1 Samuel Chapter 3 שְׁמוּאֵל א

א  וְהַנַּעַר שְׁמוּאֵל מְשָׁרֵת אֶת-יְהוָה, לִפְנֵי עֵלִי; וּדְבַר-יְהוָה, הָיָה יָקָר בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם--אֵין חָזוֹן, נִפְרָץ.  {ס} 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 frequent vision. {S}
ב  וַיְהִי בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא, וְעֵלִי שֹׁכֵב בִּמְקוֹמוֹ; וְעֵינָו הֵחֵלּוּ כֵהוֹת, לֹא יוּכַל לִרְאוֹת. 2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place--now his eyes had begun to wax dim, that he could not see--
ג  וְנֵר אֱלֹהִים טֶרֶם יִכְבֶּה, וּשְׁמוּאֵל שֹׁכֵב, בְּהֵיכַל יְהוָה, אֲשֶׁר-שָׁם אֲרוֹן אֱלֹהִים.  {פ} 3 and the lamp of God was not yet gone out, and Samuel was laid down to sleep in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was, {P}
ד  וַיִּקְרָא יְהוָה אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל, וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּנִי. 4 that the LORD called Samuel; and he said: 'Here am I.'
ה  וַיָּרָץ אֶל-עֵלִי, וַיֹּאמֶר הִנְנִי כִּי-קָרָאתָ לִּי, וַיֹּאמֶר לֹא-קָרָאתִי, שׁוּב שְׁכָב; וַיֵּלֶךְ, וַיִּשְׁכָּב.  {ס} 5 And he ran unto Eli, and said: 'Here am I; for thou didst call me.' And he said: 'I called not; lie down again.' And he went and lay down. {S}
ו  וַיֹּסֶף יְהוָה, קְרֹא עוֹד שְׁמוּאֵל, וַיָּקָם שְׁמוּאֵל וַיֵּלֶךְ אֶל-עֵלִי, וַיֹּאמֶר הִנְנִי כִּי קָרָאתָ לִי; וַיֹּאמֶר לֹא-קָרָאתִי בְנִי, שׁוּב שְׁכָב. 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.'
ז  וּשְׁמוּאֵל, טֶרֶם יָדַע אֶת-יְהוָה; וְטֶרֶם יִגָּלֶה אֵלָיו, דְּבַר-יְהוָה. 7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him.
ח  וַיֹּסֶף יְהוָה קְרֹא-שְׁמוּאֵל, בַּשְּׁלִישִׁת, וַיָּקָם וַיֵּלֶךְ אֶל-עֵלִי, וַיֹּאמֶר הִנְנִי כִּי קָרָאתָ לִי; וַיָּבֶן עֵלִי, כִּי יְהוָה קֹרֵא לַנָּעַר. 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 was calling the child.
ט  וַיֹּאמֶר עֵלִי לִשְׁמוּאֵל, לֵךְ שְׁכָב, וְהָיָה אִם-יִקְרָא אֵלֶיךָ, וְאָמַרְתָּ דַּבֵּר יְהוָה כִּי שֹׁמֵעַ עַבְדֶּךָ; וַיֵּלֶךְ שְׁמוּאֵל, וַיִּשְׁכַּב בִּמְקוֹמוֹ. 9 Therefore Eli said unto Samuel: 'Go, lie down; and it shall be, if thou be called, that thou shalt say: Speak, LORD; for Thy servant heareth.' So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
י  וַיָּבֹא יְהוָה וַיִּתְיַצַּב, וַיִּקְרָא כְפַעַם-בְּפַעַם שְׁמוּאֵל שְׁמוּאֵל; וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל דַּבֵּר, כִּי שֹׁמֵעַ עַבְדֶּךָ.  {פ} 10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times: 'Samuel, Samuel.' Then Samuel said: 'Speak; for Thy servant heareth.' {P}
יא  וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל, הִנֵּה אָנֹכִי עֹשֶׂה דָבָר בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל:  אֲשֶׁר, כָּל-שֹׁמְעוֹ--תְּצִלֶּינָה, שְׁתֵּי אָזְנָיו. 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.
יב  בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אָקִים אֶל-עֵלִי, אֵת כָּל-אֲשֶׁר דִּבַּרְתִּי אֶל-בֵּיתוֹ--הָחֵל, וְכַלֵּה. 12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even unto the end.
יג  וְהִגַּדְתִּי לוֹ, כִּי-שֹׁפֵט אֲנִי אֶת-בֵּיתוֹ עַד-עוֹלָם--בַּעֲוֺן אֲשֶׁר-יָדַע, כִּי-מְקַלְלִים לָהֶם בָּנָיו, וְלֹא כִהָה, בָּם. 13 For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever, for the iniquity, in that he knew that his sons did bring a curse upon themselves, and he rebuked them not.
יד  וְלָכֵן נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי, לְבֵית עֵלִי:  אִם-יִתְכַּפֵּר עֲוֺן בֵּית-עֵלִי, בְּזֶבַח וּבְמִנְחָה--עַד-עוֹלָם. 14 And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be expiated with sacrifice nor offering for ever.'
טו  וַיִּשְׁכַּב שְׁמוּאֵל עַד-הַבֹּקֶר, וַיִּפְתַּח אֶת-דַּלְתוֹת בֵּית-יְהוָה; וּשְׁמוּאֵל יָרֵא, מֵהַגִּיד אֶת-הַמַּרְאָה אֶל-עֵלִי. 15 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to tell Eli the vision.
טז  וַיִּקְרָא עֵלִי אֶת-שְׁמוּאֵל, וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל בְּנִי; וַיֹּאמֶר, הִנֵּנִי. 16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said: 'Samuel, my son.' And he said: 'Here am I.'
יז  וַיֹּאמֶר, מָה הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר אֵלֶיךָ--אַל-נָא תְכַחֵד, מִמֶּנִּי:  כֹּה יַעֲשֶׂה-לְּךָ אֱלֹהִים, וְכֹה יוֹסִיף, אִם-תְּכַחֵד מִמֶּנִּי דָּבָר, מִכָּל-הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר-דִּבֶּר אֵלֶיךָ. 17 And he said: 'What is the thing that He hath spoken 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 spoke unto thee.'
יח  וַיַּגֶּד-לוֹ שְׁמוּאֵל אֶת-כָּל-הַדְּבָרִים, וְלֹא כִחֵד מִמֶּנּוּ; וַיֹּאמַר--יְהוָה הוּא, הַטּוֹב בְּעֵינָו יַעֲשֶׂה.  {פ} 18 And Samuel told him all the words, and hid nothing from him. And he said: 'It is the LORD; let Him do what seemeth Him good.' {P}
יט  וַיִּגְדַּל, שְׁמוּאֵל; וַיהוָה הָיָה עִמּוֹ, וְלֹא-הִפִּיל מִכָּל-דְּבָרָיו אָרְצָה. 19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.
כ  וַיֵּדַע, כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל, מִדָּן, וְעַד-בְּאֵר שָׁבַע:  כִּי נֶאֱמָן שְׁמוּאֵל, לְנָבִיא לַיהוָה.  {ס} 20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD. {S}
כא  וַיֹּסֶף יְהוָה, לְהֵרָאֹה בְשִׁלֹה:  כִּי-נִגְלָה יְהוָה אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל בְּשִׁלוֹ, בִּדְבַר יְהוָה.  {פ} 21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh; for the LORD revealed Himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD. {P}
