1 Samuel 9:8 in Context — 1 Samuel 9

6 E ele lhe respondeu: Eis que agora há nesta cidade um homem de Deus, que é homem ilustre: todas as coisas que ele disser, sem dúvida virão a suceder. Vamos pois ali; talvez nos ensinará nosso caminho por onde havemos de ir.

7 E Saul respondeu a seu criado: Vamos agora: mas que levaremos ao homem? Porque o pão de nossos alforjes se acabou, e não temos que presentear ao homem de Deus: que temos?

8 Então voltou o criado a responder a Saul, dizendo: Eis que se acha em minha mão a quarta parte de um siclo de prata: isto darei ao homem de Deus, porque nos declare nosso caminho.

9 (Antigamente em Israel qualquer um que ia a consultar a Deus, dizia assim: Vinde e vamos até o vidente: porque o que agora se chama profeta, antigamente era chamado vidente).

10 Disse então Saul a seu criado: Bem dizes; eia, pois, vamos. E foram à cidade de onde estava o homem de Deus.
