< 1 Samuel 1 >
1 `A man was of `Ramathym of Sophym, of the hil of Effraym, and his name was Elchana, the sone of Jeroboam, sone of Elyud, sone of Thau, sone of Suph, of Effraym.
Alò te genyen yon sèten mesye ki te soti nan Ramathaïm-Tsophim nan peyi ti kolin Éphraïm yo, non li se te Elkana, fis a Jeroham la, fis a Élihu a, fis a Thohu, fis a Tsuph, Efratyen an.
2 And Helchana hadde twei wyues; the name `to oon was Anna, and the `name of the secounde was Fenenna; and sones weren to Feuenna; forsothe fre children `weren not to Anna.
Li te gen de madanm: youn te rele Anne e lòt la te Peninna. Peninna te fè pitit, men Anne pa t fè pitit.
3 And thilke man styede fro his citee in daies ordeyned, to worschipe and offre sacrifice to the Lord of oostis in Silo. Forsothe twei sones of Heli weren there, Ophym and Fynees, preestis of the Lord.
Alò, mesye sa a te konn monte soti nan vil li a chak ane pou adore ak fè sakrifis a SENYÈ dèzame yo nan Silo. Epi de fis Éli yo, Hophni avèk Phinées te prèt SENYÈ a nan kote sa a.
4 Therfor the dai cam, and Helcana offride, and yaf partis to Fenenna, his wijf, and to alle hise sones and douytris;
Lè jou a te vini pou Elkana te fè sakrifis yo, li ta bay yon pòsyon a Peninna, madanm li an e a tout fis li yo avèk fi li yo.
5 forsothe he yaf soreufuly o part to Anna, for he louyde Anna; forsothe the Lord hadde closid hir wombe.
Men a Anne, li ta bay yon pòsyon doub, paske li te renmen Anne; men SENYÈ a te fèmen vant li.
6 And hir enemy turmentide `hir, and angwischide greetly, in so myche that sche vpbreidide, that the Lord hadde closid hir wombe.
Men lòt madanm nan avèk kè anmè te konn chache pwovoke l pou fè l fache akoz SENYÈ a te fèmen vant li.
7 And so sche dide `bi alle yeeris, whanne `in tyme comynge ayen, thei stieden in to the hows of the Lord; and so sche terride Anna. Forsothe Anna wepte, and took not mete.
Li te rive ane aprè ane, otan ke li te monte vè lakay SENYÈ a, li ta pwovoke li. Konsa, li te kriye e li te vin refize manje.
8 Therfor Helcana, hir hosebonde, seide to hir, Anna, whi wepist thou, and whi etist thou not, and whi is thin herte turmentid? Whether Y am not betere to thee than ben ten sones?
Epi Elkana te di li: “Anne, poukisa ou kriye konsa? Poukisa ou pa manje e poukisa kè ou tris? Éske mwen pa pi bon pase dis fis?”
9 `Sotheli Anna roos, aftir that sche hadde ete and drunke in Silo. `And the while Hely was on his greet seete, bifor the postis of the `hows of the Lord,
Konsa, Anne te leve lè l te fin manje ak bwè nan Silo. Alò Éli, prèt la, te chita sou chèz akote poto pòt tanp SENYÈ a.
10 whanne Anna was in bittere soule, sche preyede the Lord, and wepte largeli;
Anne te twouble anpil. Li te priye a SENYÈ a e te kriye byen anmè.
11 and made a vow, and seide, Lord God of oostis, if thou biholdist, and seest the turment of thi seruauntesse, and hast mynde of me, and foryetis not thin handmayde, and yyuest to thi seruauntesse `a male kynde, Y schal yyue hym to the Lord in alle daies of his lijf, and a rasour schal not stie on his heed.
Li te fè yon ve; li te di: “O SENYÈ dèzame, si Ou va vrèman gade afliksyon sèvant Ou an e sonje mwen an, sonje mwen e pa bliye sèvant Ou an, men konsa Ou va bay sèvant Ou an yon fis, epi mwen va bay li a SENYÈ a pou tout jou lavi li yo, e yon razwa p ap janm touche tèt li.”
12 Forsothe it was doon, whanne sche multipliede preieris bifor the Lord, that Ely aspiede hir mouth.
Alò, li te vin rive ke pandan li t ap priye devan SENYÈ a, Éli t ap gade bouch li.
13 Forsothe Anna spak in hir herte, and oneli hir lippis weren mouyd, and outerly hir vois was not herd. Therfor Hely gesside hir drunkun,
Selon Anne, li t ap priye nan kè l, men se sèl lèv li ki t ap mache, e vwa li pa t fè bwi. Konsa, Éli te sipoze ke li te sou.
14 and he seide to hyr, Hou longe schalt thou be drunkun? Difye thou a litil the wyn, `bi which thou art moist.
Alò Éli te di li: “Pou konbyen de tan ou va rete sou konsa? Mete diven sa a lwen ou.”
15 Anna answeride, and seide, Nay, my lord, for Y am `a wretchid womman greetli; Y `drank not wyn `and al thing that may make drunkun, but Y schedde out my soule in the `siyt of the Lord;
Men Anne te reponn: “Non, mèt mwen! Mwen se yon fanm oprime nan lespri. Mwen pa t bwè diven, ni bwason fò, men mwen t ap debarase nanm mwen devan SENYÈ a.
16 gesse thou not thin handmaide as oon of the douytris of Belyal, for of the multitude of my sorewe and morenyng Y spak `til in to present tyme.
Pa konsidere sèvant ou kòm yon fanm san valè; paske jis koulye a, mwen te pale akoz gran doulè avèk chagren mwen.”
17 Thanne Hely seide to hir, Go thou in pees, and God of Israel yyue to thee the axyng which thou preiedist hym.
Alò, Éli te reponn e te di: “Ale anpè. Epi ke Bondye Israël la kapab ba ou sa ou mande L la.”
18 And sche seide, `Y wolde that thin hondmayde fynde grace in thin iyen. And the womman yede in to hir weie, and eet; and hir cheris weren no more chaungid dyuersly.
Anne te reponn: “Ke sèvant ou twouve favè nan zye ou.” Konsa, fanm nan te al fè wout li. Li te vin manje e figi li pa t tris ankò.
19 And `thei ryseden eerly, and worschipiden bifore the Lord; and thei turneden ayen, and camen in to hir hows in Ramatha. Forsothe Helchana knew fleischli Anna, his wijf; and the Lord thouyte on hir.
Alò, yo te leve granmmaten pou te adore SENYÈ a, epi te retounen lakay yo nan Rama. Konsa, Elkana te antre an relasyon avèk Anne, madanm li an, e SENYÈ a te sonje li.
20 And it was doon after the cumpas of daies, Anna conseyuede, and childide a sone, and sche clepide his name Samuel; for sche hadde axid hym of the Lord.
Li te vin rive nan pwòp lè li, apre Anne te vin ansent lan, ke li te bay nesans a yon gason. Epi li te bay li non Samuel. Li te di: “Akòz mwen te mande SENYÈ a pou li.”
21 Forsothe hir hosebonde Helcana stiede, and al his hows, to offre a solempne sacrifice, and his avow to the Lord.
Nom nan, Elkana te monte avèk tout lakay li pou fè ofrann sakrifis bay SENYÈ a ak pou peye ve li a.
22 And Anna stiede not, for sche hadde seid to hir hosebonde, Y schal not go, til the yonge child be wenyd, and til Y lede hym, and he appere bifor the `siyt of the Lord, and dwelle there contynueli.
Men Anne pa t monte, paske li te di a mari li: “Mwen p ap monte jiskaske pitit la sevre. Epi mwen va pote li pou l kapab parèt devan SENYÈ a pou l rete la nèt.”
23 And Helcana, hir hosebonde, seide to hir, Do thou that that semeth good to thee, and dwelle thou til thou wene hym; and Y biseche, that the Lord fille his word. Therfor the womman dwellide, and yaf mylk to hir sone, til sche remouyde hym fro mylk.
Elkana, mari li te di li: “Fè sa ki sanble bon a ou menm. Rete jiskaske ou sevre li; sèlman ke SENYÈ a kapab acheve pawòl li.” Konsa, fanm nan te rete pran swen pitit la jiskaske li te vin sevre.
24 And sche brouyte hym with hir, aftir that sche hadde wened hym, with thre caluys, and thre buyschelis of mele, and amfore, `ether a pot, of wyn; and sche brouyte hym to the hows of the Lord in Silo. Forsothe the child was yit ful yonge.
Alò, lè li te fin sevre li, li te pran li monte avè l ansanm avèk yon towo twazan, yon efa farin, ak yon boutèy diven. Li te mennen li lakay a SENYÈ a nan Silo, malgre pitit la te tèlman piti.
25 And thei sacrifieden a calf, and thei offriden the child to Hely.
Konsa, yo te touye towo a e te mennen gason an bay Éli.
26 And Anna seide, My lord, Y biseche, that is, that this child be thi `disciple and seruaunt, thi soule lyueth; Y am that womman, that stood bifor thee here, and preiede the Lord;
Anne te di: “O mèt mwen! Tankou nanm ou viv la, mèt mwen, mwen se fanm ki te kanpe la bò kote ou a, ki t ap priye a SENYÈ a.
27 for this child Y preiede, and the Lord yaf to me myn axyng which Y axide hym;
Se pou gason sila a ke m te priye a, e SENYÈ a te ban mwen demand ke m te fè Li a.
28 therfor Y haue youe hym to the Lord `in alle daies, in whiche he is youun to the Lord. And thei worschypiden there the Lord.
Konsa, mwen te konsakre li bay SENYÈ a. Pou tout tan ke li ta viv li konsakre a SENYÈ a.” Konsa, Samuel te adore SENYÈ a la sou plas.
