1 Samuel 3
1 And the youth Samuel is serving YHWH before Eli, and the word of YHWH has been precious in those days—there is no vision breaking forth.
| وَكَانَ ٱلصَّبِيُّ صَمُوئِيلُ يَخْدِمُ ٱلرَّبَّ أَمَامَ عَالِي. وَكَانَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَزِيزَةً فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. لَمْ تَكُنْ رُؤْيَا كَثِيرًا. | ١ |
2 And it comes to pass, at that time, that Eli is lying down in his place, and his eyes have begun [to be] faded—he is not able to see.
| وَكَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ إِذْ كَانَ عَالِي مُضْطَجِعًا فِي مَكَانِهِ وَعَيْنَاهُ ٱبْتَدَأَتَا تَضْعُفَانِ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ أَنْ يُبْصِرَ. | ٢ |
3 And the lamp of God is not yet extinguished, and Samuel is lying down in the temple of YHWH, where the Ark of God [is],
| وَقَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْطَفِئَ سِرَاجُ ٱللهِ، وَصَمُوئِيلُ مُضْطَجعٌ فِي هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ تَابُوتُ ٱللهِ، | ٣ |
4 and YHWH calls to Samuel, and he says, “Here I [am].”
| أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ دَعَا صَمُوئِيلَ، فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا». | ٤ |
5 And he runs to Eli and says, “Here I [am], for you have called for me”; and he says, “I did not call; turn back, lie down”; and he goes and lies down.
| وَرَكَضَ إِلَى عَالِي وَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا لِأَنَّكَ دَعَوْتَنِي». فَقَالَ: «لَمْ أَدْعُ. ٱرْجعِ ٱضْطَجِعْ». فَذَهَبَ وَٱضْطَجَعَ. | ٥ |
6 And YHWH adds to call Samuel again, and Samuel rises and goes to Eli, and says, “Here I [am], for you have called for me”; and he says, “I have not called, my son, turn back, lie down.”
| ثُمَّ عَادَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَدَعَا أَيْضًا صَمُوئِيلَ. فَقَامَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى عَالِي وَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا لِأَنَّكَ دَعَوْتَنِي». فَقَالَ: «لَمْ أَدْعُ يَاٱبْنِي. ٱرْجعِ ٱضْطَجِعْ». | ٦ |
7 And Samuel has not yet known YHWH, and the word of YHWH is not yet revealed to him.
| وَلَمْ يَعْرِفْ صَمُوئِيلُ ٱلرَّبَّ بَعْدُ، وَلَا أُعْلِنَ لَهُ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ بَعْدُ. | ٧ |
8 And YHWH adds to call Samuel the third time, and he rises and goes to Eli, and says, “Here I [am], for you have called for me”; and Eli understands that YHWH is calling to the youth.
| وَعَادَ ٱلرَّبُّ فَدَعَا صَمُوئِيلَ ثَالِثَةً. فَقَامَ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى عَالِي وَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا لِأَنَّكَ دَعَوْتَنِي». فَفَهِمَ عَالِي أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَدْعُو ٱلصَّبِيَّ. | ٨ |
9 And Eli says to Samuel, “Go, lie down, and it has been, if He calls to you, that you have said, Speak, YHWH, for Your servant is hearing”; and Samuel goes and lies down in his place.
| فَقَالَ عَالِي لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «ٱذْهَبِ ٱضْطَجِعْ، وَيَكُونُ إِذَا دَعَاكَ تَقُولُ: تَكَلَّمْ يَارَبُّ لِأَنَّ عَبْدَكَ سَامِعٌ». فَذَهَبَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَٱضْطَجَعَ فِي مَكَانِهِ. | ٩ |
10 And YHWH comes, and stations Himself, and calls as time by time, “Samuel, Samuel”; and Samuel says, “Speak, for Your servant is hearing.”
| فَجَاءَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَوَقَفَ وَدَعَا كَٱلْمَرَّاتِ ٱلْأُوَلِ: «صَمُوئِيلُ، صَمُوئِيلُ». فَقَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ: «تَكَلَّمْ لِأَنَّ عَبْدَكَ سَامِعٌ». | ١٠ |
11 And YHWH says to Samuel, “Behold, I am doing a thing in Israel, at which the two ears of everyone hearing it tingle.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «هُوَذَا أَنَا فَاعِلٌ أَمْرًا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلُّ مَنْ سَمِعَ بِهِ تَطِنُّ أُذُنَاهُ. | ١١ |
12 In that day I establish to Eli all that I have spoken to his house, beginning and completing;
| فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أُقِيمُ عَلَى عَالِي كُلَّ مَا تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ عَلَى بَيْتِهِ. أَبْتَدِئُ وَأُكَمِّلُ. | ١٢ |
13 and I have declared to him that I am judging his house for all time, for the iniquity which he has known, for his sons are making themselves vile, and he has not restrained them,
| وَقَدْ أَخْبَرْتُهُ بِأَنِّي أَقْضِي عَلَى بَيْتِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ بَنِيهِ قَدْ أَوْجَبُوا بِهِ ٱللَّعْنَةَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ، وَلَمْ يَرْدَعْهُمْ. | ١٣ |
14 and therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli: the iniquity of the house of Eli is not atoned for, by sacrifice, and by offering—for all time.”
| وَلِذَلِكَ أَقْسَمْتُ لِبَيْتِ عَالِي أَنَّهُ لَا يُكَفَّرُ عَنْ شَرِّ بَيْتِ عَالِي بِذَبِيحَةٍ أَوْ بِتَقْدِمَةٍ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». | ١٤ |
15 And Samuel lies until the morning, and opens the doors of the house of YHWH, and Samuel is afraid of declaring the vision to Eli.
| وَٱضْطَجَعَ صَمُوئِيلُ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ، وَفَتَحَ أَبْوَابَ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. وَخَافَ صَمُوئِيلُ أَنْ يُخْبِرَ عَالِيَ بِٱلرُّؤْيَا. | ١٥ |
16 And Eli calls Samuel and says, “Samuel, my son”; and he says, “Here I [am].”
| فَدَعَا عَالِي صَمُوئِيلَ وَقَالَ: «يَاصَمُوئِيلُ ٱبْنِي» فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا». | ١٦ |
17 And he says, “What [is] the word which He has spoken to you? Please do not hide it from me; so God does to you, and so does He add, if you hide from me a word of all the words that He has spoken to you.”
| فَقَالَ: «مَاٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَكَ بِهِ؟ لَا تُخْفِ عَنِّي. هَكَذَا يَعْمَلُ لَكَ ٱللهُ وَهَكَذَا يَزِيدُ إِنْ أَخْفَيْتَ عَنِّي كَلِمَةً مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَكَ بِهِ». | ١٧ |
18 And Samuel declares to him the whole of the words, and has not hid from him; and he says, “It [is] YHWH; that which is good in His eyes He does.”
| فَأَخْبَرَهُ صَمُوئِيلُ بِجَمِيعِ ٱلْكَلَامِ وَلَمْ يُخْفِ عَنْهُ. فَقَالَ: «هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ. مَا يَحْسُنُ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ يَعْمَلُ». | ١٨ |
19 And Samuel grows up, and YHWH has been with him, and has not let any of his words fall to the earth;
| وَكَبِرَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ مَعَهُ، وَلَمْ يَدَعْ شَيْئًا مِنْ جَمِيعِ كَلَامِهِ يَسْقُطُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٩ |
20 and all Israel knows, from Dan even to Beer-Sheba, that Samuel is established for a prophet to YHWH.
| وَعَرَفَ جَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دَانَ إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ أَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱؤْتُمِنَ صَمُوئِيلُ نَبِيًّا لِلرَّبِّ. | ٢٠ |
21 And YHWH adds to appear in Shiloh, for YHWH has been revealed to Samuel, in Shiloh, by the word of YHWH.
| وَعَادَ ٱلرَّبُّ يَتَرَاءَى فِي شِيلُوهَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱسْتَعْلَنَ لِصَمُوئِيلَ فِي شِيلُوهَ بِكَلِمَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٢١ |
