1 Samuel 10:17-19

New King James Version

Saul Proclaimed King

¹⁷ Then Samuel called the people together ^(A)to the Lord ^(B)at Mizpah, ¹⁸ and said to the children of Israel, ^(C)“Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of all kingdoms and from those who oppressed you.’ ^19 (D)But you have today rejected your God, who Himself saved you from all your adversities and your tribulations; and you have said to Him, ‘No, set a king over us!’ Now therefore, present yourselves before the Lord by your tribes and by your ^[a]clans.”
