1 And the boy Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. Now in those days the word of the LORD was rare, and visions were scarce. 2 And at that time Eli, whose eyesight had grown so dim that he could not see, was lying in his room. 3 Before the lamp of God had gone out, Samuel was lying down in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was located. 4 Then the LORD called to Samuel, and he answered, “Here I am.” 5 He ran to Eli and said, “Here I am, for you have called me.” “I did not call,” Eli replied. “Go back and lie down.” So he went and lay down. 1 Samuel 3:1-5, Berean Standard Bible.
