2 One night Eli, whose eyes were becoming so weak that he could barely see, was lying down in his usual place.

2 At that time Eli, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim so that he could not see, was lying down in his own place.

2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see;

2 And it came to pass at that time, while Eli was lying down in his place, and when his eyes had begun to grow so dim that he could not see,

2 Eli’s eyes were so weak he was almost blind. One night he was lying in bed.

2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to wax dim, so that he could not see),

2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli lay in his place (now his eyes began to grow dim, he could not see),

2 One night Eli was lying down in his room. His eyesight had begun to fail so that he couldn’t see well.

2 One day Eli, whose eyesight was failing, was lying in his room.

2 At that time Eli, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim so that he could not see, was lying down in his room;

2 And then one day when Eli was lying in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow weak so that he was not able to see)

2 One night Eli was lying down in his usual place. His eyes were becoming so weak he couldn’t see very well.

2 It happened at that time as Eli was lying down in his place (now his eyesight had begun to grow dim and he could not see well),
