1 Samuel 3:11-18

11And YhwhH3068 saidH559 to SamuelH8050, Behold, I will doH6213 a thingH1697 in IsraelH3478, at which bothH8147 the earsH241 of every one that hearethH8085 it shall tingleH6750. 12In that dayH3117 I will performH6965 against EliH5941 all things which I have spokenH1696 concerningH413 his houseH1004: when I beginH2490, I will also make an endH3615.1 13For I have toldH5046 him that I will judgeH8199 his houseH1004 forH5704 everH5769 for the iniquityH5771 which he knowethH3045; because his sonsH1121 made themselves vileH7043, and he restrainedH3543 them not.234 14And therefore I have swornH7650 unto the houseH1004 of EliH5941, that the iniquityH5771 of Eli’sH5941 houseH1004 shall not be purgedH3722 with sacrificeH2077 nor offeringH4503 forH5704 everH5769.

15And SamuelH8050 layH7901 until the morningH1242, and openedH6605 the doorsH1817 of the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068. And SamuelH8050 fearedH3372 to shewH5046 EliH5941 the visionH4759. 16Then EliH5941 calledH7121 SamuelH8050, and saidH559, SamuelH8050, my sonH1121. And he answeredH559, Here am I. 17And he saidH559, What is the thingH1697 that the Lord hath saidH1696 unto thee? I pray thee hideH3582 it not from me: GodH430 do soH6213 to thee, and more alsoH3254, if thou hideH3582 any thingH1697 from me of all the thingsH1697 that he saidH1696 unto thee.56 18And SamuelH8050 toldH5046 him every whitH1697, and hidH3582 nothing from him. And he saidH559, It is YhwhH3068: let him doH6213 what seemethH5869 him goodH2896.7
