As far as I know there's no simple spell to allow minor stage magic forms of divination:
Sortilege
Divination
Level: Brd 0, Sor/Wiz 0
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: 10 ft.
Target, Effect, or Area: See text
Duration: 1 hour
Saving Throw: See text
Spell Resistance: No
Sortilege is a form of simple divination used for practice and entertainment. Once cast a sortilege spell allows you to divine trivial pieces of information for one hour. The types of knowledge that can be gained are minor and have severe limitations.
A sortilege spell can be used to learn what is written on a card hidden from you, learn the sequence of cards in a deck, guess a number or a word a person is thinking, predict how a pair of dice will roll, read a page in a closed book, and other similar tricks. The major limitation of sortilege is that your target must be willing part of the spell. A person must think of a word for you to read in their mind, a hidden page must not be genuinely guarded, and the complexities of chance and clash of wills in gambling prevents being able to use sortilege to cheat others for profit. Sortilege is purposefully showy and any trick performed requires a sweeping arcane gesture towards your target.
