1 Samuel 9:7-9

Modern English Version

⁷ Then Saul said to his servant, “But listen, if we go, what will we bring the man? For the bread is gone from our satchels, and there is no present to bring to the man of God. What do we have?”

⁸ And the servant answered Saul again, and said, “Look, I have here in my hand a quarter of a shekel^[a] 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.)
