Kwakulendoda ethile yaseRamathayimi, umZufi owayevela elizweni lamaqaqa elako-Efrayimi, ibizo layo lalingu-Elikhana indodana kaJerohamu, indodana ka-Elihu, indodana kaThohu, indodana kaZufi, umʼEfrayimi.
2 Anih te yuu panit tih a yuu cuek te Hannah, a pabae tah Peninnah a ming nah. Penninah te camoe om tih Hannah tah camoe om pawh.
Wayelabafazi ababili; omunye wayethiwa nguHana omunye enguPhenina. UPhenina wayelabantwana kodwa uHana engelabo.
3 Tekah hlang tah thothueng ham neh Caempuei BOEIPA nawn hamla hnin bal hnin bal amah kho lamloh Shiloh la cet. Teah te BOEIPA khosoih Eli ca rhoi Hophni neh Phinekha khaw om.
Ngeminyaka yonke indoda le yayisuka emzini wakibo isiyakhonza, inikela lomhlatshelo kuThixo uSomandla eShilo, lapho uHofini loFinehasi, amadodana amabili ka-Eli, ababengabaphristi bakaThixo khona.
4 A tue a pha tih Elkanah loh a nawn vaengah tah maehvae te a yuu Peninnah neh a capa rhoek khaw a canu rhoek khaw boeih a paek.
Kwakusithi kungafika isikhathi sokuthi u-Elikhana anikele umhlatshelo, wayenika umkakhe uPhenina lawo wonke amadodana lamadodakazi akhe izabelo zenyama.
5 BOEIPA loh a bung piim sak cakhaw Hannah tah a lungnah dongah maehvae a paek vaengah Hannah ham tah pakhat neh a rhaep pah thil.
Kodwa uHana wayemnika isabelo esiphindwe kabili ngoba wayemthanda, kodwa uThixo wayesivalile isibeletho sakhe.
6 BOEIPA loh Hannah bung a piim sak tih a caeng dongah Hannah tah konoinah neh, citcai neh hue a sak.
Njalo ngenxa yokuthi uThixo wayesivalile isibeletho sakhe, unyanewabo wayehlala emgolomba ukuze amcaphule.
7 Kum khat phoeiah kum khat BOEIPA im a paan vaengah khaw hue a sak. Te dongah rhap tih buh ca pawh.
Lokhu kwaqhubeka iminyaka yonke. Ngezikhathi zonke lapho uHana eye endlini kaThixo, unyanewabo wayemgolomba aze akhale njalo ehluleke lokudla.
8 Te dongah anih te a va Elkanah loh, “Hannah balae tih na rhah, balae tih buh na caak pawh? Balae tih na thinko a phoena? Ca tongpa parha lakah khaw nang taengah ka then moenih a?, a ti nah.
U-Elikhana umkakhe, wayesithi kuye, “Hana, ukhalelani na? Kungani ungadli na? Kungani udanile? Kuwe angiqakathekanga ukwedlula amadodana alitshumi na?”
9 Te daengah Shiloh kah Hannah loh caak ok ham thoo. Te vaengah khosoih Eli tah BOEIPA bawkim rhungsut taengkah ngolkhoel dongah ngol.
Kwake kwathi sebeqede ukudla lokunatha eShilo, uHana wasukuma. Ngalesosikhathi u-Eli umphristi wayehlezi esihlalweni phansi kwensika yomnyango wethempeli likaThixo.
10 Hannah tah a hinglu khahing tih a rhah doe a rhah doela BOEIPA taengah thangthui.
Ngobuhlungu bomoya uHana wakhala kakhulu njalo wakhuleka kuThixo.
11 Te vaengah olcaeng neh a caeng tih, “Caempuei BOEIPA, na salnu kah phacipphabaem he han so rhoela so lah. Kai he m'poek lamtah na salnu he hnilh boeh. Tedae hlang kah tiingan te na salnu ham m'pae lamtah a hing tue boeih te BOEIPA taengla kam pae eh. A lu dongah thiha loh ben boel saeh,” a ti nah.
Wafunga esithi, “Awu, Thixo Somandla, nxa ungakhangela nje usizi lwencekukazi yakho ungikhumbule, njalo ungayikhohlwa incekukazi yakho kodwa uyiphe indodana, lapho-ke ngizayinika uThixo okwensuku zonke zokuphila kwayo, njalo akulampuco ezasetshenziswe ekhanda layo.”
12 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thangthui te a koe coeng dongah Eli loh a ka te a sawt pah.
Ekuqhubekeni kwakhe uHana ekhuleka kuThixo, u-Eli wananzelela umlomo wakhe.
13 Hannah te a lungbuei khuiah cal tih a hmui ni dawk a tat coeng. Tedae a ol a yaak pawt dongah Eli loh anih te yurhui la a poek.
UHana wayekhulekela enhliziyweni yakhe, izindebe zakhe zinyikinyeka kodwa ilizwi lakhe lingezwakali. U-Eli wacabanga ukuthi wayedakiwe,
14 Te dongah anih te Eli loh, “Me hil nim na rhuihmil ve, namah te na misur dong lamkah loh cue uh saw,” a ti nah.
ngakho wathi kuye, “Koze kube nini ulokhu udakwa na? Yekela iwayini lakho.”
15 Hannah loh a doo tih, “Moenih, ka boeipa, Kai huta he ka mueihla mangkhak sut tih misur khaw yu khaw ka ok moenih. Tedae ka hinglu he BOEIPA mikhmuh ah ka kingling coeng.
“Akunjalo nkosi yami,” uHana waphendula. “Ngingowesifazane ohlupheke kakhulu. Kangizange nginathe iwayini kumbe utshwala. Kade ngisethula umphefumulo wami kuThixo.
16 Ka kohuet cungkuem neh tahae ah ka konoi nen ni ka thangthui. Na sal nu kah a muen he na kodang ah dueh boel mai.
Ungathathi incekukazi yakho njengowesifazane ogangileyo; kade ngikhuleka lapha ngenxa yosizi lwami olukhulu kanye lobuhlungu.”
17 Eli loh a doo tih, “Ngaimong la cet lamtah amah taengah na bih na huithuinah te Israel Pathen loh m'pae saeh,” a ti nah.
U-Eli waphendula wathi, “Hamba ngokuthula, sengathi uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli angakupha lokho okucele kuye.”
18 Te dongah, “Na tueihyoeih he na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen khaw dang van saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah huta te amah caeh long ah cet tih a caak. Te lamkah long tah Hannah kah maelhmai khaw pumphoe voel pawh.
UHana wathi, “Sengathi incekukazi yakho ingathola umusa emehlweni akho.” Lapho-ke wasuka wahamba, wadla, njalo ubuso bakhe babungasadananga.
19 Mincang ah thoo uh tih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah tho a thuenguh. Te phoeiah bal uh tih Ramah kah a im te a paan uh. Te vaengah Elkanah loh a yuu Hannah te a ming hatah Hannah te BOEIPA loh a poek.
Ekuseni okwalandelayo bavuka bayakhonza phambi kukaThixo basebebuyela emzini wabo eRama. U-Elikhana walala loHana umkakhe, uThixo wamkhumbula.
20 Khohnin a thoknah a pha vaengah Hannah te vawn tih ca a cun. Camoe he, “BOEIPA taengah ka bih,” a ti dongah a ming te Samuel a sak.
Ngakho ngokuhamba kwesikhathi uHana wathatha isisu wazala indodana. Wayetha ibizo wathi nguSamuyeli, esithi, “Ngoba ngamcela kuThixo.”
21 Elkanah loh BOEIPA taengah khoning hmueih neh a olcaeng nawn ham te a cako ah boeih cet uh.
Kwathi lapho u-Elikhana ehamba labendlu yakhe bonke ukuyanikela umhlatshelo weminyaka yonke kuThixo lokugcwalisa isifungo sakhe,
22 Tedae Hannah tah a caeh kolla a va taengah, “Camoe suuk a kan vaengah ka khuen bitni. Te vaengah BOEIPA hmai ah phoe vetih a kum a hal pahoi om bitni,” a ti nah.
uHana kahambanga. Wathi kumkakhe, “Emva kokuba umfana eselunyulwe, ngizamthatha ngiyemethula phambi kukaThixo, njalo uzahlala khona kokuphela.”
23 Te dongah anih te a va Elkanah loh, “Na mikhmuh ah a then la saii, anih te suk na kan sak duela om mai ngawn, a ol te BOEIPA loh thoh nawn saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah a yuu te om tih a capa loh a suk a kan duela a khut.
U-Elikhana umkakhe wathi kuye, “Yenza lokho okukhanya kukuhle kuwe. Hlala khonapho uze umkhuphe ebeleni; kuphela nje sengathi uThixo angagcwalisa ilizwi lakhe.” Ngakho owesifazane wahlala ekhaya wondla indodana yakhe waze wayilumula.
24 Camoe te suk a kan vanneh vaito kum thum, vaidam te cangnoek pakhat, misur te tuitang pakhat a khuen tih Shiloh kah BOEIPA im a paan puei. Te vaengah a capa te camoe pueng.
Emva kokuba esekhutshiwe ebeleni, wahamba lomfana, emncane enjalo kanye lenkunzi eyayileminyaka emithathu ubudala, lehefa lempuphu yengqoloyi kanye lembodlela yewayini, wamusa endlini kaThixo eShilo.
25 Vaito te a ngawn uh tih camoe te Eli taengla a thak uh.
Kwathi inkunzi sebeyihlabile, bamhambisa umfana ku-Eli,
26 Te phoeiah Hananah loh, “Aw ka Boeipa, Ka boeipa namah kah hingnah hinglu rhangneh kai tah BOEIPA taengah thangthui ham heah he namah taengah aka pai huta ni.
uHana wasesithi kuye, “Ngeqiniso elinjengoba ukhona, nkosi yami, mina ngingulowana umfazi owema phansi kwakho ekhuleka kuThixo.
27 Camoe ham he ka thangthui tih amah taeng lamkah ka bih vanbangla ka huithuinah te ka taengah BOEIPA loh m'paek coeng.
Ngakhulekela umntwana lo, njalo uThixo usengiphile engakucelayo.
28 Te dongah anih he BOEIPA ham ni ka bih tih anih a tue khohnin aka om boeih khaw BOEIPA ham ni ka bih coeng,” a ti nah tih BOEIPA taengah pahoi bakop.
Ngakho khathesi sengimnika uThixo. Uzanikwa uThixo impilo yakhe yonke.” Wakhonza uThixo khonapho.
