LORD, set it on the cart, and in a chest beside it put the gold objects you are sending back to Him as a guilt offering. Then send the ark on its way,
Read word by wordbut keep watching it. If it goes up the road to its homeland, toward Beth-shemesh, it is the LORD who has brought on us this great disaster. But if it does not, then we will know that it was not His hand that punished us and that it happened by chance.”
Read word by wordSo the men did as instructed. They took two milk cows, hitched them to the cart, and penned up their calves.
Read word by wordThen they put the ark of the LORD on the cart, along with the chest containing the gold rats and the images of the tumors.
Read word by wordNow the people of Beth-shemesh were harvesting wheat in the valley, and when they looked up and saw the ark, they were overjoyed at the sight.
Read word by wordThe cart came to the field of Joshua of Beth-shemesh and stopped there near a large rock. The people chopped up the cart and offered the cows as a burnt offering to the LORD.
Read word by wordAnd the Levites took down the ark of the LORD and the chest containing the gold objects, and they placed them on the large rock. That day the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and made sacrifices to the LORD.
Read word by wordThe number of gold rats also corresponded to the number of Philistine cities belonging to the five rulers—the fortified cities and their outlying villages. And the large rock on which they placed the ark of the LORD stands to this day in the field of Joshua of Beth-shemesh.
Read word by wordSo they sent messengers to the people of Kiriath-jearim, saying, “The Philistines have returned the ark of the LORD. Come down and take it up with you.”
Read word by wordThen the men of Kiriath-jearim came for the ark of the LORD and took it into Abinadab’s house on the hill. And they consecrated his son Eleazar to guard the ark of the LORD.
Read word by wordThen Samuel said to all the house of Israel, “If you are returning to the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the foreign gods and Ashtoreths among you, prepare your hearts for the LORD, and serve Him only. And He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines.”
Read word by wordSo the Israelites put away the Baals and Ashtoreths and served only the LORD.
Read word by wordThen Samuel said, “Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD on your behalf.”
Read word by wordWhen they had gathered at Mizpah, they drew water and poured it out before the LORD. On that day they fasted, and there they confessed, “We have sinned against the LORD.” And Samuel judged the Israelites at Mizpah.
Read word by wordThen the men of Israel charged out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, striking them down all the way to an area below Beth-car.
Read word by wordAfterward, Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far the LORD has helped us.”
Read word by wordThe cities from Ekron to Gath, which the Philistines had taken, were restored to Israel, who also delivered the surrounding territory from the hand of the Philistines. And there was peace between the Israelites and the Amorites.
Read word by wordSo Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
Read word by wordEvery year he would go on a circuit from Bethel to Gilgal to Mizpah, judging Israel in all these places.
Read word by wordThen he would return to Ramah because his home was there, and there he judged Israel and built an altar to the LORD.
Read word by wordWhen Samuel grew old, he appointed his sons as judges over Israel.
Read word by wordAnd the LORD said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you. For it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected Me as their king.
Read word by wordJust as they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt until this day, forsaking Me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you.
Read word by wordSo Samuel spoke all the words of the LORD to the people who were asking him for a king.
Read word by wordHe said, “This will be the manner of the king who will reign over you: He will take your sons and appoint them to serve his own chariots and horses, and to run in front of his chariots.
Read word by wordAnd he will take your daughters to be perfumers, cooks, and bakers.
Read word by wordHe will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his servants.
Read word by wordAnd he will take your menservants and maidservants and your best cattle and donkeys and put them to his own use.
Read word by wordWhen that day comes, you will beg for relief from the king you have chosen, but the LORD will not answer you on that day.”
Read word by wordThen we will be like all the other nations, with a king to judge us, to go out before us, and to fight our battles.”
Read word by wordSamuel listened to all the words of the people and repeated them in the hearing of the LORD.
Read word by wordOne day the donkeys of Saul’s father Kish wandered off, and Kish said to his son Saul, “Take one of the servants and go look for the donkeys.”
Read word by word“Look,” said the servant, “in this city there is a man of God who is highly respected; everything he says surely comes to pass. Let us go there now. Perhaps he will tell us which way to go.”
Read word by wordThe servant answered him again. “Look,” he said, “I have here in my hand a quarter shekel of silver. I will give it to the man of God, and he will tell us our way.”
Read word by word“Yes, he is ahead of you,” they answered. “Hurry now, for today he has come to the city because the people have a sacrifice on the high place.
Read word by wordAs soon as you enter the city, you will find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. The people will not eat until he comes, because he must bless the sacrifice; after that, the guests will eat. Go up at once; you will find him.”
Read word by wordNow on the day before Saul’s arrival, the LORD had revealed to Samuel,
Read word by word“At this time tomorrow I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin, and you are to anoint him ruler over My people Israel; he will save them from the hand of the Philistines. For I have looked upon My people, because their cry has come to Me.”
Read word by wordWhen Samuel saw Saul, the LORD told him, “Here is the man of whom I spoke; he shall rule over My people.”
Read word by wordSaul approached Samuel in the gateway and asked, “Would you please tell me where the seer’s house is?”
Read word by word“I am the seer,” Samuel replied. “Go up before me to the high place, for you shall eat with me today. And when I send you off in the morning, I will tell you all that is in your heart.
Read word by wordAs for the donkeys you lost three days ago, do not worry about them, for they have been found. And upon whom is all the desire of Israel, if not upon you and all your father’s house?”
Read word by wordThen Samuel took Saul and his servant, brought them into the hall, and seated them in the place of honor among those who were invited—about thirty in all.
Read word by wordAnd Samuel said to the cook, “Bring the portion I gave you and told you to set aside.”
Read word by wordSo the cook picked up the leg and what was attached to it and set it before Saul. Then Samuel said, “Here is what was kept back. It was set apart for you. Eat, for it has been kept for you for this occasion, from the time I said, ‘I have invited the people.’” So Saul dined with Samuel that day.
Read word by wordAs they were going down to the edge of the city, Samuel said to Saul, “Tell the servant to go on ahead of us, but you stay for a while, and I will reveal to you the word of God.” So the servant went on.
Read word by wordThen 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?
