1 Samuel 1
1 And there is a certain man of Ramathaim-Zophim, of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name [is] Elkanah, son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, an Ephraimite,
Ary nisy lehilahy Efraimita anankiray tany Ramataima-zofima any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima, Elkana no anarany zanak’ i Jerohama, zanak’ i Eliho, zanak’ i Toho, zanak’ i Zofa.
2 and he has two wives, the name of the first [is] Hannah, and the name of the second Peninnah, and Peninnah has children, and Hannah has no children.
Ary namporafy izy, Hana no anaran’ ny vadiny anankiray, ary Penina no anaran’ ny anankiray; ary Penina nanan-janaka, fa Hana kosa tsy mba nanana.
3 And that man has gone up out of his city from time to time, to bow himself, and to sacrifice, before YHWH of Hosts, in Shiloh, and there [are] two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests of YHWH.
Ary ralehilahy niakatra isan-taona niala tamin’ ny tanànany hivavaka sy hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, tao Silo. Ary tao izy mirahalahy, zanak’ i Ely, dia Hofinia sy Finehasa, mpisoron’ i Jehovah.
4 And the day comes, and Elkanah sacrifices, and he has given portions to his wife Peninnah, and to all her sons and her daughters,
Ary tamin’ ny andro namonoan’ i Elkana zavatra hatao fanatitra dia samy nomeny anjara iray avy Penina vadiny sy ny zananilahy ary ny zananivavy rehetra.
5 and he gives a certain portion to Hannah—double, for he has loved Hannah, and YHWH has shut her womb;
Fa Hana kosa nomeny anjaran-droa, satria izy no tiany, nefa nataon’ i Jehovah momba.
6 and her rival has also provoked her greatly, so as to make her tremble, for YHWH has shut up her womb.
Ary ny rafiny dia nanorisory azy mba hampalahelo azy mafy noho ny nanaovan’ i Jehovah azy momba.
7 And so is done year by year, from the time of her going up into the house of YHWH, so she provokes her, and she weeps, and does not eat.
Ary izany no fanaon’ i Elkana isan-taona, raha niakatra ho any an-tranon’ i Jehovah Hana, ary izany koa no nanorisoren’ ny rafiny azy, koa nitomany izy sady tsy nety nihinan-kanina.
8 And her husband Elkanah says to her, “Hannah, why do you weep? And why do you not eat? And why is your heart afflicted? Am I not better to you than ten sons?”
Fa Elkana vadiny nanao taminy hoe: Ry Hana, nahoana no mitomany ianao? ary nahoana no tsy mety mihinan-kanina ianao? ary nahoana no malahelo fo ianao? Tsy tsara lavitra aminao mihoatra noho ny zanaka folo mirahalahy va aho?
9 And Hannah rises after eating in Shiloh, and after drinking, and Eli the priest is sitting on the throne by the doorpost of the temple of YHWH.
Ary rehefa nihinana sy nisotro tao Silo izy, dia nitsangana Hana. Ary Ely mpisorona nipetraka tamin’ ny sezany teo anilan’ ny tolam-baravaran’ ny tempolin’ i Jehovah.
10 And she is bitter in soul, and prays to YHWH, and weeps greatly,
Ary Hana dia nalahelo fanahy indrindra, ka nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah izy sady nitomany dia nitomany.
11 and vows a vow, and says, “YHWH of Hosts, if You certainly look on the affliction of Your handmaid, and have remembered me, and do not forget Your handmaid, and have given to Your handmaid seed of men—then I have given him to YHWH all [the] days of his life, and a razor does not go up on his head.”
Ary nivoady izy ka nanao hoe: Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, raha mba hitsinjo tokoa ny alahelon’ ny ankizivavinao Hianao ka hahatsiaro ahy ary tsy hanadino ny ankizivavinao, fa hanome ahy zazalahy, dia homeko ho an’ i Jehovah kosa izy amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany, ka tsy hokasihin-kareza ny lohany.
12 And it has been, when she multiplied praying before YHWH, that Eli is watching her mouth,
Ary raha mbola naharitra nivavaka teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy, dia nodinihin’ i Ely ny vavany.
13 and Hannah, she is speaking over her heart—only her lips are moving, and her voice is not heard, and Eli reckons her to be drunken.
Fa niteny anakampo Hana, ka ny molony ihany no nihetsiketsika, fa ny feony tsy re akory; ka dia nataon’ i Ely fa mamo izy.
14 And Eli says to her, “Until when are you drunken? Turn aside your wine from you.”
Dia hoy Ely taminy: Mandrapahoviana no ho mamo ianao? Esory aminao ny divainao.
15 And Hannah answers and says, “No, my lord, I [am] a woman sharply pained in spirit, and I have not drunk wine and strong drink, and I pour out my soul before YHWH;
Dia namaly Hana ka nanao hoe: Tsia, tompoko; vehivavy malahelo fanahy aho, fa tsy nisotro divay na toaka tsy akory, fa mamoaka ny ato am-poko eto anatrehan’ i Jehovah aho.
16 do not put your handmaid before a daughter of worthlessness, for from the abundance of my meditation, and of my provocation, I have spoken until now.”
Aza mba atao ho vehivavy tena ratsy fanahy ny ankizivavinao; fa ny haben’ ny fahoriako sy ny alaheloko no nitenenako mandraka ankehitriny.
17 And Eli answers and says, “Go in peace, and the God of Israel gives your petition which you have asked of Him.”
Dia namaly Ely ka nanao hoe: Mandehana soa aman-tsara; ary homen’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely anao anie izay nangatahinao taminy.
18 And she says, “Let your handmaid find grace in your eyes”; and the woman goes on her way, and eats, and her face has not been [downcast] for herself anymore.
Ary hoy izy: Aoka hahita fitia eo imasonao ny ankizivavinao. Dia lasa nandeha ravehivavy, ary nihinana izy ka tsy nalahelo tarehy intsony.
19 And they rise early in the morning, and bow themselves before YHWH, and turn back, and come to their house in Ramah, and Elkanah knows his wife Hannah, and YHWH remembers her;
Ary nifoha maraina koa izy ireo ka nivavaka teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, dia lasa nody ka tonga tao an-tranony tany Rama; ary Elkana nahalala an’ i Hana vadiny, ary Jehovah nahatsiaro azy.
20 and it comes to pass, at the revolution of the days, that Hannah conceives, and bears a son, and calls his name Samuel, for, “I have asked for him from YHWH.”
Ary tamin’ ny fahatanterahan’ ny andro dia nanan’ anaka Hana ka nitera-dahy, ary ny anarany nataony hoe Samoela, fa hoy izy: Tamin’ i Jehovah no nangatahako azy.
21 And the man Elkanah goes up, and all his house, to sacrifice to YHWH the sacrifice of the days, and his vow.
Ary ralehilahy Elkana sy ny ankohonany rehetra niakatra hamono zavatra mba hanaterany ny fanatitra fanao isan-taona ho an’ i Jehovah sy ny fanalam-boadiny.
22 And Hannah has not gone up, for she said to her husband, “Until the youth is weaned—then I have brought him in, and he has appeared before the face of YHWH, and dwelt there for all time.”
Fa Hana kosa tsy mba niakatra; fa hoy izy tamin’ ny vadiny: Aoka aloha mandra-panoty ny zaza, fa amin’ izay aho vao hitondra azy hiseho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, ka hitoetra ao mandrakizay izy.
23 And her husband Elkanah says to her, “Do that which is good in your eyes; abide until your weaning him; only, let YHWH establish His word”; and the woman abides and suckles her son until she has weaned him,
Ary hoy Elkana vadiny taminy: Ataovy ary izay tianao; mitoera ihany mandra-panotinao azy; ary hefain’ i Jehovah anie ny teniny. Dia nitoetra ravehivavy ka nampinono ny zanany mandra-panotiny azy.
24 and she causes him to go up with her when she has weaned him, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she brings him into the house of YHWH at Shiloh, and the youth [is but] a youth.
Ary nony efa maoty ny zaza, vao nentiny niakatra niaraka taminy izy mbamin’ ny vantotr’ ombilahy telo sy koba iray efaha ary divay iray tavoara, ka nentiny ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah tao Silo izy; ary mbola kely ny zaza.
25 And they slaughter the bullock, and bring in the youth to Eli,
Dia novonoiny ny vantotr’ ombilahy iray, ary nentiny ho ao amin’ i Ely ny zaza.
26 and she says, “O my lord, your soul lives! My lord, I [am] the woman who stood with you in this [place], to pray to YHWH;
Ary hoy Hana: Tompoko ô, raha velona koa ny ainao, tompoko, izaho ilay vehivavy nitsangana teto anilanao ka nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah.
27 I prayed for this youth, and YHWH gives to me my petition which I asked of Him;
Ny hahazoako ity zazalahy ity no nivavahako; dia nomen’ i Jehovah ahy izay nangatahiko taminy.
28 and I also have called him to YHWH, all the days that he has lived—he is called to YHWH”; and he bows himself there before YHWH.
Koa atolotro ho an’ i Jehovah kosa izy: eny, amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany dia voatolotra ho an’ i Jehovah izy. Dia nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah izy.
