1 Samuel 11:12-15 - Saul's Confirmation As King

12 And the people said to Samuel, Who is he that said, Shall Saul reign over us? Bring the men so that we may put them to death.

13 And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death this day, for today Jehovah has worked salvation in Israel.

14 Then Samuel said to the people, Come and let us go to Gilgal and renew the kingdom there. 15 And all the people went to Gilgal, and made Saul king before Jehovah in Gilgal, and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before Jehovah. And there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
