1 Samuel 2:18-21 - Samuel's Life In The Tabernacle
18 Samuel served before Jehovah as a child girded with a linen ephod. 19 His mother made him a little robe. She brought it to him when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice. 20 Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said: May Jehovah give you children from this woman for the loan made to Jehovah. They returned to their home.
21 Jehovah visited Hannah so that she conceived. She bore three sons and two daughters. At the same time the child Samuel grew before Jehovah.
