1 Samuel 10:9-12

Saul Becomes King

10:9 As Saul¹ turned² to leave Samuel, God changed his inmost person.³ All these signs happened on that very day. 10:10 When Saul and his servant⁴ arrived at Gibeah, a company of prophets was coming out to meet him. Then the spirit of God rushed upon Saul⁵ and he prophesied among them. 10:11 When everyone who had known him previously saw him prophesying with the prophets, the people all asked one another, “What on earth has happened to the son of Kish? Does even Saul belong with the prophets?”

10:12 A man who was from there replied, “And who is their father?” Therefore this became a proverb: “Is even Saul among the prophets?”
