1 Samuel 3
1 Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the Lord before Eli, and the word of the Lord was precious in those days; there was no manifest vision.
Yaron nan Sama’ila ya yi hidima a gaban Ubangiji a ƙarƙashin Eli. A waɗannan kwanaki kuwa jin magana daga wurin Ubangiji ba safai ba, babu kuma wahayi da yawa.
2 Then it happened that, on a certain day, Eli was lying in his place. And his eyes had dimmed, so that he was unable to see.
Wata rana da dare Eli da idanunsa sun kusa makancewa har ba ya iya gani sosai yana kwance a inda ya saba.
3 And so, to prevent the lamp of God from going out, Samuel was sleeping in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was.
Fitilar Allah kuwa tana ci, ba tă mutu ba tukuna, Sama’ila kuma na kwance a haikali na Ubangiji inda akwai akwatin Allah.
4 And the Lord called Samuel. And responding, he said, “Here I am.”
Sai Ubangiji ya kira Sama’ila. Sama’ila ya amsa ya ce, “Ga ni.”
5 And he ran to Eli, and he said, “Here I am. For you called me.” And he said: “I did not call. Return and sleep.” And he went away, and he slept.
Sai ya ruga wajen Eli ya ce, “Ga ni, gama ka kira ni.” Eli ya ce, “Ɗana ban kira ba, je ka kwanta”. Saboda haka ya tafi ya kwanta.
6 And again, the Lord continued to call to Samuel. And rising up, Samuel went to Eli, and he said: “Here I am. For you called me.” And he responded: “I did not call you, my son. Return and sleep.”
Ubangiji ya sāke kiransa ya ce, “Sama’ila!” Sama’ila ya tashi kuma ya je wurin Eli ya ce, “Ga ni, gama ka kira ni.” Amma Eli ya ce, “Ban kira ka ba, ɗana koma ka kwanta.”
7 Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, and the word of the Lord had not been revealed to him.
Sama’ila dai bai riga ya san Ubangiji ba tukuna. Ba a kuma taɓa bayyana maganar Ubangiji a gare shi ba tukuna ba.
8 And the Lord continued, and he called to Samuel still a third time. And rising up, he went to Eli.
Ubangiji ya kira Sama’ila sau na uku, Sama’ila kuma ya tashi ya tafi wurin Eli, “Ga ni, gama ka kira ni.” Sai Eli ya gane cewa Ubangiji ne ke kira yaron.
9 And he said: “Here I am. For you called me.” Then Eli understood that the Lord had called the boy. And he said to Samuel: “Go and sleep. And if he calls to you from now on, you will say, ‘Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.’” Therefore, Samuel went away, and he slept in his place.
Saboda haka, Eli ya gaya wa Sama’ila cewa, “Je ka kwanta, in kuma ya kira ka, ka ce masa, ‘Ya Ubangiji ka yi magana gama bawanka yana saurara.’” Sama’ila ya koma ya kwanta a wurin kwanciyarsa.
10 And the Lord came, and stood, and he called, just as he had called the other times, “Samuel, Samuel.” And Samuel said, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.”
Ubangiji kuma ya zo ya tsaya a wurin, yana kira ya ce, “Sama’ila, Sama’ila!” Kamar yadda ya kira a lokutan baya. Sai Sama’ila ya ce, “Yi magana gama bawanka yana saurara.”
11 And the Lord said to Samuel: “Behold, I am accomplishing a word in Israel. Whoever will hear about it, both his ears will ring.
Ubangiji ya ce wa Sama’ila, “Duba ina dab da yin wani abu a Isra’ila da zai sa kunne kowa da yake ji, yă ji tsoro.
12 In that day, I will raise up against Eli all the things that I have spoken over his house. I will begin, and I will finish.
A ranar zan cika dukan maganar da na yi game da Eli da iyalinsa, daga farko har ƙarshe.
13 For I have foretold to him that I will judge his house unto eternity, because of iniquity. For he had known that his sons acted shamefully, and he did not chastise them.
Gama na gaya masa zan hukunta gidansa har abada saboda zunubin da yake sane da shi;’ya’yansa sun wulaƙantar da kansu, shi kuma bai tsawata musu ba.
14 For this reason, I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of his house will not be expiated, with victims or with gifts, even forever.”
Saboda haka na rantse a kan gidan Eli, ‘Ba za a taɓa shafe laifin gidan Eli da hadaya ko baiko ba.’”
15 Then Samuel slept until morning, and he opened the doors of the house of the Lord. And Samuel was afraid to tell the vision to Eli.
Sama’ila kuwa ya kwanta har safe, sa’an nan ya buɗe ƙofofin gidan Ubangiji. Ya ji tsoro yă gaya wa Eli wahayin,
16 Then Eli called Samuel, and he said, “Samuel, my son?” And responding, he said, “I am here.”
amma Eli ya kira shi ya ce, “Sama’ila, ɗana.” Sama’ila ya ce, “Ga ni.”
17 And he questioned him: “What is the word that the Lord has spoken to you? I beg you that you may not conceal it from me. May God do these things to you, and may he add these other things, if you hide from me one word out of all the things that were told to you.”
Eli ya ce, mene ne ya ce maka? Kada ka ɓoye mini. Allah ya yi da kai har ma fiye in ka ɓoye mini kome da ya ce maka.
18 And so, Samuel revealed to him all the words, and he did not hide them from him. And he responded: “He is the Lord. May he do what is good in his own eyes.”
Don haka sai Sama’ila ya gaya masa kome bai ɓoye masa kome ba. Sa’an nan Eli ya ce, “Shi ne Ubangiji bari yă yi abin da ya yi kyau a gare shi.”
19 And Samuel grew up, and the Lord was with him, and not one of his words fell to the ground.
Ubangiji kuwa yana tare da Sama’ila har girmansa bai kuma bar ko ɗaya daga maganarsa ta kāsa cika ba.
20 And all of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, knew Samuel to be a faithful prophet of the Lord.
Dukan Isra’ila daga Dan har Beyersheba suka shaida amincin Sama’ila annabi ne na Ubangiji.
21 And the Lord continued to appear in Shiloh. For the Lord had revealed himself to Samuel at Shiloh, according to the word of the Lord. And the word about Samuel went forth to all of Israel.
Ubangiji kuwa ya dinga bayyana a Shilo, a nan ya bayyana kansa ga Sama’ila ta wurin maganarsa.
