1 In those days, when the boy Samuelwas serving the Lordunder the direction of Eli, there were very few messages from the Lord, and visions from him were quite rare. 2 One night Eli, who was now almost blind, was sleeping in his own room; 3 Samuelwas sleeping in the sanctuary, where the sacred Covenant Box was. Before dawn, while the lamp was still burning, 4 the Lordcalled Samuel. He answered, "Yes, sir!" 5 and ran to Eliand said, "You called me, and here I am."
But Elianswered, "I didn’t call you; go back to bed." So Samuel went back to bed.
6,7 The Lordcalled Samuelagain. The boy did not know that it was the Lord, because the Lordhad never spoken to him before. So he got up, went to Eli, and said, "You called me, and here I am."
But Elianswered, "My son, I didn’t call you; go back to bed."
8 The Lordcalled Samuela third time; he got up, went to Eli, and said, "You called me, and here I am."
Then Elirealized that it was the Lordwho was calling the boy, 9 so he said to him, "Go back to bed; and if he calls you again, say, ‘Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.’" So Samuelwent back to bed.
10 The Lordcame and stood there, and called as he had before, "Samuel! Samuel!"
Samuelanswered, "Speak; your servant is listening."
11 The Lordsaid to him, "Some day I am going to do something to the people of Israel that is so terrible that everyone who hears about it will be stunned. 12 On that day I will carry out all my threats against Eli’s family, from beginning to end. 13 I have already told him3.13: One ancient translation I have already told him; Hebrew I will tell him.that I am going to punish his family forever because his sons have spoken evil things against me. Eli knew they were doing this, but he did not stop them. 14 So I solemnly declare to the family of Elithat no sacrifice or offering will ever be able to remove the consequences of this terrible sin."
15 Samuelstayed in bed until morning; then he got up and opened the doors of the house of the Lord. He was afraid to tell Eliabout the vision. 16 Elicalled him, "Samuel, my boy!"
"Yes, sir," answered Samuel.
17 "What did the Lordtell you?" Eli asked. "Don’t keep anything from me. God will punish you severely if you don’t tell me everything he said." 18 So Samueltold him everything; he did not keep anything back. Eli said, "He is the Lord; he will do whatever seems best to him."
19 As Samuelgrew up, the Lordwas with him and made come true everything that Samuelsaid. 20 So all the people of Israel, from one end of the country to the other, knew that Samuelwas indeed a prophet of the Lord. 21 The Lordcontinued to reveal himself at Shiloh, where he had appeared to Samueland had spoken to him. And when Samuelspoke, all Israel listened.
