ગુજરાતી1 શમુએલ ૩:૯
માટે એલીએ શમુએલને કહ્યું, “જઈને પાછો સૂઈ જા; જો તે તને ફરીથી બોલાવે, તો તારે કહેવું, ‘બોલો, ઈશ્વર, કેમ કે તમારો સેવક સાંભળે છે.’ જેથી શમુએલ ફરીથી પોતાની પથારીમાં જઈને ઊંઘી ગયો.
हिन्दी1 शमूएल ३:९
इसलिए एली ने शमूएल से कहा, “जा लेटा रह; और यदि वह तुझे फिर पुकारे, तो तू कहना, ‘हे यहोवा, कह, क्योंकि तेरा दास सुन रहा है।’” तब शमूएल अपने स्थान पर जाकर लेट गया।
