    4The LORD called to Samuel, and he replied,“Here I am!”

    5Then he ran to Eli and said,“Here I am, for you called me.” But Eli said,“I didn’t call you. Go back and lie down.” So he went back and lay down.

    11The LORD said to Samuel,“Look! I am about to do something in Israel; when anyone hears about it, both of his ears will tingle.
