The verses these writers stop at

• 16:7 But the LORD said to Samuel, "Pay no attention to his looks or to how tall he is, because I have rejected him. The LORD does not see in the way a person sees. A person looks at what is there for the eyes, but the LORD looks at the heart." 21
• 15:22 Samuel said, "Is the LORD as pleased with burnt offerings and sacrifices as with obeying the voice of the LORD? See, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to pay heed is better than the fat of rams. 9
• 3:10 The LORD came and took his stand there, and called as before, "Samuel! Samuel!" Samuel replied, "Speak, for your servant is listening." 7
• 2:8 He lifts the poor up out of the dust and raises those in need from the ash heap, to seat them with nobles and give them a throne of honor as their own. For the pillars of the earth belong to the LORD; on them he has set the world. 6
• 28:15 Samuel asked Saul, "Why have you disturbed me and brought me up?" Saul answered, "I am in deep trouble. The Philistines are making war on me, and God has turned away from me and answers me no longer, whether through the prophets or in dreams. That is why I have called on you, so that you can tell me what I ought to do." 6
• 1:27 I prayed for this boy, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. 5
• 24:16 When David had finished saying this to Saul, Saul said, "Is that your voice, David my son?" And Saul wept aloud. 5
