1 Samuel 19:22-24
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Saul Among the Prophets. 22 Finally Saul went to Ramah himself. Arriving at the large cistern in Secu, he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” Someone answered, “At Naioth in Ramah.” 23 As he walked from there to Naioth in Ramah, the spirit of God came upon him also, and he continued on, acting like a prophet until he reached Naioth in Ramah. 24 Then he, too, stripped himself of his garments and remained in a prophetic state in the presence of Samuel;[a] all that day and night he lay naked. That is why they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”(A)

1 Samuel 19:22-24
New International Version
22 Finally, he himself left for Ramah and went to the great cistern at Seku. And he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?”
“Over in Naioth at Ramah,” they said.
23 So Saul went to Naioth at Ramah. But the Spirit of God came even on him, and he walked along prophesying(A) until he came to Naioth. 24 He stripped(B) off his garments, and he too prophesied in Samuel’s(C) presence. He lay naked all that day and all that night. This is why people say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”(D)
