I SAMUEL

I Samuel 16

1Now the LORD said to Samuel, “How long are you going to mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and go. I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem, for I have selected from his sons a king for Myself.”
2 Kings 9:1, 1 Samuel 15:23, 2 Kings 9:1, 1 Samuel 15:23, 1 Samuel 15:35
2“How can I go?” Samuel asked. “Saul will hear of it and kill me!” The LORD answered, “Take a heifer with you and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.’
1 Samuel 9:12, 1 Samuel 9:12, 1 Samuel 20:29, 1 Samuel 20:29, Matthew 10:16
3Then invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you are to do. You are to anoint for Me the one I indicate.”
1 Samuel 9:16, 1 Samuel 9:16, 2 Samuel 15:11, 2 Samuel 15:11, 1 Samuel 16:12
4So Samuel did what the LORD had said and went to Bethlehem. When the elders of the town met him, they trembled and asked, “Do you come in peace?”
1 Kings 2:13, 1 Kings 2:13, 1 Chronicles 12:17, 1 Chronicles 12:18, Luke 5:8
5“In peace,” he replied. “I have come to sacrifice to the LORD. Consecrate yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice.
Exodus 19:10, Leviticus 20:7, Leviticus 20:8, Joshua 3:5, Exodus 19:10
6When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and said, “Surely here before the LORD is His anointed.”
1 Samuel 17:13, 1 Samuel 17:13, 1 Chronicles 2:13, 1 Chronicles 2:13, 1 Samuel 17:22
7But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or height, for I have rejected him; the LORD does not see as man does. For man sees the outward appearance, but the LORD sees the heart.”
John 7:24, John 7:24, Jeremiah 17:10, Jeremiah 17:10, Luke 16:15
8Then Jesse called Abinadab and presented him to Samuel, who said, “The LORD has not chosen this one either.”
1 Samuel 17:13, 1 Samuel 17:13, 1 Chronicles 2:13, 1 Chronicles 2:13
9Next Jesse presented Shammah, but Samuel said, “The LORD has not chosen this one either.”
1 Samuel 17:13, 1 Samuel 17:13, 1 Chronicles 2:13, 2 Samuel 13:3, 1 Chronicles 2:13
10Thus Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel told him, “The LORD has not chosen any of these.”
1 Chronicles 2:13, 1 Chronicles 2:15, 1 Chronicles 2:13, 1 Chronicles 2:15
11And Samuel asked him, “Are these all the sons you have?” “There is still the youngest,” Jesse replied, “but he is tending the sheep.” “Send for him,” Samuel replied. “For we will not sit down to eat until he arrives.”
Psalms 78:70, Psalms 78:71, Psalms 78:70, Psalms 78:71, 2 Samuel 7:8
12So Jesse sent for his youngest son and brought him in. He was ruddy, with beautiful eyes and a handsome appearance. And the LORD said, “Rise and anoint him, for he is the one.”
Song of Solomon 5:10, Lamentations 4:7, Song of Solomon 5:10, Lamentations 4:7, Psalms 89:19
13So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and the Spirit of the LORD rushed upon David from that day forward. Then Samuel set out and went to Ramah.
1 Samuel 10:6, 1 Samuel 10:6, Hebrews 1:9, Hebrews 1:9, 1 Samuel 10:1
14After the Spirit of the LORD had departed from Saul, a spirit of distress from the LORD began to torment him.
Psalms 51:11, Psalms 51:11, 1 Samuel 18:12, 1 Samuel 18:12, Judges 9:23
15Saul’s servants said to him, “Surely a spirit of distress from God is tormenting you.
16Let our lord command your servants here to seek out someone who can skillfully play the harp. Whenever the spirit of distress from God is upon you, he is to play it, and you will be well.”
2 Kings 3:15, 2 Kings 3:15, 1 Kings 10:8, 1 Kings 10:8, 1 Samuel 16:21
17And Saul commanded his servants, “Find me someone who plays well, and bring him to me.”
18One of the servants answered, “I have seen a son of Jesse of Bethlehem who knows how to play the harp. He is a mighty man of valor, a warrior, eloquent and handsome, and the LORD is with him.”
1 Samuel 3:19, 1 Samuel 3:19, Genesis 39:23, Genesis 39:23, Genesis 39:2
19So Saul sent messengers to Jesse and said, “Send me your son David, who is with the sheep.”
1 Samuel 17:15, 1 Samuel 16:11, Psalms 78:70, Psalms 78:72, 1 Samuel 17:15
20And Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread, a skin of wine, and one young goat, and sent them to Saul with his son David.
Proverbs 18:16, 1 Samuel 10:27, Proverbs 18:16, 1 Samuel 10:27, 1 Samuel 17:18
21When David came to Saul and entered his service, Saul admired him greatly, and David became his armor-bearer.
Proverbs 22:29, Genesis 41:46, Proverbs 22:29, Genesis 41:46, Psalms 146:3
22Then Saul sent word to Jesse, saying, “Let David remain in my service, for I am pleased with him.”
23And whenever the spirit from God came upon Saul, David would pick up his harp and play, and Saul would become well, and the spirit of distress would depart from him.
1 Samuel 16:14, 1 Samuel 16:16, 1 Samuel 16:14, 1 Samuel 16:16, 1 Samuel 18:10
