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,
Na tera tetahi tangata no Ramataima Topimi, no te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima, ko Erekana tona ingoa, he Eparati, he tama na Iorohama, tama a Erihu, tama a Tohu, tama a Tupu:
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.
A tokorua ana wahine; ko Hana te ingoa o tetahi, ko Penina te ingoa o tetahi: na he tamariki a Penina, kahore ia he tamariki a Hana.
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.
A haere atu ai tenei tangata i ia tau, i ia tau, i tona pa ki te koropiko, ki te patu whakahere ki a Ihowa o nga mano, ki Hiro. A i reira nga tama tokorua a Eri, a Hoponi raua ko Pinehaha, nga tohunga a Ihowa.
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,
A, ka tae ki te ra i patu whakahere ai a Erekana, na, hoatu ana e ia etahi mea ki a Penina, ki tana wahine, ki ana tama katoa ano, ratou ko ana tamahine:
5 and to Hannah he giveth a certain portion — double, for he hath loved Hannah, and Jehovah hath shut her womb;
Ki tana wahine ia, ki a Hana, e rua nga wahi i hoatu e ia; i aroha hoki ia ki a Hana; otiia kua oti tona kopu te tutaki e Ihowa.
6 and her adversity hath also provoked her greatly, so as to make her tremble, for Jehovah hath shut up her womb.
A nui atu te whakatoia a tona hoa tauwhainga ki a ia, a mamae noa ia, no te mea kua tutakina tona kopu e Ihowa.
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.
Pena tonu ta te tane mahi, i ia tau, i ia tau, i nga haerenga o tenei ki runga, ki te whare o Ihowa, a pena tonu ta tera whakatoi i tenei; a tangi noa ia, kihai hoki i kai.
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?'
Na ka mea tana tahu, e Erekana ki a ia, E Hana, he aha koe i tangi ai? he aha hoki koe te kai ia? he aha ano i pouri ai tou ngakau? ki tau e kore ianei e nui atu toku pai i to nga tama kotahi tekau?
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.
Heoi ka whakatika a Hana i muri i a ratou i kai ai i Hiro, i inu ai hoki. Na ko Eri, ko te tohunga, i runga i tona nohoanga noho ai, i te pou o te kuwaha o te temepara o Ihowa.
10 And she is bitter in soul, and prayeth unto Jehovah, and weepeth greatly,
A i tino pouri te ngakau o tera, ka inoi ki a Ihowa, a nui atu tana tangi.
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.'
Na ka puaki tana ki taurangi, i mea ia, E Ihowa o nga mano, ki te ata titiro mai koe ki te pouri o tau pononga wahine, a ka mahara ki ahau, a e kore e wareware ki tau pononga, engari ka homai i tetahi tama ki tau pononga, na, ka hoatu ia e ahau ki a Ihowa i nga ra katoa e ora ai ia; e kore ano he heu e heua ki tona matenga.
12 And it hath been, when she multiplied praying before Jehovah, that Eli is watching her mouth,
Na, i te mea e inoi tonu ana ia i te aroaro o Ihowa, ka titiro a Eri ki tona waha.
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.
Na ko Hana, e korero ana ia i roto i tona ngakau; ko ona ngutu kau e komeme ana, kihai ia tona reo i rangona: na reira i mea ai a Eri e haurangi ana ia.
14 And Eli saith unto her, 'Until when are thou drunken? turn aside thy wine from thee.'
Na ka mea a Eri ki a ia, Ka tae te roa o tou haurangi! Whakarerea atu tau waina.
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;
Na ka utua e Hana, ka mea, Kahore, e toku ariki; he wahine ngakau pouri ahau: kahore ahau i inu i te waina, i te wai whakahaurangi ranei; engari e ringihia ana e ahau toku ngakau ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
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.'
Kaua tau pononga e kiia he tamahine na Periara: na te nui hoki o toku mamae, o toku pouri, enei korero aku.
17 And Eli answereth and saith, 'Go in peace, and the God of Israel doth give thy petition which thou hast asked of Him.'
Katahi ka utua e Eri, ka mea ia, Haere marie: a ma te Atua o Iharaira e homai tau mea i inoi ai koe ki a ia.
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.
Na ka mea tera, Kia manakohia tau pononga e koe. Katahi taua wahine ka haere, ka kai, a mutu ake te pouri o tona mata.
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;
Na ka maranga wawe ratou i te ata, a ka koropiko ki te aroaro o Ihowa, a hoki ana, haere ana ki to ratou whare i Rama. Na ka mohio a Erekana ki a Hana, ki tana wahine; i mahara ano a Ihowa ki a ia.
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.'
Na, ka taka nga ra, ka hapu a Hana, a ka whanau he tama; a huaina iho e ia tona ingoa ko Hamuera, i mea hoki, No te mea i inoia ia e ahau i a Ihowa.
21 And the man Elkanah goeth up, and all his house, to sacrifice to Jehovah the sacrifice of the days, and his vow.
Na ka haere taua tangata a Erekana me tona whare katoa ki runga, ki te patu i te whakahere o te tau ki a Ihowa, me tana ki taurangi hoki.
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.'
Ko Hana ia kihai i haere; i mea hoki ki tana tahu, Kia whakamutua ra ano te kai u a te tamaiti, ko reira ahau kawe atu ai i a ia, kia puta ai ia ki te aroaro o Ihowa, mo tona noho tonu atu ki reira.
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,
Na ka mea a Erekana tana tahu ki a ia, Meatia ta tou whakaaro e whakapai ai; e noho, kia whakamutua ra ano tana kai u; otiia kia mau te kupu a Ihowa. Heoi, noho ana taua wahine, whakangotea ana tana tama, a mutu noa tana kai u.
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.
Na, i te mutunga o tana kai u, ka mauria ia e ia, me etahi puru e toru, kotahi hoki te epa paraoa, me te pounamu waina, kawea ana ia e ia ki te whare o Ihowa, ki Hiro: he tamariki rawa hoki taua tamaiti.
25 And they slaughter the bullock, and bring in the youth unto Eli,
Na patua ana e ratou te puru, a kawea ana te tamaiti ki a Eri.
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;
A ka mea ia, E toku ariki, kia ora tou wairua; e toku ariki, ko ahau te wahine i tu i tou taha i konei nei, i inoi ra ki a Ihowa.
27 for this youth I prayed, and Jehovah doth give to me my petition which I asked of Him;
Ko tenei tamaiti taku i inoi ai; a homai ana e Ihowa ki ahau taku mea i inoi ai ahau ki a ia:
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.
Na reira kua tukua atu nei ia e ahau ki a Ihowa; he mea tuku ia ki a Ihowa i nga ra katoa e ora ai ia. A koropiko ana te tamaiti ki a Ihowa ki reira.
