1 Samuel 9:2-4
New Living Translation
2 His son Saul was the most handsome man in Israel—head and shoulders taller than anyone else in the land.
3 One day Kish’s donkeys strayed away, and he told Saul, “Take a servant with you, and go look for the donkeys.” 4 So Saul took one of the servants and traveled through the hill country of Ephraim, the land of Shalishah, the Shaalim area, and the entire land of Benjamin, but they couldn’t find the donkeys anywhere.

New International Version
1 Samuel 9:2-4
New International Version
2 Kish had a son named Saul, as handsome(A) a young man as could be found(B) anywhere in Israel, and he was a head taller(C) than anyone else.
3 Now the donkeys(D) belonging to Saul’s father Kish were lost, and Kish said to his son Saul, “Take one of the servants with you and go and look for the donkeys.” 4 So he passed through the hill(E) country of Ephraim and through the area around Shalisha,(F) but they did not find them. They went on into the district of Shaalim, but the donkeys(G) were not there. Then he passed through the territory of Benjamin, but they did not find them.
