1 Samuel 1
1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim, a Zuphite of the hill-country of Ephraim, named Elkanah; he was the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:
Oasr sie mwet su pangpang Elkanah in sruf lal Ephraim, su muta in Ramah in eol Ephraim. El wen natul Jeroham, su ma natul Elihu ac ma in sou lal Tohu, su ma in ota lal Zuph.
2 And he had two wives, one named Hannah and the other Peninnah: and Peninnah was the mother of children, but Hannah had no children.
Oasr mutan luo kial Elkanah: ineltal pa Hannah ac Peninnah. Oasr tulik natul Peninnah, a wangin tulik natul Hannah.
3 Now this man went up from his town every year to give worship and to make offerings to the Lord of armies in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.
Yac nukewa Elkanah el ac som liki acn Ramah nu Shiloh in alu ac orek kisa nu sin LEUM GOD Kulana. Hophni ac Phinehas, wen luo natul Eli, eltal mwet tol lun LEUM GOD we.
4 And when the day came for Elkanah to make his offering, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, their part of the feast:
Kais sie pacl Elkanah el oru mwe kisa lal, el ac sang ip se nu sel Peninnah ac kais sie ip nu sin wen ac acn natul.
5 But to Hannah he gave one part, though Hannah was very dear to him, but the Lord had not let her have children.
Elkanah el ne arulana lungse Hannah yohk, tuh el ac sang ip sefanna nu sel ke sripen LEUM GOD El kaliya insial tuh in wangin tulik natul.
6 And the other wife did everything possible to make her unhappy, because the Lord had not let her have children;
Peninnah el lungse angnol Hannah ke sripen God El aktalapyal, oru arulana toasr insial Hannah kac.
7 And year by year, whenever she went up to the house of the Lord, she kept on attacking her, so that Hannah gave herself up to weeping and would take no food.
Lumah se inge orek yac nu ke yac — pacl nukewa ma elos ac som nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD, Peninnah el ac aktoasryal Hannah, oru el tung ac tia pac lungse mongo.
8 Then her husband Elkanah said to her, Hannah, why are you weeping? and why are you taking no food? why is your heart troubled? am I not more to you than ten sons?
Elkanah, mukul tumal, el ac fahk, “Hannah, efu ku kom tung? Efu ku kom tia mongo? Efu ku kom toasr pacl nukewa? Ya nga tia wo liki wen singoul nu sum?”
9 So after they had taken food and wine in the guest room, Hannah got up. Now Eli the priest was seated by the pillars of the doorway of the Temple of the Lord.
Sie pacl ah tukun elos mongo ac nim tari in lohm sin LEUM GOD in acn Shiloh, Hannah el tuyak ac fahkulak sifacna ye mutun LEUM GOD. Eli, mwet tol, el muta ke nien muta lal sisken sru in mutunoa ke tempul lun LEUM GOD.
10 And with grief in her soul, weeping bitterly, she made her prayer to the Lord.
Hannah el arulana supwar, ac el arulana tung ac pre nu sin LEUM GOD.
11 And she made an oath, and said, O Lord of armies, if you will truly take note of the sorrow of your servant, not turning away from me but keeping me in mind, and will give me a man-child, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and his hair will never be cut.
Na el oru sie wulela na ku ac fahk, “LEUM GOD kulana, liyeyu, mwet kulansap lom! Liye mwe keok luk ac esamyu! Nikmet mulkinyula! Kom fin ase sie wen nutik, nga ac fah kisakunulot nu sum tuh elan sie mwet Nazirite in moul lal nufon. El ac fah tia nim wain ku kutena mwe nim ku, oayapa ac fah tiana kalkulla insifal.”
12 Now while she was a long time in prayer before the Lord, Eli was watching her mouth.
Hannah el pre ke pacl na loes se, ac Eli el ngetang liye oalul.
13 For Hannah's prayer came from her heart, and though her lips were moving she made no sound: so it seemed to Eli that she was overcome with wine.
Hannah el pre ke insial. Ngoasrol mukuikui a wangin pusracl, oru Eli el nunku mu Hannah el sruhi.
14 And Eli said to her, How long are you going to be the worse for drink? Put away the effects of your wine from you.
Ac Eli el fahk nu sel Hannah, “Kom ac sruhi nwe ngac? Tui. Nimet sifilpa nimnim.”
15 And Hannah, answering him, said, No, my lord, I am a woman whose spirit is broken with sorrow: I have not taken wine or strong drink, but I have been opening my heart before the Lord.
Hannah el fahk, “Leum se, nga tia nimnim ac nga tia sruhi. Nga keoklana, ac nga pre ac asang ngunik nufon nu sin LEUM GOD ke mwe keok luk.
16 Do not take your servant to be a good-for-nothing woman: for my words have come from my stored-up sorrow and pain.
Nikmet nunku mu nga sie mutan koluk. Nga pre ke sripen nunak keok lun insiuk.”
17 Then Eli said to her, Go in peace: and may the God of Israel give you an answer to the prayer you have made to him.
Na Eli el fahk, “Som in misla, ac lela tuh God lun Israel Elan asot mwe siyuk lom an.”
18 And she said, May your servant have grace in your eyes. So the woman went away, and took part in the feast, and her face was no longer sad.
Ac Hannah el fahk, “Lela tuh kulang lom in ouinge nu sik pacl e nukewa.” Ouinge el som ac eis mwe mongo, ac el tia sifil toasr.
19 And early in the morning they got up, and after worshipping before the Lord they went back to Ramah, to their house: and Elkanah had connection with his wife; and the Lord kept her in mind.
Toangna in lotu tok ah Elkanah ac sou lal elos tukakek, ac tukun elos alu nu sin LEUM GOD, elos folokla nu lohm selos in acn Ramah. Elkanah el motul yorol Hannah, mutan kial, ac LEUM GOD El topuk pre lal Hannah.
20 Now the time came when Hannah, being with child, gave birth to a son; and she gave him the name Samuel, Because, she said, I made a prayer to the Lord for him.
Na Hannah el pitutuyak ac el oswela sie wen. Ac el sang inel Samuel, ac fahk, “Mweyen nga tuh siyuk sin LEUM GOD kacl.”
21 And the man Elkanah with all his family went up to make the year's offering to the Lord, and to give effect to his oath.
Ke sun pacl fal, Elkanah ac sou lal elos sifil som nu Shiloh in oru mwe kisa lal nu sin LEUM GOD oana ke el oru in yac nukewa, ac oayapa in kisakin ma el wulela kac.
22 But Hannah did not go, for she said to her husband, I will not go till the child has been taken from the breast, and then I will take him with me and put him before the Lord, where he may be for ever.
Tusruktu Hannah el tia wi som se ingan. El fahk nu sin mukul tumal, “Ke pacl se na ma tulik se inge liktitla, na nga fah usalla nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD, ac el ac fah mutana we in moul lal nufon.”
23 And her husband Elkanah said to her, Do whatever seems right to you, but not till you have taken him from the breast; only may the Lord do as he has said. So the woman, waiting there, gave her son milk till he was old enough to be taken from the breast.
Elkanah el fahk nu sel, “Oru oana kom nunku mu fal. Muta nwe ke kom liktitella tufah kom usalla. Ma se na, lela LEUM GOD Elan oru tuh kom in akpwayeye wulela lom.” Na Hannah el muta liyaung tulik sac nwe ke el liktitella.
24 Then when she had done so, she took him with her, with a three-year old ox and an ephah of meal and a skin full of wine, and took him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh: now the child was still very young.
Ke tulik sac liktitla, Hannah el usalla nu Shiloh, wi cow mukul yac tolu matwa, ac sie pak in flao, ac sie pak orekla ke kulun kosro sessesla ke wain. El usal Samuel ke el srakna fusr, ac som nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD in acn Shiloh.
25 And when they had made an offering of the ox, they took the child to Eli.
Ac ke elos uniya cow soko ah, elos usalla Samuel nu yorol Eli.
26 And she said, O my lord, as your soul is living, my lord, I am that woman who was making a prayer to the Lord here by your side:
Na Hannah el fahk nu sel Eli, “Leum se, ya kom esamyu? Nga pa mutan se kom tuh liye tu inse inge ac pre nu sin LEUM GOD.
27 My prayer was for this child; and the Lord has given him to me in answer to my request:
Nga tuh siyuk sel ke tulik se inge, na pa El ase ma nga siyuk sel.
28 So I have given him to the Lord; for all his life he is the Lord's. Then he gave the Lord worship there.
Ke ma inge nga kisakunulang nu sin LEUM GOD. El ac fah ma lun LEUM GOD in moul lal nufon.” Na elos alu nu sin LEUM GOD we.
