1 Samuel 3:7-9

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁷ Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither had the word of the LORD yet been revealed unto him.

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. Then Eli perceived that the LORD was calling the child.

⁹ Therefore, Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down, and it shall be if he calls thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD, for thy slave hears. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
