And he said unto him, Behold now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honourable man; all that he saith cometh surely to pass: now let us go thither; peradventure he can shew us our way that we should go.
And he said to him, 'Look, there is a man of God in this city, and he is a respected man. Everything he says comes true. Let's go to him - maybe he can show us which way we should go.'
The servant suggests they visit a respected prophet in the city who might be able to help them find their way, since everything he predicts comes true.
