HOV
9. पूर्वकाल में तो इस्राएल में जब कोई परमेस्वर से प्रश्न करने जाता तब ऐसा कहता था, कि चलो, हम दर्शी के पास चलें; क्योंकि जो आज कल नबी कहलाता है वह पूर्वकाल में दर्शी कहलाता था।

ERVHI
9. (9-11) शाऊल ने अपने सेवक से कहा, “अच्छा सुझाव है! हम चलें!” वे नगर में वहाँ गए जहाँ परमेश्वर का व्यक्ति था। शाऊल और उसका सेवक पहाड़ी पर चढ़ते हुए नगर को जा रहे थे। रास्ते में वे कुछ युवतियों से मिले। युवतियाँ बाहर से पानी लेने जा रही थी। शाऊल और उसके सेवक ने युवतियों से पूछा, “क्या भविष्यवक्ता यहाँ है?” (प्राचीन काल में इस्राएल के निवासी नबियों को “भविष्यवक्ता” कहते थे। इसलिए यदि वे परमेश्वर से कुछ माँगना चाहते थे तो वे कहते थे, “हम लोग भविष्यवक्ता के पास चलें।”)
