³ Samuel was ·also in bed [^Llying down] in the Lord’s ·house [sanctuary; temple], where the Ark of God [^Canother name for the Ark of the Covenant; 4:3] was. God’s lamp [^Cprobably the Menorah] ·was still burning [had not yet gone out].

⁴ Then the Lord called Samuel, and he answered, “I am here!” ⁵ He ran to Eli and said, “I am here. You called me.”
