< 1 Samuel 2 >
1 Then Hannah prayed, saying, “I rejoice in [what] you, [, have done]. I am strong [MET] because I belong to you. I (laugh at/ridicule) my enemies, because you, Yahweh have rescued me [from being taunted by them].
Ha: na da Godema amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Gode da na dogo ganodini hahawane hou nabalesi dagoi. Na da Ea nama hamoi amoga hahawane bagadedafa gala. Na da na ha lai dunu amoba: le ousa. Gode da nama bagade fidibiba: le, na da hahawane bagade.
2 There is no one who is holy like you, Yahweh. There is no other god like you. There is no one like you, our God, who can protect us [as though you were putting us beneath] a huge rock [where we can hide from danger].
Dunu afae da Hina Gode Ea hadigi agoai da hamedafa gala, E agoai hamedafa gala. Ea ouligibi agoane enoga da hamedafa ouligisa.
3 [You people who oppose God], stop boasting! Yahweh is a God who knows [everything], and he will evaluate/judge everyone’s actions. So don’t speak so arrogantly!
Dilia ha: gi hidabe go yolema! Amola dilia hidale nodosu sia: yolesili ouiya: ma! Bai Hina Gode da liligi huluanedafa dawa: Amola E da dunu ilia hamoi huluane defele fofada: nana.
4 Yahweh, you break the bows/weapons of mighty soldiers, and you give strength to those who stumble [because of being weak].
Nimi bagade gegesu dunu ilia oulali da fili fasisa. Be asaboi dunu da bu gasa fisa.
5 Many people who previously had plenty to eat, now have to work for other people [to earn money] to buy food, but many who were always hungry are not hungry any more. The woman who did not have any children before, now has given birth to many/seven children, and the woman who had many children before, now is very lonely [because they have all died].
Ha: su hame dawa: dunu da bu ha: beba: le, ha: i manu lama: ne hawa: hamosa. Be ha: su dunu da bu hame ha: sa. Dunuga lai aligime uda da wali mano fesuale lalelegesa. Be mano galusulu uda ea mano huluane da hagia: sa.
6 Yahweh, you cause some people to die, and you restore some people who are almost dead. For some people, [it seems that they will soon] go to where the dead people are, but you cause them to become healthy again. (Sheol )
Hina Gode da fane legesa amola bu wa: lesisu dawa: E da dunu bogoi sogega asunasisa, amola amo bu sinidigima: ne oule maha. (Sheol )
7 Yahweh, you cause some people to be poor and you cause some people to be rich, you humble some people and you honor some people.
E da dunu oda liligi bagade gaguma: ne hamosa, amola oda mae gaguiwane esaloma: ne hamosa. E da oda fonobonesisa amola oda bagalesisa.
8 [Sometimes] you lift poor people up so that they are no longer [despondent, sitting in the dust, ] or sitting on heaps of ashes; you cause them to sit next to princes; you cause them to sit on chairs/thrones where people who are highly honored sit. Yahweh, you are the one who laid the foundations of the earth, and you have set the whole world on those foundations.
Hina Gode da hame gagui dunu gulu dabolei dialu, amo gaguia gadolesisa, amola sugui dunu ilia da: i dioi fisima: ne wa: legadolesisa. Ea hamobeba: le, sugui dunu da hina bagade ea mano amoma na: iyado agoane esala amola dunu eno da ilima nodone dawa: digisa. Osobo bagade ea baidafa da Hina Gode Ea: Amo da: iya E da osobo bagade hahamoi.
9 You will protect your loyal/faithful people [SYN], but you will cause the wicked to die [EUP] and descend to the dark [place where dead people are]. We do not defeat [our enemies] by our own strength;
Hina Gode da Ema molole fa: no bobogesu dunu ilia esalusu noga: le ouligisa. Be wadela: i hamosu dunu da gasi ganodini alalolesisa. Amaiba: le, dunu da hi gasaga hasalimusa: hame dawa:
10 Yahweh, you will break into pieces those who oppose you. You will cause thunder in the sky to show that you (oppose/are angry with) them. Yahweh, you will judge [people everywhere, even those who live in] the most remote places on the earth. You will give strength to the king whom you will appoint, and give him great power [over his enemies].”
Hina Gode da Ema ha lai dunu huluane wadela: lesimu. Ilia da Ea ougi sia: gugelebe bagade agoane Hebene gadodili dabe nabimu. Hina Gode da osobo bagade fi dunu huluane ilima fofada: mu. E da Ea hina bagade dunu ilima gasa imunu. E da Ea ilegei hina bagade amo hasalima: ne hamomu.”
11 Then Elkanah [and his family] returned to Ramah, but Samuel, the little boy, stayed to help Eli the priest serve Yahweh.
Amalalu, Elega: ina da La: ima moilaiga buhagi. Be goi Sa: miuele da Siailou moilaiga esalu. E da Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu, amola gobele salasu dunu Ilai da e ouligisu.
12 Eli’s two [, who were also priests, ] were very wicked. They did not revere (OR, respect/obey) Yahweh.
Ilai egefela da wadela: i hamosu dunu. Elea da Hina Gode Ea sia: hamedafa nabasu.
13 While the people were boiling the meat from their sacrifices [in the huge pot at the temple], one of Eli’s sons, [would send his servant to come with a large three-pronged fork in his hand].
14 [He] would stick the fork into [the meat in] the pot, and whatever meat fastened onto the fork, he would take [and give it] to the priest who sent him. Eli’s sons did this to all the Israeli people who came to Shiloh [to offer sacrifices].
Amola sema gobele salasu dunu ilia enoma edegemusa: hamoi, elea da amoma hame fa: no bobogesu. Be amomane dunu da ilia Godema iasu gobele salaloba, amo gebo hu da ladalea, gobele salasu dunu ea hawa: hamosu ilia da misini ofodo gelaba gobei amo da gelaboga guili nasuga gadufili lale, gobele salasu dunu ilia fawane da amo nasu. Isala: ili dunu huluane da Siailou moilaiga gobele salasu ima: ne masu, da amo udigili wamolale nasu hou ba: i.
15 Furthermore, before the fat [on the meat] was [cut off and] and burned [as a sacrifice to Yahweh], the servant of the priest would [sometimes] come to the man who was making the sacrifice and say to him, “Give me some meat [now to take] to the priest for him to roast! He wants raw meat; he does not want boiled meat.”
Amola, hamoma: ne sia: i eno gala da gobele salasu ohe ea sefe ofene fasili, laluma gobesisu. Be amo hamoma: ne sia: i mae dawa: le, gobele salasu hawa: hamosu dunu ela da Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: su, “Gobele salasu dunu da hu gahe hi houma: ne, nama ima. E da sosobenega gobei higamu.”
16 If the man said to the servant, “Let the priests [cut off and] burn the fat first; then you can take what you want,” the servant would reply, “No, give it to me now; if you do not give it to me, I will take it forcefully!”
Be dunu da dabe bu adole iasea, “Ninia da sema defele, sefe hidadea suli sa: ima: ma, amasea fa: no dia hanai lama!” Be gobele salasu ea hawa: hamosu dunu elea amane sia: su, “Abola! Wahadafa nama ima! Dia amane hame hamosea, na da ni gasa fili logele samogemu.”
17 Yahweh considered that the young [sons of Eli] were committing a very great sin, because they were treating very disrespectfully the offerings that were being given to Yahweh.
Goe Ilai egefela wadela: i hou hamosu amo Hina Gode da bagadewane higale ba: i. Bai elea da Hina Godema iasu liligi amo da bai hameyale dawa: beba: le, gugunufinisisu.
18 As for Samuel, who was still a very young boy, he continued to do work for Yahweh, wearing a little sacred linen vest [like the Supreme Priest wore].
Wahamusu goihadi Sa: miuele da sema mida: gisa: gisu abula salawane, Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamonanu.
19 Each year his mother made a [new] little robe for him and took it to him when she went up [to Shiloh] with her husband to offer a sacrifice.
Ode huluane ea: me Ha: na da abula fonobahadi amunanu, amola egoala Godema odegamusu gobele sala ahoabe, amoga abula eagofe Sa: miuelegili gaguli ahoasu.
20 Then Eli would [ask God to] bless Elkanah and his wife, and he would say to Elkanah, “I hope/desire that Yahweh will enable your wife to give birth to other children, to take the place of the one whom she dedicated to Yahweh.” Then Elkanah and his family would return home.
Amalalu, Ilai da Elega: ina amola iduama Gode Ea Dioba: le nodoma: ne sia: su, amola Elega: inama amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da di amola dia uda alima mano alia Godema i, amo ea sogebi lama: ne, mano eno imunu da defea.” Amalalu Elega: ina amola Ha: nala da ela diasuga bu ahoasu.
21 And Yahweh was very kind to Hannah, and enabled her to give birth to three [other] sons and two daughters. Their son Samuel grew up while he was doing work for Yahweh [in the Sacred Tent].
Hina Gode da Ha: na hahawane dogolegele fidibiba: le, e da dunu mano udiana amola uda mano aduna eno lalelegei. Goihadi Sa: miuele da Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamonana asigilai.
22 Eli became very old. He often heard about all the [evil] things that his sons were doing to the Israeli people. He heard that they [sometimes] (slept with/had sex with) the women who worked at the entrance to the tent where [God] spoke to [his people].
Ilai da da: i hamone esalu. E da eso huluane ea mano elea Isala: ili dunuma wadela: le hamobe nabalusu. Elea da uda da Hina Gode Ea abula diasu logo holeiga hawa: hamonanu, amo amola gilisili golale, adole lasu.
23 He said to them, “(It is terrible that you do such things!/Why do you do such things?) [RHQ] Many people keep telling me about the evil things that you do.
Amaiba: le, Ilai da ea mano elama amane sia: i, “Abuliba: le alia da wadela: i hou agoane hamosala: ? Dunu huluane ilia da wadela: i hou alia hamobego huluane nama alofele iaha.
24 My sons, stop it! The reports [about you] that the people who belong to Yahweh tell others are terrible [EUP]!
Ada alia: ! Go yolesima! Amo hou Hina Gode Ea fi dunu da sia: sia: dalebe da wadela: idafa.
25 If one person sins against another person, God can (intercede/act as a referee) between them. But if someone sins against Yahweh, no one can [RHQ] (intercede/act as a referee) between them!” But Eli’s sons would not listen to what their father said. This was because Yahweh had decided [that someone should] them.
Dunu da dunu enoma wadela: le hamosea, Gode da amo dunu gaga: musa: dawa: Be dunu da Hina Godema wadela: le hamosea, nowa da gaga: ma: bela: ?” Be Ilai ea mano elea da eda sia: hame nabasu. Bai Hina Gode da ele fane legemusa: ilegei dagoi.
26 The boy Samuel continued to grow up, and the things that he did pleased Yahweh and the people.
Be goihadi Sa: miuele da Hina Godema amola dunu enoma hahawane asaboiwane asigilalu.
27 One day, a prophet came to Eli and told him, “This is what Yahweh has told me: ‘When your ancestors were slaves of the king of Egypt, I appeared to Aaron.
Balofede dunu (Gode Sia: Alofesu dunu) da Ilaima Hina Gode Ea adole iasu amane olelei, “Musa: dia aowa Elane amola ea sosogo fi ilia Idibidi hina bagade ea udigili hawa: hamonanoba, Na da Elanema Na hou olelei.
28 From all the tribes of the Israeli people, I chose him [and his male descendants] to be priests for me. I appointed them to go up to my altar, to burn incense, to wear a sacred apron [as they worked] for me. And I declared that they could take [and eat some of the meat] that the Israeli people burned [on the altar].
Na da Isala: ili fi ili huluane ba: lalu, Elane ea fi fawane ilia oloda hawa: hamoma: ne, amola gabusiga: manoma ulagima: ne, amola Na hanai dawa: ma: ne Ifode (Bidegi Ga: su) salima: ne, ea fi ilegei. Amola ilia da oloda gobele salasu ha: i manu la: idi lale manusa: , Na da logo doasi dagoi.
29 So why do you show disrespect for the sacrifices and offerings that I commanded [the people to bring] to me [RHQ]? You are honoring your sons more than you are honoring me, by allowing them to get fat from eating the best parts of all the sacrifices that the Israeli people bring to me!’
Na da Na fi ilima ilia Nama gobele salasu amola udigili iasu ima: ne sia: i. Abuliba: le di da dia manoma nodone dawa: lala, be Nama hame dawa: sala: ? Bai ela da ela musu alema: ne, gobele salasu amo Na fi da Nama iaha, amoga hedesi ida: iwane fawane lale naha, amo di da elea logo hame hedofasa.
30 “Therefore, this is what Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], declares: ‘I definitely promised that Aaron and his descendants would continue to serve [IDM] me forever.’ But now I declare this: ‘It will not continue like that! I will honor those who honor me, but I will despise those who despise me.
Na da Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Gode! Na da musa: dia sosogo amola dia fidafa da eso huluane Na gobele salasu hawa: hamonanumu ilegei dagoi. Be Na da waha agoane sia: sa, dia Nama gobele salabe bu hame hamomu. Be wali nowa da Nama nodone dawa: digisia, Na da amo dunuma nodone dawa: digimu. Amola nowa da Na higasea, Na da higamu.
31 Listen carefully! There will soon be a time when I will cause all the strong [young men] in your family to die. The result will be that no men in your family will [live long enough to] become old men.
Nabima! Na da dia sosogo fi amola dia fidafa amo ganodini goimusu fane lelegemu eso da gadenesa. Amasea, dia fi ganodini dunu afae da esala hame da: i hamomu.
32 You will be distressed and envious as you see the blessings that I will give to [the other people in] Israel. And [I repeat that] no men in your family will ever live long enough to become old men.
Amola di da da: i diomu, amola Na da Isala: ili fi dunu eno amo Na fidibi ba: sea, di da mudabe ba: mu. Be dia fi amo ganodini dunu afaega da esala hame da: i hamomu.
33 There is one of your descendants whom I will spare, and not prevent him from serving me as a priest. But he will become blind, and then he will always be sad and grieving. But all your other descendants will die violently.
Be amomane Na da digaga afadafa esaloma: mu, amalu e da Nama gobele salasu dunu esaloma: mu. Be amomane e da si wadela: le amola baligiliwane da: i diomu. Amola dia sosogo fi huluane da se bagade nabawane bogogia: mu.
34 And your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, will both die on the same day. And that will prove to you [that all that I have said will come true/happen].
Dia mano aduna amo Hofenai amola Finia: se ela da ele galu eso afaega bogomu. Amasea, dia da Na sia: i amo da dafawane galebeya dawa: mu.
35 ‘have chosen another man to be my priest. He is one who will serve me faithfully: He will do everything I want [DOU] him to do. And I will enable him to have many descendants [IDM] who will be priests and will always serve me by helping the king whom I will choose.
Na da gobele salasu dunu afae ilegemu. E da eso huluane Nama molole fa: no bobogemu amola Na hanai huluane hamomu. Na da ema egaga fi imunu. Ilia da Na ilegei hina bagade ema noga: le hawa: hamomu.
36 All of your descendants who remain alive will have to go to that priest and ask him to give them money and food, and they will each have to say, “Please allow me to help the other priests, in order that I may [earn some money to] buy some food.”’”
Amola digaga fi dunu hame bogoi esala, da amo gobele salasu dunuma muni amola ha: i manu edegemusa: masunu. Amola ilia da ha: i manu lama: ne, gobele salasu dunuma fidima: ne, ha: giwane adole ba: mu.
