Even in former days, when Sha'ul was king over us, it was you who led Yisra'el out and brought them in. And YHWH said to you: 'You shall shepherd My people Yisra'el, and you shall be nagid over Yisra'el.'
Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel.
Even in times past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And to you the LORD said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”
