Samuel anointed Saul's head and kissed him. Then, once he was told he was supposed to be king,Samuel told him three signs that would come true and the spirit of the LORD would come upon him. And all the things came true. When he got home, everyone asked him what took him so long, Saul told them that he had been assured by Samuel that the donkeys were found but he did not tell about being the king.
Samel started to name the tribe, and the tribe of Benjamine was chosen. Then he started to name the clans, and the clan of Matrni was chosen. Then Saul was chosen. When they looked for Saul, he was not there. God said he was hiding among the baggage. So they looked for him. Was it that he didn't want to be king? They brought him out and the people exclaimed "LONG LIVE THE KING!!!!!"

Saul also went to his home in Gibeah, accompanied by valiant men whose hearts God had touched. But some troublemakers said, "How can this fellow save us?" They despised him and brought him no gifts. But Saul kept silent. I don't think they would be trouble makers. They shoudn't have a king anyway.
