Now in former times in Israel, concerning the redemption or exchange of property, to make any matter legally binding a man would remove his sandal and give it to the other party, and this was a confirmation in Israel.
Read word by wordSo the kinsman-redeemer removed his sandal and said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself.”
Read word by wordAt this, Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses today that I am buying from Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech, Chilion, and Mahlon.
Read word by wordMoreover, I have acquired Ruth the Moabitess, Mahlon’s widow, as my wife, to raise up the name of the deceased through his inheritance, so that his name will not disappear from among his brothers or from the gate of his home. You are witnesses today.”
Read word by word“We are witnesses,” said the elders and all the people at the gate. “May the LORD make the woman entering your home like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you be prosperous in Ephrathah and famous in Bethlehem.
Read word by wordAnd may your house become like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring the LORD will give you by this young woman.”
Read word by wordThen the women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without a kinsman-redeemer. May his name become famous in Israel.
Read word by wordAnd Naomi took the child, placed him on her lap, and became a nurse to him.
Read word by wordThe neighbor women said, “A son has been born to Naomi,” and they named him Obed. He became the father of Jesse, the father of David.
Read word by wordNow there was a man named Elkanah who was from Ramathaim-zophim in the hill country of Ephraim. He was the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
Read word by wordHe had two wives, one named Hannah and the other Peninnah. And Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none.
Read word by wordYear after year Elkanah would go up from his city to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of Hosts at Shiloh, where Eli’s two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, were priests to the LORD.
Read word by wordAnd whenever the day came for Elkanah to present his sacrifice, he would give portions to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters.
Read word by wordSo after they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh, Hannah stood up. Now Eli the priest was sitting on a chair by the doorpost of the temple of the LORD.
Read word by word“May your maidservant find favor with you,” said Hannah. Then she went on her way, and she began to eat, and her face was no longer downcast.
Read word by wordThe next morning they got up early to bow in worship before the LORD, and then they returned home to Ramah. And Elkanah had relations with his wife Hannah, and the LORD remembered her.
Read word by wordSo in the course of time, Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked for him from the LORD.”
Read word by wordThen Elkanah and all his house went up to make the annual sacrifice to the LORD and to fulfill his vow,
Read word by wordbut Hannah did not go. “After the boy is weaned,” she said to her husband, “I will take him to appear before the LORD and to stay there permanently.”
Read word by word“Do what you think is best,” her husband Elkanah replied, “and stay here until you have weaned him. Only may the LORD confirm His word.” So Hannah stayed and nursed her son until she had weaned him.
Read word by wordOnce she had weaned him, Hannah took the boy with her, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour, and a skin of wine. Though the boy was still young, she brought him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh.
Read word by wordAnd when they had slaughtered the bull, they brought the boy to Eli.
Read word by word“Please, my lord,” said Hannah, “as surely as you live, my lord, I am the woman who stood here beside you praying to the LORD.
Read word by wordI prayed for this boy, and since the LORD has granted me what I asked of Him,
Read word by wordI now dedicate the boy to the LORD. For as long as he lives, he is dedicated to the LORD.” So they worshiped the LORD there.
Read word by wordThen Elkanah went home to Ramah, but the boy began ministering to the LORD before Eli the priest.
Read word by wordor for the custom of the priests with the people. When any man offered a sacrifice, the servant of the priest would come with a three-pronged meat fork while the meat was boiling
Read word by wordand plunge it into the pan or kettle or cauldron or cooking pot. And the priest would claim for himself whatever the meat fork brought up. This is how they treated all the Israelites who came to Shiloh.
Read word by wordEven before the fat was burned, the servant of the priest would come and say to the man who was sacrificing, “Give the priest some meat to roast, because he will not accept boiled meat from you, but only raw.”
Read word by wordAnd if any man said to him, “The fat must be burned first; then you may take whatever you want,” the servant would reply, “No, you must give it to me right now. If you refuse, I will take it by force!”
Read word by wordThus the sin of these young men was severe in the sight of the LORD, for they were treating the LORD’s offering with contempt.
Read word by wordEach year his mother would make him a little robe and bring it to him when she went with her husband to offer the annual sacrifice.
Read word by wordAnd Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, saying, “May the LORD give you children by this woman in place of the one she dedicated to the LORD.” Then they would go home.
Read word by wordSo the LORD attended to Hannah, and she conceived and gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Meanwhile, the boy Samuel grew up in the presence of the LORD.
Read word by wordNow Eli was very old, and he heard about everything his sons were doing to all Israel and how they were sleeping with the women who served at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
Read word by word“Why are you doing these things?” Eli said to his sons. “I hear about your wicked deeds from all these people.
Read word by wordNo, my sons; it is not a good report I hear circulating among the LORD’s people.
Read word by wordAnd the boy Samuel continued to grow in stature and in favor with the LORD and with man.
Read word by wordYou will see distress in My dwelling place. Despite all that is good in Israel, no one in your house will ever again reach old age.
Read word by wordAnd this sign shall come to you concerning your two sons Hophni and Phinehas: They will both die on the same day.
Read word by wordThen I will raise up for Myself a faithful priest. He will do whatever is in My heart and mind. And I will build for him an enduring house, and he will walk before My anointed one for all time.
Read word by wordAnd everyone left in your house will come and bow down to him for a piece of silver or a morsel of bread, pleading, “Please appoint me to some priestly office so that I can eat a piece of bread.”’”
Read word by wordAnd the boy Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. Now in those days the word of the LORD was rare, and visions were scarce.
Read word by wordAnd at that time Eli, whose eyesight had grown so dim that he could not see, was lying in his room.
Read word by wordOn that day I will carry out against Eli everything I have spoken about his house, from beginning to end.
Read word by wordSamuel lay down until the morning; then he opened the doors of the house of the LORD. He was afraid to tell Eli the vision,
Read word by word“What was the message He gave you?” Eli asked. “Do not hide it from me. May God punish you, and ever so severely, if you hide from me anything He said to you.”
Read word by wordSo Samuel told him everything and did not hide a thing from him. “He is the LORD,” replied Eli. “Let Him do what is good in His eyes.”
Read word by wordThus the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now the Israelites went out to meet the Philistines in battle and camped at Ebenezer, while the Philistines camped at Aphek.
Read word by wordThe Philistines arrayed themselves against Israel, and as the battle spread, Israel was defeated by the Philistines, who struck down about four thousand men on the battlefield.
