Saul Anointed King

10 ^(A)Then Samuel took a flask of oil and poured it on his head ^(B)and kissed him and said, “Has not the Lord anointed you to be prince over ^(C)his people Israel? And you shall reign over the people of the Lord and you will save them from the hand of their surrounding enemies. And this shall be the sign to you that the Lord has anointed you to be prince^[a] over his heritage.

^18 (A)Yet I will leave seven thousand in Israel, all the knees that have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that has not ^(B)kissed him.”

²³ that all may honour the Son, just as they ^(A)honour the Father. ^(B)Whoever does not honour the Son does not honour the Father who sent him.
