Parallel
1 Samuel 10
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐφίλησεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῶ κέχρικέν σε κύριος εἰς ἄρχοντα ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ ; καὶ σὺ ἄρξεις ἐν λῆ κυρίου, καὶ σὺ σώσεις αὐτὸν ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν.
Then 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 (note: Hebrew; LXX “Has not the LORD anointed you ruler over Israel? And you will rule over the LORD’s people and save them from their enemies around them. This will be the sign to you that the LORD has appointed you to be leader over His inheritance.)?
καὶ τοῦτό σοι τὸ σημεῖον ὅτι ἔχρισέν σε κύριος ἐπὶ κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ εἰς ἄρχοντα· ὡς ἂν ἀπέλθῃς σήμερον ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ, καὶ εὑρήσεις δύο ἄνδρας πρὸς τοῖς τάφοις Ῥαχὴλ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Βενιαμεὶν ἀλλομένους μεγάλα, καὶ ἐροῦσίν σοι Εὕρηνται αἱ ὄνοι ἃς ζητεῖν· καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ πατήρ σου ἀποτετίνακται τὸ ῥῆμα τῶν ὄνων, καὶ ἐδαψιλεύσατο δι’ ὑμᾶς λέγων Τί ποιήσω ὑπὲρ τοῦ υἱοῦ μου ;
When 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?”’
καὶ ἀπελεύσει ἐκεῖθεν καὶ ἐπέκεινα ἥξεις ἕως τῆς δρυὸς Θαβώρ, 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·
Then you will go on from there until you come to the Oak (note: Or Terebinth or Great Tree) 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.
καὶ ἐρωτήσουσίν σε τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην καὶ δῶ σοι δύο ἀπαρχὰς ἄρτων, καὶ λήμψῃ ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῶν.
They will greet you and give you two loaves of bread, which you will accept from their hands.
κ ταῦτα εἰσελεύσῃ εἰς τὸν βουνὸν τοῦ θεοῦ, οὗ ἐστιν ἐκεῖ τὸ ἀνά τῶν ἀλλοφύλων, ἐκεῖ Νασεὶβ ὁ ἀλλόφυλος· καὶ ἔσται ὡς ἂν εἰσέλθητε ἐκεῖ εἰς τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἀπαντήσεις χορῷ προφητῶν καταβαινόντων ἐκ τῆς βᾶμά, καὶ ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν νάβαλ καὶ τύμπανον καὶ αὐλὸς καὶ κινύρα, καὶ αὐτοὶ προφητεύοντες·
After that you will come to Gibeah of God (note: Hebrew Gibeath-Elohim, meaning the hill 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.
καὶ ἐφαλεῖται ἐπὶ σὲ πνεῦμα Κυρίου καὶ προφητεύσεις μετ’ αὐτῶν, καὶ στραφήσῃ εἰς ἄνδρα ἄλλον.
Then the Spirit of the LORD will rush upon you, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be transformed into a different person.
καὶ ἔσται ὅταν ἥξει τὰ σημεῖα ταῦτα ἐπὶ σέ, ποίει πάντα ὅσα εὕρῃ ἡ χείρ σου, ὅτι θεὸς μετὰ σοῦ.
When these signs have come, do as the occasion demands, for God is with you.
καὶ καταβήσῃ ἔμπροσθεν τῆς Γαλαάδ, καὶ ἰδοὺ καταβαίνω πρὸς σὲ ἀνενεγκεῖν ὁλοκαύτωσιν καὶ θυσίας εἰρηνικάς· ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας διαλείψεις ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν με πρὸς σέ, καὶ γνωρίσω σοι ἃ ποιήσεις.
And 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.”
Καὶ ἐγενήθη ὥστε στραφῆναι τῷ ὤμῳ αὐτοῦ ἀπελθεῖν ἀπὸ Σαμουήλ, μετέστρεψεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς καρδίαν ἄλλην· καὶ ἦλθεν πάντα τὰ σημεῖα ἐν τῇ ἡμέρα ἐκείνῃ.
As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed Saul’s heart, and all the signs came to pass that day.
καὶ ἔρχεται ἐκεῖθεν εἰς τὸν βουνόν, καὶ ἰδοὺ χορὸς προφητῶν ἐξ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἥλατο ἐπ’ αὐτὸν πνεῦμα θεοῦ καὶ ἐπροφήτευσεν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν.
When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah (note: Gibeah means the hill.), a group of prophets met him. Then the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he prophesied along with them.
καὶ ἐγενήθησαν πάντες οἱ εἰδότες αὐτὸν ἐχθὲς τρίτην καὶ εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἐν μέσῳ τῶν προφητῶν· καὶ εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ Τί τοῦτο τὸ γεγονὸς τῷ υἱῷ Κείς ; ἢ καὶ Σαοὺλ ἐν προφήταις ;
When all those who had formerly known Saul saw him prophesying with the prophets, they asked one another, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
καὶ ἀπεκρίθη τις αὐτῶν εἶπεν καὶ τίς πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ; διὰ τοῦτο ἐγενήθη εἰς παραβολήν Ἢ καὶ Σαοὺλ ἐν προφήταις ;
Then a man who lived there replied, “And who is their father?” So the saying became a proverb: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
καὶ συνετέλεσεν προφητεύων, καὶ εἰς τὸν βουνόν.
And when Saul had finished prophesying, he went up to the high place.
Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ εἶπεν αὐτοῦ πρὸς αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ Ποῦ ἐπορεύθητε ; καὶ εἶπαν Ζητεῖν τὰς ὄνους· καὶ εἴδαμεν ὅτι οὐκ εἰσίν, καὶ εἰσήλθομεν πρὸς Σαμουήλ.
Now 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.”
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ οἰκεῖος πρὸς Σαούλ Ἀπάγγειλον δή μοι τί εἰπέν σοι Σαμουήλ.
“Tell me,” Saul’s uncle asked, “what did Samuel say to you?”
καὶ εἶπεν Σαοὺλ πρὸς τόν οἰκεῖον αὐτοῦ Ἀπήγγειλεν ἀπαγγέλλων μοι ὅτι εὕρηνται οἱ ὄνοι· τὸ δὲ ῥῆμα τῆς βασιλείας οὐκ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ.
And 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.
Καὶ παρήγγειλεν Σαμουὴλ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ πρὸς κύριον εἰς Μασσηφά,
After this, Samuel summoned the people to the LORD at Mizpah
καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς υἱούς Ἰσραήλ τάδε εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς λέγων Ἐγὼ ἀνήγαγον τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ τῶν βασιλείων τῶν θλιβουσων ὑμὰς.
and 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.’
καὶ ὑμεῖς σήμερον εξουθενηκατε κοτε τὸν θεόν, ὃς αὐτός ἐστιν ὑμῶν σωτὴρ ἐκ πάντων τῶν κακῶν ὑμῶν καὶ θλίψεων ὑμῶν, καὶ εἴπατε οὐχί, ἀλλ’ ἢ ὅτι βασιλέα στήσεις ἐφ’ ἡμῶν. καὶ νῦν κατάστητε ἐνώπιον κυρίου κατὰ τὰ σκῆπτρα ὑμῶν καὶ κατὰ τὰς φυλὰς ὑμῶν.
But 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.”
καὶ προσήγαγεν Σαμουὴλ πάντα τὰ σκῆπτρα Ἰσραήλ, καὶ κατακληροῦται σκῆπτρον Βενιαμείν·
Thus Samuel had all the tribes of Israel come forward, and the tribe of Benjamin was selected.
καὶ προσάγει σκῆπτρον Βενιαμεὶν εἰς φυλάς, καὶ κατακληροῦται φυλὴ Ματταρεί· καὶ προσάγουσιν τήν φυλὴν Ματταρεὶ εἰς ἄνδρας, καὶ κατακληροῦται Σαοὺλ υἱὸς Κείς. καὶ ἐζήτει αὐτόν, καὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκετο.
Then he had the tribe of Benjamin come forward by its clans, and the clan of Matri was selected (note: LXX includes And he brought the family of the Matrites near, man by man.). Finally, Saul son of Kish was selected. But when they looked for him, they could not find him.
καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν Σαμουὴλ ἔτι ἐν κυρίῳ Εἰ ἔρχεται ὁ ἀνὴρ ἐνταῦθα ; καὶ εἶπεν κύριος Ἴδου αὐτὸς κέκρυπται ἐν τοῖς σκεύεσιν.
So again they inquired of the LORD, “Has the man come here yet?” And the LORD replied, “Behold, he has hidden himself among the baggage.”
καὶ ἔδραμεν καὶ λαμβάνει αὐτὸν ἐκεῖθεν, καὶ κατέστησεν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ· καὶ ὑψώθη ὑπὲρ πάντα τὸν λαὸν ὑπερωμίαν καὶ ἐπάνω.
So they ran and brought Saul, and when he stood among the people, he was a head taller than any of the others.
καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουὴλ πρὸς πάντα τόν λαόν Εἰ ἑοράκατε ὃν ἐκλέλεκται ἑαυτῷ κύριος, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτῷ ὅμοιος ἐν πᾶσιν ὑμῖν ; καὶ ἔγνωσαν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς καὶ εἶπαν Σήτω ὁ βασιλεύς.
Samuel 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!”
Καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουὴλ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τὸ δικαίωμα τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἔγραψεν ἐν βιβλίῳ καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐνώπιον κυρίου· καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν Σαμουὴλ πάντα τὸν λαόν, καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ.
Then 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.
καὶ Σαοὺλ ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ εἰς Γαβαά· καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν υἱοὶ δυνάμεων ὧν ἥψατο κύριος καρδίας αὐτῶν μετὰ Σαούλ.
Saul also went to his home in Gibeah, and the men of valor whose hearts God had touched went with him.
καὶ υἱοὶ λοιμοὶ εἶπαν Τίς σώσει ἡμᾶς οὗτος ; καὶ ἠτίμασαν αὐτόν, καὶ οὐκ ἤνεγκον αὐτῷ δῶρα.
But 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.
