1 Samuel 9:25-27

Modern English Version

²⁵ When they had come down from the high place into the city, Samuel spoke with Saul up on the roof. ²⁶ They arose early, and it was at the rising of the dawn that Samuel called to Saul on the roof, saying, “Get up, that I may send you away.” So Saul arose, and both he and Samuel went to the street. ²⁷ As they were going down to the outskirts of the city, Samuel said to Saul, “Tell the servant to pass on before us.” So he passed on. “But you stand still and I will proclaim to you the word of God.”
