1 Samuel 3
1 [While he was still a] boy, Samuel was working for Yahweh while Eli supervised him. At that time there were very few messages [that anyone received] from Yahweh, and very few people saw visions [that Yahweh gave them].
Oo yarkii Samuu'eel ahaana wuxuu Rabbiga uga adeegi jiray Ceelii hortiisa. Oo wakhtigaasna erayga Rabbigu wax aan marar badan la helin buu ahaa, oo muuqasho bayaan ahna lama muujin.
2 By that time Eli’s eyes were very weak; he was almost blind. [One night] he was sleeping in his room,
Oo wakhtigaas markii Ceelii jiifsaday meeshiisii, (haddaba indhihiisii way arag darnaayeen oo waxba ma uu arki karin)
3 and Samuel was sleeping in the sacred tent, where the chest that contained the Ten Commandments was kept. While the sacred lamp was still burning,
oo laambaddii Ilaahna aan weli la demin, oo Samuu'eelna jiifsaday macbudkii Rabbiga, kaasoo ah meeshii sanduuqa Ilaah yiil,
4 Yahweh called, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel replied, “I’m here!”
ayaa Rabbigu Samuu'eel u yeedhay, oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan.
5 Then he [got up and] ran to Eli. He said to him, “I am here, because you called me!” But Eli replied, “No, I did not call you. Go back to your bed.” So Samuel went and lay down again.
Markaasuu Ceelii ku orday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa i kan, waayo, waad ii yeedhay. Kolkaasuu yidhi, Anigu kuuma aan yeedhin, ee iska jiifso. Markaasuu tegey oo jiifsaday.
6 Then Yahweh called again, “Samuel!” So Samuel got up again and went to Eli and said, “I am here, because you called me!” But Eli said, “No, my son, I did not call you. Go back and lie down.”
Markaasaa Rabbigu haddana u yeedhay oo yidhi, Samuu'eelow. Kolkaasaa Samuu'eel kacay oo Ceelii u tegey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa i kan, waayo, waad ii yeedhay. Oo isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Wiilkaygiiyow, kuuma aan yeedhin ee iska jiifso.
7 At that time Samuel did not yet know [that] Yahweh [could speak to him], because Yahweh had not previously revealed anything to him.
Haddaba Samuu'eel weli ma uu aqoon Rabbiga, oo welina erayga Rabbiga looma muujin isaga.
8 [After Samuel lay down again], Yahweh called him a third time. So again Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, “I am here, because you called me!” Then Eli realized that it was Yahweh who was calling the boy.
Oo haddana Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel u yeedhay mar saddexaad. Oo isna wuu kacay oo u tegey Ceelii, wuxuuna ku yidhi, Waa i kan; waayo, waad ii yeedhay. Oo Ceeliina markaasuu gartay in Rabbigu u yeedhay yarka.
9 So he said to Samuel, “Go and lie down again. If someone calls you again, say ‘Speak to me, Yahweh, because I am listening!’” So Samuel went and lay down again.
Sidaas daraaddeed Ceelii wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Tag oo iska jiifso, oo waxay ahaan doontaa, hadduu kuu yeedho inaad ku tidhaahdid, Rabbiyow ila hadal, waayo anoo addoonkaaga ah waan ku maqlayaaye. Sidaas aawadeed Samuu'eel waa tegey oo meeshiisuu jiifsaday.
10 Then Yahweh came and stood there and called as he had done the other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” Then Samuel said, “Speak to me, because I am listening!”
Markaasaa Rabbigu u yimid, oo ag istaagay, oo sidii mararkii kale ayuu u yeedhay oo ku yidhi, Samuu'eelow, Samuu'eelow. Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu yidhi, Ila hadal, waayo, anoo addoonkaaga ah waan ku maqlayaaye.
11 Then Yahweh said to Samuel, “Listen carefully. I am about to do something here in Israel that will shock/horrify [IDM] everyone who hears about it.
Markaasaa Rabbigu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan reer binu Israa'iil ku dhex samaynayaa wax ku alla kii maqlaaba uu ka nixi doono.
12 When that happens, I will punish Eli and his family. I will do to them everything that I said that I would do.
Oo maalintaas waxaan Ceelii ku samayn doonaa kulli wixii aan reerkiisa kaga hadlay oo dhan, ilaa bilowgii iyo xataa dhammaadka.
13 His sons have shown great disrespect for me by the disgraceful things they have done, and Eli did not restrain them. So I told him that I would punish his family forever.
Waayo, waxaan isaga u sheegay inaan reerkiisa weligiis u xukumayo dembigii uu ogaa, maxaa yeelay, wiilashiisii inkaar bay isku rideen, oo isna kama uu joojin iyagii.
14 I solemnly promised to Eli’s family, ‘You will never be able to avoid the consequences for your sin, even if you give me sacrifices or offerings.’”
Sidaas daraaddeed waxaan reerka Ceelii ugu dhaartay inaan reerka Ceelii weligiis dembigiisa lagu nadiifin doonin allabari amase qurbaan.
15 Samuel lay down again until morning. Then he got up and opened the doors of the Sacred Tent [as usual]. He was afraid to tell Eli about the vision [that Yahweh had given him].
Markaasaa Samuu'eel iska jiifsaday ilaa subaxdii, oo dabadeedna wuxuu furay gurigii Rabbiga albaabbadiisii. Oo Samuu'eelna waa ka cabsaday inuu Ceelii muujintii u sheego.
16 But Eli called him and said, “Samuel, my son!” Samuel answered, “I am here!”
Markaasaa Ceelii Samuu'eel u yeedhay, oo ku yidhi, Wiilkaygii Samuu'eelow, oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan.
17 Eli asked him, “What was it that Yahweh told you? Do not conceal it! I want God to punish you severely if you do not tell me everything that he said to you.”
Markaasuu ku yidhi, Waxa Rabbigu kuu sheegay waa maxay? Waan ku baryayaaye, ha iga qarin. Ilaah ha kugu sameeyo waxaas iyo wax ka sii daranba, haddii aad iga qarisid innaba wixii uu kuu sheegay oo dhan.
18 So Samuel told him everything. He did not refuse to tell him anything. Then Eli said, “He is Yahweh. I am willing for him to do what he thinks is best.”
Oo Samuu'eelna wuu u sheegay wax kasta, oo waxba kama uu qarin innaba. Markaasuu yidhi, Isagu waa Rabbiga, ee ha sameeyo wixii la wanaagsan isaga.
19 As Samuel grew up, Yahweh helped him, and caused everything to (come true/happen) that Samuel predicted.
Oo Samuu'eelna wuu koray, Rabbiguna waa la jiray isaga, oo uma oggolaan in erayadiisii midna dhulka ku dhaco.
20 So all the people of Israel, from the northern end of the country to the southern end, realized that Samuel was truly a prophet of Yahweh.
Oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna tan iyo Daan iyo ilaa Bi'ir Shebac way wada ogaayeen in Samuu'eel loo adkeeyey inuu ahaado Rabbiga nebigiis.
21 Yahweh continued to appear to Samuel in Shiloh and give messages to him.
Oo Rabbigu haddana mar kale ayuu ka muuqday Shiiloh, waayo, Rabbiga ayaa eraygiisii isugu muujiyey Samuu'eel oo Shiiloh jooga.
