7 Then Saul said to his servant, “But look, if we go, awhat shall we bring the man? For the bread in our vessels is all gone, and there is no present to bring to the man of God. What do we have?”
8 And the servant answered Saul again and said, “Look, I have here at hand one-fourth of a shekel of silver. I will give that to the man of God, to tell us our way.”
9 (Formerly in Israel, when a man awent to inquire of God, he spoke thus: “Come, let us go to the seer”; for he who is now called a prophet was formerly called ba seer.)
10 Then Saul said to his servant,1 “Well said; come, let us go.” So they went to the city where the man of God was.
11 As they went up the hill to the city, athey met some young women going out to draw water, and said to them, “Is the seer here?”
