⁵After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines is: and when thou shalt be come there into the city, thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place, with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp before them, and they shall be prophesying.

⁶And the Spirit of the Lord shall come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be changed into another man.

⁷When therefore these signs shall happen to thee, do whatsoever thy hand shall find, for the Lord is with thee.

⁸And thou shalt go down before me to Galgal, (for I will come down to thee), that thou mayst offer an oblation, and sacrifice victims of peace: seven days shalt thou wait, till I come to thee, and I will shew thee what thou art to do.

⁹So when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave unto him another heart, and all these things came to pass that day.

¹⁰And they came to the foresaid hill, and behold a company of prophets met him: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he prophesied in the midst of them.

¹¹And all that had known him yesterday and the day before, seeing that he was with the prophets, and prophesied, said to each other: What is this that hath happened to the son of Cis? is Saul also among the prophets?

¹²And one answered another, saying: And who is their father? therefore it became a proverb: Is Saul also among the prophets?

¹³And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
