1 Samuel 10:5-10

5Afterward you will come to 1 2the hill of God where the Philistine garrison is; and it shall be as soon as you have come there to the city, that you will meet 3a group of prophets coming down from the high place with harp, tambourine, flute, and a lyre before them, and 4they will be prophesying. 6Then 5the Spirit of the Lord will come upon you mightily, and 6you shall prophesy with them and be changed into another man. 7It shall be when these signs come to you, 7do for yourself what 8the occasion requires, for 9God is with you. 8And 10you shall go down before me to Gilgal; and behold, I will come down to you to offer burnt offerings and 11sacrifice peace offerings. 12You shall wait seven days until I come to you and show you what you should do.”

9Then it happened when he turned his back to leave Samuel, God 13changed 14his heart; and all those signs came about on that day. 10 15When they came to 16the hill there, behold, a group of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him mightily, so that he prophesied among them.
