耶和華對撒母耳說：「你為掃羅悲慟要到什麼時候呢？我已經厭棄他作以色列的王。你把犄角裝滿膏油，去吧，我要派遣你到伯利恆人耶西那裡，因為我在他的兒子中選定了一個王。」

耶和華謂撒母耳曰、我既棄掃羅、不使為以色列王、爾為之懷憂、伊於胡底、可盛膏於角而往、我將遣爾詣伯利恆人耶西、其眾子中、我簡其一為王、

耶和華謂撒母耳曰、掃羅為以色列王、我不永其祚、汝為懷憂、伊於何底。可盛膏於角、我將遣爾至伯利恆人耶西所、其眾子中我簡其一、立之為王。

謂撒母耳曰、爾為掃羅而憂、伊於何底、我已棄之、不容其為以色列王、今以膏盛於角、我將遣爾至伯利恆人耶西家、我於其眾子中選其一、立之為王、

The Lord said to Samuel,“ How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way; I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king.”

The Lord said to Samuel,“ How long will you be filled with sorrow because of Saul? I have refused to have him as king over Israel. Fill your animal horn with olive oil and go on your way. I am sending you to Jesse in Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king.”

The Lord said to Samuel,“ How long will you grieve over Saul, since I have rejected him from being king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have provided for myself a king among his sons.”

Now the Lord said to Samuel,“ You have mourned long enough for Saul. I have rejected him as king of Israel, so fill your flask with olive oil and go to Bethlehem. Find a man named Jesse who lives there, for I have selected one of his sons to be my king.”

The LORD said to Samuel,“ How long are you going to mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and go. I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem because I have selected for myself a king from his sons.”

撒母耳直到死的日子，再也沒有見掃羅，但撒母耳為掃羅悲慟。耶和華後悔立掃羅為以色列的王。

撒母耳對掃羅說：「你做了愚蠢的事！你沒有遵守耶和華你的神所吩咐你的誡命。不然，耶和華就會堅立你在以色列的王權到永遠了；但如今，你的王權不會長久了，耶和華已經為自己找到一個合乎他心意的人，耶和華任命這人作他子民的領袖，因為你不遵守耶和華吩咐你的。」

撒母耳拿了一瓶膏油，澆在掃羅頭上，然後親吻他，說：「耶和華不是已經膏立你為領袖掌管他的繼業嗎？

要知道，悖逆如同占卜的罪，頑梗就像拜偶像的惡。你既然厭棄耶和華的話，耶和華也厭棄你作王。」

「明天大約這個時候，我會從便雅憫地派遣一個人到你這裡，你要膏立他作我子民以色列的領袖。他將拯救我的子民脫離非利士人的手，因為我眷顧我的子民，他們的哀聲已經達到我這裡。」

又有以賽亞說：「將有耶西的根，就是興起來統治外邦人的那一位；外邦人要仰望他。」

猶大啊，你的兄弟們必稱讚你，你的手必壓住仇敵的頸項，你父親的眾子必向你下拜。猶大是只小獅子；我兒啊，你獵食而歸，屈身蹲伏，躺如公獅，臥如母獅，誰敢驚動你？權杖必不離開猶大，王杖必不離他兩腳之間，直到「細羅」來到，萬民都要歸順他。

撒母耳對掃羅說：「我不與你一同回去，因為你厭棄了耶和華的話，耶和華也厭棄你作以色列的王。」

鄰居的婦女們給孩子起名，說：「有一個兒子為娜娥米而生！」她們就給他起名為俄備得。俄備得是耶西的父親，耶西是大衛的父親。以下是法勒斯的譜系：法勒斯生希斯倫，希斯倫生蘭，蘭生亞米拿達，亞米拿達生拿順，拿順生撒門，撒門生波阿斯，波阿斯生俄備得，俄備得生耶西，耶西生大衛。

他卻揀選了猶大支派，他所愛的錫安山。他建造他的聖所如同高峰，又像他永遠建立的大地。他揀選了自己的僕人大衛，從羊圈中把他挑選出來，從所照顧的哺乳母羊當中把他帶出來，為要牧養自己的子民雅各，自己的繼業以色列。

看哪！我已經使他作萬民的見證人，作萬民的首領和發令者。

掃羅的臣僕們對他說：「看哪，是從神那裡來的禍害之靈在驚擾你。

「我後悔立掃羅為王了，因為他轉離不跟從我，也不執行我的命令。」撒母耳為此很苦惱，整夜向耶和華哀求。

從耶西的樹墩必發出一個嫩芽，從他的根而出的枝子必結果實。

那時你在異象中對你的忠信者宣告，說：「我幫助了一位勇士，高舉了那從民中所揀選的。我找到我的僕人大衛，用我聖潔的膏油膏抹了他。

到那日，耶西的根必立起，作萬民的旗幟；列國必尋求他，他安息之所必大有榮耀。

此後，他們要求立一個王，神就把便雅憫支派的一個人，基士的兒子掃羅給他們為王，共四十年。後來神廢除了掃羅，興起大衛做他們的王，並且為他見證說：『我找到了耶西的兒子大衛，一個合乎我心意的人，他將遵行我的一切旨意。』

每當從神那裡來的禍害之靈臨到掃羅時，大衛都會拿起豎琴用手彈奏，掃羅就會心裡寬暢、感覺舒服，那個靈也從他身上離開了。
