5 It is after that that you will come to the hill of the [true] God,+ where there is a garrison+ of the Phi·lisʹtines. And it should come about that at the time of your coming there to the city, you will certainly meet a group of prophets+ coming down from the high place,+ and ahead of them a stringed instrument+ and tambourine+ and flute+ and harp,+ while they are speaking as prophets.

4 And all Israel itself heard tell: “Saul has struck down a garrison of the Phi·lisʹtines, and now Israel has become foul-smelling+ among the Phi·lisʹtines.” So the people were called together to follow Saul to Gilʹgal.+

23 Now an outpost+ of the Phi·lisʹtines would sally forth to the ravine pass of Michʹmash.+
