1 Samuel 9:14-16

14So they went up to the city. And as they came into the city, there was Samuel coming out toward them to go up to the high place.

15Now a day before Saul came, the Lord had informed Samuel [of this], saying,

16“About this time tomorrow I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him as leader over My people Israel; and he will save My people from the hand of the Philistines. For I have looked upon [the distress of] My people, because their cry [for help] has come to Me.”
