< 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,
Mayroong isang tao ng Romataim-Zofim, sa maburol na lupain ng Efraim; ang kanyang pangalan ay si Elkana na anak na lalaki ni Jeroham na anak na lalaki ni Elihu na anak na lalaki ni Tohu na anak na lalaki ni Zuf, isang Efrateo.
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.
Mayroon siyang dalawang asawa; ang pangalan ng unang asawa ay si Ana at ang pangalan ng pangalawa ay si Penina. Nagkaroon ng mga anak si Penina, ngunit hindi nagkaanak si Ana.
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.
Umaalis ang taong ito mula sa kanyang siyudad taon-taon upang sumamba at mag-alay kay Yahweh ng mga hukbo sa Shilo. Naroon ang dalawang anak na lalaki ni Eli, sina Hofni at Pinehas, na mga pari kay Yahweh.
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,
Kapag dumarating ang araw para kay Elkana para mag-alay bawat taon, palagi niyang binibigyan ng mga bahagi ng karne si Penina na kanyang asawa at lahat ng kanyang anak na lalaki at babae.
5 and he gives a certain portion to Hannah—double, for he has loved Hannah, and YHWH has shut her womb;
Ngunit para kay Ana binibigyan niya palagi ng dobleng bahagi si Ana, dahil minahal niya si Ana, kahit na isinara ni Yahweh ang kanyang sinapupunan.
6 and her rival has also provoked her greatly, so as to make her tremble, for YHWH has shut up her womb.
Lubos siyang ginalit ng kanyang karibal upang mainis siya, dahil isinara ni Yahweh ang kanyang sinapupunan.
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.
Kaya taon-taon, kapag umaakyat siya sa bahay ni Yahweh kasama ang kanyang pamilya, palagi siyang ginagalit ng kanyang karibal. Kaya umiiyak na lang siya at hindi na kumakain.
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?”
Palaging sinasabi sa kanya ng kanyang asawa na si Elkana, “Ana, bakit ka umiiyak? Bakit hindi ka kumakain? Bakit malungkot ang iyong puso? Hindi ba ako mas mabuti sa iyo kaysa sampung anak na lalaki?”
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.
Sa isa sa mga pagkakataong ito, tumayo si Ana matapos silang kumain at uminom sa Shilo. Ngayon nakaupo si Eli na pari sa kanyang upuan sa tapat ng pintuan patungo sa bahay ni Yahweh.
10 And she is bitter in soul, and prays to YHWH, and weeps greatly,
Labis ang kanyang pagdadalamhati; nanalangin siya kay Yahweh at umiyak nang matindi.
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.”
Gumawa siya ng isang panata at sinabi niya, “Yahweh ng mga hukbo, kung titingin ka sa dalamhati ng iyong lingkod at iisipin ako, at huwag mong kalimutan ang iyong lingkod, ngunit bigyan mo ng anak na lalaki ang iyong lingkod, pagkatapos ibibigay ko ang buong buhay niya kay Yahweh, at walang labaha ang dadampi sa kanyang ulo.”
12 And it has been, when she multiplied praying before YHWH, that Eli is watching her mouth,
Habang patuloy siyang nagdadasal sa harapan ni Yahweh, pinagmasdan ni Eli ang kanyang bibig.
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.
Nangusap si Ana sa kanyang puso. Gumalaw ang kanyang mga labi, ngunit hindi narinig ang kanyang boses. Kaya inakala ni Eli na siya ay lasing.
14 And Eli says to her, “Until when are you drunken? Turn aside your wine from you.”
Sinabi ni Eli sa kanya, “Gaano katagal kang magiging lasing? Itapon mo ang iyong alak.”
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;
Sumagot si Ana, “Hindi, aking amo, ako ay isang babaeng nagdadalamhati ang kalooban. Hindi ako nakainom ng alak o matapang na inumin, ngunit ibinubuhos ko ang aking kaluluwa sa harapan ni Yahweh.”
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.”
“Huwag mong ituring na ang iyong lingkod ay isang nakahihiyang babae; nagsasalita ako mula sa aking matinding pag-aalala at pagkagalit.”
17 And Eli answers and says, “Go in peace, and the God of Israel gives your petition which you have asked of Him.”
Pagkatapos sumagot si Eli at sinabing, “Umalis ka ng mapayapa; ipagkaloob nawa ng Diyos ng Israel ang iyong kahilingan na iyong hiniling sa kanya.”
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.
Sinabi niya, “Hayaang makasumpong ng biyaya ang iyong lingkod sa iyong paningin.” Pagkatapos umalis ang babae at kumain; hindi na malungkot ang kanyang mukha.
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;
Sila'y bumangon nang maaga sa araw na iyon at sumamba sa harapan ni Yahweh, at pagkatapos bumalik sila sa kanilang bahay sa Ramah. Sinipingan ni Elkana si Ana na kanyang asawa, at inalala siya ni Yahweh.
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.”
Nang dumating ang panahon, nabuntis si Ana at nagsilang ng isang batang lalaki. Tinawag niya ang kanyang pangalan na Samuel, sinasabing, “Dahil hiningi ko siya mula kay Yahweh.”
21 And the man Elkanah goes up, and all his house, to sacrifice to YHWH the sacrifice of the days, and his vow.
Muli, umakyat sina Elkana at ang kanyang buong bahay upang maghandog ng taunang pag-aalay at tuparin ang kanyang panata.
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.”
Ngunit hindi sumama si Ana; sinabi niya sa kanyang asawa, “Hindi ako sasama hanggang sa hindi na sumususo ang bata; pagkatapos dadalhin ko siya, upang maipakita siya sa harapan ni Yahweh at manirahan siya doon magpakailanman.”
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,
Sinabi ni Elkana na kanyang asawa sa kanya, “Gawin mo kung ano ang pasya mong mabuti sa iyo. Maghintay ka hanggang sa hindi mo na siya pinapasuso; pagtibayin lamang nawa ni Yahweh ang kanyang salita.” Kaya nanatili ang babae at pinasuso ang kanyang anak hanggang sa hindi na siya sumususo.
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.
Nang hindi na niya siya pinapasuso, isinama niya siya kasama ang tatlong taong gulang na toro, isang epa ng pagkain at isang bote ng alak, at dinala niya siya sa bahay ni Yahweh sa Shilo. Ngayon ang anak niya ay bata pa.
25 And they slaughter the bullock, and bring in the youth to Eli,
Pinatay nila ang toro, at dinala nila ang bata kay Eli.
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;
Sinabi niya, “O aking panginoon! Habang buhay ka, aking panginoon, ako ang babaeng tumayo rito sa tabi mo na nananalangin kay Yahweh.
27 I prayed for this youth, and YHWH gives to me my petition which I asked of Him;
Sapagkat ang batang ito ang aking ipinanalangin at ibinigay sa akin ni Yahweh ang aking kahilingan na aking hiniling sa kanya.
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.
Ibinibigay ko siya kay Yahweh; habang nabubuhay siya ipapahiram ko siya kay Yahweh.” At sinamba ni Elkana at kanyang pamilya si Yahweh doon.
