< 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.
O SAMUELA, ke keiki, lawelawe aku la ia na Iehova imua o Eli. Kakaikahi ka olelo a Iehova ia manawa: aole he hoikeia'na i laha.
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.
A ia mau la, ia Eli i moe ilalo ma kona wahi, ua powehiwehi kona maka, aole ia i ike;
3 And the lamp of God [was burning] before it was trimmed, and Samuel slept in the temple, where [was] the ark of God.
Mamua o ke pio ana o ke kukui o ke Akua ma ka halelewa o Iehova, kahi i waiho ai ka pahu o ke Akua, a ua moe iho o Samuela;
4 And the Lord called, Samuel, Samuel; and he said, Behold, [here am] I.
Hea mai la o Iehova ia Samuela, i aku la ia, Eia no wau.
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.
A holo aku la ia io Eli la, i aku la, Eia no wau, no ka mea, ua kahea mai oe ia'u. I mai la ia, Aole au i kahea aku; e moe hou oe. A hele aku la ia, a moe iho la.
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.
Kahea hou mai la o Iehova, E Samuela. A ala mai o Samuela, a hele io Eli la, i aku la, Eia no wau; no ka mea, ua kahea mai oe ia'u. I mai la ia, Aole au i kahea aku, e kuu keiki; e moe hou oe.
7 And [it was] before Samuel knew the Lord, and [before] the word of the Lord was revealed to him.
A o Samuela, aole ia i ike ia Iehova ia wa, aole hoi i hoikeia ka olelo a Iehova ia ia.
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.
Kahea hou mai la o Iehova ia Samuela, o ke kolu keia. Ala mai la ia, a hele aku la io Eli la, i aku la; Eia no wau; no ka mea, ua kahea mai oe ia'u. A ike iho la o Eli, ua kahea mai o Iehova i ke keiki.
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.
No ia mea, olelo aku la o Eli ia Samuela, O hoi oe e moe; a i kahea hou mai oia ia oe, e i aku oe, E Iehova, e olelo mai, no ka mea, ua lohe kau kauwa. A hoi aku la o Samuela, a moe iho la ma kona wahi.
10 And the Lord came, and stood, and called him as before: and Samuel said, Speak, for your servant hears.
Hele mai la o Iehova, a hoike ia ia iho, a kahea mai la e like me na manawa mamua, E Samuela, e Samuela. I aku la o Samuela, E olelo mai, no ka mea, ua lohe kau kauwa.
11 And the Lord said to Samuel, Behold, I execute my words in Israel; whoever hears them, both his ears shall tingle.
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Samuela, Aia hoi, e hana auanei au i kekahi mea iloko o ka Iseraela, i mea e kani ai na pepeiao elua o na mea a pau i lohe.
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.
Ia la no hooko aku au maluna o Eli i na mea a pau a'u i olelo ai no kona hale, o ka hoomaka ana, a me ka hoopau ana.
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.
Ua hai aku au ia ia, e hoohewa mau loa ana au i kona hale, no ka hewa ana i ike ai: no ka mea, na kana mau keiki i lawe mai ai ka hewa maluna o laua iho, aole ia i kaohi aku ia laua.
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.
No ia mea, ua hoohiki aku au no ko ka hale o Eli, aole e kalaia ka hewa o ko ka hale o Eli i ka mohai a i ka alana i ka manawa a pau.
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.
Moe iho la o Samuela a kakahiaka, a wehe ae la ia i na puka o ka hale o Iehova; a makau ino la o Samuela e hai aku ia Eli i ka mea i ikeia.
16 And Heli said to Samuel, Samuel, [my] son; and he said, Behold, [here am] I.
Kahea aku la o Eli ia Samuela, i aku la, E Samuela, e kuu keiki. I mai la ia, Eia no wau.
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.
Ninau aku la ia, Heaha ka mea a Iehova i olelo mai ai ia oe? Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, mai huna ia'u; pela ke Akua e hana mai ai ia oe, a e haawi hou mai hoi, ke huna oe ia'u i kekahi o ka olelo a pau ana i olelo mai ai ia oe.
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.
Hai aku la o Samuela ia ia i na olelo a pau, aole i huna ia ia. I mai la ia, Oia no o Iehova; e hana mai ia i kana mea i makemake ai.
19 And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and there did not fall one of his words to the ground.
A nui ae la o Samuela, a me ia pu no o Iehova, aole loa ana olelo i hooko ole ia mai e ia.
20 And all Israel knew from Dan even to Bersabee, that Samuel [was] faithful as a prophet to the Lord.
A ike ka Iseraela a pau, mai Dana a hiki i Beereseba, ua hookupaaia o Samuela i kaula no Iehova.
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.
A hoike hou ia mai la o Iehova ma Silo: no ka mea, hoike mai la o Iehova ia ia iho ia Samuela ma Silo ma ka olelo a Iehova.
