1 Samuel 9:6-8

The Voice

Servant: ⁶ I hear there is a man of God in this village, a man who is respected because what he predicts is always true. Before we go home, let’s go and talk to him; maybe he will have some guidance about this journey we have begun.

Saul: ⁷ But if we go, what will we bring to this man? We can’t show up empty-handed, but even the bread in our sacks is gone. I have nothing to give the man of God. Do you have anything?

Servant: ⁸ I have a tenth of an ounce of silver. I will give it to the man of God, and maybe he can tell us where to go.
