When they demanded a king, God gave them Kish's son Saul, from the tribe of Benjamin, for 40 years. 22 Then God removed Saul and made David their king, about whom he testified, "I have found that David, the son of Jesse, is a man after my own heart, who will carry out all my wishes.' 23 It was from this man's descendants that God, as he promised, brought to Israel a Savior, who is Jesus.
