09:003:003 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;

09:003:004 That the lord called Samuel:  and he answered, Here am I.

09:003:005 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.

09:003:006 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.

09:003:007 Now Samuel did not yet know the lord, neither was the word of
           the lord yet revealed unto him.

09:003:008 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.

09:003:009 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.

09:003:010 And the lord came, and stood, and called as at other times,
           Samuel, Samuel.  Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant
           heareth.

09:003:011 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.

09:003:012 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.

09:003:013 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.

09:003:014 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.

09:003:015 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the
           house of the lord.  And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision.

09:003:016 Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son.  And he
           answered, Here am I.

09:003:017 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.

09:003:018 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.
