1 Samuel 3:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ Thus did Samuel, before he knew the LORD and before the Word of the LORD was revealed to him.

⁸ And the LORD called Samuel again, a third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, “I am here! For you have called me.” Then Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.

⁹ Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “Go. Sleep. And if He calls you, then say, “Speak LORD, for Your servant hears.” So, Samuel went and slept in his place.
