1 Samuel 3

1 And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no frequent vision.

Wuowino miluongo ni Samuel ne tiyo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye e bwo Eli. E kindeno wach Jehova Nyasaye ne nok kendo ne onge fweny mangʼeny.

2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place — now his eyes had begun to wax dim, that he could not see—

Eli makoro wengene ne osechako imore kendo ne ok onyal neno maber, noyudo nindo e kare mapile.

3 and the lamp of God was not yet gone out, and Samuel was laid down to sleep in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was,

To taya mar Nyasaye ne pok otho, Samuel bende ne nindo ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kama Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye ne nitie.

4 that the LORD called Samuel; and he said: 'Here am I.'

Eka Jehova Nyasaye noluongo Samuel. Samuel nodwoko niya, “Era ee.”

5 And he ran unto Eli, and said: 'Here am I; for thou didst call me.' And he said: 'I called not; lie down again.' And he went and lay down.

Eka noringo odhi ir Eli mowacho niya, “Era ee; nikech ne iluonga.” To Eli nowachone niya, “Ne ok aluongi dog inindi.” Omiyo nodok monindo.

6 And the LORD called yet again Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said: 'Here am I; for thou didst call me.' And he answered: 'I called not, my son; lie down again.'

Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nochako oluongo niya, “Samuel!” Eka Samuel nochungʼ modhi ir Eli mowachone niya, “Era ee, nikech ne iluonga.” Eli nowachone niya, “Wuoda, an ne ok aluongi dog inindi.”

7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him.

E kindeno Samuel ne pod ok ongʼeyo Jehova Nyasaye nikech wach Jehova Nyasaye ne pok ofwenyorene.

8 And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said: 'Here am I; for thou didst call me.' And Eli perceived that the LORD was calling the child.

Jehova Nyasaye ne ochako oluongo Samuel mar adek kendo Samuel noa malo modhi ir Eli mowachone niya, “Era ee nikech iluonga.” Eka Eli nofwenyo ni kara Jehova Nyasaye ema, luongo wuowino.

9 Therefore Eli said unto Samuel: 'Go, lie down; and it shall be, if thou be called, that thou shalt say: Speak, LORD; for Thy servant heareth.' So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

Omiyo Eli nowacho ni Samuel niya, “Dhiyo inindi, to ka oluongi to iwach ni, ‘Wuo Jehova Nyasaye, nikech jatichni winjo.’” Samuel ne odok monindo kare.

10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times: 'Samuel, Samuel.' Then Samuel said: 'Speak; for Thy servant heareth.'

Jehova Nyasaye nobiro mochungʼ kanyo moluongo kaka nosebedo kotimo, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel nowachone niya, “Wuo nikech jatichni winjo.”

11 And the LORD said to Samuel: 'Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle.

Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Samuel niya, “Ne adhi timo gimoro e Israel mabiro miyo ji duto mowinjo itgi nosakni.

12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even unto the end.

E kindeno abiro chopo weche mane awacho kuom Eli ka akwede kod mane awacho kuom ode aa chakruok nyaka giko.

13 For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever, for the iniquity, in that he knew that his sons did bring a curse upon themselves, and he rebuked them not.

Nimar ne anyise ni abiro ngʼado bura ne joode nyaka chiengʼ nikech richono mane ongʼeyo, yawuote ne timo timbe maricho, to ne ok okwerogi.

14 And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be expiated with sacrifice nor offering for ever.'

Emomiyo nasingora ne dhood Eli ni, ‘Richogi ok nyal pwodh gi misango kata chiwo.’”

15 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to tell Eli the vision.

Samuel nonindo nyaka okinyi eka noyawo dhoudi mag od Jehova Nyasaye. Noluor wacho ne Eli fweny,

16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said: 'Samuel, my son.' And he said: 'Here am I.'

to Eli noluonge mowachone niya, “Samuel wuoda.” Samuel nodwoke niya, “Era ee.”

17 And he said: 'What is the thing that He hath spoken unto thee? I pray thee, hide it not from me, God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide any thing from me of all the things that He spoke unto thee.'

Eli nopenje niya, “En angʼo mane owachoni? Kik ipanda wach. Mad Nyasaye chwadi matek ka dipo ni ipandona gimoro amora ma onyisi.”

18 And Samuel told him all the words, and hid nothing from him. And he said: 'It is the LORD; let Him do what seemeth Him good.'

Omiyo Samuel nonyise weche duto ma ok opandone gimoro. Eka Eli nowachone niya, “En e Jehova Nyasaye, we otim gima oneno ni longʼone.”

19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.

Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Samuel kaka nomedo dongo kendo weche duto mane owacho onge mane kadho ma ok otimore kamano.

20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.

Jo-Israel duto koa Dan nyaka Bersheba, nofwenyo ni Samuel oseromo bedo janabi mar Jehova Nyasaye.

21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh; for the LORD revealed Himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.

Jehova Nyasaye nomedo fwenyore e Shilo kendo kanyo ne ofwenyore owuon ne Samuel kuom wachne.
