4 Samuel did what the Lord directed and went to Bethlehem.(A) When the elders of the town met him, they trembled[a] and asked, “Do[b] you come in peace?”(B)
5 “In peace,” he replied. “I’ve come to sacrifice to the Lord. Consecrate yourselves(C) and come with me to the sacrifice.”[c] Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice.
