Samuel Answers God's Call







Samuel Answers God's Call

1-21
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. H · G · S  no open vision
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; H · G · S  
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; H · G · S  temple of the LORD
4 That the LORD called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I. H · G · S  
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. H · G · S  
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. H · G · S  
7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him. H · G · S  
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. H · G · S  
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. H · G · S  
10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.

H · G · S  Samuel, Samuel
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. H · G · S  
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. H · G · S  concerning his house
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. H · G · S  restrained them not
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.

H · G · S  
15 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision. H · G · S  
16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he answered, Here am I. H · G · S  
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. H · G · S  
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.

H · G · S  
19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground. H · G · S  
20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD. H · G · S  
21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.

H · G · S
