1 Samuel 3
1 The child Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. The LORD’s word was rare in those days. There were not many visions, then.
Un tas jauneklis Samuēls kalpoja Tam Kungam Elus priekšā, un Tā Kunga vārds bija dārgs tanī laikā, un parādīšanas notika reti.
2 At that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see),
Un notikās tai laikā, kad Elus savā vietā gulēja, (un viņa acis jau sāka tumšas mesties, ka tas nevarēja redzēt),
3 and God’s lamp hadn’t yet gone out, and Samuel had laid down in the LORD’s temple where God’s ark was,
Un tas Dieva lukturis vēl nebija izdzisis, un Samuēls gulēja Tā Kunga namā, kur Dieva šķirsts bija.
4 The LORD called Samuel. He said, “Here I am.”
Tad Tas Kungs Samuēli sauca, un šis sacīja: redzi, še es esmu,
5 He ran to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He said, “I didn’t call. Lie down again.” He went and lay down.
Un skrēja pie Elus un sacīja: redzi, še es esmu, jo tu mani esi saucis. Un viņš sacīja: es tevi neesmu saucis, ej atkal gulēt. Un tas gāja un apgūlās.
6 The LORD called yet again, “Samuel!” Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He answered, “I didn’t call, my son. Lie down again.”
Tad Tas Kungs Samuēli atkal sauca. Un Samuēls cēlās un gāja pie Elus un sacīja: redzi, še es esmu, jo tu mani esi saucis. Viņš sacīja: es tevi neesmu saucis, mans dēls, ej atkal gulēt.
7 Now Samuel didn’t yet know the LORD, neither was the LORD’s word yet revealed to him.
Bet Samuēls vēl nepazina To Kungu un Tā Kunga vārds tam vēl nebija parādīts.
8 The LORD called Samuel again the third time. He arose and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.
Tad Tas Kungs Samuēli atkal sauca trešu lāgu. Un tas cēlās un gāja pie Elus un sacīja: redzi, še es esmu, tu mani esi saucis. Tad Elus noprata, ka Tas Kungs to jaunekli sauca.
9 Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “Go, lie down. It shall be, if he calls you, that you shall say, ‘Speak, LORD; for your servant hears.’” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
Un Elus sacīja uz Samuēli: ej gulēt, un kad tevi sauks, tad saki: runā Kungs, jo Tavs kalps klausās. Un Samuēls gāja un apgūlās savā vietā.
10 The LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, “Samuel! Samuel!” Then Samuel said, “Speak; for your servant hears.”
Tad Tas Kungs nāca un nostājās un sauca kā papriekš: Samuēl, Samuēl! Un Samuēls sacīja: runā, jo Tavs kalps klausās.
11 The LORD said to Samuel, “Behold, I will do a thing in Israel at which both the ears of everyone who hears it will tingle.
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Samuēli: redzi, Es ko darīšu iekš Israēla, ka visiem, kas to dzirdēs, abās ausīs skanēs.
12 In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even to the end.
Tanī dienā Es pret Elu visu izdarīšu, ko pret viņa namu esmu runājis: Es to sākšu un arī pabeigšu.
13 For I have told him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knew, because his sons brought a curse on themselves, and he didn’t restrain them.
Jo Es tam esmu ziņu devis, ka Es soģis būšu pār viņa namu mūžīgi tā nozieguma dēļ, ka viņš zinājis, kā viņa bērni sev lāstus krājās, un tiem to nav liedzis.
14 Therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli’s house shall not be removed with sacrifice or offering forever.”
Un tādēļ Es Elus namam esmu zvērējis, ka Elus nama noziegums nemūžam netaps salīdzināts ne caur kaujamiem, ne caur ēdamiem upuriem.
15 Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the LORD’s house. Samuel was afraid to show Eli the vision.
Un Samuēls gulēja līdz rītam, un tad viņš atvēra Tā Kunga nama durvis, bet Samuēls bijās šo parādīšanu Elum stāstīt.
16 Then Eli called Samuel and said, “Samuel, my son!” He said, “Here I am.”
Tad Elus Samuēli aicināja un sacīja: Samuēl, mans dēls. Un tas atbildēja: redzi, še es esmu.
17 He said, “What is the thing that he has spoken to you? Please don’t hide it from me. God do so to you, and more also, if you hide anything from me of all the things that he spoke to you.”
Un viņš sacīja: kas tas par vārdu, ko Viņš uz tevi runājis? Neslēp jel to man; lai Dievs tev šā un tā dara, ja tu man vienu vārdu apslēpsi no visiem, ko Viņš uz tevi runājis.
18 Samuel told him every bit, and hid nothing from him. He said, “It is the LORD. Let him do what seems good to him.”
Tad Samuēls tam stāstīja visus tos vārdus un tam nekā neapslēpa. Un tas sacīja: Viņš ir Tas Kungs, lai Viņš dara, ko Viņš pats redz labu esam.
19 Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground.
Un Samuēls uzauga, un Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, un Viņš nevienam no Saviem vārdiem nelika zemē krist.
20 All Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.
Un viss Israēls no Dana līdz Bēršebai atzina, ka Samuēls bija Tā Kunga uzticīgais pravietis.
21 The LORD appeared again in Shiloh; for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the LORD’s word.
Un Tas Kungs vēl parādījās Šīlo, jo Tas Kungs parādījās Samuēlim Šīlo caur Tā Kunga vārdu.
