< 1 Samuel 1 >

1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim, a Zuphite of the hill country of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Toah, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
Ọkùnrin kan wà, láti Ramataimu-Sofimu, láti ìlú olókè Efraimu, ẹni tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Elkana, ọmọ Jerohamu, ọmọ Elihu, ọmọ Tohu, ọmọ Sufu, ará Efrata.
2 And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other, Peninnah. And Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
Ó sì ní ìyàwó méjì, orúkọ wọn ni Hana àti Penina: Penina ní ọmọ, ṣùgbọ́n Hana kò ní.
3 This man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice to the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, cohanim to the LORD, were there.
Ní ọdọọdún, ọkùnrin yìí máa ń gòkè láti ìlú rẹ̀ láti lọ sìn àti láti ṣe ìrúbọ sí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun jùlọ ní Ṣilo, níbi tí àwọn ọmọkùnrin Eli méjèèjì, Hofini àti Finehasi ti jẹ́ àlùfáà Olúwa.
4 When the day came for Elkanah to sacrifice, he would give portions to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and her daughters.
Nígbàkígbà tí ó bá kan Elkana láti ṣe ìrúbọ, òun yóò bù lára ẹran fún aya rẹ̀ Penina àti fún gbogbo àwọn ọmọ ọkùnrin àti obìnrin.
5 But to Hannah he would give a double portion because he loved Hannah. Now the LORD had kept her from conceiving.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó máa ń pín ìlọ́po fun Hana nítorí pé ó fẹ́ràn rẹ̀ àti pé Olúwa ti sé e nínú.
6 And because the LORD kept her from conceiving, her rival used to taunt her severely, to irritate her.
Nítorí pé Olúwa ti sé e nínú, orogún rẹ̀ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní fín níràn láti lè mú kí ó bínú.
7 And this went on year after year, as often as she went up to the house of the LORD, she taunted her; therefore she would weep and refuse to eat.
Eléyìí sì máa ń ṣẹlẹ̀ ní ọdọọdún. Nígbàkígbà tí Hana bá gòkè lọ sí ilé Olúwa, orogún rẹ̀ a máa fín níràn títí tí yóò fi máa sọkún tí kò sì ní lè jẹun.
8 And her husband Elkanah said to her, "Hannah, why are you weeping? And why are you not eating? And why are you so sad? Am I not better to you than ten sons?"
Elkana ọkọ rẹ̀ yóò sọ fún un pé, “Hana èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń sọkún? Èéṣe tí ìwọ kò fi jẹun? Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń ba ọkàn jẹ́? Èmi kò ha ju ọmọ mẹ́wàá lọ fún ọ bí?”
9 So Hannah got up after eating and drinking in Shiloh, and stood before the LORD. Now Eli the cohen was sitting on the seat by the doorpost of the temple of the LORD.
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti jẹ, tí wọ́n tún mu tán ní Ṣilo, Hana dìde wá síwájú Olúwa. Nígbà náà, Eli àlùfáà wà lórí àga ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé Olúwa ní ibi tí ó máa ń jókòó.
10 And she was greatly distressed and prayed to the LORD, and wept uncontrollably.
Pẹ̀lú ẹ̀dùn ọkàn Hana sọkún gidigidi, ó sì gbàdúrà sí Olúwa.
11 And she vowed a vow and said, "LORD of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your servant and remember me and not forget your servant, but will give to your servant a son, then I will set him before you as a Nazirite until the day of his death. And he will not drink wine or strong drink, and no razor will come on his head."
Ó sì jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ wí pé, “Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, jùlọ tí ìwọ bá le bojú wo ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ kí ìwọ sì rántí rẹ̀, tí ìwọ kò sì gbàgbé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ṣùgbọ́n tí ìwọ yóò fún un ní ọmọkùnrin, nígbà náà èmi yóò sì fi fún Olúwa ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé rẹ̀ a kì yóò sì fi abẹ kàn án ní orí.”
12 Now it happened, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli observed her mouth.
Bí ó sì ṣe ń gbàdúrà sí Olúwa, Eli sì kíyèsi ẹnu rẹ̀.
13 And she was speaking in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she was drunk.
Hana ń gbàdúrà láti inú ọkàn rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ètè rẹ̀ ni ó ń mì, a kò gbọ́ ohùn rẹ̀. Eli rò wí pé ó ti mu ọtí yó.
14 So Eli said to her, "How long will you make yourself drunk? Put away your wine, and go from before the LORD."
Eli sì wí fún un pé, “Yóò ti pẹ́ fún ọ tó tí ìwọ yóò máa yó? Mú ọtí wáìnì rẹ̀ kúrò.”
15 And Hannah answered, "No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I poured out my soul before the LORD.
Hana dá a lóhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, Olúwa mi, èmi ni obìnrin oníròbìnújẹ́. Èmi kò mu ọtí wáìnì tàbí ọtí líle; èmi ń tú ọkàn mi jáde sí Olúwa ni.
16 Do not count your servant as a worthless woman; for I have been speaking out of the abundance of my distress and my anguish."
Má ṣe mú ìránṣẹ́ rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí obìnrin búburú. Èmi ti ń gbàdúrà níhìn-ín nínú ìrora ọkàn àti ìbànújẹ́ mi.”
17 Then Eli answered, "Go in peace; and may the God of Israel grant your petition that you have asked of him."
Eli dáhùn pé, “Máa lọ ní àlàáfíà, kí Ọlọ́run Israẹli fi ohun tí ìwọ ti béèrè ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ fún ọ.”
18 She said, "Let your servant find favor in your sight." So the woman went her way, and entered her quarters, and ate; and her facial expression wasn't sad any more.
Ó wí pé, “Kí ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ rí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ lójú rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni obìnrin náà bá tirẹ̀ lọ, ó sì jẹun, kò sì fa ojú ro mọ́.
19 They rose up in the morning early, and worshiped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.
Wọ́n sì dìde ni kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀, wọn wólẹ̀ sìn níwájú Olúwa, wọn padà wa sí ilé wọn ni Rama: Elkana si mọ Hana aya rẹ̀: Olúwa sì rántí rẹ̀.
20 It happened, when the time had come, that Hannah conceived, and bore a son; and she named him Samuel, saying, "Because I have asked him of the LORD."
Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí ọjọ́ rẹ̀ pé, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Hana lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Samuẹli, pé, “Nítorí tí mo béèrè rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ Olúwa.”
21 The man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer to the LORD the yearly sacrifice, and to redeem his vow and all the tithes of his land.
Ọkùnrin náà Elkana, àti gbogbo àwọn ará ilé rẹ̀, gòkè lọ láti rú ẹbọ ọdún sí Olúwa, àti láti sán ẹ̀jẹ́ rẹ̀.
22 But Hannah did not go up; for she said to her husband, "Not until the child is weaned; then I will bring him, that he may appear before the LORD, and stay there forever."
Ṣùgbọ́n Hana kò gòkè lọ; nítorí tí ó sọ fún ọkọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ó di ìgbà tí mo bá gba ọmú lẹ́nu ọmọ náà, nígbà náà ni èmi yóò mú un lọ, kí òun lè fi ara hàn níwájú Olúwa, kí ó sí máa gbé ibẹ̀ títí láé.”
23 And Elkanah her husband said to her, "Do what seems good in your eyes. Wait until you have weaned him; only may the LORD establish what you have said." So the woman waited and nursed her son, until she weaned him.
Elkana ọkọ rẹ̀ sì wí fún un pé, “Ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ lójú rẹ. Dúró títí ìwọ yóò fi gba ọmú lẹ́nu rẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n kí Olúwa sá à mú ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ ṣẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni obìnrin náà sì jókòó, ó sì fi ọmú fún ọmọ rẹ̀ títí ó fi gbà á lẹ́nu rẹ̀.
24 Then she took him to Shiloh along with a three-year old bull, and bread, and an ephah of flour, and a skin of wine. And she came to the house of the LORD in Shiloh, and the boy was with them. And they went before the LORD and his father slaughtered the sacrifice, which he did annually to the LORD. Then he brought the boy,
Nígbà tí ó sì gba ọmú lẹ́nu rẹ̀, ó sì mú un gòkè lọ pẹ̀lú ara rẹ̀. Pẹ̀lú ẹgbọrọ màlúù mẹ́ta, àti ìyẹ̀fun efa kan, àti ìgò ọtí wáìnì kan, ó sì mú un wá sí ilé Olúwa ní Ṣilo: ọmọ náà sì wà ní ọmọdé.
25 and he slaughtered the bull. And Hannah, the mother of the boy, brought him to Eli.
Wọ́n pa ẹgbọrọ màlúù, wọ́n sì mú ọmọ náà tọ Eli wá.
26 She said, "Oh, my lord, as your soul lives, my lord, I am the woman who stood by you here, praying to the LORD.
Hana sì wí pé, “Olúwa mi, bí ọkàn rẹ ti wà láààyè, Olúwa mi, èmi ni obìnrin náà tí ó dúró lẹ́bàá ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ níhìn-ín tí ń tọrọ lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa.
27 For this child I prayed; and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him.
Ọmọ yìí ni mo ń tọrọ; Olúwa sì fi ìdáhùn ìbéèrè tí mo béèrè lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi.
28 Therefore also I have lent him to the LORD. As long as he lives he is lent to the LORD." Then she left him there, and she worshipped before the LORD.
Nítorí náà pẹ̀lú, èmi fi í fún Olúwa; ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé rẹ̀: nítorí tí mo ti béèrè rẹ̀ fún Olúwa.” Wọn si wólẹ̀ sin Olúwa níbẹ̀.
