13 Samuel otti öljysarvensa ja voiteli Daavidin siinä veljesten keskellä, ja Herran henki tuli Daavidiin ja pysyi hänessä siitä päivästä alkaen. Sitten Samuel palasi Ramaan.

11 Samuel said to Jesse, "Are all your children here?"

He said, "There remains yet the youngest. Behold, he is keeping the sheep."

Samuel said to Jesse, "Send and get him, for we will not sit down until he comes here."

13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the middle of his brothers. Then Yahweh’s Spirit came mightily on David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up and went to Ramah.
