Context
17Samweli akawaita watu wa Israeli kuja kwa Bwana huko Mispa, 18naye akawaambia, “Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli: ‘Niliwatoa Israeli kutoka Misri, nami niliwaokoa toka nguvu za Misri na falme zote zilizowaonea.’ 19Lakini sasa mmemkataa Mungu wenu, ambaye anawaokoa toka katika maafa yenu yote na taabu zenu zote. Nanyi mmesema, ‘Hapana, tuteulie mfalme atutawale.’ Sasa basi, jihudhurisheni wenyewe mbele za Bwana kwa kabila zenu na kwa koo zenu.” 20Samweli alipoyasogeza makabila yote ya Israeli, kabila la Benyamini likachaguliwa. 21Kisha akalisogeza mbele kabila la Benyamini, ukoo kwa ukoo, nao ukoo wa Matri ukachaguliwa. Mwishoni Sauli mwana wa Kishi akachaguliwa. Lakini walipomtafuta, hakuonekana.
