1 Samuel 9:14-16

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁴ So they went up to the city. Just as they were coming into the city, there was Samuel coming toward them on his way to the high place.

¹⁵ Now the Lord had revealed this to Samuel the day before Saul came. He had told him, ¹⁶ “About this time tomorrow I will send to you a man from the land of Benjamin, and you are to anoint him to be leader over my people Israel. He will save my people from the hand of the Philistines, for I am looking out for my people, because their cry for help has come to me.”
