4. Then the Lord called Samuel.Samuel answered, ‘Here I am.’
5. And he ran to Eli and said, ‘Here I am; you called me.’But Eli said, ‘I did not call; go back and lie down.’ So he went and lay down.
6. Again the Lord called, ‘Samuel!’ And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, ‘Here I am; you called me.’‘My son,’ Eli said, ‘I did not call; go back and lie down.’
7. Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord: the word of the Lord had not yet been revealed to him.
