Saul Confirmed as King

¹² The people then said to Samuel, “Who^(A) was it that asked, ‘Shall Saul reign over us?’ Turn these men over to us so that we may put them to death.”

²⁷ But some scoundrels^(A) said, “How can this fellow save us?” They despised him and brought him no gifts.^(B) But Saul kept silent.

²⁷ But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”
