Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לְ⁠בָרֲכֽ⁠וֹ

to,bless,him

The author assumes that readers will understand that by bless, he means that Saul intended to greet or welcome Samuel. While this may have involved Saul wishing publicly that Yahweh would bless Samuel (that is, do good things for him), as in [15:13](../15/13.md), the focus is on Saul greeting or welcoming Samuel. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [so that he could welcome him] or [so that he could welcome him]
