Listen to 1 Samuel 3:16-21
16 Llamando, pues, El铆 a Samuel, le dijo: Hijo m铆o, Samuel. Y 茅l respondi贸: Heme aqu铆.
17 Y dijo: 驴Qu茅 es la palabra que te habl贸 el SE脩OR ? Te ruego que no me la encubras. As铆 te haga Dios y as铆 te a帽ada, si me encubrieres palabra de todo lo que habl贸 contigo.
18 Y Samuel se lo manifest贸 todo, sin encubrirle nada. Entonces 茅l dijo: El SE脩OR es; haga lo que bien le pareciere.
19 Y Samuel creci贸, y el SE脩OR fue con 茅l, y no dej贸 caer a tierra ninguna de sus palabras.
20 Y conoci贸 todo Israel desde Dan hasta Beerseba, que Samuel era fiel profeta del SE脩OR.
21 As铆 volvi贸 el SE脩OR a aparecer en Silo; porque el SE脩OR se manifest贸 a Samuel en Silo con palabra del SE脩OR.

1 Samuel 3:16-21 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO FIRST SAMUEL 3

This chapter gives an account of the Lord's calling to Samuel in the night season, which he first took for the voice of Eli, but being instructed by him, made answer to the voice, 1Sa 3:1-10, and of a message sent from him by Samuel to Eli, foretelling the destruction of his family, 1Sa 3:11-14 and of the delivery of it to him, which Samuel was first fearful of doing, but, encouraged by Eli, he delivered it to him, to which he patiently submitted, 1Sa 3:15-18 and the chapter is closed with the establishment of Samuel as a prophet of the Lord, who continued to appear and reveal himself to him, 1Sa 3:19-21.
