This phrase expresses a single idea by using two words connected with and. The word farther tells in what way Saul would go from there. Alternate translation: [farther from there]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וּ⁠מְצָא֤וּ⁠ךָ שָּׁם֙ שְׁלֹשָׁ֣ה אֲנָשִׁ֔ים עֹלִ֥ים אֶל־הָ⁠אֱלֹהִ֖ים בֵּֽית־אֵ֑ל

and,they,will_find_you (Some words not found in UHB: and,you_will_pass_on from=there and,beyond and,you_will_come until oak/large_tree Tāⱱōr and,they,will_find_you there three men going_up to/towards the=ʼElohīm house_of -^ʼēl one(ms) lifting/taking three young_goats and,one lifting/taking three_of loaves_of food/grain/bread and,one lifting/taking skin_of wine )

See how you translated the word found in 9:11. Alternate translation: [And three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you there] or [And there you will meet three men going up to God at Bethel]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

עֹלִ֥ים אֶל־הָ⁠אֱלֹהִ֖ים בֵּֽית־אֵ֑ל

going_up to/towards the=ʼElohīm (Some words not found in UHB: and,you_will_pass_on from=there and,beyond and,you_will_come until oak/large_tree Tāⱱōr and,they,will_find_you there three men going_up to/towards the=ʼElohīm house_of -^ʼēl one(ms) lifting/taking three young_goats and,one lifting/taking three_of loaves_of food/grain/bread and,one lifting/taking skin_of wine )

See the discussion in the Introduction to 1 Samuel of how Hebrew speakers and writers marked travel for change in elevation, and see how you translated the comparable expression in 1:3. Alternate translation: [going to Bethel to worship God]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

נֹשֵׂ֣א ׀ שְׁלֹשָׁ֣ה גְדָיִ֗ים

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you_will_pass_on from=there and,beyond and,you_will_come until oak/large_tree Tāⱱōr and,they,will_find_you there three men going_up to/towards the=ʼElohīm house_of -^ʼēl one(ms) lifting/taking three young_goats and,one lifting/taking three_of loaves_of food/grain/bread and,one lifting/taking skin_of wine )

The verb that the ULT translates as carrying here does not necessarily mean that this man had lifted these goats off the ground and was holding them in his arms as he walked. That is the meaning in the case of the loaves of bread, but in the case of these goats, the verb probably means that the man was leading them along. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [leading three young goats]
