Now there was a certain H259 man H376 of Ramathaimzophim, H7436 of mount H2022 Ephraim, H669 and his name H8034 was Elkanah, H511 the son H1121 of Jeroham, H3395 the son H1121 of Elihu, H453 the son H1121 of Tohu, H8459 the son H1121 of Zuph, H6689 an Ephrathite: H673

And they rose H7925 up in the morning H1242 early, H7925 and worshipped H7812 before H6440 the LORD, H3068 and returned, H7725 and came H935 to their house H1004 to Ramah: H7414 and Elkanah H511 knew H3045 Hannah H2584 his wife; H802 and the LORD H3068 remembered H2142 her.

Then all H3605 the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 gathered H6908 themselves together, and came H935 to Samuel H8050 to Ramah, H7414

So David H1732 fled, H1272 and escaped, H4422 and came H935 to Samuel H8050 to Ramah, H7414 and told H5046 him all H3605 that Saul H7586 had done H6213 to him. And he and Samuel H8050 went H3212 and dwelled H3427 in Naioth. H5121

And Saul H7586 sent H7971 messengers H4397 to take H3947 David: H1732 and when they saw H7200 the company H3862 of the prophets H5030 prophesying, H5012 and Samuel H8050 standing H5975 as appointed H5324 over H5921 them, the Spirit H7307 of God H430 was on the messengers H4397 of Saul, H7586 and they also H1571 prophesied. H5012

Then went H3212 he also H1571 to Ramah, H7414 and came H935 to a great H1419 well H953 that is in Sechu: H7906 and he asked H7592 and said, H559 Where H375 are Samuel H8050 and David? H1732 And one said, H559 Behold, H2009 they be at Naioth H5121 in Ramah. H7414

And all H3605 the people H5971 went H3212 to Gilgal; H1537 and there H8033 they made Saul H7586 king H4427 before H6440 the LORD H3068 in Gilgal; H1537 and there H8033 they sacrificed H2076 sacrifices H2077 of peace H8002 offerings before H6440 the LORD; H3068 and there H8033 Saul H7586 and all H3605 the men H582 of Israel H3478 rejoiced H8055 greatly. H3966

And the LORD H3068 appeared H7200 to Abram, H87 and said, H559 To your seed H2233 will I give H5414 this H2063 land: H776 and there H8033 built H1129 he an altar H4196 to the LORD, H3068 who appeared H7200 to him.

And he removed H6275 from there H8033 to a mountain H2022 on the east H6924 of Bethel, H1008 and pitched H5186 his tent, H168 having Bethel H1008 on the west, H3220 and Hai H5857 on the east: H6924 and there H8033 he built H1129 an altar H4196 to the LORD, H3068 and called H7121 on the name H8034 of the LORD. H3068

And he erected H5324 there H8033 an altar, H4196 and called H7121 it EleloheIsrael. H415

And he built H1129 there H8033 an altar, H4196 and called H7121 the place H4725 Elbethel: H416 because H3588 there H8033 God H430 appeared H1540 to him, when he fled H1272 from the face H6440 of his brother. H251

And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 said, H559 Who H4310 is there among all H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 that came H5927 not up with the congregation H6951 to the LORD? H3068 For they had made a great H1419 oath H7621 concerning him that came H5927 not up to the LORD H3068 to Mizpeh, H4709 saying, H559 He shall surely be put to death. H4191

And Elijah H452 said H559 to all H3605 the people, H5971 Come H5066 near H5066 to me. And all H3605 the people H5971 came H5066 near H5066 to him. And he repaired H7495 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 that was broken H2040 down.

And with the stones H68 he built H1129 an altar H4196 in the name H8034 of the LORD: H3068 and he made H6213 a trench H8585 about H5439 the altar, H4196 as great H1004 as would contain H1004 two measures H5429 of seed. H2233

And he said, H559 Do it the second H8138 time. And they did it the second H8138 time. And he said, H559 Do it the third H8027 time. And they did it the third H8027 time.

And it came H1961 to pass at the time of the offering H5927 of the evening sacrifice, H4503 that Elijah H452 the prophet H5030 came H5066 near, H5066 and said, H559 LORD H3068 God H430 of Abraham, H85 Isaac, H3327 and of Israel, H3478 let it be known H3045 this H2088 day H3117 that you are God H430 in Israel, H3478 and that I am your servant, H5650 and that I have done H6213 all H3605 these H428 things H1697 at your word.
