\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-1|1]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-2|2]] 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;
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-3|3]] 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;
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-4|4]] That the LORD called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-5|5]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-6|6]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-7|7]] Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-8|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. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-9|9]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-10|10]] And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-11|11]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-12|12]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-13|13]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-14|14]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-15|15]] And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-16|16]] Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he answered, Here am I.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-17|17]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-18|18]] 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.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-19|19]] And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-20|20]] And all Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.
\\ [[commentaar:1samuel3-21|21]] And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
