Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
And the youth
Samuel is
serving
Jehovah
before Eli ,
and the word of Jehovah
hath
been
precious in those days --
there is
no vision broken
forth
.
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.
And it cometh
to pass ,
at that time, that
Eli is
lying
down in his place, and his eyes have
begun
to be
dim --
he is
not able
to
see .
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 ;
And the lamp of God is
not
yet
extinguished,
and
Samuel
is
lying
down
in the temple of Jehovah
, where the ark of God `is'
,
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;
and
Jehovah
calleth
unto
Samuel ,
and he saith
, `
Here `
am '
I. '
That
the
LORD
called
Samuel :
and he answered
, Here am I.
And he runneth
unto Eli, and saith
, `
Here `
am '
I ,
for thou hast
called
for
me ;'
and he saith
, `
I called not; turn
back,
lie down ;'
and he goeth
and lieth
down.
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.
And Jehovah
addeth
to
call
again Samuel
, and Samuel riseth
and goeth
unto
Eli, and saith
, `
Here `
am '
I ,
for thou hast
called
for
me ;'
and he saith
, `
I have
not
called, my son ,
turn
back,
lie down. '
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
.
And
Samuel hath
not yet known
Jehovah
, and
the word of Jehovah
is
not
yet revealed unto him.
Now
Samuel did
not yet know
the
LORD
, neither
was
the word of the
LORD
yet revealed unto him.
And Jehovah
addeth
to
call
Samuel the third time ,
and he riseth
and goeth
unto
Eli, and saith
, `
Here `
am '
I ,
for thou hast
called
for
me ;'
and Eli understandeth
that Jehovah
is
calling
to
the youth
.
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
.
And
Eli saith
to
Samuel, `
Go, lie down ,
and it hath
been
, if He doth
call unto
thee, that thou hast
said
, Speak, Jehovah,
for Thy servant is
hearing;'
and
Samuel goeth
and lieth
down in his place.
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.
And Jehovah
cometh
, and stationeth
Himself
, and calleth
as time
by
time
, `
Samuel, Samuel ;'
and
Samuel saith
, `
Speak ,
for Thy servant if
hearing
. '
And the
LORD
came
, and stood
, and called
as at
other
times
, Samuel, Samuel .
Then
Samuel answered
, Speak ;
for thy servant heareth
.
And Jehovah
saith
unto
Samuel, `Lo
, I am
doing
a thing in Israel, at which the two
ears of every one hearing
it do
tingle.
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.
In that day I establish
unto
Eli all that
I have spoken unto
his house, beginning
and
completing;
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.
and
I have declared
to
him that I am
judging
his house --
to
the
age,
for the iniquity which he hath
known,
for
his sons are
making
themselves vile, and he hath
not
restrained them ,
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.
and therefore I have sworn to
the house of Eli :
the iniquity of the
house of
Eli
is
not atoned
for,
by
sacrifice ,
and
by
offering --
unto
the
age
. '
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
.
And Samuel lieth
till
the morning, and openeth
the doors of the house of Jehovah,
and Samuel is
afraid
of
declaring
the vision unto
Eli
.
And Samuel lay
until
the morning, and opened
the doors of the house of the
LORD.
And Samuel feared
to
show
Eli
the vision.
And
Eli calleth
Samuel, and saith
, `
Samuel, my son ;'
and he saith
, `
Here `
am '
I. '
Then
Eli called
Samuel, and said
, Samuel, my son .
And he answered
, Here am I.
And he saith
, `
What `
is '
the word
which
He
hath spoken
unto thee? I pray thee ,
hide it not from me ;
so
doth
God do to thee, and so
doth
He
add
, if thou hidest
from me a
word
of all the words
that He hath
spoken
unto thee. '
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.
And Samuel declareth
to
him the
whole
of
the
words
, and hath
not
hid from him ;
and he saith
, `
It `
is '
Jehovah;
that
which
is
good in
His
eyes
He
doth
. '
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.
And Samuel groweth
up
, and Jehovah
hath
been
with him, and hath
not
let fall
any
of his words to the earth;
And Samuel grew
, and the
LORD
was
with him, and did
let none
of his words fall
to the ground.
and all Israel know,
from Dan even unto
Beer-Sheba,
that Samuel is
established for
a prophet to
Jehovah
.
And all Israel from Dan even to
Beersheba
knew
that Samuel was
established to
be
a prophet of
the
LORD
.
And Jehovah
addeth
to
appear
in Shiloh ,
for Jehovah
hath
been
revealed unto
Samuel ,
in Shiloh ,
by the word of Jehovah
.
And the
LORD
appeared
again
in Shiloh :
for the
LORD
revealed himself
to
Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the
LORD
.
