Laye lilungile ilizwi likaYehova ngaloo mihla; kwakungekho mbono uvulekileyo. 2Ngelo xesha uEli wayelele endaweni yakhe; amehlo akhe ayeqale ukuba mnyama, engasaboni; 3Isibane sikaTHIXO oyinyaniso besingekacimi etempileni kaYehova, apho yayikhona ityeya yoTHIXO oyinyaniso, uSamuweli wayelele; 4uYehova wambiza uSamuweli, wathi, Ndikho. 5Wabalekela kuEli, wathi, Ndikho; ngokuba endibizile. Waphendula ke yena wathi, Andikubizanga; lala kwakhona. Wahamba wayolala. 6uYehova waphinda wambiza uSamuweli. Wesuka ke uSamuweli, waya kuEli, wathi, Ndim lo! ngokuba endibizile. Waphendula wathi, Andikubizanga, nyana wam; lala kwakhona. 7uSamuweli wayengekamazi uYehova, nelizwi likaYehova lalingekatyhilwa kuye. 8uYehova wambiza uSamuweli okwesithathu. Waphakama waya kuEli, wathi: &#8220;Ndim lo! ngokuba endibizile. Wabona uEli ukuba uYehova umbizile umntwana. 9Wathi uEli kuSamuweli, Lala, uthi, wakubiza, uthi, Thetha, Yehova; ngokuba uyeva umkhonzi wakho. uSamuweli waya kulala endaweni yakhe. 10Weza uYehova, wema, wabiza njengangaphambili, wathi, Samuweli, Samuweli! Waphendula uSamuweli, wathi, Thetha; ngokuba uyeva umkhonzi wakho. 11Wathi uYehova kuSamuweli, Uyabona, ndiya kwenza into kwaSirayeli, eya kuviwa ngabo bonke abayivayo. 12Ngaloo mini ndiya kuyenza kuEli yonke into endayithethayo ngendlu yakhe; xa ndiqala, ndiya kugqiba kwakhona. 13Ndathi kuye, Ndiya kuyigweba indlu yakhe kude kuse ephakadeni, ngenxa yobubi ababaziyo; ngokuba babedlala oonyana bakhe, akabanqanda. 14Ngoko ndabafungela abantu bendlu kaEli, ndathi, Abuyi kuhlanjululwa ububi bendlu kaEli, ngamadini, nangedini elinyukayo, kuphele. 15Walala uSamuweli kwada kwasa, wazivula ke iingcango zendlu kaYehova. uSamuweli woyika ukubonisa ubuso bakhe kuEli. 16uEli wambiza uSamuweli, wathi, Samuweli, nyana wam! Waphendula ke yena wathi, Ndilapha. 17Wathi, Utheni na kuwe uYehova? Ndiyakubongoza, sukundifihlela; uThixo uya kwenza oku kuwe, aqokele ukwenjenje, ukuba uthe wandifihlela nto kuyo yonke into ondixelele yona. 18uSamuweli wamxelela yonke into, akamfihlela nto. Wathi yena, NguYehova; Makenze into ayibona ifanelekile. 19Wakhula uSamuweli, uYehova waba naye, akwawa phantsi nalinye ilizwi emazwini akhe emhlabeni. 20Yaye onke amaSirayeli ukususela kwaDan kuse eBher-shebha azi ukuba uSamuweli umiselwe ukuba abe ngumprofeti kaYehova. 21Waphinda uYehova wabonakala eShilo, ngenxa yokuba uYehova wazityhila kuSamuweli eShilo ngelizwi likaYehova.</div>
