1 Samuel 2
1 And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the LORD, mine horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.
Eka Hana nolemo kawacho niya, “Chunya oil gi Jehova Nyasaye; Jehova Nyasaye osetingʼa malo ma tekona onenore. Gi dhoga asungora ne wasika, nikech amor gi warruokni.
2 [There is] none holy as the LORD: for [there is] none beside thee: neither [is there] any rock like our God.
“Onge ngʼama ler ka Jehova Nyasaye; kendo onge moro makmana in; onge Lwanda machal gi Nyasachwa.
3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let [not] arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD [is] a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
“Weuru siko ka uwuoyo gi sunga ahinya, kata weyo dhogi wuoyo gi ngʼayi, nikech Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye mongʼeyo nimar en ema onono timbe.
4 The bows of the mighty men [are] broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
“Atunge mag jolweny osetur, to jogo mayom yom osemi teko.
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.
Jogo mane nigo koro tiyo mondo oyud chiemo, to jogo mane denyo koro kegi orumo. Mano mane migumba osenywolo nyithindo abiriyo to mano mane nigi yawuowi to koro odongʼ nono.
“Jehova Nyasaye ema kelo tho, kendo chiwo ngima; en ema onego kendo ochiero. (Sheol h7585)
7 The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
Jehova Nyasaye ema kelo dhier gi mwandu, josunga odwoko piny, to joma muol otingʼo malo.
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] the LORD’s, and he hath set the world upon them.
Otingʼo jachan malo kogolo e buru kendo otingʼo ngʼama odhier malo kogolo e ipidh yugi; omiyo gibedo kaachiel gi yawuot ruodhi bende omiyo gibedoe kombe moyiedhi. “Nimar mise mag piny gin mag Jehova Nyasaye, kanyo ema oserenjoe piny ngima.
9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
Obiro chiko tiende joge maler to joricho to nolal ei mudho. “Ngʼato ok lochi mana nikech teko;
10 The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
joma piem gi Jehova Nyasaye ibiro tur matindo tindo. Obiro mornegi gie polo; kendo Jehova Nyasaye biro ngʼado bura ne tunge piny. “Obiro miyo ruodhe teko kendo obiro miyo teko mar ngʼate mowir onenre.”
11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest.
Eka Elkana nodok dalane Rama to wuowino noweyo katiyo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye e bwo Eli jadolo.
12 Now the sons of Eli [were] sons of Belial; they knew not the LORD.
Yawuot Eli ne timbegi mono kendo ne ok gidew Jehova Nyasaye.
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;
Koro ma e tim mane jodolo timo ne ji kane ngʼato angʼata ne chiwo misango, kendo kane pod ringʼo chiek, to jatij jadolo ne biroga gi uma mabor man-gi leke adek e lwete.
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.
Nolutoga umano e sufuria, kata aguch ringʼo gi agulni mamoko mag tedo kendo jadolo ne kawo ringʼo moro amora ma uma ochwoyo. Mano e kaka negitimo ni jo-Israel duto mane biro Shilo.
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.
To kata ka boche ne pok owangʼ, jatich jadolo ne biroga ma wach ne ngʼama chiwo misango niya, “Mi jadolo ringʼo moko mondo obul nikech ok obi yie kawo ringʼo mosetedi kuomi makmana manumu.”
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.
To ka ngʼatno nowachone niya, “We mondo boche okuong owangʼ mondi eka ikaw gimoro amora midwaro,” to jatijno nedwoko niya, “Ngangʼ miyago sani; ka ok imiyago, to abiro kawe githuon.”
17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.
Richo mag yawuowigi ne lich ahinya e nyim Jehova Nyasaye nikech ne gichayo gima ochiw ne Jehova Nyasaye.
18 But Samuel ministered before the LORD, [being] a child, girded with a linen ephod.
Samuel to ne tiyo, e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ka en wuowi matin korwako law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod.
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.
Higa ka higa min ne twangʼone law matin kendo terone e kinde mane ojadhi gi chwore ka gidhi timo misango mar higa ka higa.
20 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD. And they went unto their own home.
Eli negwedho Elkana gi chiege kowacho niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye miyi nyithindo gi dhakoni mondo ochul kar mane olamo kokwayo kendo omiyo Jehova Nyasaye.” Bangʼe negidok dalagi.
21 And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.
To Jehova Nyasaye ne mor gi Hana; kendo nomako ich monywolo yawuowi adek gi nyiri ariyo. To Samuel nodongo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
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.
Koro Eli mane oseti ahinya; nowinjo timbe duto mane yawuote timo ne jo-Israel kaka negiterore gi mon mane tiyo e dhoranga Hemb Romo.
23 And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
Nowachonegi niya, “Angʼo momiyo utimo timbegi? Awinjo kuom ji duto timbeu marichogi.
24 Nay, my sons; for [it is] no good report that I hear: ye make the LORD’s people to transgress.
Ooyo yawuota; ok en huma maber ma awinjo kalandore e kind oganda Jehova Nyasaye.
25 If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the LORD would slay them.
Ka ngʼato okethone ngʼat machielo to Nyasaye nyalo thegogi; to ka koro ngʼato oketho ne Jehova Nyasaye, en ngʼa mabiro kwayone?” Kata kamano yawuotego ne ok owinjo siem wuon-gi nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne osechano mondo oneg-gi.
26 And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.
To wuowi Samuel nomedo dongo; kendo Jehova Nyasaye kod ji ne mor kode.
27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh’s house?
Ngʼat Nyasaye moro nobiro ir Eli mowachone niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho, ‘Donge ne afwenyora ratiro ni od wuonu kane pod gin Misri e bwo loch Farao?
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?
Nayiero wuonu e kind dhout Israel mondo obed jadolona mondo oidh malo e kendona mar misango, mondo owangʼ ubani, kendo orwak law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod e nyima. Ne achako amiyo od wuonu misengini duto ma jo-Israel wangʼo gi mach.
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?
Angʼo momiyo ichayo misangona kod chiwo ma asechiwoni kar dakna? Angʼo momiyo imiyo yawuoti duongʼ moloya ka uchiemo kendo ubedo machwe un uwegi kendo ka uyiero kuonde mabeyoe moloyo kuom chiwo ka chiwo ma joga Israel chiwo?’
30 Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed [that] thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
“Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel wacho ni, ‘Ne asingora ni odi kod od wuonu nobed jotichna nyaka chiengʼ.’ To koro Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Ma ok anatim! Joma miya duongʼ ema abiro miyo duongʼ, to joma ochaya ok nobed gimoro.
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.
Ndalo biro ma anatiekie tekoni kod teko mar od wuonu, mi ok noyudi ngʼato angʼata moti e dhoodu.
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.
Kendo inibed gi chandruok e kar dakna kata obedo ni jo-Israel none ber to ei anywolani to onge ngʼat manodag amingʼa mabed moti.
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.
Ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu ma ok agolo e tich mar kendona mar misango anawe mondo omi wengeu opongʼ gi pi wangʼ kendo mondo omi chunyu lit, to ogandani duto to notho kapod gin jomatindo.
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.
“‘To gima timore ne yawuoti ariyo ma gin Hofni gi Finehas nobedni ranyisi kendo gibiro tho odiechiengʼ achiel.
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.
To abiro chungo Jadolona awuon ma en ngʼat ma ja-adiera, manotim gik moko duto man e chunya kod pacha. Abiro guro ode matek, kendo obiro tiyo ndalo duto e nyim ngʼata ma awiro.
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.
To jogo mane dongʼ e dhoodi nobi ire kakulore e nyime mondo omi fedha gi kuon kendo nokwaye niya, “Yie imiya tich dolo moro mondo ayud kaka dayud chiemo machamo.”’”
