As they were going down at the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul, Bid the servant pass on before us (and he passed on), but stand thou still first, that I may cause thee to hear the word of God.

Now therefore stand still that I may plead with you before LORD concerning all the righteous acts of LORD, which he did to you and to your fathers.

Now therefore stand still and see this great thing, which LORD will do before your eyes.

But if ye shall still do wickedly, ye shall be consumed, both ye and your king.

If they say thus to us, Tarry until we come to you, then we will stand still in our place, and will not go up to them.
