And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the Lord blessed him.
And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel.
And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.
And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthah; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:
And the Lord visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the Lord.
And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favor both with the Lord, and also with men.
And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.
