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.
Esiae nye Elkana, ŋutsu aɖe si nye Efraimtɔ eye wònɔ Ramataim Zofim le Efraim ƒe to la dzi ƒe ŋutinya. Fofoae nye Yeroham, ame si fofoe nye Elihu, ame si fofoe nye Tohu eye Tohu fofoe nye Zuf ame siwo nye Efraimtɔwo.
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.
Srɔ̃ eve nɔ Elkana si, ame siwo nye Hana kple Penina. Viwo nɔ Penina si ke Hana ya medzi vi o.
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.
Elkana kple srɔ̃awo kple wo viwo zɔa mɔ ƒe sia ƒe yia Yehowa ƒe agbadɔ la me le Silo be woasubɔ Yehowa, ŋusẽkatãtɔ la, eye woasa vɔ nɛ. Yehowa ƒe nunɔla siwo nɔ subɔsubɔdɔwo wɔm ɣe ma ɣi woe nye Eli kple via eveawo; Hofni kple Finehas.
4 Therfor the dai cam, and Helcana offride, and yaf partis to Fenenna, his wijf, and to alle hise sones and douytris;
Ne ɣeyiɣi de be Elkana nasa vɔ la, aka vɔsalã la ƒe ɖe na srɔ̃a Penina kple via ŋutsuwo kple via nyɔnuwo katã.
5 forsothe he yaf soreufuly o part to Anna, for he louyde Anna; forsothe the Lord hadde closid hir wombe.
Ke enaa lã la ƒe akpa eve Hana ya elabena togbɔ be elɔ̃e hã la Yehowa tu eƒe vidzidɔ.
6 And hir enemy turmentide `hir, and angwischide greetly, in so myche that sche vpbreidide, that the Lord hadde closid hir wombe.
Esi wònye be Yehowa tu eƒe vidzidɔ ta la, atsusia nɔa dzigbãnyawo gblɔm ɖe eŋu be ne wòado dziku.
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.
Esia yia dzi ƒe sia ƒe. Nenye be Hana yi ɖe Yehowa ƒe aƒe me la, atsusia gblɔa nya doa dziku nɛ va se ɖe esime wòwoa avi eye wògbea nuɖuɖu.
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?
Srɔ̃a Elkana bianɛ be, “Hana, nya kae na nèle avi fam? Nu ka ŋuti nègbe nuɖuɖu? Nu ka ŋuti nèle nu xam ale? Ɖe nyamewu viŋutsu ewo na wò oa?”
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,
Gbe ɖeka le Silo, esi woɖu nu, no nu vɔ la, Hana yi Agbadɔ la me, nunɔla Eli nɔ anyi ɖe eƒe teƒe le Yehowa ƒe Agbadɔ la ƒe mɔnu.
10 whanne Anna was in bittere soule, sche preyede the Lord, and wepte largeli;
Hana nɔ nu xam vevie, nɔ avi fam le esime wònɔ gbe dom ɖa na Yehowa
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.
eye wòɖe adzɔgbe na Yehowa be, “O Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ, ne àkpɔ wò dɔla ƒe nublanuitɔnyenye dzi ɖa, aɖo ŋku dzinye eye màŋlɔ wò dɔla be o, ke boŋ nànae viŋutsu la, ekema matsɔe na Yehowa le eƒe agbemeŋkekewo katã me eye talũhɛ maka eƒe ta ŋu o.”
12 Forsothe it was doon, whanne sche multipliede preieris bifor the Lord, that Ely aspiede hir mouth.
Esime Hana nɔ gbe dom ɖa na Yehowa la, Eli nɔ ŋku lém ɖe eƒe nuyiwo ŋu.
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,
Hana do gbea ɖa le eƒe dzi me, eƒe nuyiwo nɔ ʋaʋãm butubutu gake eƒe gbe meɖi wose o, eya ta Eli bu be ahae wòmu.
14 and he seide to hyr, Hou longe schalt thou be drunkun? Difye thou a litil the wyn, `bi which thou art moist.
Ale Eli biae be, “Va se ɖe ɣe ka ɣi nàmu aha? Na wain la nakɔ le mo na wò.”
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;
Hana ɖo eŋu gblɔ be, “Ao, nye aƒetɔ, nyɔnu si ƒe dzi le nu xam lae menye. Nyemenoa wain alo aha sesẽ o; ke boŋ nye dzimenuxaxa ko ɖem mele ɖe Yehowa ŋkume.
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.
Mègabu wò dɔlanyɔnu vɔ̃ɖi o. Nye xaxawo tae mele gbe dom ɖa le afi sia le nuxaxa blibo me.”
17 Thanne Hely seide to hir, Go thou in pees, and God of Israel yyue to thee the axyng which thou preiedist hym.
Eli gblɔ be, “Heyi le ŋutifafa me eye Israel ƒe Mawu la nana nu si nèbiae la wò!”
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.
Hana gblɔ be, “Na wò dɔla nakpɔ amenuveve le gbɔwò.” Ale wòlé eƒe mɔ tsɔ eye wòdi nane ɖu, ale be megato mo azɔ o.
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.
Ƒome blibo la fɔ ŋdi kanya heyi ɖasubɔ Yehowa le Agbadɔ la me eye wotrɔ yi woƒe aƒe me le Rama. Elkana dɔ srɔ̃a Hana gbɔ eye Yehowa ɖo ŋku Hana dzi.
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.
Ale le ɣeyiɣi aɖe megbe la, Hana fɔ fu, dzi viŋutsu eye wòna ŋkɔe be Samuel elabena egblɔ be, “Yehowa si mee mebiae le.”
21 Forsothe hir hosebonde Helcana stiede, and al his hows, to offre a solempne sacrifice, and his avow to the Lord.
Esi ƒe trɔ la, Elkana kple eƒe ƒometɔwo katã gawɔ mɔzɔzɔ si wowɔna ƒe sia ƒe heyi ɖe Yehowa ƒe Agbadɔ la me be wòaxe eƒe adzɔgbeɖefe.
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.
Ke Hana meyi o. Egblɔ na srɔ̃a be, “Malala va se ɖe esime ɖevi la dzudzɔ nonono ekema makplɔe ayi na Yehowa eye wòanɔ afi ma ɖaa.”
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 lɔ̃ ɖe edzi hegblɔ be, “Enyo; wɔ nu sia nu si nèkpɔ be edze. Woawɔ Yehowa ƒe lɔlɔ̃nu.” Ale Hana nɔ aƒe me va se ɖe esime Samuel dzudzɔ nonono.
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.
Esi wòtso no na ɖevia la, ekplɔ ɖevi la, togbɔ be metsi o hã la, etsɔ nyitsu si xɔ ƒe etɔ̃, wɔ lita blaeve-vɔ-eve kple wainlãgbalẽgolo ɖeka kpe ɖe eŋuti eye wòkplɔe va Yehowa ƒe aƒe me le Silo.
25 And thei sacrifieden a calf, and thei offriden the child to Hely.
Le vɔsa la megbe la, wokplɔ ɖevi la yi Eli gbɔ.
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;
Hana bia Eli be, “Nye aƒetɔ, èɖo ŋku dzinyea? Nyee nye nyɔnu si tsi tsitre ɖe afi sia ɣe aɖe ɣi henɔ gbe dom ɖa na Yehowa.
27 for this child Y preiede, and the Lord yaf to me myn axyng which Y axide hym;
Meɖe kuku nɛ be wòana ɖevi siam eye wòna nu si mebiae lam.
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.
Eya ta mele ɖevi la tsɔm na Yehowa azɔ le eƒe agbemeŋkekewo katã me.” Ale Hana gblẽ ɖevia ɖe afi ma le Agbadɔ la me na Yehowa.
