16The Lord said to Samuel, How long will you grieve over Saul? I have rejected him from being king over Israel. Fill your horn with oil and set out; I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have provided for myself a king among his sons. 2Samuel said, How can I go? If Saul hears of it, he will kill me. And the Lord said, Take a heifer with you, and say, I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. 3Invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do; and you shall anoint for me the one whom I name to you. 4Samuel did what the Lord commanded, and came to Bethlehem. The elders of the city came to meet him trembling, and said, Do you come peaceably? 5He said, Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord; sanctify yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice. 6 When they came, he looked on Eliab and thought, Surely the Lords anointed is now before the Lord.* 7But the Lord said to Samuel, Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for the Lord does not see as mortals see; they look on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart. 8Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, Neither has the Lord chosen this one. 9Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, Neither has the Lord chosen this one. 10Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel, and Samuel said to Jesse, The Lord has not chosen any of these. 11Samuel said to Jesse, Are all your sons here? And he said, There remains yet the youngest, but he is keeping the sheep. And Samuel said to Jesse, Send and bring him; for we will not sit down until he comes here. 12He sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and had beautiful eyes, and was handsome. The Lord said, Rise and anoint him; for this is the one. 13Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the presence of his brothers; and the spirit of the Lord came mightily upon David from that day forward. Samuel then set out and went to Ramah.

Jednog dana Jehova je rekao Samuelu: “Dokle ćeš tugovati za Šaulom,+ kad sam ga ja odbacio da više ne kraljuje nad Izraelom?+ Napuni uljem+ rog svoj i kreni na put! Šaljem te Jišaju+ iz Betlehema, jer sam među sinovima njegovim izabrao sebi kralja.”+2 Ali Samuel je rekao: “Kako da idem? Ako to čuje Šaul, ubit će me!”+ A Jehova je odvratio: “Uzmi sa sobom junicu iz krda, pa reci: ‘Došao sam da prinesem žrtvu Jehovi’!+3 I pozovi Jišaja na žrtvu, a ja ću ti reći što ćeš činiti!+ Pomaži+ mi onoga kojega ti pokažem!”4 I Samuel je učinio što mu je rekao Jehova. Kad je došao u Betlehem,+ starješine gradski došli su mu dršćući+ u susret i upitali su: “Dolaziš li u miru?”+5 A on je odgovorio: “Da, dolazim u miru. Došao sam prinijeti žrtvu Jehovi. Posvetite se,+ pa dođite sa mnom na žrtvu!” Potom je posvetio Jišaja i sinove njegove i pozvao ih na žrtvu.6 Kad su došli i kad je ugledao Elijaba,+ pomislio je: “Sigurno je pred Jehovom pomazanik njegov!”7 Ali Jehova je rekao Samuelu: “Ne gledaj na vanjštinu njegovu niti na visoki stas njegov,+ jer sam ga odbacio! Bog ne gleda na što čovjek gleda,+ jer čovjek gleda ono što oči vide,+ a Jehova gleda što je u srcu.”+8 Jišaj je zatim pozvao Abinadaba+ i doveo ga pred Samuela, ali on je rekao: “Ni ovoga Jehova nije izabrao.”9 Potom je Jišaj doveo Šamu,+ ali Samuel je rekao: “Ni ovoga Jehova nije izabrao.”10 Tako je Jišaj doveo pred Samuela sedam sinova svojih, ali Samuel je rekao Jišaju: “Jehova nije izabrao nijednoga od njih.”11 Na koncu je Samuel upitao Jišaja: “Jesu li to svi tvoji sinovi?” A on je odgovorio: “Ostao je još najmlađi,+ ali on pase ovce.”+ Nato je Samuel rekao Jišaju: “Pošalji po njega, jer nećemo sjesti za stol dok on ne dođe!”12 I Jišaj je poslao po njega. A mladić je bio rumen,+ lijepih očiju i krasna stasa. I Jehova je rekao: “Ustani i pomaži ga, jer to je taj!”+13 Tada je Samuel uzeo rog s uljem+ i pomazao ga usred braće njegove. I duh Jehovin došao je na Davida i od toga je dana ostao na njemu.+ Potom je Samuel ustao i otišao u Ramu.+14 I duh Jehovin odstupio je+ od Šaula. Tada je Jehova dao da ga počne mučiti zlovolja.*+15 A sluge su rekle Šaulu: “Evo, Bog je dopustio da te muči zlovolja.*16 Neka gospodar naš zapovjedi slugama svojim što stoje pred tobom da potraže čovjeka+ koji zna dobro svirati harfu,+ pa kad Bog dopusti da te obuzme zlovolja,* on će svirati i tebi će biti bolje!”17 I Šaul je rekao slugama svojim: “Nađite mi čovjeka koji zna dobro svirati i dovedite mi ga!”+18 A jedan od slugu njegovih odvratio je: “Evo, vidio sam da jedan od sinova Jišaja iz Betlehema zna dobro svirati.+ On je hrabar čovjek, junak+ i ratnik,+ a usto mudro govori,+ lijepa je stasa+ i Jehova je s njim.”+19 Tada je Šaul poslao glasnike Jišaju i poručio mu: “Pošalji mi svojega sina Davida, koji je kod stada!”+20 I Jišaj je uzeo magarca, natovario na njega kruh, mijeh+ vina i jare i poslao to Šaulu po sinu svojemu Davidu.+21 Tako je David došao k Šaulu i stupio u njegovu službu.+ On ga je veoma zavolio i postavio ga za štitonošu.+22 Potom je Šaul poručio Jišaju: “Pusti da David ostane kod mene u službi, jer je stekao moju naklonost!”23 I kad bi Bog dopustio da Šaula obuzme zlovolja,* David bi uzeo harfu i svirao. Tada bi Šaul osjetio olakšanje i bilo bi mu bolje, a zlovolja bi ga prošla.*+ Bilješke ^ Doslovno: “i počeo ga je uznemiravati zao duh od Jehove”.
