Then it happened when Saul turned his back to leave Samuel, God changed his heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.
Saul’s uncle said to him and to his servant, “Where did you go?” And Saul said, “To look for the donkeys. And when we saw that they were nowhere to be found, we went to Samuel [for help].”
