In the text
Numbers 34:20And of the tribe of the children of Simeon, Shemuel the son of Ammihud.1 Samuel 1:20Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the Lord.1 Samuel 2:18But Samuel ministered before the Lord, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.1 Samuel 2:21And the Lord visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the Lord.1 Samuel 2:26And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the Lord, and also with men.1 Samuel 3:1And 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.1 Samuel 3:3And 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;1 Samuel 3:4That the Lord called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I.1 Samuel 3:6And 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.1 Samuel 3:7Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, neither was the word of the Lord yet revealed unto him.
