14. And Saul’s uncle said unto him and to his servant, Where went ye? And he said, To seek the asses, and when we saw that they were nowhere, we came to Samuel.
15. And Saul’s uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you.
16. And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel spoke, he did not tell him.
17. And Samuel called the people together unto the Lord to Mizpeh
18. and said unto the sons of Israel, Thus hath the Lord God of Israel said, I brought up Israel out of Egypt and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians and out of the hand of all kingdoms and of those that oppressed you.
