⁷ Saul said to his servant, “If we go, what can we give the man? The food in our sacks is gone. We have no gift^(A) to take to the man of God. What do we have?”

⁸ he said to Hazael,^(A) “Take a gift^(B) with you and go to meet the man of God. Consult^(C) the Lord through him; ask him, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
