1 Samuel 9:4-6

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴ He passed through ^(A)the hill country of Ephraim and passed through the land of ^(B)Shalishah, but they did not find them. Then they passed through the land of ^(C)Shaalim, but they were not there. Then he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they did not find them.

⁵ When they came to the land of ^(D)Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, “Come, and let us return, ^(E)or else my father will cease to be concerned about the donkeys and will become anxious for us.” ⁶ He said to him, “Behold now, there is ^(F)a man of God in this city, and the man is held in honor; ^(G)all that he says surely comes true. Now let us go there, ^(H)perhaps he can tell us about our journey on which we have set out.”
