1The child Samuel ministered to Yahweh before Eli. Yahwehs word was precious in those days. There were not many visions, then.2 At that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see),3 and Gods lamp hadnt yet gone out, and Samuel had laid down in Yahwehs temple, where Gods ark was;4 Yahweh called Samuel; and he said, Here I am.5 He ran to Eli, and said, Here I am; for you called me. He said, I didnt call. Lie down again. He went and lay down.6 Yahweh called yet again, Samuel! Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here I am; for you called me. He answered, I didnt call, my son. Lie down again.7 Now Samuel didnt yet know Yahweh, neither was Yahwehs word yet revealed to him.8 Yahweh called Samuel again the third time. He arose and went to Eli, and said, Here I am; for you called me. Eli perceived that Yahweh had called the child.
