8But the servant said in answer, I have here a fourth part of a shekel of silver: I will give that to the man of God, and he will give us directions about our way.
9(In the past in Israel, when a man went to get directions from God, he said, Come let us go to the Seer, for he who now is named Prophet was in those days given the name of Seer.)
10Then Saul said to his servant, You have said well; come, let us go. So they went to the town where the man of God was.
11And when they were on the way up to the town, they saw some young girls going out to get water and said to them, Is the seer here?
12And they said, He is; in fact he is before you: go quickly now, for he has come into the town today, for the people are making an offering in the high place today:
13When you come into the town you will see him straight away, before he goes up to the high place for the feast: the people are waiting for his blessing before starting the feast, and after that the guests will take part in it. So go up now and you will see him.
14So they went up to the town, and when they came inside the town, Samuel came face to face with them on his way to the high place.
