1 Samuel 10:24-26

International Standard Version

²⁴ Then Samuel told all the people, “Do you see the man whom the Lord has chosen? For there is no one like him among all the people.”

Then all the people shouted, “Long live the king!”

²⁵ Samuel explained to the people the regulations^[a] concerning kingship. He wrote them in a scroll and placed it in the Lord’s presence. Then Samuel sent all the people to their own houses. ²⁶ Saul also went to his house in Gibeah, and the soldiers^[b] whose hearts God had touched went with him.
