And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets? / And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets? / And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.

It doesn't have to be characterized as, We're going to see an enemy or we're going to see this, we're going to see that, ... We're going to talk to another powerful nation on arranged agenda items where we have an opportunity to cooperate and where we have an opportunity to disagree.
