OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_said Shāʼūl to_servant_his and_see/lo/see we_will_go and_what will_we_bring to_the_man if/because the_bread it_has_been_used_up from_sacks_our and_present there_[is]_not to_bring to_man the_ʼElohīm what have_we.
OET (OET-RV) “Ok, then. We can go there,” Sha’ul responded, “but what can we give the man? We don’t have any more food in our bags, and we never brought along a gift. What else do we have?”
(Occurrence 0) what can we bring the man?
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Shāʼūl to,servant,his and=see/lo/see! go and,what bring to_the,man that/for/because/then/when the,bread gone from,sacks,our and,present not to=bring to,man the=ʼElohīm what have,we )
Giving a gift is a sign of respect for the man of God.
(Occurrence 0) man of God

This phrase usually means a prophet of Yahweh. See how you translated this in 1 Samuel 2:27. Alternate translation: “a man who hears and tells words from God”
9:7 anything to offer him: Evidently, it was customary to take a gift when one sought the help of a prophet (cp. 1 Kgs 14:2-3; 2 Kgs 5:5, 15; 8:8). Some false prophets demanded gifts in return for their services (Mic 3:11). Saul’s concern might reflect the spiritual ignorance of thinking that advice from a prophet of God could be purchased (Acts 8:20).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
