1 Samuel 9:23-25
Revised Standard Version
23 And Samuel said to the cook, “Bring the portion I gave you, of which I said to you, ‘Put it aside.’” 24 So the cook took up the leg and the upper portion[a] and set them before Saul; and Samuel said, “See, what was kept is set before you. Eat; because it was kept for you until the hour appointed, that you might eat with the guests.”[b]
So Saul ate with Samuel that day. 25 And when they came down from the high place into the city, a bed was spread for Saul[c] upon the roof, and he lay down to sleep.
