15. Then Samuel slept until morning, and he opened the doors of the house of the Lord. And Samuel was afraid to tell the vision to Eli.
16. Then Eli called Samuel, and he said, "Samuel, my son?" And responding, he said, "I am here."
17. And he questioned him: "What is the word that the Lord has spoken to you? I beg you that you may not conceal it from me. May God do these things to you, and may he add these other things, if you hide from me one word out of all the things that were told to you."
18. And so, Samuel revealed to him all the words, and he did not hide them from him. And he responded: "He is the Lord. May he do what is good in his own eyes."
19. And Samuel grew up, and the Lord was with him, and not one of his words fell to the ground.
