1 Samuel 3:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 Now the boy Samuel continued serving the LORD under Eli's supervision. Word from the LORD was rare in those days; revelatory visions were infrequent.
2 Eli's eyes had begun to fail, so that he was unable to see well. At that time he was lying down in his place,
3 and the lamp of God had not yet been extinguished. Samuel was lying down in the temple of the LORD as well; the ark of God was also there.
4 The LORD called to Samuel, and he replied, "Here I am!"
5 Then he ran to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." But Eli said, "I didn't call you. Go back and lie down." So he went back and lay down.
6 The LORD again called, "Samuel!" So Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." But Eli said, "I didn't call you, my son. Go back and lie down."
7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD; the word of the LORD had not yet been revealed to him.
8 Then the LORD called Samuel a third time. So he got up and went to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me!" Eli then realized that it was the LORD who was calling the boy.
9 So Eli said to Samuel, "Go back and lie down. When he calls you, say, "Speak, LORD, for your servant is listening." So Samuel went back and lay down in his place.
10 Then the LORD came and stood nearby, calling as he had previously done, "Samuel! Samuel!" Samuel replied, "Speak, for your servant is listening!"
11 The LORD said to Samuel, "Look! I am about to do something in Israel; when anyone hears about it, both of his ears will tingle.
12 On that day I will carry out against Eli everything that I spoke about his house� from start to finish!
13 You should tell him that I am about to judge his house forever because of the sin that he knew about. For his sons were cursing God, and he did not rebuke them.
14 Therefore I swore an oath to the house of Eli, 'The sin of the house of Eli can never be forgiven by sacrifice or by grain offering.'"
15 So Samuel lay down until morning. Then he opened the doors of the LORD's house. But Samuel was afraid to tell Eli about the vision.
16 However, Eli called Samuel and said, "Samuel, my son!" He replied, "Here I am."
17 Eli said, "What message did he speak to you? Don't conceal it from me. God will judge you severely if you conceal from me anything that he said to you!"
18 So Samuel told him everything. He did not hold back anything from him. Eli said, "The LORD will do what he pleases."
19 Samuel continued to grow, and the LORD was with him. None of his prophecies fell to the ground unfulfilled.
20 All Israel from Dan to Beer Sheba realized that Samuel was confirmed as a prophet of the LORD.
21 Then the LORD again appeared in Shiloh, for it was in Shiloh that the LORD had revealed himself to Samuel through the word of the LORD.
1 And the child H5288 Samuel H8050 ministered H8334 unto H853 the LORD H3068 before H6440 Eli. H5941 And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 was H1961 precious H3368 in those H1992 days; H3117 there was no H369 open H6555 vision. H2377
2 And it came to pass H1961 at that time, H3117 when H1931 Eli H5941 was laid down H7901 in his place, H4725 and his eyes H5869 began H2490 to wax dim, H3544 that he could H3201 not H3808 see; H7200
3 And ere H2962 the lamp H5216 of God H430 went out H3518 in the temple H1964 of the LORD, H3068 where H834 H8033 the ark H727 of God H430 was , and Samuel H8050 was laid down H7901 to sleep ;
4 That the LORD H3068 called H7121 H413 Samuel: H8050 and he answered, H559 Here H2009 am I.
5 And he ran H7323 unto H413 Eli, H5941 and said, H559 Here H2009 am I; for H3588 thou calledst H7121 me . And he said, H559 I called H7121 not; H3808 lie down H7901 again. H7725 And he went H1980 and lay down. H7901
6 And the LORD H3068 called H7121 yet H5750 again, H3254 Samuel. H8050 And Samuel H8050 arose H6965 and went H1980 to H413 Eli, H5941 and said, H559 Here H2009 am I; for H3588 thou didst call H7121 me . And he answered, H559 I called H7121 not, H3808 my son; H1121 lie down H7901 again. H7725
7 Now Samuel H8050 did not yet H2962 know H3045 H853 the LORD, H3068 neither was the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 yet H2962 revealed H1540 unto H413 him.
8 And the LORD H3068 called H7121 Samuel H8050 again H3254 the third H7992 time . And he arose H6965 and went H1980 to H413 Eli, H5941 and said, H559 Here H2009 am I; for H3588 thou didst call H7121 me . And Eli H5941 perceived H995 that H3588 the LORD H3068 had called H7121 the child. H5288
9 Therefore Eli H5941 said H559 unto Samuel, H8050 Go, H1980 lie down: H7901 and it shall be, H1961 if H518 he call H7121 H413 thee , that thou shalt say, H559 Speak, H1696 LORD; H3068 for H3588 thy servant H5650 heareth. H8085 So Samuel H8050 went H1980 and lay down H7901 in his place. H4725
10 And the LORD H3068 came, H935 and stood, H3320 and called H7121 as at other times H6471 H6471 , Samuel, H8050 Samuel. H8050 Then Samuel H8050 answered, H559 Speak; H1696 for H3588 thy servant H5650 heareth. H8085
11 And the LORD H3068 said H559 to H413 Samuel, H8050 Behold, H2009 I H595 will do H6213 a thing H1697 in Israel, H3478 at which H834 both H8147 the ears H241 of every one H3605 that heareth H8085 it shall tingle. H6750
12 In that H1931 day H3117 I will perform H6965 against H413 Eli H5941 H853 all H3605 things which H834 I have spoken H1696 concerning H413 his house: H1004 when I begin, H2490 I will also make an end. H3615
13 For I have told H5046 him that H3588 I H589 will judge H8199 H853 his house H1004 forever H5704 H5769 for the iniquity H5771 which H834 he knoweth; H3045 because H3588 his sons H1121 made themselves vile, H7043 and he restrained H3543 them not. H3808
14 And therefore H3651 I have sworn H7650 unto the house H1004 of Eli, H5941 that the iniquity H5771 of Eli's H5941 house H1004 shall not H518 be purged H3722 with sacrifice H2077 nor offering H4503 forever H5704 H5769 .
15 And Samuel H8050 lay H7901 until H5704 the morning, H1242 and opened the doors H1817 of the house H1004 of the LORD. H3068 And Samuel H8050 feared H3372 to show H4480 H5046 H413 Eli the vision. H4759
16 Then Eli H5941 called H7121 H853 Samuel, H8050 and said, H559 Samuel, H8050 my son. H1121 And he answered, H559 Here H2009 am I.
17 And he said, H559 What H4100 is the thing H1697 that H834 the LORD hath said H1696 unto H413 thee? I pray thee H4994 hide H3582 it not H408 from H4480 me: God H430 do H6213 so H3541 to thee , and more H3254 also, H3541 if H518 thou hide H3582 any thing H1697 from H4480 me of all H4480 H3605 the things H1697 that H834 he said H1696 unto H413 thee.
18 And Samuel H8050 told H5046 him H853 every H3605 whit, H1697 and hid H3582 nothing H3808 from H4480 him . And he said, H559 It H1931 is the LORD: H3068 let him do H6213 what seemeth H5869 him good. H2896
19 And Samuel H8050 grew, H1431 and the LORD H3068 was H1961 with H5973 him , and did let none H3808 H4480 H3605 of his words H1697 fall H5307 to the ground. H776
20 And all H3605 Israel H3478 from Dan H4480 H1835 even to H5704 Beer- H884 sheba knew H3045 that H3588 Samuel H8050 was established H539 to be a prophet H5030 of the LORD. H3068
21 And the LORD H3068 appeared H7200 again H3254 in Shiloh: H7887 for H3588 the LORD H3068 revealed himself H1540 to H413 Samuel H8050 in Shiloh H7887 by the word H1697 of the LORD. H3068
