22 Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Σαμουήλ, ἄκουε τῆς φωνῆς αὐτῶν, καὶ βασίλευσον αὐτοῖς βασιλέα· καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς ἄνδρας Ἰσραήλ, ἀποτρεχέτω ἕκαστος εἰς τὴν πόλιν αὐτοῦ.
Καὶ ἔδωκά σοι βασιλέα ἐν ὀργῇ μου, καὶ ἔσχον ἐν τῷ θυμῷ μου.
Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Σαμουήλ, ἄκουε τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ λαοῦ, καθὰ ἂν λαλῶσί σοι, ὅτι οὐ σὲ ἐξουθενήκασιν, ἀλλʼ ἢ ἐμὲ ἐξουθενήκασι τοῦ μὴ βασιλεύειν ἐπʼ αὐτῶν.
Καὶ ἀνὴρ ἐξ υἱῶν Βενιαμίν, καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῷ Κίς, υἱὸς ʼΑβιὴλ, υἱοῦ Ἰαρὲδ, υἱοῦ Βαχὶρ, υἱοῦ ʼΑφὲκ, υἱοῦ ἀνδρὸς Ἰεμιναίου, ἀνὴρ δυνατός.
