1 Samuel 10:2-16
2When you goH1980 from me todayH3117, then you will findH4672 twoH8147 menH376 closeH5973 to 1Rachel’sH7354 tombH6900 in the territoryH1366 of BenjaminH1144 at ZelzahH6766; and they will sayH559 to you, ‘2The donkeysH860 whichH834 you wentH1980 to lookH1245 for have been foundH4672. Now beholdH2009, your fatherH1 has 3ceasedH5203 to be concernedH1697 about the donkeysH860 and is anxiousH1672 for you, sayingH559, “WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 about my sonH1121?”’ 3Then you will goH2498 on furtherH1973 from thereH8033, and you will comeH935 as farH5704 as the 45oakH436 of TaborH8396, and thereH8033 threeH7969 menH376 goingH5927 up 6to GodH430 at BethelH1008 will meetH4672 you, oneH259 carryingH5375 threeH7969 youngH1423 goatsH1423, anotherH259 carryingH5375 threeH7969 loavesH3603 of breadH3899, and anotherH259 carryingH5375 a jugH5035 of wineH3196; 4and they will greetH7592H7965 you and giveH5414 you twoH8147 loaves of breadH3899, which you will acceptH3947 from their handH3027. 5AfterwardH310H3651 you will comeH935 to 78the hillH1389 of GodH430 whereH834H8033 the PhilistineH6430 garrisonH5333 is; and it shall be as soon as you have comeH935 thereH8033 to the cityH5892, that you will meetH6293 9a groupH2256 of prophetsH5030 comingH3381 downH3381 from the highH1116 placeH1116 with harpH5035, tambourineH8596, fluteH2485, and a lyreH3658 beforeH6440 them, and 10they will be prophesyingH5012. 6Then 11the SpiritH7307 of the LordH3068 will comeH6743 upon you mightilyH6743, and 12you shall prophesyH5012 with them and be changedH2015 into anotherH312 manH376. 7It shall be whenH3588 theseH428 signsH226 comeH935 to you, 13doH6213 for yourself whatH834 14the occasionH3027 requiresH4672, for 15GodH430 is with you. 8And 16you shall goH3381 downH3381 beforeH6440 me to GilgalH1537; and beholdH2009, I will comeH3381 downH3381 to you to offerH5927 burntH5930 offeringsH5930 and 17sacrificeH2076 peaceH8002 offeringsH8002. 18You shall waitH3176 sevenH7651 daysH3117 untilH5704 I comeH935 to you and showH3045 you whatH834 you should doH6213.”
9Then it happenedH1961 when he turnedH6437 his backH7926 to leaveH1980H4480H5973 SamuelH8050, GodH430 19changedH2015 20his heartH3820; and allH3605 thoseH428 signsH226 cameH935 about on that dayH3117. 1021When they cameH935 to 22the hillH1389 thereH8033, beholdH2009, a groupH2256 of prophetsH5030 metH7122 him; and the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 cameH6743 upon him mightilyH6743, so that he prophesiedH5012 amongH8432 them. 11It cameH1961 about, when allH3605 who knewH3045 him previouslyH4480H8032H865 sawH7200 that he prophesiedH5012 nowH2009 with the prophetsH5030, that the peopleH5971 saidH559 to oneH376 anotherH7453, “WhatH4100 has happenedH1961 to the sonH1121 of KishH7027? 23Is SaulH7586 alsoH1571 among the prophetsH5030?” 12A manH376 thereH4480H8033 saidH559, “Now, whoH4310 is their fatherH1?” ThereforeH5921H3651 it becameH1961 a proverbH4912: “24Is SaulH7586 alsoH1571 among the prophetsH5030?” 13When he had finishedH3615 prophesyingH5012, he cameH935 to the highH1116 placeH1116.
14Now 25Saul’sH7586 uncleH1730 saidH559 to him and his servantH5288, “WhereH575 did you goH1980?” And he saidH559, “26To lookH1245 for the donkeysH860. When we sawH7200 that they could not be foundH369, we wentH935 to SamuelH8050.” 15Saul’sH7586 uncleH1730 saidH559, “PleaseH4994 tellH5046 me whatH4100 SamuelH8050 saidH559 to you.” 16So SaulH7586 saidH559 to his uncleH1730, “27He toldH5046 us plainlyH5046 that the donkeysH860 had been foundH4672.” But he did not tellH5046 him about the matterH1697 of the kingdomH4410 whichH834 SamuelH8050 had mentionedH559.
