15. and their name might remain forever, continuing in their sons, holy men of glory.

16. Samuel, prophet of the Lord, beloved by the Lord his God, established a new government, and he anointed leaders over his people.

17. By the law of the Lord, he judged the congregation, and the God of Jacob saw it, and so, by his fidelity, he was proven to be a prophet.

18. And he was known to be faithful in his words. For he saw the God of light.
