And the childH5288 SamuelH8050 ministeredH8334 unto the LORDH3068 beforeH6440 EliH5941. And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 was preciousH3368 in those daysH3117; there was no openH6555 visionH2377.
And it came to pass at that timeH3117, when EliH5941 was laid downH7901 in his placeH4725, and his eyesH5869 beganH2490 to wax dimH3544, that he couldH3201 not seeH7200;
And ere the lampH5216 of GodH430 went outH3518 in the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, where the arkH727 of GodH430 was, and SamuelH8050 was laid downH7901 to sleep;
That the LORDH3068 calledH7121 SamuelH8050: and he answeredH559, Here am I.
And he ranH7323 unto EliH5941, and saidH559, Here am IH2009; for thou calledstH7121 me. And he saidH559, I calledH7121 not; lie downH7901 againH7725. And he wentH3212 and lay downH7901.
And the LORDH3068 calledH7121 yet againH3254, SamuelH8050. And SamuelH8050 aroseH6965 and wentH3212 to EliH5941, and saidH559, Here am I; for thou didst callH7121 me. And he answeredH559, I calledH7121 not, my sonH1121; lie downH7901 againH7725.
Now SamuelH8050 did not yetH2962 knowH3045 the LORDH3068, neither was the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 yet revealedH1540 unto him. {Now…: or, Thus did Samuel before he knew the LORD, and before the word of the LORD was revealed unto him}
And the LORDH3068 calledH7121 SamuelH8050 againH3254 the third timeH7992. And he aroseH6965 and wentH3212 to EliH5941, and saidH559, Here am I; for thou didst callH7121 me. And EliH5941 perceivedH995 that the LORDH3068 had calledH7121 the childH5288.
Therefore EliH5941 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, GoH3212, lie downH7901: and it shall be, if he callH7121 thee, that thou shalt sayH559, SpeakH1696, LORDH3068; for thy servantH5650 hearethH8085. So SamuelH8050 wentH3212 and lay downH7901 in his placeH4725.
And the LORDH3068 cameH935, and stoodH3320, and calledH7121 as at other timesH6471, SamuelH8050, SamuelH8050. Then SamuelH8050 answeredH559, SpeakH1696; for thy servantH5650 hearethH8085.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to SamuelH8050, Behold, I will doH6213 a thingH1697 in IsraelH3478, at which bothH8147 the earsH241 of every one that hearethH8085 it shall tingleH6750.
In that dayH3117 I will performH6965 against EliH5941 all things which I have spokenH1696 concerningH413 his houseH1004: when I beginH2490, I will also make an endH3615. {when…: Heb. beginning and ending}
For I have toldH5046 him that I will judgeH8199 his houseH1004 forH5704 everH5769 for the iniquityH5771 which he knowethH3045; because his sonsH1121 made themselves vileH7043, and he restrainedH3543 them not. {For I…: or, And I will tell him} {vile: or, accursed} {restrained…: Heb. frowned not upon them}
And therefore I have swornH7650 unto the houseH1004 of EliH5941, that the iniquityH5771 of Eli'sH5941 houseH1004 shall not be purgedH3722 with sacrificeH2077 nor offeringH4503 forH5704 everH5769.
And SamuelH8050 layH7901 until the morningH1242, and openedH6605 the doorsH1817 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. And SamuelH8050 fearedH3372 to shewH5046 EliH5941 the visionH4759.
Then EliH5941 calledH7121 SamuelH8050, and saidH559, SamuelH8050, my sonH1121. And he answeredH559, Here am I.
And he saidH559, What is the thingH1697 that the LORD hath saidH1696 unto thee? I pray thee hideH3582 it not from me: GodH430 do soH6213 to thee, and more alsoH3254, if thou hideH3582 any thingH1697 from me of all the thingsH1697 that he saidH1696 unto thee. {more also: Hebr. so add} {any thing: or, word}
And SamuelH8050 toldH5046 him every whitH1697, and hidH3582 nothing from him. And he saidH559, It is the LORDH3068: let him doH6213 what seemethH5869 him goodH2896. {every…: Heb. all the things, or, words}
And SamuelH8050 grewH1431, and the LORDH3068 was with him, and did let none of his wordsH1697 fallH5307 to the groundH776.
And all IsraelH3478 from DanH1835 even to BeershebaH884 knewH3045 that SamuelH8050 was establishedH539 to be a prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068. {established: or, faithful}
And the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 againH3254 in ShilohH7887: for the LORDH3068 revealedH1540 himself to SamuelH8050 in ShilohH7887 by the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.

And there cameH935 a manH376 of GodH430 unto EliH5941, and saidH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Did I plainlyH1540 appearH1540 unto the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1, when they were in EgyptH4714 in Pharaoh'sH6547 houseH1004?
And did I chooseH977 him out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to be my priestH3548, to offerH5927 upon mine altarH4196, to burnH6999 incenseH7004, to wearH5375 an ephodH646 beforeH6440 me? and did I giveH5414 unto the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1 all the offerings made by fireH801 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478?
Wherefore kickH1163 ye at my sacrificeH2077 and at mine offeringH4503, which I have commandedH6680 in my habitationH4583; and honourestH3513 thy sonsH1121 above me, to make yourselves fatH1254 with the chiefestH7225 of all the offeringsH4503 of IsraelH3478 my peopleH5971?
Wherefore the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saithH5002, I saidH559 indeedH559 that thy houseH1004, and the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1, should walkH1980 beforeH6440 me forH5704 everH5769: but now the LORDH3068 saithH5002, Be it far from meH2486; for them that honourH3513 me I will honourH3513, and they that despiseH959 me shall be lightly esteemedH7043.
O our GodH430, wilt thou not judgeH8199 them? for we have no mightH3581 againstH6440 this greatH7227 companyH1995 that comethH935 against us; neither knowH3045 weH587 what to doH6213: but our eyesH5869 are upon thee.
The kingH4428 saidH559 moreover to ShimeiH8096, Thou knowestH3045 all the wickednessH7451 which thine heartH3824 is privy toH3045, that thou didstH6213 to DavidH1732 my fatherH1: therefore the LORDH3068 shall returnH7725 thy wickednessH7451 upon thine own headH7218;
And he saidH559 unto them, Why doH6213 ye such thingsH1697? for I hearH8085 of your evilH7451 dealingsH1697 by all this peopleH5971. {of your…: or, evil words of you}
Nay, my sonsH1121; for it is no goodH2896 reportH8052 that I hearH8085: ye make the LORD'SH3068 peopleH5971 to transgressH5674. {transgress: or, cry out}
If one manH376 sinH2398 against anotherH376, the judgeH430 shall judgeH6419 him: but if a manH376 sinH2398 against the LORDH3068, who shall intreatH6419 for him? Notwithstanding they hearkenedH8085 not unto the voiceH6963 of their fatherH1, because the LORDH3068 wouldH2654 slayH4191 them.
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, that I will cut offH1438 thine armH2220, and the armH2220 of thy father'sH1 houseH1004, that there shall not be an old manH2205 in thine houseH1004.
And thou shalt seeH5027 an enemyH6862 in my habitationH4583, in all the wealth which God shall giveH3190 IsraelH3478: and there shall not be an old manH2205 in thine houseH1004 for everH3117. {an enemy…: or, the affliction of the tabernacle, for all the wealth which God would have given Israel}
And the manH376 of thine, whom I shall not cut offH3772 from mine altarH4196, shall be to consumeH3615 thine eyesH5869, and to grieveH109 thine heartH5315: and all the increaseH4768 of thine houseH1004 shall dieH4191 in the flower of their ageH582. {in the flower…: Heb. men}
And this shall be a signH226 unto thee, that shall comeH935 upon thy twoH8147 sonsH1121, on HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372; in oneH259 dayH3117 they shall dieH4191 bothH8147 of them.
And I will raise me upH6965 a faithfulH539 priestH3548, that shall doH6213 according to that which is in mine heartH3824 and in my mindH5315: and I will buildH1129 him a sureH539 houseH1004; and he shall walkH1980 beforeH6440 mine anointedH4899 for everH3117.
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is leftH3498 in thine houseH1004 shall comeH935 and crouchH7812 to him for a pieceH95 of silverH3701 and a morselH3603 of breadH3899, and shall sayH559, PutH5596 me, I pray thee, into oneH259 of the priests' officesH3550, that I may eatH398 a pieceH6595 of breadH3899. {Put: Heb. Join} {one of…: or, somewhat about the priesthood}
Now is the endH7093 come upon thee, and I will sendH7971 mine angerH639 upon thee, and will judgeH8199 thee according to thy waysH1870, and will recompenseH5414 upon thee all thine abominationsH8441. {recompense: Heb. give}
For oftentimesH6471+H7227 also thine own heartH3820 knowethH3045 that thou thyself likewise hast cursedH7043 othersH312.
Wherefore the sinH2403 of the young menH5288 was veryH3966 greatH1419 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: for menH582 abhorredH5006 the offeringH4503 of the LORDH3068.
And his fatherH1 had not displeasedH6087 him at any timeH3117 in sayingH559, Why hast thou done soH6213? and he also was a veryH3966 goodlyH2896+H8389 man; and his mother bareH3205 him afterH310 AbsalomH53. {at any…: Heb. from his days}
Therefore I will judgeH8199 you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, every oneH376 according to his waysH1870, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. RepentH7725, and turnH7725 yourselves from all your transgressionsH6588; so iniquityH5771 shall not be your ruinH4383. {yourselves: or, others}
ForG3754 ifG1437 ourG2257 heartG2588 condemn usG2607+G3754, GodG2316 isG2076 greaterG3187 than ourG2257 heartG2588, andG2532 knowethG1097 all thingsG3956.
Now EliH5941 was veryH3966 oldH2204, and heardH8085 all that his sonsH1121 didH6213 unto all IsraelH3478; and how they layH7901 with the womenH802 that assembledH6633 at the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150. {assembled: Heb. assembled by troops}
ChastenH3256 thy sonH1121 while there isH3426 hopeH8615, and let not thy soulH5315 spareH5375 for his cryingH4191. {for…: or, to his destruction: or, to cause him to die}
Let the heathenH1471 be wakenedH5782, and come upH5927 to the valleyH6010 of JehoshaphatH3092: for there will I sitH3427 to judgeH8199 all the heathenH1471 round aboutH5439.
And he saidH559 unto them, Why doH6213 ye such thingsH1697? for I hearH8085 of your evilH7451 dealingsH1697 by all this peopleH5971. {of your…: or, evil words of you}
Nay, my sonsH1121; for it is no goodH2896 reportH8052 that I hearH8085: ye make the LORD'SH3068 peopleH5971 to transgressH5674. {transgress: or, cry out}
If one manH376 sinH2398 against anotherH376, the judgeH430 shall judgeH6419 him: but if a manH376 sinH2398 against the LORDH3068, who shall intreatH6419 for him? Notwithstanding they hearkenedH8085 not unto the voiceH6963 of their fatherH1, because the LORDH3068 wouldH2654 slayH4191 them.
And the childH5288 SamuelH8050 grewH1432 onH1980, and was in favourH2896 both with the LORDH3068, and also with menH582.
WithholdH4513 not correctionH4148 from the childH5288: for if thou beatestH5221 him with the rodH7626, he shall not dieH4191.
