1 Samuel 9:22-24
Good News Translation
22 Then Samuel led Saul and his servant into the large room and gave them a place at the head of the table where the guests, about thirty in all, were seated. 23 Samuel said to the cook, “Bring the piece of meat I gave you, which I told you to set aside.” 24 So the cook brought the choice piece of the leg and placed it before Saul. Samuel[a] said, “Look, here is the piece that was kept for you. Eat it. I saved it for you to eat at this time with the people I invited.”[b]
So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
