So Hannah H2584 rose up H6965 (QalImpf) after H310 they had eaten H398 (QalInf) in Shiloh, H7887 and after H310 they had drunk. H8354 (QalInf) Now Eli H5941 the priest H3548 sat H3427 (QalActPtc) upon a seat H3678 by a post H4201 of the temple H1964 of the Lord. H3068

1 Samuel 1:12 Heb. multiplied to pray

και εγενηθη οτε επληθυνεν προσευχομενη ενωπιον κυριου και ηλι ο ιερευς εφυλαξεν το στομα αυτης

Now Hannah spoke in her heart. Only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she was drunk.

Now Hannah, H2584 she spake H1696 (PielPtc) in her heart; H3820 only her lips H8193 moved, H5128 (QalPtc) but her voice H6963 was not heard: H8085 (NiphImpf) therefore Eli H5941 thought H2803 (QalImpf) she had been drunken. H7910

και αυτη ελαλει εν τη καρδια αυτης και τα χειλη αυτης εκινειτο και φωνη αυτης ουκ ηκουετο και ελογισατο αυτην ηλι εις μεθυουσαν

Eli said to her, “How long will you be drunk? Get rid of your wine!”

And Eli H5941 said H559 (QalImpf) unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? H7937 (HithImpf) put away H5493 (HiphImpv) thy wine H3196 from thee.

και ειπεν αυτη το παιδαριον ηλι εως ποτε μεθυσθηση περιελου τον οινον σου και πορευου εκ προσωπου κυριου

Then Eli answered, “Go in peace; and may the God^§ of Israel grant your petition that you have asked of him.”

1 Samuel 1:17 The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “אֱלֹהִ֑ים” (Elohim).

Then Eli H5941 answered H6030 (QalImpf) and said, H559 (QalImpf) Go H3212 (QalImpv) in peace: H7965 and the God H430 of Israel H3478 grant H5414 (QalImpf) thee thy petition H7596 that thou hast asked H7592 (QalPerf) of him.

They killed the bull, and brought the child to Eli.

And they slew H7819 (QalImpf) a bullock, H6499 and brought H935 (HiphImpf) the child H5288 to Eli. H5941

και κατελιπον αυτον εκει ενωπιον κυριου και απηλθον εις αρμαθαιμ και το παιδαριον ην λειτουργων τω προσωπω κυριου ενωπιον ηλι του ιερεως

Now the sons of Eli were wicked men. They didn’t know Yahweh.

Now the sons H1121 of Eli H5941 were sons H1121 of Belial; H1100 they knew H3045 (QalPerf) not the Lord. H3068

και οι υιοι ηλι του ιερεως υιοι λοιμοι ουκ ειδοτες τον κυριον

Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, “May Yahweh give you offspring^§ from this woman for the petition which was asked of Yahweh.” Then they went to their own home.

1 Samuel 2:20 or, seed

And Eli H5941 blessed H1288 (PielPerf) Elkanah H511 and his wife, H802 and said, H559 (QalPerf) The Lord H3068 give H7760 (QalImpf) thee seed H2233 of this woman H802 for the loan H7596 which is lent^§ H7592 (QalPerf) to the Lord. H3068 And they went H1980 (QalPerf) unto their own home. H4725

Now Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons did to all Israel, and how that they slept with the women who served at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

Now Eli H5941 was very H3966 old, H2204 (QalPerf) and heard H8085 (QalPerf) all that his sons H1121 did H6213 (QalImpf) unto all Israel; H3478 and how they lay H7901 (QalImpf) with the women H802 that assembled^§ H6633 (QalActPtc) at the door H6607 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation. H4150

1 Samuel 2:22 Heb. assembled by troops

και ηλι πρεσβυτης σφοδρα και ηκουσεν α εποιουν οι υιοι αυτου τοις υιοις ισραηλ

And there came H935 (QalImpf) a man H376 of God H430 unto Eli, H5941 and said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, Thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord, H3068 Did I plainly H1540 (NiphInf) appear H1540 (NiphPerf) unto the house H1004 of thy father, H1 when they were in Egypt H4714 in Pharaoh’s H6547 house? H1004

The child Samuel ministered to Yahweh before Eli. Yahweh’s word was rare in those days. There were not many visions, then.

And the child H5288 Samuel H8050 ministered H8334 (PielPtc) unto the Lord H3068 before H6440 Eli. H5941 And the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 was precious H3368 in those days; H3117 there was no open H6555 (NiphPtc) vision. H2377

και το παιδαριον σαμουηλ ην λειτουργων τω κυριω ενωπιον ηλι του ιερεως και ρημα κυριου ην τιμιον εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις ουκ ην ορασις διαστελλουσα

At that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see),

And it came to pass at that time, H3117 when Eli H5941 was laid down H7901 (QalActPtc) in his place, H4725 and his eyes H5869 began H2490 (HiphPerf) to wax dim, H3544 that he could H3201 (QalImpf) not see; H7200 (QalInf)

και εγενετο εν τη ημερα εκεινη και ηλι εκαθευδεν εν τω τοπω αυτου και οι οφθαλμοι αυτου ηρξαντο βαρυνεσθαι και ουκ ηδυνατο βλεπειν

He ran to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He said, “I didn’t call. Lie down again.” He went and lay down.

And he ran H7323 (QalImpf) unto Eli, H5941 and said, H559 (QalImpf) Here am I; H2009 for thou calledst H7121 (QalPerf) me. And he said, H559 (QalImpf) I called H7121 (QalPerf) not; lie down H7901 (QalImpv) again. H7725 (QalImpv) And he went H3212 (QalImpf) and lay down. H7901 (QalImpf)

και εδραμεν προς ηλι και ειπεν ιδου εγω οτι κεκληκας με και ειπεν ου κεκληκα σε αναστρεφε καθευδε και ανεστρεψεν και εκαθευδεν

Yahweh called yet again, “Samuel!” Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He answered, “I didn’t call, my son. Lie down again.”

And the Lord H3068 called H7121 (QalInf) yet again, H3254 (HiphImpf) Samuel. H8050 And Samuel H8050 arose H6965 (QalImpf) and went H3212 (QalImpf) to Eli, H5941 and said, H559 (QalImpf) Here am I; for thou didst call H7121 (QalPerf) me. And he answered, H559 (QalImpf) I called H7121 (QalPerf) not, my son; H1121 lie down H7901 (QalImpv) again. H7725 (QalImpv)

και προσεθετο κυριος και εκαλεσεν σαμουηλ σαμουηλ και επορευθη προς ηλι το δευτερον και ειπεν ιδου εγω οτι κεκληκας με και ειπεν ου κεκληκα σε αναστρεφε καθευδε

Yahweh called Samuel again the third time. He arose and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” Eli perceived that Yahweh had called the child.

And the Lord H3068 called H7121 (QalInf) Samuel H8050 again H3254 (HiphImpf) the third time. H7992 And he arose H6965 (QalImpf) and went H3212 (QalImpf) to Eli, H5941 and said, H559 (QalImpf) Here am I; for thou didst call H7121 (QalPerf) me. And Eli H5941 perceived H995 (QalImpf) that the Lord H3068 had called H7121 (QalActPtc) the child. H5288

και προσεθετο κυριος καλεσαι σαμουηλ εν τριτω και ανεστη και επορευθη προς ηλι και ειπεν ιδου εγω οτι κεκληκας με και εσοφισατο ηλι οτι κυριος κεκληκεν το παιδαριον

Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “Go, lie down. It shall be, if he calls you, that you shall say, ‘Speak, Yahweh; for your servant hears.’ ” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

Therefore Eli H5941 said H559 (QalImpf) unto Samuel, H8050 Go, H3212 (QalImpv) lie down: H7901 (QalImpv) and it shall be, if he call H7121 (QalImpf) thee, that thou shalt say, H559 (QalPerf) Speak, H1696 (PielImpv) Lord; H3068 for thy servant H5650 heareth. H8085 (QalActPtc) So Samuel H8050 went H3212 (QalImpf) and lay down H7901 (QalImpf) in his place. H4725

και ειπεν αναστρεφε καθευδε τεκνον και εσται εαν καλεση σε και ερεις λαλει κυριε οτι ακουει ο δουλος σου και επορευθη σαμουηλ και εκοιμηθη εν τω τοπω αυτου

In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even to the end.

In that day H3117 I will perform H6965 (HiphImpf) against Eli H5941 all things which I have spoken H1696 (PielPerf) concerning H413 his house: H1004 when I begin, H2490 (HiphInf) I will also make an end.^§ H3615 (PielInf)

1 Samuel 3:12 Heb. beginning and ending

ωμοσα τω οικω ηλι ει εξιλασθησεται αδικια οικου ηλι εν θυμιαματι και εν θυσιαις εως αιωνος

Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of Yahweh’s house. Samuel was afraid to show Eli the vision.

And Samuel H8050 lay H7901 (QalImpf) until the morning, H1242 and opened H6605 (QalImpf) the doors H1817 of the house H1004 of the Lord. H3068 And Samuel H8050 feared H3372 (QalPerf) to shew H5046 (HiphInf) Eli H5941 the vision. H4759

και κοιμαται σαμουηλ εως πρωι και ωρθρισεν το πρωι και ηνοιξεν τας θυρας οικου κυριου και σαμουηλ εφοβηθη απαγγειλαι την ορασιν τω ηλι

Then Eli called Samuel and said, “Samuel, my son!” He said, “Here I am.”

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

και ειπεν ηλι προς σαμουηλ σαμουηλ τεκνον και ειπεν ιδου εγω

So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought from there the ark of the covenant of Yahweh of Armies, who sits above the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.

So the people H5971 sent H7971 (QalImpf) to Shiloh, H7887 that they might bring H5375 (QalImpf) from thence the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635 which dwelleth H3427 (QalActPtc) between the cherubims: H3742 and the two H8147 sons H1121 of Eli, H5941 Hophni H2652 and Phinehas, H6372 were there with the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of God.

1 Samuel 4:11 Heb. died

και κιβωτος θεου ελημφθη και αμφοτεροι υιοι ηλι απεθανον οφνι και φινεες

When he came, behold, Eli was sitting on his seat by the road watching, for his heart trembled for God’s ark. When the man came into the city and told about it, all the city cried out.

And when he came, H935 (QalImpf) lo, Eli H5941 sat H3427 (QalActPtc) upon a seat H3678 by the wayside H1870 H3027 (Qere) H3197 watching: H6822 (PielPtc) for his heart H3820 trembled H2730 for the ark H727 of God. H430 And when the man H376 came H935 (QalActPtc) into the city, H5892 and told H5046 (HiphInf) it, all the city H5892 cried out. H2199 (QalImpf)

και ηλθεν και ιδου ηλι εκαθητο επι του διφρου παρα την πυλην σκοπευων την οδον οτι ην η καρδια αυτου εξεστηκυια περι της κιβωτου του θεου και ο ανθρωπος εισηλθεν εις την πολιν απαγγειλαι και ανεβοησεν η πολις

When Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, “What does the noise of this tumult mean?” The man hurried, and came and told Eli.

And when Eli H5941 heard H8085 (QalImpf) the noise H6963 of the crying, H6818 he said, H559 (QalImpf) What meaneth the noise H6963 of this tumult? H1995 And the man H376 came H935 (QalImpf) in hastily, H4116 (PielPerf) and told H5046 (HiphImpf) Eli. H5941

και ηκουσεν ηλι την φωνην της βοης και ειπεν τις η βοη της φωνης ταυτης και ο ανθρωπος σπευσας εισηλθεν και απηγγειλεν τω ηλι

Now Eli was ninety-eight years old. His eyes were set, so that he could not see.

Now Eli H5941 was ninety H8673 and eight H8083 years H8141 old; H1121 and his eyes H5869 were dim,^§ H6965 (QalPerf) that he could H3201 (QalPerf) not see. H7200 (QalInf)

The man said to Eli, “I am he who came out of the army, and I fled today out of the army.” He said, “How did the matter go, my son?”

And the man H376 said H559 (QalImpf) unto Eli, H5941 I am he that came H935 (QalActPtc) out of the army, H4634 and I fled H5127 (QalPerf) to day H3117 out of the army. H4634 And he said, H559 (QalImpf) What is there done,^§ H1697 my son? H1121

και ο ανηρ σπευσας προσηλθεν προς ηλι και ειπεν αυτω εγω ειμι ο ηκων εκ της παρεμβολης καγω πεφευγα εκ της παραταξεως σημερον και ειπεν τι το γεγονος ρημα τεκνον

including Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod’s brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli the priest of Yahweh in Shiloh, wearing an ephod. The people didn’t know that Jonathan was gone.

H646 And the people H5971 knew H3045 (QalPerf) not that Jonathan H3129 was gone. H1980 (QalPerf)
