13 And I announced to him that I judge his house even forever, for the iniquity which he knew: for his sons cursing for themselves and he admonished them not.

14 And for this I sware to the house of Eli if the iniquity of the house of Eli shall be covered with sacrifice and with gifts even forever.

15 And Samuel will lie down till the morning, and he will open the doors of the house of Jehovah: and Samuel will be afraid of announcing the vision to Eli.

16 And Eli will call Samuel, and say, Samuel, my son. And he will say, Behold me.

17 And he will say, What the word he spake to thee? not now shalt thou hide from me: so will God do to thee, and so will he add, if thou shalt hide from me a word of all the word which he spake to thee.

18 And Samuel will announce to him all the words, and he hid not from him. And he will say, It is Jehovah: the good in his eyes he will do.

19 And Samuel will be magnified, and Jehovah was with him, and there fell not from all his words to the earth.

20 And all Israel knew from Dan to the Well of the Oath, that Samuel was faithful for a prophet to Jehovah.

21 And Jehovah will add to be seen in Shiloh: for Jehovah was revealed to Samuel by the word of Jehovah in Shiloh.
