← 1 Samuel 10:20	1 Samuel 10:21 (KJV)	1 Samuel 10:22 →
And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was taken.	When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was taken, and Saul the son of Kish was taken: and when they sought him, he could not be found.
