3Before the lamp of God had gone out, Samuel was lying down in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was located.
“and before the lamp Of God went out in the tabernacle of the Lord where the ark of God was and while Samuel was lying down”
“And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was, and Samuel was laid down to sleep,”
“And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the Lord where the ark of God was and Samuel was laid down to sleep,”

4Then the LORD called to Samuel, and he answered, "Here I am."
“That the Lord called Samuel and he answered here. I am.”
“that the Lord called Samuel, and he answered, Here am I.”
“Then the Lord called Samuel and he said, here I am.”
“that the Lord called Samuel and he answered here am I.”
“that the Lord called Samuel. And he answered, Here am I.”

5He ran to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you have called me." "I did not call," Eli replied. "Go back and lie down." So he went and lay down.
“And he ran unto Eli and said, Here am I, for thou callest me. And he said, I called not. Lie down again. And he went and lay down.”

6Once again the LORD called, "Samuel!" So Samuel got up, went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you have called me." "My son, I did not call," Eli replied. "Go back and lie down."
“And the Lord called yet again Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, Here am I, for thou didst call me. And he answered, I called not my son. Lie down again.”

9"Go and lie down," he said to Samuel, "and if He calls you, say, 'Speak, LORD, for Your servant is listening.'" So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
