1 Samuel 9:12-14

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹² The women answered, “Yes, he is ahead of you. Hurry, he just now came to the city, because there’s a sacrifice^(A) for the people at the high place^(B) today. ¹³ If you go quickly, you can catch up with him before he goes to the high place to eat. The people won’t eat until he comes because he must bless the sacrifice; after that, the guests can eat. Go up immediately—you can find him now.” ¹⁴ So they went up toward the city.

Saul and his attendant were entering the city when they saw Samuel coming toward them on his way to the high place.
