1 Samuel 9:22-24

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²² Samuel took Saul and his servant, brought them to the banquet hall, and gave them a place at the head of the thirty^[a] or so men who had been invited. ²³ Then Samuel said to the cook, ‘Get the portion of meat that I gave you and told you to set aside.’

²⁴ The cook picked up the thigh^(A) and what was attached to it and set it before Saul. Then Samuel said, ‘Notice that the reserved piece is set before you. Eat it because it was saved for you for this solemn event at the time I said, “I’ve invited the people.” ’ So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
