1 Samuel 10:20-22

New International Reader's Version

²⁰ Then Samuel had each tribe of Israel come forward. The tribe of Benjamin was chosen by casting lots. ²¹ Next he had the tribe of Benjamin come forward, family group by family group. Matri’s group was chosen. Finally Saul, the son of Kish, was chosen. But when people looked for him, they realized he wasn’t there. ²² They needed more help from the Lord. So they asked him, “Has the man come here yet?”

The Lord said, “Yes. He has hidden himself among the supplies.”
