But when they looked for him, he was nowhere to be found.So they inquired again of the LORD,“ Has the man arrived here yet?” The LORD said,“ He has hidden himself among the equipment.”So they ran and brought him from there. When he took his position among the people, he stood head and shoulders above them all.Then Samuel said to all the people,“ Do you see the one whom the LORD has chosen? Indeed, there is no one like him among all the people!” All the people shouted out,“ Long live the king!”Then Samuel talked to the people about how the kingship would work. He wrote it all down on a scroll and set it before the LORD. Then Samuel sent all the people away to their homes.Even Saul went to his home in Gibeah. With him went some brave men whose hearts God had touched.But some wicked men said,“ How can this man save us?” They despised him and did not even bring him a gift. But Saul said nothing about it.
