Contemporary English Version
1 Samuel 10:6-8
Contemporary English Version
6 The Spirit of the Lord will suddenly take control of you.[a] You'll become a different person and start prophesying right along with them. 7 After these things happen, do whatever you think is right! God will help you.
8 Then go to Gilgal. I'll come a little later, so wait for me. It may even take a week for me to get there, but when I come, I'll offer sacrifices to please the Lord and to ask for his blessings. I'll also tell you what to do next.
