וַיַּשְׁכֵּם שְׁמוּאֵל לִקְרַאת שָׁאוּל בַּבֹּקֶר וַיֻּגַּד לִשְׁמוּאֵל לֵאמֹר בָּֽא־שָׁאוּל הַכַּרְמֶלָה וְהִנֵּה מַצִּיב לוֹ יָד וַיִּסֹּב וַֽיַּעֲבֹר וַיֵּרֶד הַגִּלְגָּֽל׃

מציב לו יד. בונה לו מזבח הוא המזבח שנאמר באליהו (מלכים-א יח ל): וירפא את מזבח ה' ההרוס. ויונתן תרגם: והא מתקן ליה תמן אתר לפלגא ביה ביזתא:
And is setting up a place for himself. He is building an altar for himself. That is the altar referred to concerning Eliyohu, 'he repaired the ruined altar of Adonoy.'17Melachim I 18:30. Targum Yonoson renders, 'and he is making room there for himself to divide the spoils.'
וַיָּבֹא שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל־שָׁאוּל וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ שָׁאוּל בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה לַֽיהֹוָה הֲקִימֹתִי אֶת־דְּבַר יְהֹוָֽה׃

וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל וּמֶה קֽוֹל־הַצֹּאן הַזֶּה בְּאׇזְנָי וְקוֹל הַבָּקָר אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי שֹׁמֵֽעַ׃

וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל מֵעֲמָלֵקִי הֱבִיאוּם אֲשֶׁר חָמַל הָעָם עַל־מֵיטַב הַצֹּאן וְהַבָּקָר לְמַעַן זְבֹחַ לַיהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ וְאֶת־הַיּוֹתֵר הֶחֱרַֽמְנוּ׃ {פ}
Shaul said, "They have brought them from the Amoleikites, for the people had pity on the best of the sheep and cattle in order to sacrifice them as offerings to Adonoy, your God, but the remainder we destroyed."

נחמתי. מחשבה עלתה בלבי על מלכות שאול שהמלכתי:
I have reconsidered. A thought has risen in my heart concerning Shaul's kingship, whom I have appointed king.
