1 Samuel 9:6-11 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

6. And he saith to him, `Lo, I pray thee, a man of God [is] in this city, and the man is honoured; all that he speaketh doth certainly come; now, we go there, it may be he doth declare to us our way on which we have gone.'

7. And Saul saith to his young man, `And lo, we go, and what do we bring in to the man? for the bread hath gone from our vessels, and a present there is not to bring in to the man of God--what [is] with us?'

8. And the young man addeth to answer Saul, and saith, `Lo, there is found with me a fourth of a shekel of silver: and I have given to the man of God, and he hath declared to us our way.'

9. Formerly in Israel, thus said the man in his going to seek God, `Come and we go unto the seer,' for the `prophet' of to-day is called formerly `the seer.'

10. And Saul saith to his young man, `Thy word [is] good; come, we go;' and they go unto the city where the man of God [is].

11. They are going up in the ascent of the city, and have found young women going out to draw water, and say to them, `Is the seer in this [place]?'
