< 1 Samuel 1 >

1 And he was a man one from Ramathaim Zophim from [the] hill country of Ephraim and name his [was] Elkanah [the] son of Jeroham [the] son of Elihu [the] son of Tohu [the] son of Zuph an Ephrathite.
Vakai naʻe ai ha tangata ʻo Lamateimi-Sofimi ʻoe moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi, ko hono hingoa ko ʻElikena, ko e foha ʻo Seloami ko e foha ʻo Elihu, ko e foha ʻo Tohu: ko e foha ʻo Sufi, ko e tangata ʻEfalata:
2 And [belonged] to him two wives [the] name of one [was] Hannah and [the] name of the second [was] Peninnah and it belonged to Peninnah children and [belonged] to Hannah not children.
Pea naʻe toko ua hono uaifi; ko e hingoa ʻoe tokotaha ko ʻAna, pea ko Penina ʻae hingoa ʻoe tokotaha: pea naʻe ai ʻae fānau ʻa Penina, ka naʻe ʻikai ha fānau ʻa ʻAna.
3 And he went up the man that from city his from days - days towards to bow down and to sacrifice to Yahweh of hosts at Shiloh and there [the] two [the] sons of Eli Hophni and Phinehas [were] priests of Yahweh.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae tangata ni mei heʻene kolo ki Sailo ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē ke lotu mo ʻatu ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau. Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ongo foha ʻo Ilai, ko Hofini mo Finiasi ko e ongo taulaʻeiki ʻo Sihova.
4 And it was the day and he sacrificed Elkanah and he gave to Peninnah wife his and to all sons her and daughters her portions.
Pea ʻi he hoko ʻae ʻaho ke fai ʻae feilaulau ʻe ʻElikena, naʻa ne vahe kia Penina ko hono uaifi, mo ʻene ngaahi tama kotoa pē mo ʻene ngaahi taʻahine ʻa honau ʻinasi.
5 And to Hannah he gave a portion one double for Hannah he loved and Yahweh he had closed womb her.
Ka naʻa ne ʻatu kia ʻAna ʻae vahe lahi he naʻe ʻofa ia kia ʻAna: ka kuo tāpuni hono manāva ʻe Sihova.
6 And she provoked her rival her also provocation in order to disconcert her for he had closed Yahweh behind womb her.
Pea naʻe fakamamahi lahi ia ʻe hono fili, ke ne lāunga, ko e meʻa ʻi he tāpuni hono manāva ʻe Sihova.
7 And thus he did a year in a year as often as went up she in [the] house of Yahweh thus she provoked her and she wept and not she ate.
Pea ʻi heʻene fai pehē pe ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē, naʻa ne ʻalu hake ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea loto mamahi ai ia; ko ia naʻe tangi ai ia, pea naʻe ʻikai kai.
8 And he said to her Elkanah husband her O Hannah why? do you weep and why? not are you eating and why? is sad heart your ¿ not [am] I good to you more than ten sons.
Pea pehē ai ʻe ʻElikena ko hono husepāniti kiate ia, “ʻAna ko e hā ʻoku ke tangi ai? Pea ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai te ke kai? Pea ko e hā ʻoku mamahi ai ho loto? ʻIkai ʻoku ou lelei hake kiate koe ʻi he tama ʻe hongofulu?”
9 And she arose Hannah after had eaten in Shiloh and after had drunk and Eli the priest [was] sitting on the seat at [the] doorpost of [the] temple of Yahweh.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa ʻAna hili ʻenau kai mo inu ʻi Sailo. Pea naʻe nofo ʻae taulaʻeiki ko Ilai ʻi he nofoʻa ofi ki he pou ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.
10 And she [was] bitter of soul and she prayed to Yahweh and utterly she wept.
Pea naʻe mamahi lahi hono laumālie, ʻo ne lotu kia Sihova, pea tangi lahi.
11 And she vowed a vow and she said O Yahweh of hosts certainly [if] you will look - on [the] affliction of maidservant your and you will remember me and not you will forget maidservant your and you will give to maidservant of your spring of men and I will give him to Yahweh all [the] days of life his and a razor not it will go up on head his.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae fuakava, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova ʻoe tokolahi, kapau ko e moʻoni te ke ʻafio mai ki he mamahi ʻa hoʻo kaunanga, ʻo manatuʻi au, ʻo ʻikai fakangaloʻi ʻa hoʻo kaunanga, ka ke foaki ki hoʻo kaunanga ʻae tama, pehē te u foaki ia kia Sihova ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻai ha tele ki hono ʻulu.”
12 And it was that she had increased to pray before Yahweh and Eli [was] watching mouth her.
Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene lotu maʻu pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, naʻe vakai ʻe Ilai ʻa hono loungutu.
13 And Hannah she [was] speaking to heart her only lips her [were] quivering and voice her not it was heard and he considered her Eli to a drunken [woman].
Ka naʻe lea ʻa ʻAna ʻi hono loto pea naʻe ngaue hono loungutu ka naʻe ʻikai ongoʻi hono leʻo: ko ia naʻe mahalo ai ʻe Ilai kuo konā ia.
14 And he said to her Eli until when? will you be drunk! remove wine your from with you.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Ilai kiate ia, “ʻE tuku ʻafē ʻa hoʻo konā? tukuange hoʻo uaine ʻiate koe.”
15 And she answered Hannah and she said no O lord my [am] a woman hard of spirit I and wine and strong drink not I have drunk and I have poured out soul my before Yahweh.
Pea naʻe leaange ʻa ʻAna ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai, ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ka ko e fefine loto mamahi au: naʻe ʻikai te u inu uaine pe ha inu mālohi, ka kuo u lilingi hoku laumālie ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
16 May not you give maidservant your before a daughter of worthlessness for from [the] greatness of complaint my and provocation my I have spoken until now.
‌ʻOua naʻa ke ui hoʻo kaunanga ko e ʻofefine ʻoe kovi: he kuo u lea pe ʻi he lahi ʻo ʻeku feinga mo ʻeku mamahi.”
17 And he answered Eli and he said go to peace and [the] God of Israel may he grant petition your which you have asked from with him.
Pea naʻe lea ai ʻa Ilai ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu fiemālie pē: pea ʻofa ke tuku kiate koe ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻae kole ʻaia kuo ke kole kiate ia.”
18 And she said may she find maidservant your favor in view your and she went the woman to way her and she ate and face her not they were to her still.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Tuku ke maʻu ʻe hoʻo kaunanga ʻae fiemālie ʻi ho ʻao.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae fefine ʻi hono hala, pea kai, pea naʻe ʻikai kei matapeko ia.
19 And they rose early in the morning and they bowed down before Yahweh and they returned and they went to house their Ramah towards and he knew Elkanah Hannah wife his and he remembered her Yahweh.
Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi, ʻo lotu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea ʻalu, ʻo hoko atu ki honau fale ʻi Lama: pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe ʻElikena ʻa hono uaifi; pea naʻe manatuʻi ia ʻe Sihova.
20 And it was to [the] circuit of the days and she conceived Hannah and she bore a son and she called name his Samuel for from Yahweh I asked for him.
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi māhina ʻoe feitama ʻa ʻAna, pea pehē, naʻe fāʻeleʻi ʻe ia ʻae tama, ʻo ne ui hono hingoa ko Samuela, ʻo pehē, “Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku kole ia meia Sihova.”
21 And he went up the man Elkanah and all household his to sacrifice to Yahweh [the] sacrifice of the days and vow his.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae tangata ko ʻElikena mo hono fale kotoa pē, ke ʻatu kia Sihova ʻae feilaulau ʻoe taʻu, mo ʻene fuakava.
22 And Hannah not she went up for she said to husband her until he will be weaned the lad and I will take him and he will appear with [the] presence of Yahweh and he will dwell there until perpetuity.
Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻalu ʻa ʻAna; he naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki hono husepāniti, “ʻE ʻikai te u ʻalu kaeʻoua ke mavae ʻae tamasiʻi, pea u toki ʻave ia, koeʻuhi ke fakahā ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea ke nofomaʻu ai ia ʻo taʻengata.
23 And he said to her Elkanah husband her do the good in view your remain until wean you him only may he carry out Yahweh word his and she remained the woman and she suckled son her until (had weaned she *LAH(b)*) him.
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe hono husepāniti ko ʻElikena kiate ia, “Ke ke fai ʻaia ʻoku lelei kiate koe; tatali ke ʻoua ke ke mavae ia; kae kehe ke fokotuʻumaʻu ʻe Sihova ʻene folofola.” Ko ia naʻe nofo ai ʻae fefine ʻo fakahuhu ʻene tama, pea toki fakamavae ia.
24 And she brought up him with her just when she had weaned him with young bulls three and an ephah one of flour and a skin of wine and she took him [the] house of Yahweh Shiloh and the lad [was] a lad.
Pea hili ʻa hono fakamavae ia, naʻa ne ʻave ia, pea mo e fanga pulu ʻe tolu, mo e efa ʻe taha ʻoe mahoaʻa, mo e hina uaine ʻe taha, ʻo ʻomi ia ki he fale ʻo Sihova ʻi Sailo: pea naʻe kei siʻi ʻae tama.
25 And they slaughtered the young bull and they brought the lad to Eli.
Pea naʻa na tāmateʻi ʻae pulu, pea ʻomi ʻae tamasiʻi kia Ilai.
26 And she said pardon me O lord my [by] [the] life of self your O lord my I [am] the woman who stood with you in this [place] to pray to Yahweh.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, hangē ʻoku moʻoni ʻa hoʻo moʻui, ʻe hoku ʻeiki, ko au ko e fefine naʻe tuʻu ofi kiate koe ʻi heni, ʻo lotu kia Sihova.
27 Concerning the lad this I prayed and he has granted Yahweh to me petition my which I asked from with him.
Naʻaku kole ʻae tamasiʻi ni; pea kuo tuku mai ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻeku kole ʻaia ne u fai kiate ia:
28 And also I I entrust him to Yahweh all the days which he has been he [is] asked by Yahweh and he bowed down there to Yahweh.
Ko ia foki ʻoku ou toe ʻatu ia kia Sihova; ʻe tuku ia kia Sihova ʻi heʻene moʻui kotoa pē.” Pea naʻe lotu ia kia Sihova ʻi ai.
