Orthodox Jewish Bible
8 And the na’ar answered Sha’ul again, and said, Hinei, I have here at hand the fourth part of a shekel of kesef; that will I give to the Ish HaElohim, to tell us darkeinu (our way).
9 Beforetime in Yisroel, when an ish went to inquire of Elohim, thus he spoke, Come, and let us go to the ro’eh (seer): for he that is now called a navi was beforetime called a ro’eh (seer).
10 Then said Sha’ul to his na’ar, Well said; come, let us go. So they went unto the town where the Ish HaElohim was.

1 Samuel 9:8-10
New International Version
8 The servant answered him again. “Look,” he said, “I have a quarter of a shekel[a] of silver. I will give it to the man of God so that he will tell us what way to take.” 9 (Formerly in Israel, if someone went to inquire(A) of God, they would say, “Come, let us go to the seer,” because the prophet of today used to be called a seer.)(B)
10 “Good,” Saul said to his servant. “Come, let’s go.” So they set out for the town where the man of God was.
