1 Samuel 10:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 ¶ And when they came thither to the hill, behold, the company of Prophets met him, and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he [a]prophesied among them.
11 Therefore all the people that knew him before, when they saw that he prophesied among the Prophets, said each to other, What is come unto the son of Kish? (A)is Saul also among the Prophets?
12 And one of the same place answered, and said, But who is their [b]father? Therefore it was a proverb, Is Saul also among the [c]Prophets?
