1 Samuel 3:7-9

Darby Translation

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

⁸ And Jehovah called again the third time, Samuel! And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And Eli perceived that Jehovah was calling the boy.

⁹ And Eli said to Samuel, Go, lie down; and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Jehovah, for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
