ગુજરાતી1 શમુએલ ૯:૧૬
“કાલે આશરે આ સમયે, બિન્યામીનના વતનમાંથી એક માણસને હું તારી પાસે મોકલીશ, મારા લોક ઇઝરાયલનો સરદાર થવા સારુ તેનો અભિષેક તું કરજે. અને તે પલિસ્તીઓના હાથમાંથી મારા લોકોને છોડાવશે; કેમ કે મારા લોકોનો પોકાર મારી પાસે આવ્યો છે, માટે મેં તેઓ પર કૃપાદ્રષ્ટિ કરી છે.”
हिन्दी1 शमूएल ९:१६
“कल इसी समय मैं तेरे पास बिन्यामीन के क्षेत्र से एक पुरुष को भेजूँगा, उसी को तू मेरी इस्राएली प्रजा के ऊपर प्रधान होने के लिये अभिषेक करना। और वह मेरी प्रजा को पलिश्तियों के हाथ से छुड़ाएगा; क्योंकि मैंने अपनी प्रजा पर कृपादृष्टि की है, इसलिए कि उनकी चिल्लाहट मेरे पास पहुँची है।”

In context

14They went up to the city. As they came within the city, behold, Samuel came out toward them to go up to the high place.

15Now the LORD had revealed to Samuel a day before Saul came, saying,

16“Tomorrow about this time I will send you a man out of the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be prince over my people Israel. He will save my people out of the hand of the Philistines; for I have looked upon my people, because their cry has come to me.”

17When Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said to him, “Behold, the man of whom I spoke to you! He will have authority over my people.”

18Then Saul approached Samuel in the gateway, and said, “Please tell me where the seer’s house is.”
