6He said to him, “Look now, there is a man of God in this city, and the man is held in honor; everything that he says surely comes to pass. Now let us go there. Perhaps he will tell us the way we should go.”

7Then Saul said to his young man, “But look, if we go, what will we bring to the man? For the bread is gone from our bags, and there is no gift to bring to the man of God. What do we have?”

8The young man answered Saul again and said, “Look, I have in my hand a quarter shekel of silver. I will give it to the man of God, and he will tell us our way.”
