1 Samuel 11:13-15

New International Reader's Version

¹³ But Saul said, “No one will be put to death today! After all, this is the day the Lord has rescued Israel.”

¹⁴ Then Samuel said to the people, “Come on. Let’s go to Gilgal. There we’ll agree again to have Saul as our king.” ¹⁵ So all the people went to Gilgal. There, with the Lord as witness, they made Saul their king. There they sacrificed friendship offerings to the Lord. And there Saul and all the Israelites celebrated with great joy.
