And they arose early: and it came to pass about the spring of the day, that Samuel called Saul to the top of the house, saying, Up, that I may send thee away. And Saul arose, and they went out both of them, he and Samuel, abroad.

Verse 26 is found in chapter 9 of 1 Samuel. Samuel distinguishes Saul among the guests and gives him a place of honor at the banquet. He then asks Saul to remain so that he can receive a message from God. The special treatment confirms that the meeting is not accidental. The narrative still keeps the full content of the choice concealed, building the transition from Saul’s private life toward his public appointment. Attention to the details of the banquet and lodging reinforces the idea that Samuel is preparing Saul for a decisive revelation.

Und sie standen früh auf; und da die Morgenröte aufging, rief Samuel dem Saul auf dem Dach und sprach: Auf! daß ich dich gehen lasse. Und Saul machte sich auf, und die beiden gingen miteinander hinaus, er und Samuel.
Y al otro día madrugaron: y como al apuntar del alba, Samuel llamó a Saúl, que estaba en el terrado; y dijo: Levántate, para que te despache. Levantóse luego Saúl, y salieron fuera ambos, él y Samuel.
Se levantaron temprano. Al despuntar el alba, Samuel llamó a Saúl en la azotea y le dijo: «Levántate, para que te deje partir». Saúl se levantó y salieron los dos, él y Samuel.
Puis ils se levèrent de bon matin; et, dès l'aurore, Samuel appela Saül sur le toit, et dit: Viens, et je te laisserai partir. Saül se leva, et ils sortirent tous deux, lui et Samuel.
E la mattina seguente si levarono a buon’ora, e all’apparir dell’alba Samuele chiamò Saulle, ch’era salito in sul tetto, dicendo: Levati, ed io ti accommiaterò. E Saulle si levò; e amendue, egli e Samuele, uscirono fuori.
E se levantaram de madrugada; e sucedeu que, quase ao subir da alva, chamou Samuel a Saul ao eirado, dizendo: Levanta-te, e despedir-te-ei. Levantou-se Saul, e saíram ambos para fora, ele e Samuel.
次日他們清早起來。黎明的時候, 撒母耳 呼叫在房頂上的 掃羅 ,說:「起來,我好送你回去。」 掃羅 就起來,和 撒母耳 二人一同到外面去。
