And the Lord said to Samuel, How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go; I will send you to Jesse, to Bethlehem; for I have seen among his sons a king for Me.

And there shall come forth a Rod out of the root of Jesse, and a blossom shall come up from [his] root;

And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, and He that shall arise to rule over the Gentiles; in Him shall the Gentiles trust, and His rest shall be glorious.

Salmon begot Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse,

the [son] of Jesse, the [son] of Obed, the [son] of Boaz, the [son] of Salmon, the [son] of Nahshon,

And removing him, He raised up for them David as king, to whom He also said bearing witness, 'I have found David the son of Jesse, [to be] a man in accordance with My [own] heart, who will do all My will.'

And again, Isaiah says: "There shall be the root of Jesse; and He that shall rise to rule over the Gentiles, in Him the Gentiles shall hope."
