1 Samuel 3

1 The child Samuel ministered to YHWH before Eli. The word of YHWH was rare in those days; there was no frequent vision.

А дете Самуило служаше Господу пред Илијем; и реч Господња беше ретка у оно време, и не јављаху се утваре.

2 It happened at that time, when Eli was lying down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see),

Једном у то време Илије лежаше на свом месту; а очи му почињаху тамнети те не могаше видети.

3 and the lamp of God hadn't yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in YHWH's temple, where the ark of God was;

И Самуило лежаше у дому Господњем где беше ковчег Божји, и жишци Господњи још не беху погашени.

4 that YHWH called, "Samuel. Samuel." And he said, "Here I am."

И викну Господ Самуила, а он рече: Ево ме.

5 He ran to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." He said, "I did not call; lie down again." He went and lay down.

И притрча к Илију, и рече му: Ево ме, што си ме звао? А он рече: Нисам те звао, иди лези. И он отиде и леже.

6 YHWHG called yet again, "Samuel. Samuel." And he got up and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." He answered, "I did not call, my son; lie down again."

А Господ опет викну Самуила, и Самуило уста, и отиде к Илију, и рече: Ево ме, што си ме звао? А он рече: Нисам те звао, сине; иди лези.

7 Now Samuel did not yet know God, neither was the word of YHWH yet revealed to him.

А Самуило још не познаваше Господа, и још му не беше јављена реч Господња.

8 Then YHWH called Samuel again the third time, and he got up and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." Then Eli realized that YHWH had called the child.

Тада опет викну Господ Самуила трећи пут, и он уста и отиде к Илију, и рече: Ево ме, што си ме звао? Тада разуме Илије да Господ зове дете.

9 So he said, "Go, lie down, and if he calls you, reply, 'Speak, for your servant is listening.'" Then Samuel went and lay down in his place.

И рече Илије Самуилу: Иди лези; а ако те зовне, а ти реци: Говори Господе, чује слуга твој. И Самуило отиде, и леже на своје место.

10 And YHWH came and stood, and called as at other times. Then Samuel said, "Speak, for your servant is listening."

А Господ дође и стаде; и зовну као пре: Самуило! Самуило! А Самуило рече: Говори, чује слуга твој.

11 YHWH said to Samuel, "Look, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of everyone who hears it shall tingle.

И рече Господ Самуилу: Ево учинићу нешто у Израиљу да ће зујати оба уха свакоме ко чује.

12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even to the end.

У тај дан ћу учинити Илију све што сам говорио за кућу његову, од почетка до краја.

13 For I have told him that I will judge his house forever, for the iniquity which he knew, because his sons were cursing God, and he did not restrain them.

Јер сам му јавио да ћу судити дому његовом довека за неваљалство, за које је знао да њим навлаче на се проклетство синови његови, па им није забранио.

14 Therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be removed with sacrifice nor offering forever."

Зато се заклех дому Илијевом да се неће очистити неваљалство дома Илијевог никаквом жртвом ни приносом довека.

15 And Samuel lay there until the morning, and in the morning he got up and opened the doors of the house of YHWH. And Samuel was afraid to tell Eli the vision.

И Самуило спава до јутра, па отвори врата дома Господњег. Али се бојаше Самуило казати Илију за утвару.

16 Then Eli said to Samuel, "Samuel, my son." And he replied, "Here I am."

А Илије зовну Самуила и рече: Самуило, сине! А он рече: Ево ме.

17 He said, "What is the thing that he has spoken to you? Please do not hide it from me. May God do thus to you if you hide anything from me of all the words that he spoke to you in your ears."

А он рече: Какве су речи што ти је казао? Немој затајити од мене; тако ти учинио Бог и тако ти додао, ако затајиш од мене шта год ти је казао.

18 And Samuel told him everything, and did not hide anything from him. And he said, "It is YHWH. Let him do what seems good to him."

И Самуило му каза све, и ништа не затаји од њега. А он рече: Господ је, нека чини оно што Му је воља.

19 So Samuel continued to grow, and YHWH was with him and let none of his words fail.

А Самуило растијаше, и Господ беше с њим, и не пусти да падне на земљу ниједна реч његова.

20 Thus all Israel from Dan to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established as a prophet of YHWH.

И сав Израиљ од Дана до Вирсавеје позна да је Самуило веран пророк Господњи.

21 And YHWH appeared again in Shiloh, for YHWH revealed himself to Samuel.

И Господ се стаде опет јављати у Силому, јер се Господ јављаше Самуилу у Силому речју Господњом.
