3. and the lamp of God had not yet gone out, Samuel was lying in the temple of Yahweh where the ark of God was.

4. Then Yahweh called out to Samuel and he said, “Here I am!”

5. And he ran to Eli and said, “Here I am, because you called me.” But he said, “I did not call you. Go back and lie down.” So he went and lay down.

6. And Yahweh called Samuel again, so Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, “Here I am, because you called me.” And he said, “I did not call you, my son. Go back and lie down.”

7. Now Samuel did not yet know Yahweh, and the word of Yahweh had not yet been revealed to him.
