1 Samuel 11:12-15

12Afterward, the people said to Samuel, “Who said that Saul should not reign over us? Give us those men so we can kill them!”

13But Saul ordered, “No one will be executed this day, for today the Lord has provided deliverance in Israel.”

14Then Samuel said to the people, “Come, let’s go to Gilgal, so we can renew the kingship there.”

15So all the people went to Gilgal, and there in the Lord’s presence they made Saul king. There they sacrificed fellowship offerings in the Lord’s presence, and Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
