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.
And whanne þei yeden doun in þe laste part of þe citee, Samuel seide to Saul, Seie thou to þe child, þat he go bifor vs, and passe; forsoþe stonde thou a litil, þat Y schewe to þee þe word of þe Lord.
