I will give it to the man of God so that he will tell us what way to go." 9 (Formerly in Israel, when people went to inquire of God, they would say, "Come, let us go to the seer," because the prophet of today used to be called a seer.) 10 Saul said to his servant, "Good idea. Let’s go." So they set out for the town where the man of God was.
