撒母耳記上 1
1 從前在辣瑪有個厄弗辣因山地的族弗人，名叫厄耳卡納，是耶洛罕的兒子，──耶洛罕是厄里胡的兒子，厄里胡是托胡的兒子，托胡是厄弗辣因人族弗的兒子。──
And he was a man one from Ramathaim Zophim from [the] hill country of Ephraim and name his [was] Elkanah [the] son of Jeroham [the] son of Elihu [the] son of Tohu [the] son of Zuph an Ephrathite.
2 他有兩個妻子：一個名叫亞納，一個名叫培尼納；培尼納有孩子，亞納卻沒有。
And [belonged] to him two wives [the] name of one [was] Hannah and [the] name of the second [was] Peninnah and it belonged to Peninnah children and [belonged] to Hannah not children.
3 這人每年從本城上史羅去朝拜祭獻萬軍的上主。那裏有厄里的兩個兒子曷弗尼和丕乃哈斯做上主的司祭。
And he went up the man that from city his from days - days towards to bow down and to sacrifice to Yahweh of hosts at Shiloh and there [the] two [the] sons of Eli Hophni and Phinehas [were] priests of Yahweh.
4 有一天，厄耳卡納獻祭後，就把祭品給了自己的妻子培尼納和她的兒女好分，
And it was the day and he sacrificed Elkanah and he gave to Peninnah wife his and to all sons her and daughters her portions.
5 只給了亞納一分；他雖喜愛亞納，無奈上主封閉了她的子宮；
And to Hannah he gave a portion one double for Hannah he loved and Yahweh he had closed womb her.
6 就因上主封閉了亞納的子宮，她的情敵便羞辱刺激她，使她憤怒。
And she provoked her rival her also provocation in order to disconcert her for he had closed Yahweh behind womb her.
7 年年都是這樣：每次她上上主的聖殿時，總是這樣刺激亞納。──亞納傷心痛哭，不肯吃飯。
And thus he did a year in a year as often as went up she in [the] house of Yahweh thus she provoked her and she wept and not she ate.
8 她的丈夫厄耳卡納對她說：「亞納，你為什麼哭，不肯用飯﹖為什麼傷心﹖難道我對你不比十個兒子還好嗎﹖」
And he said to her Elkanah husband her O Hannah why? do you weep and why? not are you eating and why? is sad heart your ¿ not [am] I good to you more than ten sons.
9 在史羅吃喝完了，亞納就起來走到上主面前；那時司祭厄里正對著上主聖殿門口，坐在椅子上。
And she arose Hannah after had eaten in Shiloh and after had drunk and Eli the priest [was] sitting on the seat at [the] doorpost of [the] temple of Yahweh.
10 她心靈愁苦，哀求上主，不斷痛哭流淚；
And she [was] bitter of soul and she prayed to Yahweh and utterly she wept.
11 且許願說：「萬軍的上主，若你垂顧你婢女的痛苦，記念我，不忘你的婢女，賜你婢女生一個男孩，我就將他一生獻於上主，一輩子不給他剃頭。」
And she vowed a vow and she said O Yahweh of hosts certainly [if] you will look - on [the] affliction of maidservant your and you will remember me and not you will forget maidservant your and you will give to maidservant of your spring of men and I will give him to Yahweh all [the] days of life his and a razor not it will go up on head his.
12 亞納在上主面前祈禱很久，厄里曾注意到她的嘴唇；
And it was that she had increased to pray before Yahweh and Eli [was] watching mouth her.
13 亞納只是心內訴說，嘴唇微動，卻聽不到她的聲音，厄里卻以為她喝醉了，
And Hannah she [was] speaking to heart her only lips her [were] quivering and voice her not it was heard and he considered her Eli to a drunken [woman].
14 就對她說：「你要醉到幾時﹖消消你身上的酒氣罷! 」
And he said to her Eli until when? will you be drunk! remove wine your from with you.
15 亞納答說：「我主! 你想錯了；我是個遭遇不幸的女人，清酒烈酒總不沾唇；我是在上主面前傾吐我的心意。
And she answered Hannah and she said no O lord my [am] a woman hard of spirit I and wine and strong drink not I have drunk and I have poured out soul my before Yahweh.
16 望你不要以為你的婢女是個壞人，因為我由於極度的痛苦悲傷，纔一直傾訴到現在。」
May not you give maidservant your before a daughter of worthlessness for from [the] greatness of complaint my and provocation my I have spoken until now.
17 厄里回答她說：「你平安的去罷! 願以色列的天主賜給你求他的事。」
And he answered Eli and he said go to peace and [the] God of Israel may he grant petition your which you have asked from with him.
18 她答說：「願你的婢女在你眼內蒙恩。」這女人就回了旅舍，吃完飯，不再愁容滿面。
And she said may she find maidservant your favor in view your and she went the woman to way her and she ate and face her not they were to her still.
19 次日早，他們起來，朝拜了上主，就回了辣瑪本家。厄耳卡納認識了妻子亞納，上主也記念了她，
And they rose early in the morning and they bowed down before Yahweh and they returned and they went to house their Ramah towards and he knew Elkanah Hannah wife his and he remembered her Yahweh.
20 亞納就懷了孕，生了一個兒子，給他起名叫撒慕爾，說：「因為是我向上主求得了他。」約過了一年，
And it was to [the] circuit of the days and she conceived Hannah and she bore a son and she called name his Samuel for from Yahweh I asked for him.
21 她的丈夫厄耳卡納和全家上史羅去，向上主奉獻年祭，並還所許的願，
And he went up the man Elkanah and all household his to sacrifice to Yahweh [the] sacrifice of the days and vow his.
22 亞納卻沒有上去，因她對丈夫說：「等孩子斷了乳，我要帶他去，將他奉獻給上主，以後他永住在那裏。」
And Hannah not she went up for she said to husband her until he will be weaned the lad and I will take him and he will appear with [the] presence of Yahweh and he will dwell there until perpetuity.
23 她的丈夫厄耳卡納對她說：「就照你的意思辦罷! 等他斷了乳再說；惟願上主實現你的話! 」於是他的妻子留在家裏，乳養孩子，直到斷了乳。
And he said to her Elkanah husband her do the good in view your remain until wean you him only may he carry out Yahweh word his and she remained the woman and she suckled son her until (had weaned she *LAH(b)*) him.
24 斷乳後，她便帶著小孩和一頭三歲的牛，一「厄法」麵和一皮囊酒，來到史羅上主的聖殿；孩子還很小。
And she brought up him with her just when she had weaned him with young bulls three and an ephah one of flour and a skin of wine and she took him [the] house of Yahweh Shiloh and the lad [was] a lad.
25 他們祭殺了牛以後，孩子的母親來到厄里前，
And they slaughtered the young bull and they brought the lad to Eli.
26 對他說：「我主，請聽：我主，就如你活著那樣真實，我就是曾在你旁邊祈求上主的那個婦人，
And she said pardon me O lord my [by] [the] life of self your O lord my I [am] the woman who stood with you in this [place] to pray to Yahweh.
27 那時我為得到這孩子祈禱，上主就賞賜了我所懇求的，
Concerning the lad this I prayed and he has granted Yahweh to me petition my which I asked from with him.
28 所以我現在把他獻於上主，他一生是屬於上主的。」亞納便把他留在上主那裏。
And also I I entrust him to Yahweh all the days which he has been he [is] asked by Yahweh and he bowed down there to Yahweh.
