ગુજરાતી1 શમુએલ ૩:૫
શમુએલે એલીની પાસે દોડી જઈને કહ્યું, “હું આ રહ્યો, કેમ કે તેં મને બોલાવ્યો.” એલીએ કહ્યું, “મેં તને બોલાવ્યો નથી; પાછો જઈને ઊંઘી જા.” જેથી શમુએલ જઈને ઊંઘી ગયો.
हिन्दी1 शमूएल ३:५
तब उसने एली के पास दौड़कर कहा, “क्या आज्ञा, तूने तो मुझे पुकारा है।” वह बोला, “मैंने नहीं पुकारा; फिर जा लेटा रह।” तो वह जाकर लेट गया।

In context

4The LORD called Samuel. He said, “Here I am.”

5He ran to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He said, “I didn’t call. Lie down again.” He went and lay down.

6The LORD called yet again, “Samuel!” Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He answered, “I didn’t call, my son. Lie down again.”

7Now Samuel didn’t yet know the LORD, neither was the LORD’s word yet revealed to him.
