Na Hana bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Mʼakoma di ahurisie wɔ Awurade mu! Ao, Awurade mu na me nhyira wɔ! Afei, manya mmuaeɛ ama mʼatamfoɔ, na mʼani gye wɔ wo gyeɛ no ho.

11 Nake Elikana akĩinũka mũciĩ gwake Rama, no kahĩĩ kau gagĩtungatĩra Jehova karĩ harĩ Eli ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
Afei, Elkana ne Hana gyaa Samuel hɔ kɔɔ efie wɔ Rama. Na abarimaa no bɛyɛɛ Awurade ɔboafoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔboaa ɔsɔfoɔ Eli.
12 Na rĩrĩ, ariũ a Eli maarĩ andũ aaganu; matiatĩĩte Jehova.
Eli mmammarima no yɛ asansafoɔ a wɔmfɛre Awurade,
13 Na rĩrĩ, warĩ mũtugo wa athĩnjĩri-Ngai harĩ andũ, atĩ rĩrĩa mũndũ o wothe aruta igongona, na rĩrĩa nyama ikĩrugwo, ndungata ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai yokaga na njibe ya mĩtheece ĩtatũ ĩrĩ guoko-inĩ.

14 Yaikagia njibe ĩyo nyũngũ-inĩ ya kĩgera, kana thaburia-inĩ, kana gĩtengʼũ-inĩ, kana nyũngũ-inĩ ya rĩũmba, nake mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akeyoera o kĩrĩa gĩothe njibe ĩngĩarutire. Ũguo nĩguo meekaga andũ othe a Isiraeli arĩa mookaga Shilo.
ɔsomfoɔ no de adinam no wɔ dadesɛn no mu. Na wɔhyɛ sɛ deɛ adinam no bɛwɔ mu no nyinaa yɛ Eli mma no dea. Wɔde Israelfoɔ a wɔba Silo hɔ nyinaa faa saa ɛkwan yi so.
15 Na o na mbere ya maguta gũcinwo-rĩ, ndungata ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩyokaga na ĩkeera mũndũ ũrĩa ũraruta igongona atĩrĩ, “He mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nyama imwe ahĩĩhie; ndegwĩtĩkĩra nyama nduge kuuma kũrĩ we, tiga o nyama njĩthĩ.”
Ɛtɔ dabi a, ansa na wɔbɛhye sradeɛ no, ɔsɔfoɔ no ɔsomfoɔ ba bɛka kyerɛ onipa a ɔrebɔ afɔdeɛ no sɛ, “Ma ɔsɔfoɔ no ɛnam no bi, na ɔntoto. Ɔmpɛ wo ɛnam a woanoa, na mmom, ɛnam mono nko ara.”
16 Mũndũ angĩamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Reke maguta mambe macinwo, ũcooke woe kĩrĩa gĩothe ũkwenda,” ndungata yacookagia atĩrĩ, “Aca, nengera o ro rĩu; kwaga ũguo, ndĩmĩoe na hinya.”
Onipa a ɔrebɔ afɔdeɛ no ka sɛ, “Fa dodoɔ biara a wopɛ, nanso sradeɛ no deɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye ansa.” Ɛhɔ na ɔsomfoɔ no bɛka sɛ, “Dabi, fa ma me seesei ara, anyɛ saa a, mede tumi bɛfa.”
17 Wĩhia ũcio wa aanake a Eli warĩ mũnene mũno maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩmanyararaga magongona marĩa andũ maarutagĩra Jehova.
Na saa bɔne a mmeranteɛ yi yɛ yi yɛ akyiwadeɛ wɔ Awurade anim, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔbu Awurade afɔrebɔ no animtia.
18 Nowe Samũeli aatungataga mbere ya Jehova arĩ o mwana mũnini, ehumbĩte ebodi ya gatani.
Samuel deɛ, ɛwom na ɔyɛ abarimaa, nanso na ɔyɛ Awurade ɔboafoɔ. Na wɔde nwera asɔfotadeɛ ahyɛ no te sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ.
19 O mwaka nyina nĩamũtumagĩra gakanjũ, akamũtwarĩra rĩrĩa megũthiĩ na mũthuuriwe kũruta igongona rĩa mwaka o mwaka.
Afe biara a ne maame ne ne kunu rekɔbɔ afirinhyia afɔdeɛ no, na ne maame pam batakari kumaa bi de kɔma no.
20 Eli nĩarathimaga Elikana na mũtumia wake, akoiga atĩrĩ, “Jehova arokũhe ciana na mũndũ-wa-nja ũyũ icooke ithenya rĩa mwana ũyũ aahooete, na agĩcooka kũmũheana harĩ Jehova.” Nao magacooka makainũka kwao mũciĩ.
Ansa na wɔbɛsane akɔ efie no, Eli hyira Elkana ne ne yere ka sɛ, “Awurade mma ɔbaa yi nwo mma, na ɔmmɛsi deɛ ɔbɔɔ ho mpaeɛ nyaeɛ a ɔde no maa Awurade no ananmu.”
21 Nake Jehova akĩiguĩra Hana tha; akĩgĩa nda agĩciara aanake atatũ na airĩtu eerĩ. Nake mwana ũcio ti Samũeli agĩkũrĩra hau mbere ya Jehova.
Na Awurade maa Hana woo mmammarima baasa ne mmammaa baanu. Na Samuel nyinii wɔ Awurade anim.
22 Na rĩrĩ, Eli aarĩ mũkũrũ mũno, na nĩaiguaga maũndũ mothe marĩa ariũ ake meekaga Isiraeli guothe, na ũrĩa maakomaga na andũ-a-nja arĩa maatungataga itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema-ya-Gũtũnganwo.
Afei, Eli bɔɔ akɔkoraa, nanso na ɔnim deɛ ne mmammarima no de reyɛ Israelfoɔ. Nhwɛsoɔ bi ne sɛ, na ɔnim sɛ ne mmammarima no fa mmabaawa a wɔboa ntomadan no ano adwumayɛ no.
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga mwĩke maũndũ ta maya? Nĩndĩraigua kuuma kũrĩ andũ othe ũhoro wa ciĩko ici cianyu cia waganu.
Eli ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Metete mo ho nsɛm firi ɔmanfoɔ nkyɛn a ɛfa amumuyɛsɛm a modie no ho. Adɛn enti na mokɔ so yɛ bɔne?
24 Aca, ariũ akwa; ũhoro ũrĩa ndĩraigua ũkĩhunja gatagatĩ ka andũ a Jehova ti mwega.

25 Mũndũ angĩhĩria mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ-rĩ, Ngai no amateithũrane; no mũndũ angĩhĩria Jehova-rĩ, nũũ ũngĩmũthaithanĩrĩra?” No rĩrĩ, aanake ake matiigana kũigua magĩkaanio nĩ ithe wao, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩatuĩte nĩekũmooraga.
Sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia ɔfoforɔ a, Onyankopɔn tumi gyina mu ma ɔfɔdifoɔ no. Nanso, sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia Awurade a, hwan na ɔbɛtumi adi agyinamu?” Eli mma no antie wɔn agya no afotuo, na Awurade nso reyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛkum wɔn.
26 Nake mwana ũcio ti Samũeli agĩkũra, akĩnenehaga, akĩendagwo nĩ Jehova o na andũ.
Na abɔfra Samuel nyiniiɛ, na ɔkɔɔ so nyaa adom firii Awurade ne ɔmanfoɔ nkyɛn.
27 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ wa Ngai nĩokire kũrĩ Eli, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga ũũ: ‘Githĩ niĩ ndieguũrĩirie nyũmba ya thoguo rĩrĩa maarĩ Misiri watho-inĩ wa Firaũni?
Ɛda koro bi Onyankopɔn onipa bi baa Eli nkyɛn de nkra yi brɛɛ no sɛ, “Sei na Awurade ka, ‘Manna me ho adi pefee ankyerɛ wʼagya fie ɛberɛ a na wɔyɛ nkoa wɔ Misraim no anaa?
