Ngalezonsuku ilizwi LIKATHIXO lalingandanga; kwakungelamibono eminengi. 2 Ngobunye ubusuku u-Eli, amehlo akhe ayesefiphala esebona kalufifi, wayelele endaweni yakhe yansuku zonke. 3 Isibane sikaNkulunkulu sasingakacitshi, njalo uSamuyeli wayelele phansi ethempelini LIKATHIXO, lapho okwakulebhokisi lesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu khona. 4 UTHIXO wasembiza uSamuyeli.USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.” 5 Wagijimela ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.”Kodwa u-Eli wathi, “Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.” Ngakho wabuyela wayalala. 6 UTHIXO wambiza futhi wathi, “Samuyeli!” USamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.”U-Eli wathi, “Ndodana yami, Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.” 7 Ngalesosikhathi uSamuyeli wayengakamazi UTHIXO: Ilizwi LIKATHIXO lalingakavezwa kuye. 8 UTHIXO wambiza uSamuyeli okwesithathu, njalo uSamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.”Lapho-ke u-Eli wabona ukuthi NGUTHIXO owayebiza umfana. 9 Ngakho u-Eli watshela uSamuyeli wathi, “Hamba uyelala, njalo nxa ekubiza wena uthi, ‘Khuluma THIXO, ngoba inceku yakho ilalele.’ ” Ngakho uSamuyeli wahamba wayalala endaweni yakhe. 10 UTHIXO weza wema khonapho, ebiza njengakuqala esithi, “Samuyeli! Samuyeli!”USamuyeli wathi, “Khuluma, ngoba inceku yakho ilalele.” 11 UTHIXO wasesithi kuSamuyeli, “Khangela, sekuseduze ukuba ko-Israyeli ngenze into ezakwenza indlebe zomuntu wonke okuzwayo lokho zincencethe. 12 Ngalesosikhathi ngizamelana lo-Eli, ngenze konke engakukhuluma mayelana lendlu yakhe kusukela ekuqaleni kusiya ekucineni. 13 Ngoba ngamtshela ukuthi ngizakwahlulela indlu yakhe okulaphakade ngenxa yesono ayesazi; amadodana akhe ayehlambaza uNkulunkulu, yena wehluleka ukuwakhuza. 14 Ngakho, ngayifungela indlu ka-Eli ngathi, ‘Icala lendlu ka-Eli kaliyikuhlawulwa ngomhlatshelo loba ngomnikelo.’ ” 15 USamuyeli walala phansi kwaze kwaba sekuseni wasevula iminyango yendlu KATHIXO. Wayesesaba ukutshela u-Eli umbono, 16 kodwa u-Eli wambiza wathi, “Samuyeli, ndodana yami.”USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.” 17 U-Eli wabuza wathi, “Kuyini akutshiloyo kuwe na? Ungangifihleli. Sengathi uNkulunkulu angakujezisa, kube buhlungu kakhulu, nxa uzangifihlela loba kuyini akutshele khona.” 18 Ngakho uSamuyeli wamtshela konke, engamfihlelanga lutho. U-Eli wasesithi, “UNGUTHIXO; kenze lokho akubona kukuhle emehlweni akhe.” 19 UTHIXO wayeloSamuyeli ekukhuleni kwakhe, njalo kayekelanga lalinye lamazwi akhe liwela phansi. 20 Njalo u-Israyeli wonke kusukela eDani kusiya eBherishebha wakwazi ukuthi uSamuyeli wayebekwe ukuba ngumphrofethi KATHIXO. 21 UTHIXO waqhubeka ebonakala eShilo, njalo khonapho waziveza kuSamuyeli ngelizwi lakhe.
