1 Samuel 10
Samuel anointed Saul as King over Israel, pouring oil over his head, saying " I am doing this because the Lord has appointed you ruler over His special possession". The "Spirit of God came powerfully upon Saul" , he was "changed into a different person", and the Lord "gave him a new heart". Samuel then gathered all the people of Israel and said, "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has declared: I brought you from Egypt and rescued you from the Egyptians and from all of the nations that were oppressing you. But though I have rescued you from your misery and distress, you have rejected your God today and have said, ‘No, we want a king instead!" All the people shouted, "Long live the king".
