1 Samuel 3
1 And the child Samuel served Jehovah before Eli. And the word of Jehovah was precious in those days; there was no frequent vision.
Ang bata nga si Samuel nag-alagad kang Yahweh ubos kang Eli. Panagsa lang ang mga pulong ni Yahweh niadtong panahona; dili usab kanunay makakita ug panan-awon ang mga propeta.
2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim so that he could not see),
Nianang panahona, sa dihang si Eli, nagsugod na ug dulom ang iyang panan-aw maong dili na kaayo siya makakita, naghigda sa iyang kaugalingong higdaanan.
3 and the lamp of God was not yet gone out, and Samuel was laid down in the temple of Jehovah where the ark of God was,
Ang lampara sa Dios wala pa mapalong, samtang si Samuel naghigda na ug natulog didto sa templo ni Yahweh, kung asa nahimutang ang sudlanan sa kasabotan sa Dios.
4 that Jehovah called Samuel. And he said, Here I am.
Gitawag ni Yahweh si Samuel, nga miingon, “Ania ako.”
5 And he ran to Eli, and said, Here I am, for thou called me. And he said, I did not call. Lie down again. And he went and lay down.
Midagan si Samuel kang Eli ug miigon, “Ania ako, kay gitawag mo man ako.” Miingon si Eli, “Wala ko ikaw gitawag; higda ug balik.” Busa milakaw si Samuel ug mihigda pagbalik.
6 And Jehovah called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here I am, for thou called me. And he answered, I did not call, my son. Lie down again.
Mitawag pag-usab si Yahweh, “Samuel.” Mibangon pagbalik si Samuel ug miadto kang Eli ug miingon, “Ania ako, kay gitawag mo man ako.” Mitubag si Eli, “Wala ko ikaw gitawag, akong anak; higda ug balik.”
7 Now Samuel did not yet know Jehovah, neither was the word of Jehovah yet revealed to him.
Karon wala pay kasinatian si Samuel kang Yahweh, bisan paman ang mga mensahe nga gikan kang Yahweh wala pa mapadayag kaniya.
8 And Jehovah called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here I am, for thou called me. And Eli perceived that Jehovah had called the child.
Gitawag pag-usab ni Yahweh si Samuel sa ikatulong higayon. Mibangon pag-usab si Samuel ug miadto kang Eli ug miingon, “Ania ako, kay gitawag mo man ako.” Ug namatikdan ni Eli nga gitawag ni Yahweh ang maong batang lalaki.
9 Therefore Eli said to Samuel, Go, lie down, and it shall be, if he calls thee, that thou shall say, Speak, Jehovah, for thy servant hears. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
Misulti si Eli kang Samuel, “Lakaw ug balik paghigda; kung tawgon ka niya pag-usab, mao kini ang imong isulti, 'Sulti, Yahweh, kay maminaw ang imong alagad.” Busa mibalik pag-usab si Samuel paghigda sa iyang kaugalingong dapit.
10 And Jehovah came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel said, Speak, for thy servant hears.
Miabot si Yahweh ug nagtindog; mitawag siya sama sa niaging pagtawag, “Samuel, Samuel.” Mitubag si Samuel, “Sulti, kay maminaw ang imong alagad.”
11 And Jehovah said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel at which both the ears of everyone who hears it shall tingle.
Miingon si Yahweh kang Samuel, “Tan-awa, aduna akoy pagabuhaton sa Israel nga diin ang mga dalunggan nga makadungog niini motagning gayod.
12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even to the end.
Nianang adlawa pagakuhaon ko ang tanan kong gisulti mahitungod sa panimalay ni Eli, gikan sa sinugdan hangtod sa kataposan.
13 For I have told him that I will judge his house forever, for the iniquity which he knew, because his sons brought a curse upon themselves, and he did not restrain them.
Giingnan ko na siya nga akong hukman ang iyang panimalay sa tanang sala nga iyang nahibaloan, tungod kay nagdala ug tunglo ang iyang mga anak nga lalaki sa ilang kaugalingon ug wala niya sila badlonga.
14 And therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be expiated with sacrifice nor offering forever.
Tungod niini akong gipanaad sa panimalay ni Eli nga ang mga sala nga anaa sa iyang panimalay dili mapasaylo pinaagi sa bisan unsang sakripisyo o halad.”
15 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of Jehovah. And Samuel was afraid to show Eli the vision.
Mihigda si Samuel hangtod nga mibuntag; unya giablihan niya ang mga pultahan sa balay ni Yahweh. Apan nahadlok si Samuel nga isulti ang iyang panan-awon bahin kang Eli.
16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he said, Here I am.
Gitawag ni Eli si Samuel ug miingon, “Samuel, akong anak.” Miingon si Samuel, “Ania ako.”
17 And he said, What is the thing that Jehovah has spoken to thee? I pray thee, hide it not from me. God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide anything from me of all the things that he spoke to thee.
Miingon siya, “Unsa man ang mga pulong nga iyang gisulti kanimo? Palihog ayaw kini ililong kanako. Hinaot buhaton usab kini sa Dios kanimo, ug labaw pa, kung imong ililong kanako ang tanang mga pulong nga iyang gisulti kanimo.”
18 And Samuel told him every whit, and hid nothing from him. And he said, It is Jehovah. Let him do what seems him good.
Busa gisulti ni Samuel ang tanan; ug wala siyay gililong gikan kaniya. Miingon si Eli, “Siya si Yahweh. Tugoti siya sa pagbuhat kung unsay maayo kaniya.”
19 And Samuel grew, and Jehovah was with him, and let none of his words fall to the ground.
Midako na si Samuel, ug nag-uban kanunay si Yahweh kaniya ug walay bisan usa nga napakyas sa iyang gipangsulti nga mga pulong ug natuman kining tanan.
20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of Jehovah.
Ang tanang taga-Israel gikan sa Dan hangtod sa Beersheba nakabalo nga gipili si Samuel aron mahimong propeta ni Yahweh.
21 And Jehovah appeared again in Shiloh, for Jehovah revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of Jehovah.
Nagpakita pag-usab si Yahweh didto sa Silo, kay gibutyag niya ang iyang kaugalingon kang Samuel didto sa Silo pinaagi sa iyang mga pulong.
