17 And he said, H559 What is the thing H1697 that the LORD hath said H1696 unto thee? I pray thee hide H3582 it not from me: God H430 do so H6213 to thee, and more also, H3254 if thou hide H3582 any thing H1697 from me of all the things H1697 that he said H1696 unto thee.

And say H559 ye to Amasa, H6021 Art thou not of my bone, H6106 and of my flesh? H1320 God H430 do H6213 so to me, and more H3254 also, if thou be not captain H8269 of the host H6635 before H6440 me continually H3117 in the room H8478 of Joab. H3097

The king H4430 spake, H6032 and said, H560 Belteshazzar, H1096 let not H409 the dream, H2493 or the interpretation H6591 thereof, trouble H927 thee.

Commentary on 1 Samuel 3 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 3
In the foregoing chapter we had Samuel a young priest, though by birth a Levite only, for he ministered before the Lord in a linen ephod; in this chapter we have him a young prophet, which was more, God in an extraordinary manner revealing himself to him, and in him reviving, if not commencing, prophecy in Israel. Here is,
1Sa 3:1-10

The manner of God's revealing himself to Samuel is here related very particularly, for it was uncommon.
1Sa 3:11-18
