9. ఇప్పుడు ప్రవక్తయను పేరు నొందువాడు పూర్వము దీర్ఘదర్శియనిపించుకొనెను. పూర్వము ఇశ్రా యేలీయులలో దేవునియొద్ద విచారణ చేయుటకై ఒకడు బయలుదేరినయెడలమనము దీర్ఘదర్శకుని యొద్దకు పోవు దము రండని జనులు చెప్పుకొనుట వాడుక.

9. (9-11) “ఇది మంచి ఆలోచన! వెళదాం పద” అన్నాడు సౌలు. కనుక వారిద్దరూ కలసి దైవ జనుడుండే పట్టణం వైపు బయలుదేరి వెళ్లారు. సౌలు, “సేవకుడు ఆ పట్టణానికి కొండ ఎక్కి వెళ్తున్నారు. మార్గంలో వారు కొందరు యువతులను కలుసుకొన్నారు. వారు నీళ్లకోసం బయటికి వస్తున్నారు.”“దీర్ఘదర్శి ఇక్కడ ఉన్నాడా?” అని వారు ఆ యువతులను అడిగారు. (గతంలో ఇశ్రాయేలీయులు ప్రవక్తను, “దీర్ఘదర్శి” అని పిలిచేవారు. అందుచేత దేవుని నుండి వారు ఏదైనా అడిగి తెలుసుకోవాలనుకొంటే, “దీర్ఘదర్శి దగ్గరకు పోదాం పదండి” అనే వాళ్లు).
