1SA-1:8 Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why

weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart

grieved? [am] not I better to thee than ten sons?

1SA-1:14 And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken?

put away thy wine from thee.

1SA-2:23 And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I

hear of your evil dealings by all this people.

1SA-2:25 If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge

him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall entreat for

him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their

father, because the LORD would slay them.

1SA-2:27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him,

 Thus saith the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy

father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?

1SA-2:28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel

[to be] my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to

wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy

father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?

1SA-2:29 Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering,

which I have commanded [in my] habitation; and honourest thy

sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all

the offerings of Israel my people?

1SA-3:17 And he said, What [is] the thing that [the LORD] hath

said unto thee? I pray thee hide [it] not from me: God do so to

thee, and more also, if thou hide [any] thing from me of all the

things that he said unto thee.

1SA-4:3 And when the people were come into the camp, the elders

of Israel said, Wherefore hath the LORD smitten us to day before

the Philistines? Let us fetch the ark of the covenant of the

LORD out of Shiloh unto us, that, when it cometh among us, it

may save us out of the hand of our enemies.

1SA-4:6 And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout,

they said, What [meaneth] the noise of this great shout in the

camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the

LORD was come into the camp.

1SA-4:8 Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of

these mighty Gods? these [are] the Gods that smote the Egyptians

with all the plagues in the wilderness.

1SA-4:14 And when Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said,

What [meaneth] the noise of this tumult? And the man came in

hastily, and told Eli.

1SA-4:16 And the man said unto Eli, I [am] he that came out of

the army, and I fled to day out of the army. And he said, What

is there done, my son?

1SA-5:8 They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the

Philistines unto them, and said, What shall we do with the ark

of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the ark of the God

of Israel be carried about unto Gath. And they carried the ark

of the God of Israel about [thither].

1SA-6:2 And the Philistines called for the priests and the

diviners, saying, What shall we do to the ark of the LORD? tell

us wherewith we shall send it to his place.

1SA-6:4 Then said they, What [shall be] the trespass offering

which we shall return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods,

 and five golden mice, [according to] the number of the lords of

the Philistines: for one plague [was] on you all, and on your

lords.

1SA-6:6 Wherefore then do ye harden your hearts, as the

Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? when he had wrought

wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they

departed?

1SA-6:20 And the men of Bethshemesh said, Who is able to stand

before this holy LORD God? and to whom shall he go up from us?

1SA-9:7 Then said Saul to his servant, But, behold, [if] we go,

what shall we bring the man? for the bread is spent in our

vessels, and [there is] not a present to bring to the man of God:

 what have we?

1SA-9:11 [And] as they went up the hill to the city, they found

young maidens going out to draw water, and said unto them, Is

the seer here?

1SA-9:20 And as for thine asses that were lost three days ago,

set not thy mind on them; for they are found. And on whom [is]

all the desire of Israel? [Is it] not on thee, and on all thy

father's house?

1SA-9:21 And Saul answered and said, [Am] not I a Benjamite, of

the smallest of the tribes of Israel? and my family the least of

all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? wherefore then

speakest thou so to me?

1SA-10:1 Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured [it] upon

his head, and kissed him, and said, [Is it] not because the LORD

hath anointed thee [to be] captain over his inheritance?

1SA-10:2 When thou art departed from me to day, then thou shalt

find two men by Rachel's sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at

Zelzah; and they will say unto thee, The asses which thou

wentest to seek are found: and, lo, thy father hath left the

care of the asses, and sorroweth for you, saying, What shall I

do for my son?

1SA-10:11 And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime

saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the

people said one to another, What [is] this [that] is come unto

the son of Kish? [Is] Saul also among the prophets?

1SA-10:12 And one of the same place answered and said, But who

[is] their father? Therefore it became a proverb, [Is] Saul also

among the prophets?

1SA-10:14 And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant,

Whither went ye? And he said, To seek the asses: and when we saw

that [they were] no where, we came to Samuel.

1SA-10:24 And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom the

LORD hath chosen, that [there is] none like him among all the

people? And all the people shouted, and said, God save the king.

1SA-10:27 But the children of Belial said, How shall this man

save us? And they despised him, and brought him no presents. But

he held his peace.

1SA-11:5 And, behold, Saul came after the herd out of the field;

and Saul said, What [aileth] the people that they weep? And they

told him the tidings of the men of Jabesh.

1SA-11:12 And the people said unto Samuel, Who [is] he that said,

 Shall Saul reign over us? bring the men, that we may put them

to death.

1SA-12:3 Behold, here I [am]: witness against me before the LORD,

 and before his anointed: whose ox have I taken? or whose ass

have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed?

or of whose hand have I received [any] bribe to blind mine eyes

therewith? and I will restore it you.

1SA-12:17 [Is it] not wheat harvest to day? I will call unto the

LORD, and he shall send thunder and rain; that ye may perceive

and see that your wickedness [is] great, which ye have done in

the sight of the LORD, in asking you a king.

1SA-13:11 And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said,

Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and [that]

thou camest not within the days appointed, and [that] the

Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;

1SA-14:30 How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely to

day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for had

there not been now a much greater slaughter among the

Philistines?

1SA-14:37 And Saul asked counsel of God, Shall I go down after

the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel?

But he answered him not that day.

1SA-14:45 And the people said unto Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who

hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? God forbid: [as]

the LORD liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to

the ground; for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people

rescued Jonathan, that he died not.

1SA-15:14 And Samuel said, What [meaneth] then this bleating of

the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?

1SA-15:17 And Samuel said, When thou [wast] little in thine own

sight, [wast] thou not [made] the head of the tribes of Israel,

and the LORD anointed thee king over Israel?

1SA-15:19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the

LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight

of the LORD?

1SA-15:22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD [as great] delight in

burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the

LORD? Behold, to obey [is] better than sacrifice, [and] to

hearken than the fat of rams.

1SA-16:1 And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn

for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel?

fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the

Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.

1SA-16:2 And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear [it], he

will kill me. And the LORD said, Take an heifer with thee, and

say, I am come to sacrifice to the LORD.

1SA-16:4 And Samuel did that which the LORD spake, and came to

Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming,

and said, Comest thou peaceably?

1SA-16:11 And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all [thy]

children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and,

behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send

and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.

1SA-17:8 And he stood and cried unto the armies of Israel, and

said unto them, Why are ye come out to set [your] battle in

array? [am] not I a Philistine, and ye servants to Saul? choose

you a man for you, and let him come down to me.

1SA-17:25 And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that

is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be,

 [that] the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with

great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his

father's house free in Israel.

1SA-17:26 And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying,

What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and

taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who [is] this

uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the

living God?

1SA-17:28 And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto

the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he

said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left

those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the

naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou

mightest see the battle.

1SA-17:29 And David said, What have I now done? [Is there] not a

cause?

1SA-17:43 And the Philistine said unto David, [Am] I a dog, that

thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David

by his gods.

1SA-17:55 And when Saul saw David go forth against the

Philistine, he said unto Abner, the captain of the host, Abner,

whose son [is] this youth? And Abner said, [As] thy soul liveth,

O king, I cannot tell.

1SA-17:58 And Saul said to him, Whose son [art] thou, [thou]

young man? And David answered, I [am] the son of thy servant

Jesse the Bethlehemite.

1SA-18:8 And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him;

and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to

me they have ascribed [but] thousands: and [what] can he have

more but the kingdom?

1SA-18:18 And David said unto Saul, Who [am] I? and what [is] my

life, [or] my father's family in Israel, that I should be son in

law to the king?

1SA-18:23 And Saul's servants spake those words in the ears of

David. And David said, Seemeth it to you [a] light [thing] to be

a king's son in law, seeing that I [am] a poor man, and lightly

esteemed?

1SA-19:5 For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the

Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all

Israel: thou sawest [it], and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt

thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?

1SA-19:17 And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou deceived me

so, and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal

answered Saul, He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill

thee?

1SA-19:22 Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a great well

that [is] in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where [are] Samuel

and David? And [one] said, Behold, [they be] at Naioth in Ramah.

1SA-19:24 And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied

before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day

and all that night. Wherefore they say, [Is] Saul also among the

prophets?

1SA-20:1 And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said

before Jonathan, What have I done? what [is] mine iniquity? and

what [is] my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life?

1SA-20:2 And he said unto him, God forbid; thou shalt not die:

behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but

that he will show it me: and why should my father hide this

thing from me? it [is] not [so].

1SA-20:8 Therefore thou shalt deal kindly with thy servant; for

thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the LORD with

thee: notwithstanding, if there be in me iniquity, slay me

thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father?

1SA-20:9 And Jonathan said, Far be it from thee: for if I knew

certainly that evil were determined by my father to come upon

thee, then would not I tell it thee?

1SA-20:10 Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or

what [if] thy father answer thee roughly?

1SA-20:27 And it came to pass on the morrow, [which was] the

second [day] of the month, that David's place was empty: and

Saul said unto Jonathan his son, Wherefore cometh not the son of

Jesse to meat, neither yesterday, nor to day?

1SA-20:30 Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he

said unto him, Thou son of the perverse rebellious [woman], do

not I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own

confusion, and unto the confusion of thy mother's nakedness?

1SA-20:32 And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said unto

him, Wherefore shall he be slain? what hath he done?

1SA-20:37 And when the lad was come to the place of the arrow

which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad, and said,

[Is] not the arrow beyond thee?

1SA-21:1 Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and

Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said unto him,

Why [art] thou alone, and no man with thee?

1SA-21:3 Now therefore what is under thine hand? give [me] five

[loaves of] bread in mine hand, or what there is present.

1SA-21:8 And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here

under thine hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my

sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business

required haste.

1SA-21:11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, [Is] not

this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to

another of him in dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands,

and David his ten thousands?

1SA-21:14 Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man

is mad: wherefore [then] have ye brought him to me?

1SA-21:15 Have I need of mad men, that ye have brought this

[fellow] to play the mad man in my presence? shall this [fellow]

come into my house?

1SA-22:8 That all of you have conspired against me, and [there

is] none that showeth me that my son hath made a league with the

son of Jesse, and [there is] none of you that is sorry for me,

or showeth unto me that my son hath stirred up my servant

against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?

1SA-22:13 And Saul said unto him, Why have ye conspired against

me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou hast given him bread,

 and a sword, and hast inquired of God for him, that he should

rise against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?

1SA-22:14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, And who

[is so] faithful among all thy servants as David, which is the

king's son in law, and goeth at thy bidding, and is honourable

in thine house?

1SA-22:15 Did I then begin to inquire of God for him? be it far

from me: let not the king impute [any] thing unto his servant,

[nor] to all the house of my father: for thy servant knew

nothing of all this, less or more.

1SA-23:2 Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I

go and smite these Philistines? And the LORD said unto David, Go,

 and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.

1SA-23:3 And David's men said unto him, Behold, we be afraid

here in Judah: how much more then if we come to Keilah against

the armies of the Philistines?

1SA-23:11 Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand?

will Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard? O LORD God of

Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And the LORD said, He

will come down.

1SA-23:12 Then said David, Will the men of Keilah deliver me and

my men into the hand of Saul? And the LORD said, They will

deliver [thee] up.

1SA-23:19 Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying,

Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood,

in the hill of Hachilah, which [is] on the south of Jeshimon?

1SA-24:9 And David said to Saul, Wherefore hearest thou men's

words, saying, Behold, David seeketh thy hurt?

1SA-24:14 After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom

dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.

1SA-24:16 And it came to pass, when David had made an end of

speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said, [Is] this thy

voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.

1SA-24:19 For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well

away? wherefore the LORD reward thee good for that thou hast

done unto me this day.

1SA-25:10 And Nabal answered David's servants, and said, Who

[is] David? and who [is] the son of Jesse? there be many

servants now a days that break away every man from his master.

1SA-25:11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh

that I have killed for my shearers, and give [it] unto men, whom

I know not whence they [be]?

1SA-26:1 And the Ziphites came unto Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth

not David hide himself in the hill of Hachilah, [which is]

before Jeshimon?

1SA-26:6 Then answered David and said to Ahimelech the Hittite,

and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother to Joab, saying, Who

will go down with me to Saul to the camp? And Abishai said, I

will go down with thee.

1SA-26:9 And David said to Abishai, Destroy him not: for who can

stretch forth his hand against the LORD'S anointed, and be

guiltless?

1SA-26:14 And David cried to the people, and to Abner the son of

Ner, saying, Answerest thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and

said, Who [art] thou [that] criest to the king?

1SA-26:15 And David said to Abner, [Art] not thou a [valiant]

man? and who [is] like to thee in Israel? wherefore then hast

thou not kept thy lord the king? for there came one of the

people in to destroy the king thy lord.

1SA-26:17 And Saul knew David's voice, and said, [Is] this thy

voice, my son David? And David said, [It is] my voice, my lord,

O king.

1SA-26:18 And he said, Wherefore doth my lord thus pursue after

his servant? for what have I done? or what evil [is] in mine

hand?

1SA-27:5 And David said unto Achish, If I have now found grace

in thine eyes, let them give me a place in some town in the

country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant

dwell in the royal city with thee?

1SA-27:10 And Achish said, Whither have ye made a road to day?

And David said, Against the south of Judah, and against the

south of the Jerahmeelites, and against the south of the Kenites.

1SA-28:9 And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what

Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar

spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: wherefore then layest

thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?

1SA-28:11 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee?

And he said, Bring me up Samuel.

1SA-28:12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud

voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou

deceived me? for thou [art] Saul.

1SA-28:13 And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what

sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I saw gods ascending

out of the earth.

1SA-28:14 And he said unto her, What form [is] he of? And she

said, An old man cometh up; and he [is] covered with a mantle.

And Saul perceived that it [was] Samuel, and he stooped with

[his] face to the ground, and bowed himself.

1SA-28:15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me,

to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the

Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me,

and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams:

therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto

me what I shall do.

1SA-28:16 Then said Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me,

seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy?

1SA-29:3 Then said the princes of the Philistines, What [do]

these Hebrews [here]? And Achish said unto the princes of the

Philistines, [Is] not this David, the servant of Saul the king

of Israel, which hath been with me these days, or these years,

and I have found no fault in him since he fell [unto me] unto

this day?

1SA-29:4 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him;

and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this

fellow return, that he may go again to his place which thou hast

appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest

in the battle he be an adversary to us: for wherewith should he

reconcile himself unto his master? [should it] not [be] with the

heads of these men?

1SA-29:5 [Is] not this David, of whom they sang one to another

in dances, saying, Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten

thousands?

1SA-29:8 And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and

what hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been with

thee unto this day, that I may not go fight against the enemies

of my lord the king?

1SA-30:8 And David inquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue

after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him,

Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake [them], and without fail

recover [all].

1SA-30:13 And David said unto him, To whom [belongest] thou? and

whence [art] thou? And he said, I [am] a young man of Egypt,

servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three

days ago I fell sick.

1SA-30:15 And David said to him, Canst thou bring me down to

this company? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt

neither kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and

I will bring thee down to this company.

1SA-30:24 For who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as

his part [is] that goeth down to the battle, so [shall] his part

[be] that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike.
