21. Samuel told each family in the tribe of Benjamin to pass by. Matri’s family was chosen. Then Samuel told each man in Matri’s family to walk by. Saul son of Kish was chosen. But when the people looked for Saul, they could not find him.

22. Then they asked the Lord, “Has Saul come here yet?” The Lord said, “Saul is hiding behind the supplies.”

23. The people ran and took Saul out from behind the supplies. Saul stood up among the people. He was a head taller than anyone else.

24. Samuel said to all the people, “See the man the Lord has chosen. There is no one like Saul among the people.” Then the people shouted, “Long live the king!”
