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.
Nitoroñe Iehovà ambane’ i Elý eo t’i Samoele ajaja. Tsy siake nampiboake tsara t’Iehovà henane zay; tsy nahaoniñañ’ aroñaroñe.
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—
Aa teo te indraike haleñe, naho nàndre añ’efe’e ao t’i Elý, ie niha-fè o fihaino’eo tsy nahaisake soa;
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,
mboe tsy nakipeke ty failo an-kivohon’ Añahare ao te niroro añ’anjomba’ Iehovà t’i Samoele amy toe’ i vatam-pañinan’ Añahareiy.
4 that the LORD called Samuel; and he said: 'Here am I.'
Aa le kinanji’ Iehovà t’i Samoele, Intoy iraho, hoe re.
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.
Nivotivoty mb’amy Elý mb’eo re nanao ty hoe: Intoy iraho, amy te kinanji’o. Tsy nitok’ azo iraho, hoe t’i Elý, Mandrea indraike. Aa le nibalike re, nàndre.
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.'
Kinanji’ Iehovà indraike t’i Samoele; le nitroatse t’i Samoele, nimb’ amy Elý mb’eo nanao ty hoe: Intoy iraho, amy kanji’oy. Tsy tinokako irehe, anako, hoe re, Akia mandrea.
7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him.
Nialik’ amy Samoele t’Iehovà, amy te mboe tsy nabentatse ama’e ty tsara’ Iehovà.
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.
Kinanji’ Iehovà fañintelo’e t’i Samoele. Nitroatse t’i Samoele, nimb’amy Elý mb’eo, nanao ty hoe: Intoy iraho, fa kinanji’o. Nifohi’ i Elý amy zao te Iehovà ty nikanjy i ajalahiy.
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.
Akia, mandrea, hoe ty asa’ i Elý amy Samoele, Ie mikanjy azo, anò ty hoe: Mitsarà ry Iehovà, fa itsanoña’ ty mpitoro’o. Aa le nimb’eo t’i Samoele nàndre an-traño’e ao.
10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times: 'Samuel, Samuel.' Then Samuel said: 'Speak; for Thy servant heareth.'
Nimb’eo amy zao t’Iehovà nijohañe eo, nikanjy amy hoe rezay: Samoele, Samoele! le hoe t’i Samoele, Mitsarà fa mitsanoñe o mpitoro’oo.
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.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Samoele: Hampijadoñeko tsara e Israele ao hampiñiñiñiñe ty ravembia roe’ ze mahajanjiñe aze.
12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even unto the end.
Amy andro zay, le hafetsako amy Elý naho amy hasavereña’e iabiy i vinolakoy sikal’am-baloha’e pak’am-para’e.
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.
Fa vinolako ama’e te hametsahako zaka i añanjomba’ey, amy te napota’e ty hakeon’ ana’e—ie namà-batañe—f’ie tsy nimane hampijihetse iareo.
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.'
Izay ty nifantàko amy hasavereña’ i Elìy, t’ie: Ndra enga ino ndra soroñ’ ino tsy hahajebañe o tahiñe anoe’ ty hasavereña’ i Elio.
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.
Nàndre am-pandrea’e ao avao t’i Samoele am-para’ te maraiñe, vaho sinoka’e o lalam-bein’ anjomba’ Iehovào. F’ie nihemban-dre tsy te hitalily amy Elý i aroñaroñey.
16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said: 'Samuel, my son.' And he said: 'Here am I.'
Aa le kinanji’ i Elý t’i Samoele: O Samoele, anako! hoe re, Intoy iraho, hoe ty natoi’e.
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.'
Ino ty tsinara’e ama’o? hoe re. Ehe, ko añetaha’o amako. Ee te hanoen’ Añahare ama’o naho mandikoatse, naho akafi’o amako ndra inoñ’ inoñ’ amo tsinara’e ama’oo.
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.'
Aa le natalili’ i Samoele ama’e ze hene nitsaraeñe, tsy eo ty naeta’e; le hoe t’i Elý: Ie Iehovà! Ehe te hanoe’e ze soa am-pihaino’e.
19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.
Nitombo t’i Samoele, le tama’e t’Iehovà vaho leo raike amo tsara’eo tsy napo’e an-tane.
20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.
Songa nifohi’ Israele boake Dane pake Be’er-sevà añe te mpitoky noriza’ Iehovà t’i Samoele.
21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh; for the LORD revealed Himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
Nitolom-piboake e Silò ao t’Iehovà le niatreke i Samoele e Silò t’Iehovà, ty amy tsara’ Iehovày.
