1 Samuel 10:9-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 When Saul turned around[a] to leave Samuel, God changed his heart,[b] and all the signs came about that day. 10 When Saul and his attendant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met him. Then the Spirit of God took control of him, and he prophesied along with them.
11 Everyone who knew him previously and saw him prophesy with the prophets asked each other, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”(A)
12 Then a man who was from there asked, “And who is their father?”(B)
As a result, “Is Saul also among the prophets?” became a popular saying.

New International Version
Saul Made King
9 As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed(A) Saul’s heart, and all these signs(B) were fulfilled(C) that day. 10 When he and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the Spirit(D) of God came powerfully upon him, and he joined in their prophesying.(E) 11 When all those who had formerly known him saw him prophesying with the prophets, they asked each other, “What is this(F) that has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”(G)
12 A man who lived there answered, “And who is their father?” So it became a saying: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”(H)
