1SA-3:1 And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before
Eli. And the
word of the LORD was precious in those days; [there was] no open
vision.
1SA-3:2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli [was] laid
down in his
place, and his eyes began to wax dim, [that] he could not see;
1SA-3:3 And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the
LORD, where the
ark of God [was], and Samuel was laid down [to sleep];
1SA-3:4 That the LORD called Samuel: and he answered, Here [am]
I.
1SA-3:5 And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here [am] I; for thou
calledst me. And
he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down.
1SA-3:6 And the LORD called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose
and went to
Eli, and said, Here [am] I; for thou didst call me. And he
answered, I called
not, my son; lie down again.
1SA-3:7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the
word of the
LORD yet revealed unto him.
1SA-3:8 And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he
arose and
went to Eli, and said, Here [am] I; for thou didst call me. And
Eli perceived
that the LORD had called the child.
1SA-3:9 Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it
shall be, if he
call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD; for thy servant
heareth. So
Samuel went and lay down in his place.
1SA-3:10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other
times, Samuel,
Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.
1SA-3:11 And the LORD said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing
in Israel, at
which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle.
1SA-3:12 In that day I will perform against Eli all [things]
which I have
spoken concerning his house: when I begin, I will also make an
end.
1SA-3:13 For I have told him that I will judge his house for
ever for the
iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile,
and he
restrained them not.
1SA-3:14 And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that
the iniquity
of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering
for ever.
1SA-3:15 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors
of the house
of the LORD. And Samuel feared to show Eli the vision.
1SA-3:16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And
he answered,
Here [am] I.
1SA-3:17 And he said, What [is] the thing that [the LORD] hath
said unto
thee? I pray thee hide [it] not from me: God do so to thee, and
more also, if
thou hide [any] thing from me of all the things that he said
unto thee.
1SA-3:18 And Samuel told him every whit, and hid nothing from
him. And he
said, It [is] the LORD: let him do what seemeth him good.
1SA-3:19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did
let none of his
words fall to the ground.
1SA-3:20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that
Samuel [was]
established [to be] a prophet of the LORD.
1SA-3:21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD
revealed himself
to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
