< 1 Samuel 2 >

1 And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in Yhwh, mine horn is exalted in Yhwh: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.
Nitalaho t’i Khanà, ami‘ty hoe: Mirebek’ am’ Iehovà ty troko, mionjoñe am’ Iehovà ty tsifako; misokak’ amo rafelahikoo ty vavako; le jejoeko ty fandrombahañe ahy.
2 There is none holy as Yhwh: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
Leo raike tsy masiñe manahak’ Iehovà toe tsy ie naho ts’ Ihe; vaho tsy eo ty lamilamy hambañe aman’ Añaharen-tika.
3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for Yhwh is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
Ko mivolam-pirengevohañe avao; ko metea’o hiakatse am-palie’o ty fitoeborañe; amy te Andrianañahare mahilala t’Iehovà; ama’e ty andanjàñe o satao.
4 The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
Nipozake ty fale’ o fanalolahio, le nampiombeañe haozarañe o nikoletrao.
5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.
Nikarama hahazoa’e mofo o nivontsiñeo; anjañe ka o nilingoao; nisamake fito ty betsiterake, vaho ninìke i nimaro anakey.
6 Yhwh killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. (Sheol h7585)
Mamono t’Iehovà, mbore mameloñe; manjotso mb’an-tsikeokeok’ ao, vaho mañakatse boak’ao. (Sheol h7585)
7 Yhwh maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
Maha poi’e t’Iehovà naho mampañaleale; mamotsake vaho mañonjoñe.
8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are Yhwh's, and he hath set the world upon them.
Atroa’e boak’ an-debok’ ao o poie’eo, naho ongaha’e boak’am-porompots’ ao ty rarake, hampiambesare’e amo roandriañeo, handova’e i fiambesan-engeñey; Iehovà ro faha-ty voatse toy, vaho najado’e ama’e ty tane toy.
9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
Hambena’e ty fandia’ o masi’eo, fe hampitsiñeñe añ’ieñ’ ao o lo-tserekeo; fa tsy haozarañe ty handreketa’ ondatio.
10 The adversaries of Yhwh shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: Yhwh shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
Ho demodemoheñe o mifandietse amy Iehovào; hangotroha’e boak’ an-dikerañe ao; ho zakae’ Iehovà o olon-taneo; le hampaozare’e i mpanjaka’ey, vaho haonjo’e ty tsifa’ i noriza’ey.
11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto Yhwh before Eli the priest.
Aa le nimpoly mb’añ’anjomba’e mb’e Ramà mb’eo t’i Elkanà; vaho nitoroñe Iehovà añatrefa’ i Elý mpisoroñe i ajajay.
12 Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not Yhwh.
Ondaty tsi-vokatse i ana-dahi’ i Ely rey, tsy nahafohiñe Iehovà.
13 And the priests’ custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;
Inao ty sata’ i mpisoroñe rey am’ ondatio: Naho mañenga soroñe t’indaty, ie mbe mandeve i henay, le mb’eo ty mpitoro’ i mpisoroñe rey reketse fitsovohan-kena telo fitsipoke am-pità’e;
14 And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.
vaho atsovo’e ke an-kitra ao, ke añ’ana-kalañe, ke am-balàñe, hera an-tsajoa; le ze akare’ i fitsovohan-kenay ty endese’ i mpisoroñey ho aze. Nanoe’ iareo amy ze hene ana’ Israele niheo mb’e Silò mb’eo Izay.
15 Also before they burnt the fat, the priest’s servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.
Eka, ie mbe tsy nahatoeñe i solikey le nimb’eo ty mpitoro’ i mpisoroñey nanao ty hoe amy ‘ndaty nanao soroñey: Anoloro hena hatono’ay ho a i mpisoroñey; fa tsy ho no’e ama’o ty hena nahandroeñe; i mantay ty paiae’e.
16 And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, Nay; but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
Aa naho nanoa’ indatiy ty hoe: Angao hahatoeñe hey o henao, vaho alao ze satrin’ arofo’o; le nanoa’e ty hoe: Aiy! atoloro ahy hey tsy mone ho tavaneko.
17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before Yhwh: for men abhorred the offering of Yhwh.
Toe jabajaba añatrefa’ Iehovà ty hakeo’ i ajalahy rey; amy te nimavoe’ iareo o engaeñe amy Iehovào.
18 But Samuel ministered before Yhwh, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
Ie amy zao nitoroñe añatrefa’ Iehovà t’i Samoele, an-kitambe leny, ie mb’e ajaja.
19 Moreover his mother made him a little coat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
Le zinain-drene’e ho aze ty saroñe kedekedeke vaho natolo’e aze boa-taoñe amy lia’e mb’eo mindre amy vali’e mpañenga sorom-boa-taoñey.
20 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Yhwh give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to Yhwh. And they went unto their own home.
Nitatae’ i Elý t’i Elkanà naho i tañanjomba’ey ami’ty hoe: Hatolo’ Iehovà ama’o abey añami’ty rakemba toy ty tiry hisolo i nihalaliañe am’ Iehovày. Le nimpoly mb’añ’ anjomba’ iareo mb’eo.
21 And Yhwh visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before Yhwh.
Aa le nahatiahy i Khanà t’Iehovà, le niaren-dre, vaho nahasamak’ ana-dahy telo naho anak’ampela roe. Nitombo añatrefa’ Iehovà t’i Samoele.
22 Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Nigain-kantetse t’i Elý; naho jinanji’e iaby o sata’ i ana’e rey amy Israeleo, naho t’ie nifandia tihy amo rakemba mpitoroñe an-dalan-kivohom-pamantañañeo.
23 And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
Le nanoe’e ty hoe: Ino ty anoe’ areo ze o raha zao? Raty ty italilia’ ondaty iabio.
24 Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: ye make Yhwh's people to transgress.
Tsy mete izay, ry anako; toe tsy soa ty talily tsanoñeko te ampandilare’ areo ondati’ Iehovào.
25 If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against Yhwh, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because Yhwh would slay them.
Naho aman-kakeo ama’ ondaty t’indaty, le ho zakaem-pizaka; fe naho aman-tahiñe am’Iehovà t’indaty, ia ty hañalañalañe ho aze? Fe tsy hinao’ iareo ty fiarañanañan-drae’ iareo, fa toe satri’ Iehovà t’ie hampihomaheñe.
26 And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with Yhwh, and also with men.
Mbe nitombo eri­ke t’i Samoele ajajay, nionjoñe am-pañisoha’ Iehovà vaho am’ondatio.
27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith Yhwh, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh’s house?
Nomb’amy Elý amy zao ty ondatin’ Añahare, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Tsy niboake malange añ’anjomban-droae’o hao iraho, ie te Mitsraime añe añatrefan’ anjomba’ i Parò?
28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
Tsy jinoboko amo hene’ fifokoa’ Israeleo hao re ho mpisoroko, hionjoñe mb’ amy kitrelikoy mb’eo hañemboke naho hisikiñe kitambe añatrefako? Mbore fonga natoloko aman’ anjomban-drae’o o nengae’ o ana’ Israeleo horoañe añ’ afoo?
29 Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
Ino arè ty itimpaha’ areo o fisoroñañe ahikoo naho o engaeñe amakoo, o nandiliako hanoeñe amy fimoneñakoio, vaho iasia’o ambone ahy o ana’oo, amondraha’ areo sandriñe amy ze hene voli-hena engae’ ondatiko Israeleo?
30 Wherefore Yhwh God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now Yhwh saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele: Toe vinolako i anjomba’oy, naho i anjomban-droae’oy, ty hañavelo añatrefako eo nainai’e; fa hoe ka t’Iehovà henane zao: ho lavitse amako izay; hiasiako ze miasy ahy, le tsy honjoneko ze manirìka ahy.
31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father’s house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.
Inao! ho tondroke ty andro, te haitoako ama’o ty fita’o havana, naho ty fitàn’ anjomban-drae’o le tsy ho ama’ ondaty antetse ka ty añ’anjomba’o ao.
32 And thou shalt see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.
Haha­isake rafelahy an-kibohoko ao irehe, amy ze hene hasoa hanoe’e am’Israele; ihe tsy ho ama’ ondaty bey añ’anjomba’o ao kitro-katroke.
33 And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of their age.
Toe tsy hene haitoako amy kitrelikoy o ondati’oo, fa ho nampilesa ty fihaino’o naho hampioremeñeñe ty arofo’o fe fonga hihomake o tirin’ anjomba’oo t’ie mbe ajalahy.
34 And this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.
Aa zao ty ho viloñe ama’o: Hifetsak’ amy ana-dahi’o roe rey, amy Kofný naho i Pinekàse, te toe hitrao-pivetrak’ ami’ty andro raike—ie roe.
35 And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed for ever.
Fe hatroako ty mpisoroñe migahiñe, ie ty hañeneke ze an-troko naho am-pitsakoreako; le handranjiako anjom­ba fatratse vaho hitoroñe añatrefa’ i norizakoy nainai’e re.
36 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thine house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests’ offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
Ie amy zao, songa homb’eo ze sehanga’e añ’akiba’o ao, hidrakadrakak’ ama’e hahazoa’e ty volafoty naho ty vonga-mofo ami’ty hoe: ehe gineo hitoloñeko ho mpisoroñe hihinanako mofo pilipito’e.
