Year after year, when she went up to the LORD’s house, her rival taunted her in this way. Hannah would weep and would not eat.
The next morning Elkanah and Hannah got up early to worship before the LORD. Afterward, they returned home to Ramah. Then Elkanah was intimate with his wife Hannah, and the LORD remembered her.
When Elkanah and all his household went up to make the annual sacrifice and his vow offering to the LORD,
Elkanah went home to Ramah, but the boy served the LORD in the presence of the priest Eli.
A man of God came to Eli and said to him, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Didn’t I reveal myself to your forefather’s family[fn] when they were in Egypt and belonged to Pharaoh’s palace?
“Out of all the tribes of Israel, I chose your house[fn] to be my priests, to offer sacrifices on my altar, to burn incense, and to wear an ephod in my presence. I also gave your forefather’s family all the Israelite food offerings.
“Therefore, this is the declaration of the LORD, the God of Israel: ‘I did say that your family and your forefather’s family would walk before me forever. But now,’ this is the LORD’s declaration, ‘no longer! For those who honor me I will honor, but those who despise me will be disgraced.
“Look, the days are coming when I will cut off your strength and the strength of your forefather’s family, so that none in your family will reach old age.
“You will see distress in the place of worship, in spite of all that is good in Israel, and no one in your family will ever again reach old age.
“ ‘Then I will raise up a faithful priest for myself. He will do whatever is in my heart and mind. I will establish a lasting dynasty for him, and he will walk before my anointed one for all time.
“Anyone who is left in your family will come and bow down to him for a piece of silver or a loaf of bread. He will say: Please appoint me to some priestly office so I can have a piece of bread to eat.’ ”
“On that day I will carry out against Eli everything I said about his family, from beginning to end.
“I told him that I am going to judge his family forever because of the iniquity he knows about: his sons are cursing God,[fn] and he has not stopped them.
“Therefore, I have sworn to Eli’s family: The iniquity of Eli’s family will never be wiped out by either sacrifice or offering.”
Samuel lay down until the morning; then he opened the doors of the LORD’s house. He was afraid to tell Eli the vision,
That is why, still today, the priests of Dagon and everyone who enters the temple of Dagon in Ashdod do not step on Dagon’s threshold.
“Now then, prepare one new cart and two milk cows that have never been yoked. Hitch the cows to the cart, but take their calves away and pen them up.
The men did this: They took two milk cows, hitched them to the cart, and confined their calves in the pen.
So the people of Kiriath-jearim came for the ark of the LORD and took it to Abinadab’s house on the hill. They consecrated his son Eleazar to take care of it.
Time went by until twenty years had passed since the ark had been taken to Kiriath-jearim. Then the whole house of Israel longed for the LORD.
Samuel told them, “If you are returning to the LORD with all your heart, get rid of the foreign gods and the Ashtoreths that are among you, set your hearts on the LORD, and worship only him. Then he will rescue you from the Philistines.”
Then he would return to Ramah because his home was there, he judged Israel there, and he built an altar to the LORD there.
Saul approached Samuel in the city gate and asked, “Would you please tell me where the seer’s house is? ”
“As for the donkeys that wandered away from you three days ago, don’t worry about them because they’ve been found. And who does all Israel desire but you and all your father’s family? ”
Samuel proclaimed to the people the rights of kingship. He wrote them on a scroll, which he placed in the presence of the LORD. Then Samuel sent all the people home.
Saul also went to his home in Gibeah, and brave men whose hearts God had touched went with him.
Previously, an Israelite man had declared, “Do you see this man who keeps coming out? He comes to defy Israel. The king will make the man who kills him very rich and will give him his daughter. The king will also make the family of that man’s father exempt from paying taxes in Israel.”
Saul kept David with him from that day on and did not let him return to his father’s house.
The next day an evil spirit sent from God came powerfully on Saul, and he began to rave[fn] inside the palace. David was playing the lyre as usual, but Saul was holding a spear,
Now an evil spirit sent from the LORD came on Saul as he was sitting in his palace holding a spear. David was playing the lyre,
Saul sent agents to David’s house to watch for him and kill him in the morning. But his wife Michal warned David, “If you don’t escape tonight, you will be dead tomorrow! ”
“don’t ever withdraw your kindness from my household — not even when the LORD cuts off every one of David’s enemies from the face of the earth.”
Then Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, “May the LORD hold David’s enemies accountable.”[fn]
“Do I have such a shortage of crazy people that you brought this one to act crazy around me? Is this one going to come into my house? ”
So David left Gath and took refuge in the cave of Adullam. When David’s brothers and his father’s whole family heard, they went down and joined him there.
The king sent messengers to summon the priest Ahimelech son of Ahitub, and his father’s whole family, who were priests in Nob. All of them came to the king.
Ahimelech replied to the king, “Who among all your servants is as faithful as David? He is the king’s son-in-law, captain of your bodyguard, and honored in your house.
“Was today the first time I inquired of God for him? Of course not! Please don’t let the king make an accusation against your servant or any of my father’s family, for your servant didn’t have any idea[fn] about all this.”
But the king said, “You will die, Ahimelech — you and your father’s whole family! ”
Then David said to Abiathar, “I knew that Doeg the Edomite was there that day and that he was sure to report to Saul. I myself am responsible for[fn] the lives of everyone in your father’s family.
Then the two of them made a covenant in the LORD’s presence. Afterward, David remained in Horesh, while Jonathan went home.
“Therefore swear to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants or wipe out my name from my father’s family.”
So David swore to Saul. Then Saul went back home, and David and his men went up to the stronghold.
Samuel died, and all Israel assembled to mourn for him, and they buried him by his home in Ramah. David then went down to the Wilderness of Paran.[fn]
“Then say this: ‘Long life to you,[fn] and peace to you, peace to your family, and peace to all that is yours.
