< 1 Samuel 1 >

1 And there is a certain man of Ramathaim-Zophim, of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name [is] Elkanah, son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, and Ephrathite,
Akwai wani mutum daga Ramatayim, mutumin Zuf daga ƙasar tuddan Efraim, sunansa Elkana, ɗan Yeroham, shi jikan Elihu ɗan Tohu, tattaɓa kunnen Zuf, mutumin Efraim.
2 and he hath two wives, the name of the one [is] Hannah, and the name of the second Peninnah, and Peninnah hath children, and Hannah hath no children.
Yana da mata biyu, ɗaya sunanta Hannatu, ɗayan kuwa ana kiranta Feninna. Ita Feninna tana da’ya’ya, amma Hannatu ba ta da’ya’ya.
3 And that man hath gone up out of his city from time to time, to bow himself, and to sacrifice, before Jehovah of Hosts, in Shiloh, and there [are] two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to Jehovah.
Shekara-shekara wannan mutum yakan haura daga garinsa zuwa Shilo domin yin sujada da miƙa hadayu ga Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. A can kuwa’ya’yan Eli maza biyu, Hofni da Finehas su ne firistoci na Ubangiji.
4 And the day cometh, and Elkanah sacrificeth, and he hath given to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions,
Duk sa’ad da rana ta kewayo don Elkana yă miƙa hadaya, yakan ba da kashin nama ga matarsa Feninna da dukan’ya’yanta maza da mata.
5 and to Hannah he giveth a certain portion — double, for he hath loved Hannah, and Jehovah hath shut her womb;
Amma Hannatu kuwa sai yă ba ta babban rabo gama yana ƙaunarta ko da yake Ubangiji ya kulle mahaifarta.
6 and her adversity hath also provoked her greatly, so as to make her tremble, for Jehovah hath shut up her womb.
Saboda Ubangiji ya kulle mahaifarta, sai kishiyarta ta dinga tsokanarta don tă ba ta haushi.
7 And so he doth year by year, from the time of her going up into the house of Jehovah, so it provoketh her, and she weepeth, and doth not eat.
Wannan ya ci gaba shekara da shekaru. Duk lokacin da Hannatu ta haura zuwa haikalin Ubangiji, sai kishiyarta tă tsokane ta har tă yi ta kuka tă kuma ƙi cin abinci.
8 And Elkanah her husband saith to her, 'Hannah, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? and why is thy heart afflicted? am I not better to thee than ten sons?'
Elkana mijinta kuwa yakan ce mata, “Hannatu don me kike kuka? Me ya sa ba za ki ci abinci ba? Don me kika karaya? Ashe, ban fi’ya’ya goma a gare ki ba?”
9 And Hannah riseth after eating in Shiloh, and after drinking, and Eli the priest is sitting on the throne by the side-post of the temple of Jehovah.
Wata rana sa’ad da suka gama ci da sha a Shilo, Hannatu ta miƙe tsaye. Eli firist kuwa yana zaune a kujera a bakin ƙofar haikalin Ubangiji.
10 And she is bitter in soul, and prayeth unto Jehovah, and weepeth greatly,
A cikin baƙin ciki, Hannatu ta yi kuka mai zafi ta yi addu’a ga Ubangiji.
11 and voweth a vow, and saith, 'Jehovah of Hosts, if Thou dost certainly look on the affliction of Thy handmaid, and hast remembered me, and dost not forget Thy handmaid, and hast given to Thy handmaid seed of men — then I have given him to Jehovah all days of his life, and a razor doth not go up upon his head.'
Ta yi ta cewa, “Ya Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. In har ka dubi baƙin cikin baiwarka, ka tuna da ni, ba ka kuma manta da baiwarka ba, amma ka ba ta ɗa, ni ma zan miƙa shi ga Ubangiji dukan rayuwarsa, aska kuwa ba za tă taɓa kansa ba.”
12 And it hath been, when she multiplied praying before Jehovah, that Eli is watching her mouth,
Yayinda take addu’a ga Ubangiji, Eli ya lura da bakinta.
13 and Hannah, she is speaking to her heart, only her lips are moving, and her voice is not heard, and Eli reckoneth her to be drunken.
Hannatu tana addu’a a zuci, ba a jin muryarta, sai leɓunanta ne kawai suna motsi. Eli kuwa ya yi tsammani ta bugu ne.
14 And Eli saith unto her, 'Until when are thou drunken? turn aside thy wine from thee.'
Sai ya ce mata, “Har yaushe za ki ci gaba da maye? Ki daina shan ruwan inabi.”
15 And Hannah answereth and saith, 'No, my lord, A woman sharply pained in spirit I [am], and wine and strong drink I have not drunk, and I pour out my soul before Jehovah;
Hannatu ta ce, “Ba haka ba ne, ranka yă daɗe, ni mace ce da take cikin matsala ƙwarai da gaske. Ban sha ruwan inabi ba, ko wani abu mai sa maye, ina dai faɗa wa Ubangiji abin da yake damuna ne.
16 put not thy handmaid before a daughter of worthlessness, for from the abundance of my meditation, and of my provocation, I have spoken hitherto.'
Kada ka yi zato baiwarka’yar iska ce. Ina addu’a a nan saboda yawan azaba da baƙin cikin da nake ciki.”
17 And Eli answereth and saith, 'Go in peace, and the God of Israel doth give thy petition which thou hast asked of Him.'
Eli ya ce, “In haka ne, to, ki sauka lafiya, Allah na Isra’ila kuma yă ba ki abin da kika roƙa daga gare shi.”
18 And she saith, 'Let thy handmaid find grace in thine eyes;' and the woman goeth on her way, and eateth, and her countenance hath not been [sad] for it any more.
Ta ce, bari baiwarka tă sami tagomashi a idonka. Sai ta yi tafiyarta ta je ta ci wani abu, fuskarta kuwa ba tă ƙara kasance da baƙin ciki ba.
19 And they rise early in the morning, and bow themselves before Jehovah, and turn back, and come in unto their house in Ramah, and Elkanah knoweth Hannah his wife, and Jehovah remembereth her;
Kashegari da sassafe suka tashi suka yi sujada a gaban Ubangiji, sai suka koma garinsu a Rama. Elkana kuwa ya kwana da matarsa Hannatu, Ubangiji kuma ya tuna da ita.
20 and it cometh to pass, at the revolution of the days, that Hannah conceiveth, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Samuel, 'for, from Jehovah I have asked him.'
Ana nan sai Hannatu ta yi ciki, ta kuma haifi ɗa. Ta ba shi suna Sama’ila; tana cewa, “Domin na roƙe shi daga wurin Ubangiji.”
21 And the man Elkanah goeth up, and all his house, to sacrifice to Jehovah the sacrifice of the days, and his vow.
Da shekara ta kewayo, sai Elkana da iyalinsa suka sāke tafi Shilo domin su yi hadaya ga Ubangiji, yă kuma cika alkawarin da ya yi.
22 And Hannah hath not gone up, for she said to her husband, 'Till the youth is weaned — then I have brought him in, and he hath appeared before the face of Jehovah, and dwelt there — unto the age.'
Hannatu kuwa ba tă bi su ba. Ta gaya wa mijinta cewa, “Sai bayan na yaye yaron, zan kai shi in miƙa shi a gaban Ubangiji, yă kuma kasance a wurin koyaushe.”
23 And Elkanah her husband saith to her, 'Do that which is good in thine eyes; abide till thy weaning him; only, Jehovah establish His word;' and the woman abideth and suckleth her son till she hath weaned him,
Elkana mijinta ya ce mata, “Ki yi abin da kika ga ya fi miki kyau. Ki jira har sai bayan kin yaye shi. Ubangiji dai ya cika maganarsa.” Saboda haka matar ta tsaya a gida, ta yi ta renon ɗanta har ta yaye shi.
24 and she causeth him to go up with her when she hath weaned him, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she bringeth him into the house of Jehovah at Shiloh, and the youth [is but] a youth.
Bayan ta yaye shi, sai ta ɗauki yaron tare da bijimi bana uku, da mudun gari, da salkan ruwan inabi, ta kawo su a gidan Ubangiji a Shilo.
25 And they slaughter the bullock, and bring in the youth unto Eli,
Bayan an yanka bijimin, sai suka kawo yaron wurin Eli.
26 and she saith, 'O, my lord, thy soul liveth! my lord, I [am] the woman who stood with thee in this [place], to pray unto Jehovah;
Sai ta ce masa, “Ranka yă daɗe, ba ka gane ni ba? Ai, ni ce matar da ta taɓa tsayawa a gabanka, tana addu’a ga Ubangiji.
27 for this youth I prayed, and Jehovah doth give to me my petition which I asked of Him;
Wannan yaron ne na roƙa daga wurin Ubangiji, ya kuwa ba ni abin da na roƙa daga gare shi.
28 and also I have caused him to be asked for Jehovah, all the days that he hath lived — he is asked for Jehovah;' and he boweth himself there before Jehovah.
Saboda haka, na ba da shi ga Ubangiji muddin ransa, zai zama na Ubangiji.” A can kuwa ya yi wa Ubangiji sujada.
