And Samuel grew up, and Yahweh was with him. {He did not allow any of his prophecies to go unfulfilled}.

Why then do you harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When He had severely dealt with them, did they not allow the people to go, and they departed?

And the elders of Jabesh said to him, Allow us seven days, and we will send messengers into all the districts of Israel; and if there be no man to deliver us, we will come out to thee.

Saul sent a messenger to Jesse to tell him, "Allow David to serve me, because I'm pleased with him."

Saul retained David on that day and did not allow him to return to his father's house.

Then Saul said, "This [is] what you must say to David: '{The king desires no bride price} except for a hundred foreskins of [the] Philistines, to avenge himself on the enemies of the king.'" (Now Saul had planned to allow David to fall by the hand of [the] Philistines.)

If your father actually notices that I'm not there, then you are to say, "David urgently requested that I allow him to run to his hometown of Bethlehem because the yearly sacrifice for the entire family was taking place there.'

David restrained his men with his words and did not allow them to rebel against Saul. Saul got up from the cave and started off.
