וַיְדַבֵּר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל־הָעָם אֵת מִשְׁפַּט הַמְּלֻכָה וַיִּכְתֹּב בַּסֵּפֶר וַיַּנַּח לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה וַיְשַׁלַּח שְׁמוּאֵל אֶת־כׇּל־הָעָם אִישׁ לְבֵיתֽוֹ׃
Shmuel then told the people the laws of the kingship and wrote it in the book and laid it before Adonoy. Then Shmuel sent away all the people, each man to his home.

וְגַם־שָׁאוּל הָלַךְ לְבֵיתוֹ גִּבְעָתָה וַיֵּלְכוּ עִמּוֹ הַחַיִל אֲשֶׁר־נָגַע אֱלֹהִים בְּלִבָּֽם׃
Shaul, too, went to his home, to Givah, and with him went the band of those whose heart God had touched.

וּבְנֵי בְלִיַּעַל אָמְרוּ מַה־יֹּשִׁעֵנוּ זֶה וַיִּבְזֻהוּ וְלֹא־הֵבִיאוּ לוֹ מִנְחָה וַיְהִי כְּמַחֲרִֽישׁ׃ {פ}
But wicked men said, "How will this person save us?" They ridiculed him and did not offer him a gift, yet he remained as one who is mute.

אשר נגע אלהים. גברין דחלי חטאה דאתיהב דחלא מן קדם ה' בלבהון:
God had touched. [Targum renders], 'men who fear sin, in whose heart 'ה has instilled fear.'
