1 Samuel 1
1 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.
Ie henane zay, teo t’indaty e Ramataime-zofime, am-bohibohi’i Efraime ao atao Elkanà, ana’ Ierohame, ana’ i Elihò, ana’ i Tohò ana’ i Tsofe, nte-Efraime.
2 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.
Roe ty vali’e, ty añara’ ty raike, Khanà, ty añara’ty raike, Peninà; nanañ’ anake t’i Peninà, fe mbetsiterake t’i Khanà.
3 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.
Ie amy zay niavotse i rova’ey boa-taoñe indatiy nitalaho naho nisoroñe am’ Iehovà’ i Màroy e Silò añe. Mpisoroñe amy Iehovà henane zay t’i Kofený naho i Pinekase.
4 Then the day arrived, and Elkanah immolated. And he gave portions to his wife Peninnah, and to all her sons and daughters.
Ie tsatoke ty andro hanoen- tsoroñe le songa nanjotsoa’e t’i Peninà tañanjomba’e naho o ana-dahi’e naho anak’ ampela’e iabio;
5 But to Hannah he gave one portion with sorrow. For he loved Hannah, but the Lord had closed her womb.
tinolo’e anjara mañeva t’i Khanà, fa i Khanà ty nikokoa’e, fe kinape’ Iehovà ty hovi’e.
6 And her rival afflicted her and vehemently distressed her, to a great extent, for she rebuked her that the Lord had closed her womb.
Le nanolo-tsotry aze nainai’e i rafe’ey, nembere’e amy te nampikitihe’ Iehovà i hovi’ey.
7 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.
Aa le nitolom-panao izay an-taoñ’an-taon-dre, ie nionjomb’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày mb’eo, le nampisoañe’e avao; ie nirovetse, tsy nete nikama.
8 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?”
Aa le hoe t’i Elkanà vali’e ama’e, O Khanà, ino o iroveta’oo? akore te tsy mihinañe? ino ty mampalorè ty tro’o? tsy lombolombo’ ty ana-dahy folo ama’o v’irahoo?
9 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.
Aa ie fa nikama naho ninoñe e Silò ao iereo le niongake t’i Khanà, —ie amy zao niambesatse amy fiambesa’e an-tokonan-dalambein’ anjomba’ Iehovày t’i Elý mpisoroñe;
10 And since Hannah was bitter in soul, she prayed to the Lord, weeping greatly.
le nitalaho amy Iehovà an-kafairan’ arofo i rakembay vaho nangololoike ty rovetse.
11 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.”
Le nifanta an-titike ty hoe: O ry Iehovà’ i Màroy, naho toe ho vazoho’o ty fisotrian’ anak’ ampata’o toy, naho hahatiahy ahy, naho tsy handikofa’o o fetrek’oro’oo naho ho tolora’o ana-dahy ty mpitoro’o ampela, le hatoloko am’Iehovà ho amo hene andro hiveloma’eo vaho tsy hozaem-piharatse ty añambone’e.
12 Then it happened that, while she multiplied prayers before the Lord, Eli observed her mouth.
Aa ie nitolon-kalaly añatrefa’ Iehovà, le nioni’ i Elý i falie’ey.
13 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,
Nisaontsy añ’ arofo’e ao t’i Khanà, o fivimbi’eo avao ty nihetseke, le tsy nirey i fiarañanaña’ey; aa le natao’ i Elý t’ie nijike.
14 and so he said to her: “How long will you be inebriated? You should take only a little wine, but instead you are drenched.”
Le hoe t’i Elý tama’e, Ampara’ te ombia t’ihe ho màmo avao? adono añe o divai’oo.
15 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.
Nanoiñe aze ty Khanà, amy ty hoe: Aiy! ry talèko, ampela mioremèñe ‘no-ahoo; tsy mpinon-divay ndra tòake, fe nadoako añatrefa’ Iehovà ty troko.
16 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.”
Ko atao’o ho anam-Beliale ty anak’ ampata’o, fa ami’ty hamaro-toreoko naho amy fanaheloakoy ty nivolañeko.
17 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.”
Aa le nanoiñe aze t’i Elý ami’ty hoe, akia ampanintsiñañe, i Andrianañahare’ Israele ty hamale soa i nihalalia’oy.
18 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.
Aa le hoe re, Ehe te haharendre-pañisohañe am-pahaoniña’o o anak’ ampata’oo. Le niavotse i rakembay, nikama, vaho tsy nanahelo ka ty lahara’e.
19 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.
Nañampitso iereo te nitroatse naho nitalaho añatrefa’ Iehovà naho nimpoly mb’añ’anjomba’ iareo e Ramà añe; le nifañaoñe amy Khanà vali’e t’i Elkanà vaho nahatiahy aze t’Iehovà.
20 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.
Ie añe, tondroke te niareñe t’i Khanà, le nisamake ana-dahy vaho natao’e Samoele ty añara’e, Amy te nihalalieko amy Iehovà.
21 Now her husband Elkanah ascended with his entire house, so that he might immolate to the Lord a solemn sacrifice, with his vow.
Nitolom-pionjo hañenga i sorom-boa-taoñey naho hañava-pànta am’ Iehovà t’i Elkaná roandriañe rekets’ o añ’anjomba’eo.
22 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.”
Fe tsy nañavelo mb’eo t’i Kaná; hoe re amy vali’ey: Ie otàñe i ajajay, le hendeseko mb’eo, hiatrefa’e am’ Iehovà, vaho ao ty himoneña’e nainai’e.
23 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.
Aa le hoe t’i Elkanà, vali’e ama’e: Ano ze atao’o ho soa; Mahaliñisa ampara’ t’ie notàñe; hajado’ Iehovà abey i tsara’ey. Aa le nandrare tobok’ ao re nampinono i ana’ey, ampara’ te notae’e.
24 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.
Aa ie notàñe i ajajay le nendese’e mindre ama’e nionjoñe mb’eo, reketse ty bania telo ay, naho mahakama efà raike, vaho ty zonjòn-divay, le nendese’e mb’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà e Silò ao, mbe nitora’e i ajajay.
25 And they immolated a calf, and they presented the boy to Eli.
Ie linenta i baniay le nendeseñe amy Elý mb’eo i ajajay.
26 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.
Le hoe re: O talèkoo, kanao veloñ’ ain-drehe, ry talèko, izaho i ampela nijohañe marine azo etoa, nilolok’ amy Iehovày.
27 I prayed for this child, and the Lord granted to me my petition, which I asked of him.
Ty ajaja toy i nihalaliekoy; vaho natolo’ Iehovà amako i nihalaliakoy;
28 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:
aa le ingo fa hahereko am’ Iehovà, kanao velon-dre le a Iehovà. Aa le niambane añatrefa’ Iehovà re.
