8. And the servant answered Saul again, and said, “Look, I have here in my hand a quarter of a shekel of silver. I will give it to the man of God, to tell us our way.”
9. (Formerly in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, thus he said, “Come, and let us go to the seer.” For he that is now called a prophet was formerly called a seer.)
10. Then Saul said to his servant, “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, they found young women going out to draw water and said to them, “Is the seer here?”
12. And they answered them and said, “He is. See, he is ahead of you. Hurry now, for today he came to the city, because there is a sacrifice for the people in the high place today.
13. As soon as you come into the city, you will find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. For the people will not eat until he comes, because he must bless the sacrifice. Afterwards those invited will eat. Now therefore, go up, for about this time of the day you will find him there.”
14. So they went up into the city. And when they entered, Samuel was coming toward them to go up to the high place.
