1 Samuel 9:6-9
6But he saidH559 to him, “BeholdH2009 nowH4994, there is 1a manH376 of GodH430 in thisH2088 cityH5892, and the manH376 is heldH3513 inH3513 honorH3513; 2everythingH3605 that he saysH1696 definitelyH935 comesH935 true. NowH6258 let’s goH1980 thereH8033, 3perhapsH194 he can tellH5046 us about our journeyH1870 on whichH834 we have setH1980 out.”
7Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to his servantH5288, “But lookH2009, if we goH1980, whatH4100 shall we bringH935 the manH376? For the breadH3899 isH235 goneH235 from our sacksH3627 and thereH369 isH369 4noH369 giftH8670 to bringH935 to the manH376 of GodH430. WhatH4100 do we haveH854?”
8The servantH5288 answeredH6030 SaulH7586 againH3254 and saidH559, “LookH2009, I haveH4672 in my handH3027 a fourthH7253 of a shekelH8255 of silverH3701; I will giveH5414 it to the manH376 of GodH430 and he will 5tellH5046 us our wayH1870.”
9(PreviouslyH6440 in IsraelH3478, when a manH376 wentH1980 to inquireH1875 of GodH430, he used to sayH559, “ComeH1980, and let’s goH1980 to the seerH7203”; for he who is called a prophetH5030 nowH3117 was previouslyH6440 calledH7121 6a seerH7203.)
