"And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli.
And the word of the LORD was precious in those days: there
was no open vision. And it came to pass at that time, when
Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax
dim, that he could not see; and ere the lamp of GOD went out
in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of GOD was, and
Samuel was laid down to sleep; that the LORD called Samuel:
and he answered, Here am I. And he ran unto Eli, and said,
Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I called not;
lie down again. And he went and lay down. And the LORD
called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to
Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he
answered, I called not, my son; lie down again. Now,
Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word
of the LORD yet revealed unto him. And the LORD called
Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli,
and said, Here am I for thou didst call me. And Eli per-
Iceived that the LORD had called the child. Therefore Eli
said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if He call
thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD; for Thy servant
heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place. And
the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times,
Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for Thy
servant heareth. I SAM. iii. 1-10,

"Doth the ploughman plough all day to sow? doth he open and
break the clods of his ground? When he hath made plain

the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and
scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat, and the
appointed barley, and the rye, in their place? For his GOD
doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him. For the
fitches are not threshed with a threshing-instrument, neither
is a cart-wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches
are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
Bread-corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing
it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with
his horsemen." ISAIAH Xxviii. 24-28,
