1 Samuel 9:15-17

15Now a day before Saul’s coming, 1the Lord had 2revealed this to Samuel, saying,

16“About this time tomorrow I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin, and 3you shall anoint him as ruler over My people Israel; and he will save My people from the hand of the Philistines. For 4I have considered My people, because their outcry has come to Me.”

17When Samuel saw Saul, the Lord 5said to him, “6Behold, the man of whom I spoke to you! This one shall rule over My people.”
