1 Samuel 9:8-12 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

8. The servant again responded to Saul, and he said: "Behold, there is found in my hand a coin of the fourth part of a stater. Let us give it to the man of God, so that he may reveal to us our way."

9. (In past times, in Israel, anyone going to consult God would speak in this way, "Come, and let us go to the seer." For one who is called a prophet today, in past times was called a seer.)

10. And Saul said to his servant: "Your word is very good. Come, let us go." And they went into the city, where the man of God was.

11. And as they were ascending the slope to the city, they found some young women going out to draw water. And they said to them, "Is the seer here?"

12. And responding, they said to them: "He is. Behold, he is ahead of you. Hurry now. For he came into the city today, since there is a sacrifice for the people today, on the high place.
