1 Samuel 2

1 And she prayed Hannah and she said it rejoices heart my in Yahweh it is exalted horn my in Yahweh it has opened wide mouth my on enemies my for I rejoiced in deliverance your.

And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart exults in Jehovah. My horn is exalted in Jehovah. My mouth is enlarged over my enemies because I rejoice in thy salvation.

2 There not [is] a holy [one] like Yahweh for there not [is] except you and there not [is] a rock like God our.

There is none holy as Jehovah, for there is none besides thee, neither is there any rock like our God.

3 May not you multiply you will speak haughty haughty it goes out arrogance from mouth your for [is] a God of knowledge Yahweh (and by him *Q(K)*) they are measured deeds.

Talk no more so very proudly. Let not arrogancy come out of your mouth, for Jehovah is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.

4 [the] bow of Warriors [are] shattered and [those who] stumble they gird on strength.

The bows of the mighty men are broken, and those who stumbled are girded with strength.

5 Satisfied [people] for food they hire themselves out and hungry [people] they cease to a barren [woman] she bears seven [children] and [a woman] many of sons she languishes.

Those who were full have hired out themselves for bread, and those who were hungry have ceased to hunger. Yea, the barren has borne seven, and she who has many sons languishes.

6 Yahweh [is] killing and [is] restoring to life [he is] bringing down Sheol and he has brought up. (Sheol h7585)

Jehovah kills, and makes alive. He brings down to Sheol, and brings up. (Sheol h7585)

7 Yahweh [is] making poor and [is] making rich [he is] bringing low also [is] exalting.

Jehovah makes poor, and makes rich. He brings low, he also lifts up.

8 [he is] raising up From [the] dust [the] poor from [the] ash heap he lifts up [the] needy to cause [them] to dwell with noble [people] and a throne of honor he makes inherit them for [belong] to Yahweh [the] pillars of [the] earth and he set on them [the] world.

He raises up the poor out of the dust, he lifts up the needy from the dunghill, to make them sit with rulers, and inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are Jehovah's, and he has set the world upon them.

9 [the] feet of (Faithful [people] his *Q(K)*) he will protect and wicked [people] in the darkness they will be silenced for not by strength he will prevail anyone.

He will keep the feet of his holy ones, but the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness, for by strength no man shall prevail.

10 Yahweh they will be shattered ([those who] contend against him *Q(K)*) (on him *Q(k)*) in the heavens he will thunder Yahweh he will judge [the] ends of [the] earth so he may give strength to king his and he will exalt [the] horn of anointed his.

Those who strive with Jehovah shall be broken to pieces. He will thunder against them in heaven. Jehovah will judge the ends of the earth, and he will give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.

11 And he went Elkanah Ramah towards on house his and the lad he was serving Yahweh with [the] presence of Eli the priest.

And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house, and the child ministered to Jehovah before Eli the priest.

12 And [the] sons of Eli [were] sons of worthlessness not they knew Yahweh.

Now the sons of Eli were base men; they knew not Jehovah.

13 And [the] custom of the priests with the people every person [who] was sacrificing a sacrifice and he came [the] servant of the priest when boiled the meat and the fork [the] three the prongs [was] in hand his.

And 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 flesh-hook of three teeth in his hand,

14 And he thrust [it] in the pot or in the kettle or in the caldron or in the pot all that it brought up the fork he took the priest for himself thus they did to all Israel who came there at Shiloh.

and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot. All that the flesh-hook brought up the priest took with it. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.

15 Also before they made smoke! the fat and he came - [the] servant of the priest and he said to the man who was sacrificing give! meat to roast to the priest and not he will accept from you meat boiled that except raw.

And before they burned the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man who sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest, for he will not have boiled flesh from thee, but raw.

16 And he said to him the man surely let them make smoke! as the day the fat and take for yourself just as it desires appetite your and he said - (no *Q(K)*) that now you will give [it] and if not I take [it] by force.

And if the man said to him, They will surely burn the fat first, and then take as much as thy soul desires, then he would say, No, but thou shall give it to me now, and if not, I will take it by force.

17 And it was [the] sin of the young men great very with [the] presence of Yahweh for they treated with contempt the men [the] offering of Yahweh.

And the sin of the young men was very great before Jehovah, for the men despised the offering of Jehovah.

18 And Samuel [was] serving with [the] presence of Yahweh a lad girded an ephod of linen.

But Samuel ministered before Jehovah, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.

19 And a robe small she made for him mother his and she brought it up to him from days - days towards when went up she with husband her to sacrifice [the] sacrifice of the days.

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.

20 And he blessed Eli Elkanah and wife his and he said may he appoint Yahweh for you offspring from the woman this in place of the petition which someone asked to Yahweh and they went to place his.

And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Jehovah give thee seed by this woman for the petition which was asked of Jehovah. And they went to their own home.

21 For he visited Yahweh Hannah and she conceived and she bore three sons and two daughters and he grew up the lad Samuel with Yahweh.

And Jehovah visited Hannah, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before Jehovah.

22 And Eli he was old exceedingly and he heard all that they did! sons his to all Israel and [he heard] this: they were lying with! the women who were serving [the] opening of [the] tent of meeting.

Now Eli was very old. And he heard all that his sons did to all Israel, and how that they lay with the women who assembled at the door of the tent of meeting.

23 And he said to them why? are you doing! according to the things these that I [am] hearing things your wicked from with all the people these.

And he said to them, Why do ye such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all this people.

24 May not [it be] O sons my for [is] not good the report which I [am] hearing [which are] spreading [the] people of Yahweh.

No, my sons, for it is no good report that I hear. Ye make Jehovah's people to transgress.

25 If he will sin a person to a person and he will mediate for him God and if to Yahweh he will sin a person who? will he intercede for him and not they listened to [the] voice of father their for he desired Yahweh to put to death them.

If one man sins against another, God shall judge him, but if a man sins against Jehovah, who shall entreat for him? Notwithstanding, they did not hearken to the voice of their father, because Jehovah intended to kill them.

26 And the lad Samuel [was] going and [was] growing up and he was good both with Yahweh as well as with people.

And the child Samuel grew on, and increased in favor both with Jehovah, and also with men.

27 And he came a man of God to Eli and he said to him thus he says Yahweh ¿ really did I reveal myself to [the] house of ancestor your when were they in Egypt to [the] house of Pharaoh.

And there came a man of God to Eli, and said to him, Thus says Jehovah, Did I reveal myself to the house of thy father when they were in Egypt in bondage to Pharaoh's house?

28 And I chose him from all [the] tribes of Israel for myself to a priest to go up on altar my to make smoke incense to bear an ephod before me and I gave! to [the] house of ancestor your all [the] fire offerings of [the] people of Israel.

And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? And did I give to the house of thy father all the offerings of the sons of Israel made by fire?

29 Why? do you kick at sacrifice my and at offering my which I commanded a dwelling place and you honor sons your more than me by fattening yourselves from [the] choicest of every offering of Israel of people my.

Why do ye kick at my sacrifice and at my offering, which I have commanded in my habitation, and honor thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chief of all the offerings of Israel my people?

30 Therefore [the] utterance of Yahweh [the] God of Israel certainly I said house your and [the] house of ancestor your they will walk about before me until perpetuity and now [the] utterance of Yahweh far be it to me for [those who] honor me I will honor and [those who] despise me they will be insignificant.

Therefore Jehovah, the God of Israel, says, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy 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.

31 Here! days [are] coming and I will cut off arm your and [the] arm of [the] house of ancestor your from being an old [man] in house your.

Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house.

32 And you will look at [the] distress of a dwelling place in all that he will do good to Israel and not he will be an old [man] in house your all the days.

And thou shall see an enemy in my habitation, in all that I shall give Israel, and there shall not be an old man in thy house forever.

33 And a man not I will cut off to you from with altar my to cause to fail eyes your and to cause to grieve self your and all [the] increase of house your they will die men.

And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from my altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy heart. And all the increase of thy house shall die in the flower of their age.

34 And this for you [will be] the sign which it will come to [the] two sons your to Hophni and Phinehas on a day one they will die both of them.

And this shall be the sign to thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: In one day they shall die, both of them.

35 And I will raise up for myself a priest faithful according to [that] which [is] in heart my and in soul my he will act and I will build for him a house sure (and he will walk about *LAH(b)*) before anointed my all the days.

And I will raise up for me a faithful priest who shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind. And I will build for him a sure house, and he shall walk before my anointed forever.

36 And it will be every [one who] remains in house your he will come to bow down to him for a payment of silver and a round loaf of bread and he will say attach me please to one of the priesthoods to eat a piece of bread.

And it shall come to pass, that everyone who is left in thy house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices that I may eat a morsel of bread.
