1 Sa:miuele 1
1 Goumi soge amoga Ifala: ime fifi lai dunu ilia da La: ima moilaiga fi dialu. Amogai dunu afae Elega: ina esalu. E da Yilouha: me ea mano, amola ea aowa da Ilaihu galu. Ea sosogo fi da Douhu fi amoga galu, be fidafa da Safe.
There was a man of Armathaim Sipha, of mount Ephraim, and his name [was] Helkana, a son of Jeremeel the son of Elias the son of Thoke, in Nasib Ephraim.
2 Elega: ina da uda aduna lai galu. Elea dio da Ha: na amola Binina. Binina da mano gilisi galu, be Ha: na da aligime esalu.
And he [had] two wives; the name of the one [was] Anna, and the name of the second Phennana. And Phennana had children, but Anna had no child.
3 Elega: ina da ode huluane Siailou moilaiga Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: , amola gobele sala ahoasu. Amogawi, Ilai ea mano aduna amo Hofenai amola Finia: se da Hina Gode Ea gobele salasu ouligisu dunu esalu.
And the man went up from year to year from his city, from Armathaim, to worship and sacrifice to the Lord God of Sabaoth at Selom: and [there were] Heli and his two sons Ophni and Phinees, the priests of the Lord.
4 Elega: ina da ea gobele salasu liligi ianoba, e da heda: sini na: iyadodi afae Bininama iasu, amola eno afae Binina ea manogili sagosu.
And the day came, and Helkana sacrificed, and gave portions to his wife Phennana and her children.
5 Elega: ina da Ha: na ema bagade asigisu, be amomane ema heda: sini afae afae fawane ianusu. Bai Hina Gode da Ha: na ema mano hame i.
And to Anna he gave a prime portion, because she had no child, only Helkana loved Anna more than the other; but the Lord [had] closed her womb.
6 Binina da Ha: na ema hame asigisu. E da Ha: na ema da: da: losu. Bai Hina Gode da Ha: na aligime hamonesi, e da Ha: nama da: da: losu.
For the Lord gave her no child in her affliction, and according to the despondency of her affliction; and she was dispirited on this account, that the Lord shut up her womb so as not to give her a child.
7 Amanemusu hamonana ode bagohame gidigisa asi. Ilia da Hina Gode Ea diasuga ahoanoba, Binina da Ha: na da: i dioma: ne gadesu amola da: da: losu hamobeba: le, Ha: na bagadewane da: i dione amola disu amola ha: i manu gobei amoga hamedafa nasu.
So she did year by year, in going up to the house of the Lord; and she was dispirited, and wept, and did not eat.
8 Be egoa Elega: ina da Ha: nama agoane adole ba: su, “Ha: na! Abuliba: le di da dinana amola ha: i manu gobei hame nahala: ? Abuliba: le di da eso huluane da: i dioiwane ba: sala: ? Di da nama asigi hou da dunu mano nabuane gala ilima asigi hou da hame baligiyale dawa: bela: ?”
And Helkana her husband said to her, Anna: and she said to him, Here [am] I, my lord: and he said to her, What ails thee that thou weepest? and why dost thou not eat? and why does thy heart smite thee? [am] I not better to thee than ten children?
9 Eso afaega, Hina Gode Ea diasu Siailou moilaiga amo ganodini ha: i nanu fisiagale, Ha: na da wa: legadole, e da bagade da: i dione amola Hina Godema sia: ne gadosa ha: gidafa dinanu. Amogalu, gobele salasu ouligisu dunu Ilai da logo holei gadenenewane hi fisu fafai da: iya esalu.
And Anna rose up after they had eaten in Selom, and stood before the Lord: and Heli the priest [was] on a seat by the threshold of the temple of the Lord.
And she [was] very much grieved in spirit, and prayed to the Lord, and wept abundantly.
11 Ha: na da Hina Godema amane ilegele sia: i, “Hina Gode Bagadedafa! Nama ba: ma! Na da Dia hawa: hamosu uda! Na da: i dioi ba: ma, amola na mae gogolema! Dia nagili mano ima! Amasea, amo mano na da Dima bu mogili gagale imunu, amalu ea dialuma hinabo hamedafa damunisimu.”
And she vowed a vow to the Lord, saying, O Lord God of Sabaoth, if thou welt indeed look upon the humiliation of thine handmaid, and remember me, and give to thine handmaid a man-child, then will I indeed dedicate him to thee till the day of his death; and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink, and no razor shall come upon his head.
12 Ha: na da agoane Hina Godema sia: ne gadosa aligili bagadewane sia: ne gadolalusu. Amola Ilai da Ha: na ea lafi sosodolalu.
And it came to pass, while she was long praying before the Lord, that Heli the priest marked her mouth.
13 Ha: na da sadoga sia: ne gadosu. Ea lafi da fafudalu be sia: da hame nabi. Amaiba: le, Ilai da amo uda adini nanu, feloabeyale dawa: lu,
And she was speaking in her heart, and her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: and Heli accounted her a drunken woman.
14 amola Ha: nama amane sia: i, “Yolema! Adini nanu di dunu eno ilia ba: ma: ne mae hidama. Adini nanu yolesili, bu gahegima.”
And the servant of Heli said to her, How long wilt thou be drunken? take away thy wine from thee, and go out from the presence of the Lord.
15 Ha: na da bu adole i, “Esega! Na da we adini maiga hame feloasa. Na da hiawini, na da: i dioi huluane Hina Godema olelelala.
And Anna answered and said, Nay, my lord, [I live] in a hard day, and I have not drunk wine or strong drink, and I pour out my soul before the Lord.
16 Na da hamedei udayale mae dawa: ma. Na agoane sia: ne gadoi. Bai na bagade da: i dioiba: le fawane, agoane sia: ne gadoi.”
Count not thy handmaid for a pestilent woman, for by reason of the abundance of my importunity I have continued [my prayer] until now.
17 Ilai da amane sia: i, “Hahawane masa! Amola Isala: ili Gode da dia hanai adole ba: i liligi dima imunu da defea.”
And Heli answered and said to her, Go in peace: the God of Israel give thee all thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.
18 Ha: na da bu adole i, “Di da eso huluane nama asabole dawa: lumu da defea.” Amalalu, e da asili, ha: i nanu, ea da: i dioi fisi dagoi ba: i.
And she said, Thine handmaid has found favour in thine eyes: and the woman went her way, and entered into her lodging, and ate and drank with her husband, and her countenance was no more sad.
19 Amalu, golale hahabedafa, Elega: ina amola ea sosogo huluane da wa: legadole, Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadolalu, ili La: ima moilaiga buhagi. Elega: ina da idua Ha: nala gilisili golai, amola Hina Gode da Ha: na ea sia: ne gadoi adole ba: i defele ema i.
And they rise early in the morning, and worship the Lord, and they go their way: and Helkana went into his house at Armathaim, and knew his wife Anna; and the Lord remembered her, and she conceived.
20 Amalu, Ha: na da abula agui esalu, dunu mano lalelegei. Ha: na da ea mano ea dio Sa: miuele asuli. Sa: miuele amo dawa: loma: ne da “Na da e lama: ne, Hina Godema adole ba: i.”
And it came to pass when the time was come, that she brought forth a son, and called his name Samuel, and said, Because I asked him of the Lord God of Sabaoth.
21 Elega: ina amola ea sosogo fi ilia da odegamusu Siailou moilaiga Godema gobele sala ahoasu, be amo eso da doaga: iba: le, e da liligi eno ida: iwane galamusu Godema gobele salimusa: ilegei.
And the man Helkana and all his house went up to offer in Selom the yearly sacrifice, and his vows, and all the tithes of his land.
22 Be amo asi amoga Ha: na da hame asi. E da egoama amane sia: i, “Na mano da dodo nanu yolesea, na da Hina Gode Ea diasuga asula masunu. Amogai e da eso huluane esaloma: ne.”
But Anna did not go up with him, for she said to her husband, [I will not go up] until the child goes up, when I have weaned him, and he shall be presented before the Lord, and he shall abide there continually.
23 Amalalu, Elega: ina da bu adole i, “Defea! Dia hanai habo da defea galea amo hamoma. Diasua esala, dodo nanusu yolesea fawane Gode Ea diasuga masa. Amola Hina Gode da dia ilegele mogili gagai sia: i amo dafawane hamomu da defea.” Amaiba: le, Ha: na da diasua esalu, mano ouligilalu.
And Helkana her husband said to her, Do that which is good in thine eyes, abide still until thou shalt have weaned him; but may the Lord establish that which comes out of thy mouth: and the woman tarried, and suckled her son until she had weaned him.
24 Ha: na da manoma dodo ianu yolei galu, e da Sa: miuele Siailou moilaiga oule asi. Amogai e da bulamagau gawali ode udiana gidigi adole amola agi10 gilogala: me agoane amola ohe gadofoga hamoi esaga waini hano dili sali amo gaguli asi.
And she went up with him to Selom with a calf of three years old, and loaves, and an ephah of fine flour, and a bottle of wine: and she entered into the house of the Lord in Selom, and the child with them.
25 Ili da bulamagau fane ligisilalu, mano amo oule Ilaima asi.
And they brought him before the Lord; and his father slew his offering which he offered from year to year to the Lord; and he brought near the child, and slew the calf; and Anna the mother of the child brought him to Heli.
26 Ha: na da Ilaima amane sia: i, “Ae esega! Dia da na dawa: bela: ? Na da uda musa: dia ba: i gui Hina Godema sia: ne gadosa lelebe ba: i.
And she said, I pray thee, my lord, as thy soul liveth, I [am] the woman that stood in thy presence with thee while praying to the Lord.
27 Na da goe mano nama ima: ne Hina Godema adole ba: lalu, amaiba: le E da nagili mano i amo wea.
For this child I prayed; and the Lord has given me my request that I asked of him.
28 Amaiba: le, na da amo mano Hina Godema ia misi. Amalu ea fifi ahoanusu huluane da Hina Gode Hifawane da ouligilalumu,” Ha: na da amane sia: i. Amalu, ilia da goega gilisili Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi.
And I lend him to the Lord all his days that he lives, a loan to the Lord: and she said,
