1 Samuel 9:11-13

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹¹ As they were climbing the hill to the city, they found some young women coming out to draw water^(A) and asked, “Is the seer here?”

¹² The women answered, “Yes, he is ahead of you. Hurry, he just now came to the city, because there’s a sacrifice^(B) for the people at the high place^(C) today. ¹³ If you go quickly, you can catch up with him before he goes to the high place to eat. The people won’t eat until he comes because he must bless the sacrifice; after that, the guests can eat. Go up immediately—you can find him now.”
