01 : 14 And Eli <05941  +<Eliy > said <00559  +>amar > unto her ,

01 : 16 Count <05414  +nathan > not thine handmaid <00519

01 : 20 Wherefore it came <01961  +hayah > to pass ,  when the

03 : 06 And the LORD <03068  +Y@hovah > called <07121  +qara> >

03 : 07 Now Samuel <08050  +Sh@muw>el > did not yet <02962

03 : 08 And the LORD <03068  +Y@hovah > called <07121  +qara> >

03 : 10 And the LORD <03068  +Y@hovah > came <00935  +bow> > ,

03 : 13 For I have told <05046  +nagad > him that I will judge

,  and he restrained <03543  +kahah > them not .

03 : 14 And therefore I have sworn <07650  +shaba< > unto the

house
