Pinapunta kay Jesse si Samuel

16 Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Samuel, “Hanggang kailan ka malulungkot para kay Saul? Itinakwil ko na siya bilang hari ng Israel. Ngayo'y magdala ka ng langis at pumunta ka kay Jesse na taga-Bethlehem sapagkat pinili ko upang maging hari ang isa sa kanyang mga anak.”

Sumagot si Samuel, “Paano ako pupunta roon? Tiyak na papatayin ako ni Saul kapag nalaman niya ang dahilan ng pagpunta ko roon.”

Sinabi ni Yahweh, “Magdala ka ng isang dumalagang baka at sabihin mong maghahandog ka kay Yahweh. Anyayahan mo si Jesse sa paghahandog at ituturo ko sa iyo kung ano ang gagawin mo at kung sino ang papahiran mo ng langis.”

Samuel Anoints David

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

But Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears about it, he will kill me.”

The Lord said, “Take a heifer with you and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to the Lord.’ Invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show(F) you what to do. You are to anoint(G) for me the one I indicate.”

And Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me.”

But the Lord said, “Take a heifer with you, and say, (E)‘I have come to sacrifice to the Lord.’ Then invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do; you shall anoint for Me the one I name to you.”
