1 Samuel 10:18-20

Common English Bible

¹⁸ Then he told the Israelites: “This is what the Lord God of Israel says: I brought Israel up out of Egypt, and I delivered you from the Egyptians’ power and from the power of all the kingdoms that oppressed you. ¹⁹ But today you’ve rejected your God who saved you from all your troubles and difficulties by saying, ‘No! Appoint a king over us!’ So now assemble yourselves before the Lord by your tribes and clans.”

²⁰ Then Samuel brought all the Israelite tribes forward, and the tribe of Benjamin was selected.
