< 1 Samuelova 1 >

1 Byl muž nějaký z Ramataim Zofim, s hory Efraim, jehož jméno bylo Elkána, syn Jerochama, syna Elihu, syna Tohu, syna Zuf Efratejského.
There was a certain man from Ramah of Zophim, on Mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
2 A ten měl dvě ženy, jméno jedné Anna, a jméno druhé Penenna. Měla pak Penenna děti, ale Anna neměla dětí.
And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the second was Peninnah. And Peninnah had sons. But Hannah did not have children.
3 I chodíval muž ten z města svého každého roku, aby se klaněl a obětoval Hospodinu zástupů, do Sílo, kdež byli dva synové Elí, Ofni a Fínes, kněží Hospodinovi.
And this man went up from his city, on the established days, so that he might adore and sacrifice to the Lord of hosts at Shiloh. Now the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests of the Lord, were in that place.
4 Když pak přišel den, v němž obětoval Elkána, dal Penenně manželce své, a všechněm synům i dcerám jejím díly.
Then the day arrived, and Elkanah immolated. And he gave portions to his wife Peninnah, and to all her sons and daughters.
5 Anně pak dal díl jeden výborný, nebo Annu miloval, ale Hospodin zavřel byl život její.
But to Hannah he gave one portion with sorrow. For he loved Hannah, but the Lord had closed her womb.
6 Přesto kormoutila ji také velmi protivnice její, toliko aby ji popouzela, proto že Hospodin zavřel byl život její.
And her rival afflicted her and vehemently distressed her, to a great extent, for she rebuked her that the Lord had closed her womb.
7 To když činíval každého roku, a Anna též chodívala do domu Hospodinova, tak ji kormoutívala protivnice; ona pak plakávala a nic nejídala.
And she did so every year, when the time returned for them to ascend to the temple of the Lord. And she provoked her in this way. And so, she wept and did not take food.
8 Tedy řekl jí Elkána muž její: Anna, proč pláčeš? A proč nejíš? Proč tak truchlí srdce tvé? Zdaliž já nejsem tobě lepší nežli deset synů?
Therefore, her husband Elkanah said to her: “Hannah, why are you weeping? And why do you not eat? And for what reason do you afflict your heart? Am I not better to you than ten sons?”
9 Vstala tedy Anna, když pojedli v Sílo a napili se; a Elí kněz seděl na stolici u veřeje chrámu Hospodinova.
And so, after she ate and drank at Shiloh, Hannah rose up. And Eli, the priest, was sitting on the seat before the door of the temple of the Lord.
10 Ona pak jsuci v hořkosti srdce, modlila se Hospodinu a plakala velmi.
And since Hannah was bitter in soul, she prayed to the Lord, weeping greatly.
11 A učinila slib, řkuci: Hospodine zástupů, jestliže vzhlédneš na trápení děvky své a rozpomeneš se na mne, a nezapomeneš na děvku svou, ale dáš služebnici své plod pohlaví mužského: tedy dám jej tobě, Hospodine, po všecky dny života jeho, a břitva nevejde na hlavu jeho.
And she made a vow, saying, “O Lord of hosts, if, in looking with favor, you will see the affliction of your servant and will remember me, and will not forget your handmaid, and if you will give to your servant a male child, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall pass over his head.”
12 I stalo se, když se dlouho modlila před Hospodinem, že Elí pozor měl na ústa její.
Then it happened that, while she multiplied prayers before the Lord, Eli observed her mouth.
13 Ale Anna mluvila v srdci svém; toliko rtové její se hýbali, hlasu pak jejího nebylo slyšeti. I domníval se Elí, že by opilá byla.
For Hannah was speaking in her heart, and only her lips moved, and her voice was barely heard. Therefore, Eli considered her to be drunk,
14 Protož řekl jí Elí: Dlouho-liž budeš opilá? Vystřízvěj z vína svého.
and so he said to her: “How long will you be inebriated? You should take only a little wine, but instead you are drenched.”
15 Odpověděla Anna, řkuci: Nikoli, pane můj, žena jsem ducha truchlivého, ani vína ani nápoje opojného jsem nepila, ale vylila jsem duši svou před Hospodinem.
Responding, Hannah said: “By no means, my lord. For I am an exceedingly unhappy woman, and I drank neither wine, nor anything that can inebriate. Instead, I have poured out my soul in the sight of the Lord.
16 Nepřirovnávejž děvky své k ženě bezbožné, nebo z velikého myšlení a hořkosti své mluvila jsem až dosavad.
You should not repute your handmaid as one of the daughters of Belial. For I have been speaking from the abundance of my sorrow and grief, even until now.”
17 Jíž odpověděl Elí, řka: Jdiž u pokoji, a Bůh Izraelský dejž tobě k prosbě tvé, zač jsi ho prosila.
Then Eli said to her: “Go in peace. And may the God of Israel grant to you your petition, which you have begged of him.”
18 I řekla: Ó by nalezla děvka tvá milost před očima tvýma! Tedy odšedši žena cestou svou, pojedla, a tvář její nebyla více smutná.
And she said, “I wish that your handmaid may find grace in your eyes.” And the woman went on her way, and she ate, and her countenance was no longer changed for the worse.
19 I vstali velmi ráno, a poklonu učinivše před Hospodinem, navrátili se, a přišli do domu svého do Ramata. Poznal pak Elkána Annu manželku svou, a Hospodin rozpomenul se na ni.
And they rose up in the morning, and they worshipped before the Lord. And they returned and arrived at their own house at Ramah. Then Elkanah knew his wife Hannah. And the Lord remembered her.
20 I stalo se po vyplnění dnů, jakž počala Anna, že porodila syna, a nazvala jméno jeho Samuel; nebo řekla: Vyprosila jsem ho na Hospodinu.
And it happened that, in the course of days, Hannah conceived and bore a son. And she called his name Samuel, because she had requested him from the Lord.
21 Šel pak muž ten Elkána se vší čeledí svou, aby obětoval Hospodinu obět výroční a slib svůj.
Now her husband Elkanah ascended with his entire house, so that he might immolate to the Lord a solemn sacrifice, with his vow.
22 Ale Anna nešla, nebo řekla muži svému: Až odchovám dítě, tehdy povedu je, aby ukáže se před Hospodinem, zůstalo tam na věky.
But Hannah did not go up. For she said to her husband, “I will not go, until the infant has been weaned, and until I may lead him, so that he may appear before the sight of the Lord, and may remain always there.”
23 I řekl jí Elkána muž její: Učiň, cožť se dobrého vidí, zůstaň, dokudž neodchováš jeho. Ó by toliko utvrdil Hospodin slovo své! A tak zůstala žena, a krmila syna svého, až jej i odchovala.
And her husband Elkanah said to her: “Do what seems good to you, and stay until you wean him. And I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word.” Therefore, the woman remained at home, and she breastfed her son, until she withdrew him from milk.
24 Potom, když ho odchovala, vedla jej s sebou, se třmi volky a jednou efi mouky a nádobou vína, i uvedla jej do domu Hospodinova v Sílo; dítě pak ještě bylo malé.
And after she had weaned him, she brought him with her, along with three calves, and three measures of flour, and a small bottle of wine, and she led him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh. But the boy was still a young child.
25 Tedy zabili volka a přivedli dítě k Elí.
And they immolated a calf, and they presented the boy to Eli.
26 Ona pak řekla: Poslyš mne, pane můj. Jako jest živa duše tvá, pane můj, já jsem žena ta, kteráž jsem stála tuto s tebou, modleci se Hospodinu.
And Hannah said: “I beg you, my lord, as your soul lives, my lord: I am that woman, who stood before you here, praying to the Lord.
27 Za toto dítě jsem prosila, a dal mi Hospodin k prosbě mé to, čehož jsem prosila od něho.
I prayed for this child, and the Lord granted to me my petition, which I asked of him.
28 Protož já také oddávám jej Hospodinu; po všecky dny, v nichž živ bude, oddanýť jest Hospodinu. A učinil tu poklonu Hospodinu.
Because of this, I have also lent him to the Lord, for all the days when he shall be lent to the Lord.” And they adored the Lord in that place. And Hannah prayed, and she said:
