That we also H1571 may be like all H3605 the nations; H1471 and that our king H4428 may judge H8199 us, and go H3318 out before H6440 us, and fight H3898 our battles. H4421

Which H834 may go H3318 out before H6440 them, and which H834 may go H935 in before H6440 them, and which H834 may lead H3318 them out, and which H834 may bring H935 them in; that the congregation H5712 of the LORD H3068 be not as sheep H6629 which H834 have no H369 shepherd. H7462

And it came H1961 to pass, when H834 Samuel H8050 was old, H2204 that he made H7760 his sons H1121 judges H8199 over Israel. H3478

And said H559 to him, Behold, H2009 you are old, H2204 and your sons H1121 walk H1980 not in your ways: H1870 now H6258 make H7760 us a king H4428 to judge H8199 us like all H3605 the nations. H1471

Now also H1571 when H5704 I am old H2209 and gray headed, H7872 O God, H430 forsake H5800 me not; until H5704 I have showed H5046 your strength H2220 to this generation, H1755 and your power H1369 to every H3605 one that is to come. H935

Listen H8085 to me, O house H1004 of Jacob, H3290 and all H3605 the remnant H7611 of the house H1004 of Israel, H3478 which are borne H6006 by me from the belly, H990 which are carried H5375 from the womb: H7356

And even to your old H2209 age H2209 I am he; and even to hoar H7872 hairs will I carry H5445 you: I have made, H6213 and I will bear; H5375 even I will carry, H5445 and will deliver H4422 you.

For I am now G2236 ready G4689 to be offered, G4689 and the time G2540 of my departure G359 is at G2186 hand. G2186

Knowing G1492 that shortly G5031 I must put G595 off G595 this G3588 my tabernacle, G4638 even G2532 as our Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 has showed G1213 me.

Now Eli H5941 was very H3966 old, H2204 and heard H8085 all H3605 that his sons H1121 did H6213 to all H3605 Israel; H3478 and how H854 H834 they lay H7901 with the women H802 that assembled H6633 at the door H6607 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation. H4150

Why H4100 kick H1163 you at my sacrifice H2077 and at my offering, H4503 which H834 I have commanded H6680 in my habitation; H4583 and honor H3513 your sons H1121 above me, to make yourselves fat H1254 with the most chief H7225 of all H3605 the offerings H4503 of Israel H3478 my people? H5971

For I have told H5046 him that I will judge H8199 his house H1004 for ever H5769 for the iniquity H5771 which H834 he knows; H3045 because H3588 his sons H1121 made themselves H1992 vile, H7043 and he restrained H3543 them not.

Then Eli H5941 called H7121 Samuel, H8050 and said, H559 Samuel, H8050 my son. H1121 And he answered, H559 Here H2009 am I.

And his sons H1121 walked H1980 not in his ways, H1870 but turned H5186 aside H5186 after H310 lucre, H1215 and took H3947 bribes, H7810 and perverted H5186 judgment. H4941

And Samuel H8050 grew, H1431 and the LORD H3068 was with him, and did let none H3808 of his words H1697 fall H5307 to the ground. H776

And all H3605 Israel H3478 from Dan H1835 even to Beersheba H884 knew H3045 that Samuel H8050 was established H539 to be a prophet H5030 of the LORD. H3068
