Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.1 Samuel 15:1 · שְׁמוּאֵל֙Samuel said to Saul, “Yahweh sent me to anoint you to be king over his people, over Israel. Now therefore listen to the voice of the words of Yahweh.1 Samuel 15:10 · שְׁמוּאֵ֖לThen the word of Yahweh came to Samuel, saying,1 Samuel 15:11 · לִשְׁמוּאֵ֔ל“It grieves me that I have set up Saul to be king; for he is turned back from following me, and has not performed my commandments.” Samuel was angry; and he cried to Yahweh all night.1 Samuel 15:12 · שְׁמוּאֵ֛ל · לִשְׁמוּאֵ֜לSamuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning; and it was told Samuel, saying, “Saul came to Carmel, and behold, he set up a monument for himself, and turned, and passed on, and went down to Gilgal.”1 Samuel 15:13 · שְׁמוּאֵ֖לSamuel came to Saul; and Saul said to him, “You are blessed by Yahweh!

Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite; for I have provided a king for myself among his sons.”1 Samuel 16:2 · שְׁמוּאֵל֙Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me.” Yahweh said, “Take a heifer with you, and say, I have come to sacrifice to Yahweh.1 Samuel 16:4 · שְׁמוּאֵ֗לSamuel did that which Yahweh spoke, and came to Bethlehem. The elders of the city came to meet him trembling, and said, “Do you come peaceably?”1 Samuel 16:7 · שְׁמוּאֵ֗לBut Yahweh said to Samuel, “Don’t look on his face, or on the height of his stature; because I have rejected him: for I see not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart.”1 Samuel 16:8 · שְׁמוּאֵ֑לThen Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, “Neither has Yahweh chosen this one.”1 Samuel 16:10 · שְׁמוּאֵ֑ל · שְׁמוּאֵל֙Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. Samuel said to Jesse, “Yahweh has not chosen these.”1 Samuel 16:11 · שְׁמוּאֵ֣ל · שְׁמוּאֵ֤לSamuel said to Jesse, “Are all your children here?” He said, “There remains yet the youngest, and behold, he is keeping the sheep.” Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and get him; for we will not sit down until he comes here.”1 Samuel 16:13 · שְׁמוּאֵ֜ל · שְׁמוּאֵ֔לThen Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brothers: and the Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.1 Samuel 19:18 · שְׁמוּאֵל֙ · וּשְׁמוּאֵ֔לNow David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. He and Samuel went and lived in Naioth.1 Samuel 19:20 · וּשְׁמוּאֵ֕לSaul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, the Spirit of God came on the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.1 Samuel 19:22 · שְׁמוּאֵ֖לThen went he also to Ramah, and came to the great well that is in Secu: and he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” One said, “Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.”1 Samuel 19:24 · שְׁמוּאֵ֔לHe also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”1 Samuel 25:1 · שְׁמוּאֵ֔לSamuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.1 Samuel 28:3 · וּשְׁמוּאֵ֣לNow Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. Saul had put away those who had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.1 Samuel 28:11 · שְׁמוּאֵ֖לThen the woman said, “Whom shall I bring up to you?” He said, “Bring Samuel up for me.”1 Samuel 28:12 · שְׁמוּאֵ֔לWhen the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice; and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, “Why have you deceived me? For you are Saul!”1 Samuel 28:14 · שְׁמוּאֵ֣לHe said to her, “What does he look like?” She said, “An old man comes up. He is covered with a robe.” Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and showed respect.1 Samuel 28:15 · שְׁמוּאֵל֙Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disturbed me, to bring me up?” Saul answered, “I am very distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God has departed from me, and answers me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams. Therefore I have called you, that you may make known to me what I shall do.”1 Samuel 28:16 · שְׁמוּאֵ֔לSamuel said, “Why then do you ask of me, since Yahweh has departed from you and has become your adversary?1 Samuel 28:20 · שְׁמוּאֵ֑לThen Saul fell immediately his full length on the earth, and was terrified, because of the words of Samuel. There was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.1 Chronicles 6:27 · וּשְׁמוּאֵלEliab his son, Jeroham his son, Elkanah his son.1 Chronicles 6:28 · שְׁמוּאֵ֛לThe sons of Samuel: the firstborn Joel, and the second Abijah.1 Chronicles 6:33 · שְׁמוּאֵֽל׃These are those who waited, and their sons. Of the sons of the Kohathites: Heman the singer, the son of Joel, the son of Samuel,1 Chronicles 7:2 · וּשְׁמוּאֵ֗לThe sons of Tola: Uzzi, and Rephaiah, and Jeriel, and Jahmai, and Ibsam, and Shemuel, heads of their fathers’ houses, of Tola; mighty men of valor in their generations: their number in the days of David was twenty-two thousand six hundred.1 Chronicles 9:22 · וּשְׁמוּאֵ֥לAll these who were chosen to be porters in the thresholds were two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer ordained in their office of trust.1 Chronicles 11:3 · שְׁמוּאֵֽל׃ סSo all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of Yahweh by Samuel.1 Chronicles 26:28 · שְׁמוּאֵ֤לAll that Samuel the seer, and Saul the son of Kish, and Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Zeruiah, had dedicated, whoever had dedicated anything, it was under the hand of Shelomoth, and of his brothers.1 Chronicles 29:29 · שְׁמוּאֵ֣לNow the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer,2 Chronicles 35:18 · שְׁמוּאֵ֣לThere was no Passover like that kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; neither did any of the kings of Israel keep such a Passover as Josiah kept, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel who were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.Psalm 99:6 · וּ֭שְׁמוּאֵלMoses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel among those who call on his name; they called on Yahweh, and he answered them.Jeremiah 15:1 · וּשְׁמוּאֵל֙Then Yahweh said to me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.
