Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gib´e-ah of Saul.
And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the Lord, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elka´nah knew Hannah his wife; and the Lord remembered her.
And Saul also went home to Gib´e-ah; and there went with him a band of men, whose hearts God had touched.
Then came the messengers to Gib´e-ah of Saul, and told the tidings in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.
And his return was to Ramah, for there was his house; and there he judged Israel; and there he built an altar unto the Lord.
