9. (Formerly in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, he would say: “Come, let us go up to the seer.” For the prophet of today was formerly called a seer.)
10. So Saul said to his servant, “Your suggestion is a good one. Come, let us go.” And they went to the town where the man of God was.
11. They were going up the ascent of the town when they found young women going out to draw water. They said to them, “Is there the seer here?”
12. They answered them and said, “There is. Look, he is just in front of you! Hurry now, because he has come to the town today, because there is a sacrifice for the people today at the high place.
13. As soon as you enter the town, 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. Then afterward the invited guests will eat. So then, go up, because you will find him today!”
