1 Samuel 2
1 “My heart exults in the Lord, and my horn is exalted in my God. My mouth is enlarged over my enemies. For I have rejoiced in your salvation.
Hannah ni a ratoum e teh, BAWIPA dawk ka lunghawi poung. Ka ki hah BAWIPA ni a tawm toe. Nange Rungngangnae dawk ka lung ahawi teh ka tarannaw hmalah ka minhmai a pan.
2 Nothing is holy as the Lord is holy. For there is no other beside you. And nothing is strong as our God is strong.
BAWIPA a thoung e patetlah apihai thoung hoeh. Nang patetlah e awm hoeh. Kaimae Cathut patetlah kângue hane talung awm hoeh.
3 Do not continue speaking of great things, boasting. Let what is old depart from your mouth. For the Lord is the God of knowledge, and thoughts are prepared for him.
Hot patetlah e kâoupnae lawk dei hanh leih. Na pahni dawk hoi lunglennae lawk tâcawt hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA teh bangpueng ka panuek e Cathut lah ao teh, sak awh e pueng hah a khing.
4 The bow of the powerful has been overwhelmed, and the weak have been girded with strength.
Athakaawme taminaw e licung a kâkhoe teh a thakayounnaw thaonae a poe.
5 Those who before were filled, have hired themselves out for bread. And the starving have been filled, so that the barren have given birth to many. But she who had borne many sons has become unable.
A von kapahanaw ca hane kawi a hmu nahan a tawng awh teh, a von kahlamnaw vonhlam awh hoeh toe. Napui cakaroe e ni vai sari touh ca a khe toe. A ca moikapap ka khe e napui a tha a tâwn toe.
6 The Lord brings death, and he gives life. He leads away to death, and he brings back again. (Sheol h7585)
BAWIPA teh duesakthainae, hringsakthainae, phuen totouh duesaknae hoi thawsaknae kâ a tawn. (Sheol h7585)
7 The Lord impoverishes, and he enriches. He humbles, and he lifts up.
BAWIPA ni roedengsaknae, tawntasaknae, a pabo teh tawmthainae kâ a tawn.
8 He raises up the indigent from the dust, and he lifts up the poor from filth, so that they may sit with princes, and take hold of a throne of glory. For the hinges of the earth belong to the Lord, and he has placed the globe upon them.
A ma ni pabo e vaiphu dawk hoi a tawm teh, a tha kayoun e hraba dawk hoi a tawm teh, tami katawntanaw hoi rei tahungthainae bawilennae bawitungkhung a poe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, talai dupuinaw teh BAWIPA e lah ao. Hote adu pui dawk BAWIPA ni talaivan a kamtue sak.
9 He will preserve the feet of his holy ones, and the impious will be silenced in darkness. For no man will prevail by his own strength.
Ama ni a tami kathoungnaw e a khok a khetyawt han. Tamikathoutnaw teh a hmo thung dueng ao awh han. Ma e thasainae hoi apihai tâ mahoeh.
10 The adversaries of the Lord will dread him. And over them, he will thunder in the heavens. The Lord will judge the parts of the earth, and he will give dominion to his king, and he will lift up the horn of his Christ.”
BAWIPA ka taran e pueng reppasei lah a ta han. Kalvan hoi khoparit lawk hoi a tuk han. BAWIPA ni talai apout totouh lawk a ceng han. Ama e siangpahrang hah thasainae a poe han. Satui a awi e hah tawmdawm han telah a ti.
11 And Elkanah went away to Ramah, to his house. But the boy was a minister in the sight of the Lord, before the face of Eli, the priest.
Hathnukkhu hoi Elkanah teh Ramah kho e a im vah a pha. Hatei camo teh vaihma Eli koe BAWIPA e thaw a tawk.
12 But the sons of Eli were sons of Belial, not knowing the Lord,
Eli capanaw teh a rawk teh BAWIPA panuek a hoeh.
13 nor the priestly office for the people. And so, no matter who had immolated a victim, the servant of the priest would arrive, while the flesh was still cooking, and he would take a three-pronged hook in his hand,
Tamimaya koe vaihmanaw oangnae teh, thuengnae moi a thawng lahunnah, vaihma e a san buet touh hoi moi sonae sum kathum samphei e a sin teh a tho.
14 and put it into the vessel, or into the cauldron, or into the cooking pot, or into the pan, and all that the hook lifted up, the priest took for himself. So they did to all of Israel who arrived at Shiloh.
Ukkang thung thoseh, hlaam dawk thoseh, thawngnae hlaam dawk thoseh a cuek awh teh moi sonae sum kathum samphei hoi a rasa e moinaw hah vaihma ni ouk a la, hot patetlah hawvah ka tho e Isarel tami pueng koe Shiloh vah a sak awh.
15 In addition, before they burned the fat, the servant of the priest would arrive, and he would say to the one who was immolating: “Give me the flesh, so that I may boil it for the priest. For I will not accept cooked meat from you, but raw.”
Hatnavah, a thâw a karê hoehnahlan, vaihma san a tho teh thuengnae ka sak e koevah vaihma hanelah pahai e moi na poe haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang koe e thawng e moi lat mahoeh. Thawng hoeh e doeh a ngai telah a dei.
16 And the one who was immolating would say to him, “First, allow the fat to be burned today, according to custom, and then take for yourself whatever your soul desires.” But in response, he would say to him: “By no means. For you will give it to me now, otherwise I will take it by force.”
Ahni koevah ahrei hah hmaloe karê seh, hat hnukkhu vah na ngai yit touh na la han atipouh navah, ahni ni na hoeh bo atu roeroe na poe. Na poe hoehpawiteh, beng na lawp han ouk atipouh.
17 Therefore, the sin of the servants was exceedingly great before the Lord. For they drew men away from the sacrifice of the Lord.
Hatdawkvah, vaihma thoundounnaw teh a yonnae BAWIPA mithmu vah a lenpoung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA e thuengnae noutna hoeh e lah a hno awh toe.
18 But Samuel was ministering before the face of the Lord; he was a youth girded with a linen ephod.
Camo Samuel teh vaihma e angkidung a khohna teh BAWIPA hmalah thaw a tawk.
19 And his mother fashioned a little tunic for him, which she brought to him on the appointed days, ascending with her husband, so that he might immolate the solemn sacrifice.
Hothloilah, angkidung a manu ni a khui pouh teh, kumtangkuem thuengnae poe hanelah a vâ hoi a tho navah ouk a sin pouh.
20 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife. And he said to him, “May the Lord repay to you offspring from this woman, on behalf of the loan that you offered to the Lord.” And they went away to their own place.
Eli ni Elkanah hoi a yu teh yawhawi a poe teh, BAWIPA hanelah hno na poe e heh hete napui hno lahoi BAWIPA ni na patho naseh telah atipouh. Hottelah hoiyah im lah a ban awh.
21 Then the Lord visited Hannah, and she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters. And the youth Samuel was magnified with the Lord.
BAWIPA ni Hannah teh a khetyawt teh camo a vawn teh ca tongpa kathum napui kahni touh a khe. Camo Samuel hai BAWIPA hmalah a roung.
22 Now Eli was very old, and he heard all that his sons were doing to all of Israel, and how they were sleeping with the women who were waiting at the door of the tabernacle.
Eli teh a matawng poung toe. Isarel pueng koe a canaw ni a sakyoe e pueng hoi kamkhuengnae lukkareiim takhang koe kamkhueng e napuinaw a ikhainae kong a thai a teh,
23 And he said to them: “Why are you doing these kinds of things, very wicked things, that I have heard from all the people?
Ahnimouh koe bang kecu dawk maw het patetlah e hno hah na sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hetnaw koehoi e na sak awh e hnokahawi hoeh e kong hah ka thai.
24 My sons, do not be willing. For it is no good report that I am hearing, so that you would cause the people of the Lord to transgress.
Hawi hoeh ka canaw, BAWIPA e taminaw ni a dei awh e kamthang teh kamthang kahawi nahoeh. BAWIPA e taminaw lawk na ek sak.
25 If a man has sinned against a man, God may be able to be appeased over him. But if a man has sinned against the Lord, who will pray for him?” But they did not listen to the voice of their father, that the Lord was willing to kill them.
Tami reira hah Tami buet touh ni yonnae sak pawiteh, ahni teh, lawkcengkung ni lawk a ceng han. Tami buet touh ni BAWIPA dawk yon pawiteh, apinimaw a kâhei pouh han telah ati. Hatei a na pa e lawk ngai laipalah a onae teh BAWIPA ni thei han a ngai dawk doeh.
26 But the youth Samuel advanced, and grew up, and he was pleasing to the Lord, as well as to men.
Camo Samuel teh a roung takhang teh Cathut hoi tami e lungngai lah ao.
27 Then a man of God went to Eli, and he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Was I not revealed openly to the house of your father, when they were in Egypt in the house of Pharaoh?
BAWIPA e tami buet touh Eli koe a tho teh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Izip ram Faro im ao awh navah na pa e na catoun koe kamcengcalah ka kamnue nahoehmaw.
28 And I chose him out of all the tribes of Israel for myself as priest, so that he might ascend to my altar, and burn incense to me, and wear the ephod before me. And I gave to the house of your father all the sacrifices of the sons of Israel.
Ka thuengnae khoungroe koe cei hane hmuitui sawi hane, ka hmalah vaihma angki kho hane, Isarel miphun dawk hoi ahni teh ka rawi e lah awm hoeh namaw Isarel miphunnaw e hmaisawi thuengnae hai na pa e miphun koe kai ni ka poe.
29 Why have you kicked away my victims and my gifts, which I instructed to be offered in the temple? And why have you given more honor to your sons than to me, so that you eat the first-fruits of every sacrifice of my people Israel?
Ka im dawk, kâ na poe e thuengnae hnonaw bangkong na khok hoi na coungroe awh. Kai hlak vah na capanaw na barihnawn, nama na kâthaw saknae dawk ka tami Isarelnaw ni thuengnae kahawi kahawi e na hno, telah a ti.
30 Because of this, the Lord God of Israel says: I have spoken clearly, so that your house, and the house of your father, may minister in my sight, even forever. But now the Lord says: May this be far from me. Instead, whoever will have glorified me, I will glorify him. But whoever despises me, they will be despised.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA Isarelnaw e Cathut ni kai ni na imthung hoi na pa imthung hah, a yungyoe ka hmalah ka thaw na tawk awh han telah kai ni na dei pouh ei, sahnin BAWIPA ni a dei e teh ka lawkkam teh kai hoi hlat naseh. Kai ka tawm e naw teh, kai ni ka tawm van han, kai bang lah ka noutna hoeh e naw teh bang lah ka noutna van mahoeh.
31 Behold the days are arriving, when I will cut off your arm, and the arm of the house of your father, so that there will not be an old man in your house.
Na imthung dawk matawng ka phat hoeh lah na kut hoi na miphun e a kut hah a tâtuengnae tueng a pha han.
32 And you will see your rival in the temple, amid all the prosperity of Israel. And there will not be an old man in your house for all days.
Ka im dawk e a rucatnae nang ni na hmu han. Isarel miphun lathueng kahawi hno ka sak e pueng kai ni ka poe nakunghai nange miphun dawk nâtuek hai a kum kacue matawng ka phat sak mahoeh.
33 Yet truly, I will not entirely take away a man of you from my altar, but such that your eyes may fail, and your soul may melt away, and a great part of your house may die out, as it pertains to the state of men.
Kaie thuengnae khoungroe dawk hoi ka raphoe hoeh e nange miphun teh na mit a ro vaiteh, lungthin kamathoesakkung lah ka o sak han. Na catounnaw ni a thoundoun lahun nah a due han.
34 But this will be a sign to you, which will happen to your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas: on one day they both will die.
Na ca roi hnin touh dawk rei a due roi han. Hethateh na ca Hophni hoi Phinehas dawk ka phat hane hno doeh.
35 And I will raise up for myself a faithful priest, who will act in accord with my heart and my soul. And I will build a faithful house for him. And he will walk before my Christ for all days.
Yuemkamcu vaihma ka lungthin hoi ka pouknae dawk kaawm e ka sak e tami hah ka kangdue sak han. Kacakpounge imthung lah ka kangdue sak vaiteh a yungyoe hoi satui ka awi e hmalah ao han.
36 Then this will be in the future, that whoever will have remained of your house, he will approach so that he may pray on his behalf. And he will offer a coin of silver, and a twist of bread. And he will say: ‘Permit me, I beg you, one part of the priestly office, so that I may eat a mouthful of bread.’”
Na im vah ka cawi rae pueng tangka hoi vaiyei a hei lahoi a cei awh han. A hmalah tabut awh vaiteh, vaiyei youn touh ka ca hanelah ka hmu thai nahan, pahren lahoi vaihma thaw na tawk sak yawkaw ati awh han telah a ti.
