H511And ElkanahH3212went[H8799] H7414to RamahH1004to his houseH5288. And the childH1961did[H8804] H8334minister[H8764] H3068unto the LORDH6440beforeH5941EliH3548the priest.
H5288And the childH8050SamuelH8334ministered[H8764] H3068unto the LORDH6440beforeH5941EliH1697. And the wordH3068of the LORDH3368was preciousH3117in those daysH6555; there was no open[H8737] H2377vision.
H8050But SamuelH8334ministered[H8764] H6440beforeH3068the LORDH5288, being a childH2296, girded[H8803] H906with a linenH646ephod.
H7592Therefore also I have lent[H8689] H3068him to the LORDH3117; as long as he livethH7592he shall be lent[H8803] H3068to the LORDH7812. And he worshipped[H8691] H3068the LORD there.
H8050And SamuelH7901lay[H8799] H1242until the morningH6605, and opened[H8799] H1817the doorsH1004of the houseH3068of the LORDH8050. And SamuelH3372feared[H8804] H5046to shew[H8687] H5941EliH4759the vision.
H7925And they rose upH1242in the morningH7925early[H8686] H7812, and worshipped[H8691] H6440beforeH3068the LORDH7725, and returned[H8799] H935, and came[H8799] H1004to their houseH7414to RamahH511: and ElkanahH3045knew[H8799] H2584HannahH802his wifeH3068; and the LORDH2142remembered[H8799] her.
H259Now there was a certainH376manH7436of RamathaimzophimH2022, of mountH669EphraimH8034, and his nameH511was ElkanahH1121, the sonH3395of JerohamH1121, the sonH453of ElihuH1121, the sonH8459of TohuH1121, the sonH6689of ZuphH673, an Ephrathite:
H8666And his returnH7414was to RamahH1004; for there was his houseH8199; and there he judged[H8804] H3478IsraelH1129; and there he built[H8799] H4196an altarH3068unto the LORD.
