< 1 Samuel 2 >
1 And she said, "My heart rejoices in Jehovah. My strength rises up in my God. My mouth boasts over my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.
To naah Hannah mah, Angraeng ah palung kang hoe; Angraeng mah kai ih takii to sangsak; na pahlonghaih ah kang hoe pongah, ka misanawk khaeah amoekhaih hoiah lok ka paeh boeh.
2 Truly, there is no one as holy as Jehovah. Truly, there is no one besides you, nor is there any rock like our God.
Angraeng baktiah ciimcai kami maeto doeh om ai; nang ai ah loe kalah Sithaw om ai; aicae Sithaw baktiah abuephaih lungsong mi doeh om ai.
3 Do not speak boastfully or let arrogance come out of your mouth, for Jehovah is a God of knowledge. By him actions are weighed.
Amoekhaih lokthui hmah, pakha thung hoiah amoekhaih lok tacawtsak hmah nasoe; Angraeng loe hmuen boih panoek Sithaw ah oh, a sak o ih hmuennawk to anih mah khingh.
4 The bows of the mighty men are broken. Those who stumbled are armed with strength.
Thacak kaminawk ih kalii loe angkhaeh boih boeh moe, amthaek kaminawk to thacakhaih hoiah oh o lat boeh.
5 Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread. Those who were hungry are satisfied. Even the barren has borne seven, and she who has many children languishes.
Zok kamhah ah buh caa kaminawk loe caaknaek hak hanah minawk khaeah toksak o moe, zok amthlam kaminawk zok amhah o lat boeh; caa kaak kaminawk loe caa sarihto sak o moe, kapop ah caa sah nongpata to thazok lat boeh.
6 Jehovah kills, and makes alive. He brings down to Sheol, and brings up. (Sheol )
Angraeng nang loe kami to paduek thaih moe hinghaih doeh paek thaih, taprong thungah caehsak thaih moe, pathawk thaih. (Sheol )
7 Jehovah makes poor, and makes rich. He brings low, he also lifts up.
Angraeng mah amtanghaih hoi angraenghaih to ohsak moe, ahnaemhaih hoi sanghaih doeh ohsak.
8 He raises up the poor out of the dust. He lifts up the needy from the dunghill, To make them sit with princes, and inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are Jehovah's. He has set the world on them.
Angraeng capanawk salakah anghnutsak moe, lensawkhaih angraeng tangkhang toepsak hanah, anih mah amtang kami to maiphu thung hoiah pathawk moe, caaknaek tawn ai kaminawk to maiphu thung hoiah pathawk; long ih homhnawk loe Angraeng ih ni; to homhnawk nuiah long to a suek.
9 He will guard the feet of his faithful ones, but the wicked will be put to silence in darkness. For no man will prevail by strength.
Anih mah ciimcai angmah kaminawk ih khok to khen pae tih, kasae kaminawk loe khoving thungah anghmaa angtaa o tih; mi mah doeh thacakhaih hoiah pazawk thai mak ai.
10 Those who strive with Jehovah will be broken to pieces. He will thunder against them in the sky. "Jehovah will judge the farthest parts of the earth. He will give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed."
Angraeng ih misanawk loe koi o phaeng tih; nihcae to van bang hoiah khopazih thuih ueloe, long boenghaih khoek to Angraeng mah lokcaek tih; angmah ih siangpahrang khaeah thacakhaih to paek ueloe, angmah situi bawh kami ih takii to sawksak tih, tiah lawkthuih.
11 And she went to Ramah, while the child served Jehovah before Eli the priest.
To pacoengah Elkanah loe im ah Ramah vangpui ah amlaem; toe a caa nawkta loe Eli khaeah Angraeng ih tok to sak.
12 Now the sons of Eli were worthless men; they did not know Jehovah.
Eli capa hnik loe kahoih ai kami ah oh hoi; Angraeng to panoek hoi ai.
13 The custom of the priests with the people was that when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a fork of three teeth in his hand;
Kaminawk hoi nawnto oh naah qaima mah sak han koi hmuen loe hae tiah oh; angbawnhaih moi to thongh li naah, qaima ih tamna maeto angzo tih, anih loe aha thumto kaom moi thunhaih racah to sin tih,
14 and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fork brought up the priest took therewith. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.
anih mah camphaek laom, to tih ai boeh loe tahmawh kaom laom, to tih ai boeh loe laom kangphaek, to tih ai boeh loe laom kangbuet thung ih moi to quh tathuk ueloe, racah kamsum aha mah thunh ih moi to qaima angmah ih taham ah la tih; to pongah Shiloh ah angzo Israel kaminawk boih hanah to tiah sak pae o.
15 Yes, before they burnt the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man who sacrificed, "Give meat to roast for the priest; for he will not accept boiled meat from you, but raw."
Toe athawk hmai pakhaem ai naah, qaima ih tamna to angzoh moe, angbawnhaih moi bop kami khaeah, Haek hanah qaima ih taham moi to paek ah; anih loe thongh tangcae moi to koeh ai; kahaeng moi ni a koeh, tiah a naa.
16 If the man said to him, "Let the fat be burned first, and then take all of it which your soul desires"; then he would say, "No, but you shall give it to me now; and if not, I will take it by force."
To kami mah anih khaeah, Moithawk hae hmai ka pakhaem han vop, to pacoengah na koeh zetto moi to la ah, tiah a naa. Toe anih mah, To tih na ai ni, vaihi roe na paek ah; nang paek ai nahaeloe, tha hoiah kang lomh han, tiah a naa.
17 The sin of the young men was very great before Jehovah; for they despised the offering of Jehovah.
Angraeng khae paek ih hmuen to panuet thok ah a sak hoi pongah, thendoeng hnik loe Angraeng hmaa ah kalen parai zaehaih to a sak hoi.
18 But Samuel ministered before Jehovah, being a child, clothed with a linen ephod.
Toe Samuel loe puu ngan khukbuen to angkhuk moe, Angraeng hmaa ah toksak.
19 Moreover his mother made him a little robe, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
Saning kruek amno mah anih hanah kahni tetta sak pae moe, angbawnhaih sak hanah saning kruek a sava hoi nawnto caeh hoi tahang naah, anih hanah a sinh pae hoi.
20 And Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and said, "May Jehovah repay you with offspring by this woman for the gift which she made to Jehovah." And the man returned to his home.
Eli mah Elkanah hoi a zu to tahamhoihaih paek; Angraeng khaeah lawkthuihaih hoi hnik ih capa to, Angraeng angmah khaeah na paek hoi let pongah, Angraeng mah hae nongpata hanah caa kapop ah sahsak nasoe, tiah a naa. To pacoengah nihnik loe angmah hnik im ah amlaem hoi.
21 Jehovah visited Hannah, and she bore more children, three sons and two daughters. The child Samuel grew before Jehovah.
Angraeng mah Hannah khaeah tahmenhaih amtuengsak pongah, nawkta to sak hoi let moe, capa thumto hoi canu hnetto tawnh hoi let. To pongah nawkta Samuel loe Angraeng hmaa ah qoeng tahang aep aep.
22 Now Eli was very old; and he heard what his sons did to the children of Israel (and how that they lay with the women who served at the door of the Tent of Meeting).
Eli loe paroeai mitong boeh, to naah a caa hnik mah Israel kaminawk nuiah sak hoi ih hmuennawk hoi amkhuenghaih kahni im toepkung nongpatanawk to iih hoi haih ti, tiah thuih o ih hmuen kawngnawk boih to a thaih.
23 And he said to them, "Why do you do such things as these that I hear being said of you from the mouth of the people of Jehovah?
To pongah anih mah a caa hnik khaeah, Tipongah hae baktih hmuennawk hae na sak hoi loe? Na sak hoi ih kahoih ai hae baktih hmuen kawng hae minawk khae hoiah ka thaih.
24 No, my sons, do not do this. For it is not a good report that I hear the people of Jehovah spreading.
Ka caa hnik, to tiah na ai ni; ka thaih ih tamthang loe hoih ai; Angraeng ih kaminawk na zae hoi sak boeh.
25 If a man sins gravely against another, he can appeal to Jehovah; but if a man sins against Jehovah, who can intercede for him?" But, they did not listen to the voice of their father, because Jehovah intended to kill them.
Kami maeto mah kalah kami maeto nuiah zaehaih sah nahaeloe, lokcaekkung mah lok to takroek pae tih; toe kami mah Sithaw hmaa ah zaehaih sah nahaeloe, mi mah maw anih hanah tahmenhaih hni pae tih? tiah a naa. Toe nihnik paduek hanah Sithaw mah lokkhaeh tangcae boeh pongah, nihnik mah ampa ih lok to tahngai pae hoi ai.
26 The child Samuel grew on, and increased in favor both with Jehovah, and also with men.
Nawkta Samuel loe qoeng tahang aep aep moe, Sithaw hoi kaminawk mikcuk naakrak ah khosak.
27 A man of God came to Eli, and said, "Thus says Jehovah, I plainly revealed myself to the house of your father, when they were slaves in Egypt to the house of Pharaoh.
To pacoengah Sithaw kami maeto Eli im ah angzoh moe, anih khaeah, Izip prae Faro imthung ah a oh o naah, kaimah roe nam pa imthung takoh nuiah kamtueng thuih na ai maw? tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
28 And I chose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, and to wear an ephod. And I gave to the house of your father all the offerings by fire of the children of Israel as food.
Nam pa loe ka hmaicam ah angbawnhaih, hmuihoih hmai thlaekhaih hoi ka hmaa ah puu ngan kahni to angkhuk moe, ka tok sak hanah, Israel acaengnawk thung hoiah kaimah ih qaima ah ka qoih na ai maw?
29 Then why do you look at my sacrifice and my offering with a selfish eye, and honor your sons more than me in letting them eat from the first part of every offering of Israel before me?'
Tipongah ka ohhaih im ah sak ih angbawnhaih hoi tathlang ih hmuen to khok hoiah na pathuih loe? Na thawk hanah Israel kaminawk mah paek o ih kahoih koek hmuen hoiah kang pacah na ai maw, tikhoe kai pongah na caa hnik to na pakoeh kue loe? tiah a naa.
30 "Therefore Jehovah, the God of Israel, says, 'I said indeed that your house, and the house of your father, should walk before me forever.' But now Jehovah says, 'Be it far from me; for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
To pongah na imthung hoi nam pa imthung takoh loe, ka hmaa ah dungzan khoek to toksah poe tih, tiah lok ka thuih, tiah Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih. Toe vaihi loe Angraeng mah, Kai hoiah angthla lai nasoe; kai pakoeh kaminawk to ka pakoeh han, kai patoek kaminawk loe azathaih tong o tih.
31 Look, the days come, that I will cut off your descendants, and the descendants of your father's house, that there shall not be an old man in your house.
Khenah, na ban hoi nampa imthung takoh ih ban ka takroekhaih atue to pha tih; na imthung takoh ah saningcoeh mitong om mak ai boeh.
32 And you will see distress in the dwelling place, in all that he does good with Israel. And there will not be an old man in your house all the days.
Sithaw mah Israel kaminawk khaeah kahoih hmuen to paek, toe ka ohhaih ahmuen ah misa to na hnu tih; natuek naah doeh na imthung takoh ah saningcoeh mitong om mak ai boeh.
33 And the man of yours I do not cut off from my altar will be to cause his eyes to fail and to grieve his soul, and all the increase of your house will die by the sword of men.
Apet ai ah ka hmaicam ah ka suek ih nangmah ih acaeng mah, na mik to amrosak ueloe, palung na saesak tih; na imthung takohnawk boih apawk baktiah ampha li naah, dueh o tih.
34 "'This shall be the sign to you, that shall come on your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall both die.
Na capa hnik, Hophni hoi Phinehas loe, nang ih angmathaih ah om hoi tih; nihnik loe nito thungah dueh hoi hmaek tih.
35 I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind. I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before my anointed forever.
Kaimah hanah oepthok qaima maeto ka suek han, palung thungah ka poek ih hmuen baktih toengah anih mah sah tih; anih hanah kacak im to ka sak pae han, anih loe situi ka bawh ih kami hmaa ah dungzan khoek to toksah tih.
36 It shall happen, that everyone who is left in your house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say, "Please put me into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a morsel of bread."'"
Kanghmat na imthung takoh kaminawk mah, anih khaeah caeh o ueloe, anih hmaa ah akuephaih hoiah phoisa zetta hoi takaw kae tetta to hni o tih, to pacoengah Buh ka caak thai hanah, qaima toksakhaih ahmuen ah tok na sahsak ah, tiah hni o tih, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
