3Then you are to go on from there, and when you come to the oak-tree of Tabor, you will see three men going up to God to Beth-el, one having with him three young goats and another three cakes of bread and another a skin full of wine:
4They will say, Peace be with you, and will give you two cakes of bread, which you are to take from them.
5After that you will come to Gibeah, the hill of God, where an armed force of the Philistines is stationed: and when you come to the town, you will see a band of prophets coming down from the high place with instruments of music before them; and they will be acting like prophets:
6And the spirit of the Lord will come on you with power, and you will be acting like a prophet with them, and will be changed into another man.
7And when these signs come to you, see that you take the chance which is offered you; for God is with you.
8Then you are to go down before me to Gilgal, where I will come to you, for the offering of burned offerings and peace-offerings: go on waiting there for seven days till I come to you and make clear to you what you have to do.
9And it came about, that when he went away from Samuel, God gave him a changed heart: and all those signs took place that day.
