nkjv@1Samuel:3:4 @ that the LORD called Samuel. And he answered, "Here I am!"
nkjv@1Samuel:3:5 @ So he ran to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." And he said, "I did not call; lie down again." And he went and lay down.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:6 @ Then the LORD called yet again, "Samuel!" So Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." He answered, "I did not call, my son; lie down again."
nkjv@1Samuel:3:7 @ (Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, nor was the word of the LORD yet revealed to him.)
nkjv@1Samuel:3:8 @ And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. So he arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you did call me." Then Eli perceived that the LORD had called the boy.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:9 @ Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down; and it shall be, if He calls you, that you must say, "Speak, LORD, for Your servant hears."' So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:10 @ Now the LORD came and stood and called as at other times, "Samuel! Samuel!" And Samuel answered, "Speak, for Your servant hears."
nkjv@1Samuel:3:11 @ Then the LORD said to Samuel: "Behold, I will do something in Israel at which both ears of everyone who hears it will tingle.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:12 @ In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:13 @ For I have told him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knows, because his sons made themselves vile, and he did not restrain them.
nkjv@1Samuel:3:14 @ And therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be atoned for by sacrifice or offering forever."
