5. “After that you will come to the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines is; and it will happen, when you have come there to the city, that you will meet a band of prophets coming down from the high place with a lute, a tambourine, a pipe, and a harp before them; and they will be prophesying.
6. Then Yahweh’s Spirit will come mightily on you, and you will prophesy with them, and will be turned into another man.
7. Let it be, when these signs have come to you, that you do what is appropriate for the occasion; for God is with you.
8. “Go down ahead of me to Gilgal; and behold, I will come down to you, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings. Wait seven days, until I come to you, and show you what you are to do.”
9. It was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all those signs happened that day.
10. When they came there to the hill, behold, a band of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came mightily on him, and he prophesied among them.
11. When all who knew him before saw that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said to one another, “What is this that has come to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
12. One of the same place answered, “Who is their father?” Therefore it became a proverb, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
13. When he had finished prophesying, he came to the high place.
14. Saul’s uncle said to him and to his servant, “Where did you go?” He said, “To seek the donkeys. When we saw that they were not found, we came to Samuel.”
15. Saul’s uncle said, “Please tell me what Samuel said to you.”
16. Saul said to his uncle, “He told us plainly that the donkeys were found.” But concerning the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel spoke, he didn’t tell him.
