Kings I 3
1 And the child Samuel ministered to the Lord before Heli the priest: and the word of the Lord was precious in those days, there was no distinct vision.
Hitichun, Chapangpa Samuel chun Eli thempu noiya lhacha na atong jing in ahi. Hiche nikho phatlai chun Pakaiya kona thu hung kiphong chu ahahlheh jeng tai, chule themgao mu nei’ah a jongaum vah vah tapon ahi.
2 And it came to pass at that time that Heli was sleeping in his place; and his eyes began to fail, and could not see.
Eli thempu in kho amuthei beh talou ahin, jankhat hi alupna ah aimutan ahi chule Samuel jong chu aimutan ahi.
3 And the lamp of God [was burning] before it was trimmed, and Samuel slept in the temple, where [was] the ark of God.
Pathen thaomei kide jong chu kisumit loulai ahin, Samuel vang chu ponbuh sunga aimutan ahi. Alupna chu Pathen thingkong komtah ahi.
4 And the Lord called, Samuel, Samuel; and he said, Behold, [here am] I.
Photlot louvin Pakaiyin, “Samuel” tin ahin koutan ahile, “Hoiyo, Ipi thu hitam?” tin ana donbut in ahi.
5 And he ran to Heli, and said, [Here am] I, for you did call me: and he said, I did not call you; return, go to sleep; and he returned and went to sleep.
Ama athoudoh in Eli komlang ah alhaiyin, “Hiche ah kaume neikouvem?” aga tin ahile, Eli thempu jong, “Kakoupoi, nalupna ah chekit tan,” tin adonbut’in ahile amajong achekit tai.
6 And the Lord called again, Samuel, Samuel: and he went to Heli the second time, and said, Behold [here am] I, for you did call me: and he said, I called you not; return, go to sleep.
Hichun Pakaiyin Samuel chu, “Samuel” tin ahin koukittai. Samuel jong athoudoh kit in Eli koma achekit in, “Hiche ah kaume neikouvem?” agatin ahi. Eli in jong hitin asei kit in, “Chapa kakoupoi, nalupna che kittan,” ati.
7 And [it was] before Samuel knew the Lord, and [before] the word of the Lord was revealed to him.
Samuel in Pakai ahi ding chu ahetlou ahi ajeh chu hitobang Pakai kouna chu anajah khah loulai ahi.
8 And the Lord called Samuel again for the third time: and he arose and went to Heli, and said, Behold, I [am here], for you did call me: and Heli perceived that the Lord [had] called the child.
Chuin Pakaiyin thumvei channan ahinkou kit in, Samuel athou doh in Eli thempu chu aga dong kit in, “Hiche ah kaume neikou vem?” ati. Chuin Eli in Pakai kouna ahiding kichen tah in ahetai.
9 And he said, Return, child, go to sleep; and it shall come to pass if he shall call you, that you shall say, Speak for your servant hears: and Samuel went and lay down in his place.
Chuin Samuel jah ah hitin aseipeh in, “Galum kit inlang, ijem tia nahung kikou kit’a ahileh, ‘Pakai seijin nalhachapa keiman kangaiye’” tin aseipeh tai, hichun Samuel jong ajalkhun lam ah akile kittai.
10 And the Lord came, and stood, and called him as before: and Samuel said, Speak, for your servant hears.
Chule Samuel henga Pakai ahung in, “Samuel! Samuel!” tin akouvin ahile, Samuel in, “Seijin nalhacha pa keiman kangaiye,” tin adonbut tan ahi.
11 And the Lord said to Samuel, Behold, I execute my words in Israel; whoever hears them, both his ears shall tingle.
Chuin Pakaiyin Samuel koma, “Ven keiman Israel sunga thil khat kabol ding, ahin hichun aja jouse nakhang asut ding ahi.
12 In that day I will raise up against Heli all things that I have said against his house; I will begin, and I will make an end.
Hiche nikho chule Eli insung douna a kasei jouse chu abulla kipat’a achaina geiya kaguilhun sah soh kei ding ahi.
13 And I have told him that I will be avenged on his house perpetually for the iniquities of his sons, because his sons spoke evil against God, and he did not admonish them.
Keiman thutan nahi amale ainsung mite chunga thu katan ding ahi, tithu thu kapeh ahitai, hichu aimatih chana ding ahi, ajeh chu acha tenin Pathen ataitom lhon in, chule aman jong gihsalna aneipon ahi.
14 And [it shall] not [go on] so; I have sworn to the house of Eli, the iniquity of the house of Eli shall not be atoned for with incense or sacrifices for ever.
Hijeh chun keiman Eli le achateni chonsetna chu kangaidam lou ding, kilhai nale pumgo thilto ho a kisucham joulou ding ahitai,” ati.
15 And Samuel slept till morning, and rose early in the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the Lord; and Samuel feared to tell [Heli] the vision.
Samuel alupna ah jingkah changeiyin aumdentai, Chuin ponbuh sunga konin ahung thoudoh in kot ahin hongdoh in, athujah ho seidoh ding akicha behseh in ahi. Pakai thusei chengho seidoh ding chu hahsa asa lheh in ahi.
16 And Heli said to Samuel, Samuel, [my] son; and he said, Behold, [here am] I.
Ahinlah Eli in akouvin, “Kacha Samuel,” tia agah kouleh, “Kei hicheah kaumnai,” tin Samuel in adonbut in ahi.
17 And he said, What [was] the word that was spoken to you? I pray you hide it not from me: may God do these things to you, and more also, if you hide from me any thing of all the words that were spoken to you in your ears.
“Pakaiyin nakoma ipi asei em? Abonchan imchah umlouvin neiseipeh in, ijem tia naim a naseidoh louva ahile Pathen mi jepna lePathen a kona thina nachunga chu mai tahen,” ati.
18 And Samuel reported all the words, and hid them not from him. And Heli said, He [is] the Lord, he shall do that which is good in his sight.
Chuin Samuel in Eli koma abonchan aseipeh sohkei tai, imacha aseidoh lou aumtapoi. Hichun Eli thempun jong, “Hiche hi Pathen phatsah ahi,” tin aphongdoh in ahi.
19 And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and there did not fall one of his words to the ground.
Samuel ahung khandoh toh lhon in Pakai in aumpin ahi. Chule thil ijakai Samuel in asei jouse aguilhung sohkei in ahi.
20 And all Israel knew from Dan even to Bersabee, that Samuel [was] faithful as a prophet to the Lord.
Chule Israel mipite jouse, Dan a kipat chunglam Beersheba chengeijin ahen, Samuel Pathen themgao ahitai ti suhdet ahitai.
21 And the Lord manifested himself again in Selom, for the Lord revealed himself to Samuel; and Samuel was accredited to all Israel as a prophet to the Lord from one end of the land to the other: and Heli [was] very old, and his sons kept advancing [in wickedness], and their way [was] evil before the Lord.
Pakai Pathen jong Shiloh mun ah akilah jing jeng in, Ponbuh sungah Samuel themgao komah thu alhut in, chule Samuel in Israel mipi te lah a ale lhut kit jin ahi.
