Old Testament
1 Now the boy Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was rare in those days; there was no widespread revelation.
1 ΚΑΙ τὸ παιδάριον Σαμουὴλ ἦν λειτουργῶν τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐνώπιον Ἡλὶ τοῦ ἱερέως· καὶ ρῆμα Κυρίου ἦν τίμιον ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις, οὐκ ἦν ὅρασις διαστέλλουσα.
2 And it came to pass at that time, while Eli was lying down in his place, and when his eyes had begun to grow so dim that he could not see,
2 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καὶ Ἡλὶ ἐκάθευδεν ἐν τῷ τόπῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ ἤρξαντο βαρύνεσθαι, καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο βλέπειν.
3 and before the lamp of God went out in the tabernacle of the LORD where the ark of God was, and while Samuel was lying down,
3 καὶ ὁ λύχνος τοῦ Θεοῦ πρὶν ἐπισκευασθῆναι, καὶ Σαμουὴλ ἐκάθευδεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ, οὗ ἡ κιβωτὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ.
4 that the LORD called Samuel. And he answered, “Here I am!”
4 καὶ ἐκάλεσε Κύριος· Σαμουὴλ Σαμουήλ· καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ.
5 So he ran to Eli and said, “Here I am, for you called me.” And he said, “I did not call; lie down again.” And he went and lay down.
5 καὶ ἔδραμε πρὸς Ἡλὶ καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ, ὅτι κέκληκάς με· καὶ εἶπεν· οὐ κέκληκά σε, ἀνάστρεφε, κάθευδε· καὶ ἀνέστρεψε καὶ ἐκάθευδε.
6 Then the LORD called yet again, “Samuel!” So Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you called me.” He answered, “I did not call, my son; lie down again.”
6 καὶ προσέθετο Κύριος καὶ ἐκάλεσε· Σαμουὴλ Σαμουήλ· καὶ ἐπορεύθη πρὸς Ἡλὶ τὸ δεύτερον καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ, ὅτι κέκληκάς με· καὶ εἶπεν· οὐ κέκληκά σε, ἀνάστρεφε, κάθευδε·
7 (Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, nor was the word of the LORD yet revealed to him.)
7 καὶ Σαμουὴλ πρὶν ἢ γνῶναι Θεὸν καὶ ἀποκαλυφθῆναι αὐτῷ ρῆμα Κυρίου.
8 And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. So he arose and went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you did call me.” Then Eli perceived that the LORD had called the boy.
8 καὶ προσέθετο Κύριος καλέσαι Σαμουὴλ ἐν τρίτῳ· καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη πρὸς Ἡλὶ καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ, ὅτι κέκληκάς με. καὶ ἐσοφίσατο Ἡλὶ ὅτι Κύριος κέκληκε τὸ παιδάριον,
9 Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “Go, lie down; and it shall be, if He calls you, that you must say, ‘Speak, LORD, for Your servant hears.’ ” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
9 καὶ εἶπεν· ἀνάστρεφε, κάθευδε, τέκνον, καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν καλέσῃ σε καὶ ἐρεῖς· λάλει, Κύριε, ὅτι ἀκούει ὁ δοῦλός σου. καὶ ἐπορεύθῃ Σαμουὴλ καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ἐν τῷ τόπῳ αὐτοῦ.
10 Now the LORD came and stood and called as at other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” And Samuel answered, “Speak, for Your servant hears.”
10 καὶ ἦλθε Κύριος καὶ κατέστη καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν ὡς ἅπαξ καὶ ἅπαξ, καὶ εἶπε Σαμουήλ· λάλει, ὅτι ἀκούει ὁ δοῦλός σου.
11 Then the LORD said to Samuel: “Behold, I will do something in Israel at which both ears of everyone who hears it will tingle.
11 καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Σαμουήλ· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ποιῶ τὰ ρήματά μου ἐν Ἰσραήλ, ὥστε παντὸς ἀκούοντος αὐτὰ ἠχήσει ἀμφότερα τὰ ὦτα αὐτοῦ.
12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end.
12 ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐπεγερῶ ἐπὶ Ἡλὶ πάντα, ὅσα ἐλάλησα εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, ἄρξομαι καὶ ἐπιτελέσω.
13 For I have told him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knows, because his sons made themselves vile, and he did not restrain them.
13 καὶ ἀνήγγελκα αὐτῷ ὅτι ἐκδικῶ ἐγὼ τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος ἐν ἀδικίαις υἱῶν αὐτοῦ, ὅτι κακολογοῦντες Θεὸν οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἐνουθέτει αὐτοὺς
14 And therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli’s house shall not be atoned for by sacrifice or offering forever.”
14 καὶ οὐδ᾿ οὕτως. ὤμοσα τῷ οἴκῳ Ἡλί· εἰ ἐξιλασθήσεται ἀδικία οἴκου Ἡλὶ ἐν θυμιάματι καὶ ἐν θυσίαις ἕως αἰῶνος.
15 So Samuel lay down until morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel was afraid to tell Eli the vision.
15 καὶ κοιμᾶται Σαμουὴλ ἕως πρωΐ καὶ ὤρθρισε τὸ πρωΐ καὶ ἤνοιξε τὰς θύρας οἴκου Κυρίου· καὶ Σαμουὴλ ἐφοβήθη ἀπαγγεῖλαι τὴν ὅρασιν τῷ Ἡλί.
16 Then Eli called Samuel and said, “Samuel, my son!” He answered, “Here I am.”
16 καὶ εἶπεν Ἡλὶ πρὸς Σαμουήλ· Σαμουὴλ τέκνον· καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ.
17 And he said, “What is the word that the LORD spoke to you? Please do not hide it from me. God do so to you, and more also, if you hide anything from me of all the things that He said to you.”
17 καὶ εἶπε· τί τὸ ρῆμα τὸ λαληθὲν πρός σε; μὴ δὴ κρύψῃς ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ· τάδε ποιήσαι σοι ὁ Θεὸς καὶ τάδε προσθείη, ἐὰν κρύψῃς ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ ρῆμα ἐκ πάντων τῶν λόγων τῶν λαληθέντων σοι ἐν τοῖς ὠσί σου.
18 Then Samuel told him everything, and hid nothing from him. And he said, “It is the LORD. Let Him do what seems good to Him.”
18 καὶ ἀπήγγειλε Σαμουὴλ πάντας τοὺς λόγους καὶ οὐκ ἔκρυψεν ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ. καὶ εἶπεν Ἡλί· Κύριος αὐτός, τὸ ἀγαθὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ποιήσει.
19 So Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground.
19 καὶ ἐμεγαλύνθη Σαμουήλ, καὶ ἦν Κύριος μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἔπεσεν ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν λόγων αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.
20 And all Israel from Dan to Beersheba knew that Samuel had been established as a prophet of the LORD.
20 καὶ ἔγνωσαν πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ Δὰν καὶ ἕως Βηρσαβεὲ ὅτι πιστὸς Σαμουὴλ εἰς προφήτην τῷ Κυρίῳ.
21 Then the LORD appeared again in Shiloh. For the LORD revealed Himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
21 καὶ προσέθετο Κύριος δηλωθῆναι ἐν Σηλώμ, ὅτι ἀπεκαλύφθη Κύριος πρὸς Σαμουήλ· καὶ ἐπιστεύθη Σαμουὴλ τοῦ προφήτης γενέσθαι τῷ Κυρίῳ εἰς πάντα Ἰσραὴλ ἀπ᾿ ἄκρων τῆς γῆς καὶ ἕως ἄκρων. καὶ Ἡλὶ πρεσβύτης σφόδρα, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ πορευόμενοι ἐπορεύοντο καὶ πονηρὰ ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτῶν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου.
