1 Samuel 2:18-26
18And SamuelH8050 ministered before Jehovah, a boy girdedH2296 with a linenH906 ephodH646.
19And his motherH517 madeH6213 him a littleH6996 coat, and broughtH5927 it to him from year to year, when she cameH5927 up with her husbandH376 to sacrificeH2077 the yearly sacrificeH2077.
20And EliH5941 blessedH1288 ElkanahH511 and his wifeH802, and saidH559, Jehovah give thee seedH2233 of this womanH802 for the loan which is lent to Jehovah. And they wentH1980 to their own home.
21So Jehovah visitedH6485 HannahH2584, and she conceivedH2029, and boreH3205 threeH7969 sonsH1121 and twoH8147 daughtersH1323. And the boy SamuelH8050 grewH1431 before Jehovah.
22And EliH5941 was veryH3966 old, and heardH8085 all that his sonsH1121 were doing to all IsraelH3478, and that they layH7901 with the womenH802 that servedH6633 at the entranceH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150.
23And he saidH559 to them, WhyH4100 do ye such thingsH1697? for I hearH8085 of your evilH7451 deeds from all this peopleH5971.
24No, my sonsH1121, for it is no goodH2896 reportH8052 that I hearH8085: ye makeH8085 Jehovah's peopleH5971 transgressH5674.
25If oneH376 manH376 sinH2398 against another, 1GodH430 will judge him; but if a manH376 sinH2398 against Jehovah, who shall intreat for him? But they hearkened not to the voiceH6963 of their fatherH1, for Jehovah was minded to slay them.
26And the boy SamuelH8050 grew on, and was in favour both with Jehovah and alsoH1571 with menH376.
