I Samuela 1

1 O KEKAHI kanaka no Ramataima-Zopima, no ka mauna o Eperaima, o Elekana kona inoa, ke keiki a Ierohama, ke keiki a Elihu, ke keiki a Tohu, ke keiki a Zupa, no Eperata:

There was a man of Ramathaimsophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elcana, the son of Jeroham, the son of Eliu, the son of Thohu, the son of Suph, an Ephraimite:

2 Elua aua wahine; o Hana ka inoa o kekahi, a o Penina ka inoa o kekahi: a he mau keiki na Penina, aka, o Hana aohe ana keiki.

And he had two wives, the name of one was Anna, and the name of the other Phenenna. Phenenna had children: but Anna had no children.

3 I kela makahiki keia makahiki, hele aku ua kanaka la mai kona kulanakauhale aku e hoomana, a e kaumaha aku ia Iehova o na lehulehu ma Silo; malaila na keiki elua a Eli, o Hopeni laua o Pinehasa, na kahuna a Iehova.

And this man went up out of his city upon the appointed days, to adore and to offer sacrifice to the Lord of hosts in Silo. And the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were there priests of the Lord.

4 A hiki mai ka la a Elekana i kaumaha aku ai, haawi aku la ia i na haawina na Penina, na kana wahine, a na kana mau keikikane a pau, a na kana mau kaikamahine.

Now the day came, and Elcana offered sacrifice, and gave to Phenenna his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, portions:

5 A haawi papalua aku la ia na Hana; no ka mea, ua aloha aku oia ia Hana: aka, ua pa ia ia Iehova.

But to Anna he gave one portion with sorrow, because he loved Anna. And the Lord had shut up her womb.

6 Hoonaukiuki aku la kona enemi ia ia, i mea e hoonaulu aku ai ia ia; no ka mea, ua hoopaa o Iehova i kona opu.

Her rival also afflicted her, and troubled her exceedingly, insomuch that she upbraided her, that the Lord had shut up her womb:

7 Pela kana i hana'i mai kela makahiki a keia makahiki, ia ia i pii aku ai i ka hale o Iehova, pela no ia i hoonaukiuki aku ai ia ia, a uwe iho la o Hana, aole ia i ai.

And thus she did every year, when the time returned that they went up to the temple of the Lord: and thus she provoked her: but Anna wept, and did not eat.

8 Alaila ninau aku la o Elekana kana kane ia ia, E Hana, heaha kau i uwe ai? No ke aha la aole oe i ai? Heaha ka mea i kaumaha'i kou naau? Aole anei e oi aku ko'u pono ia oe imua o na keikikane he umi?

Then Elcana her husband said to her: Anna, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? And why dost thou afflict thy heart? Am not I better to thee than ten children?

9 Ku ae la o Hana mahope o ka lakou ai ana a me ka lakou inu ana ma Silo: a e noho ana o Eli ke kahuna maluna o ka noho ma ka lapauila o ka hale o Iehova.

So Anna arose after she had eaten and drunk in Silo: And Heli the priest sitting upon a stool, before the door of the temple of the Lord:

10 Ua kaumaha kona naau, pule aku la oia ia Iehova, a uwe nui iho la.

As Anna had her heart full of grief, she prayed to the Lord, shedding many tears,

11 Hoohiki iho la ia i ka hoohiki ana, i aku la, E Iehova o na lehulehu, a i ike pono mai oe i ka ehaeha o kau kauwawahine, a i hoomanao mai ia'u, aole i hoopoina i kau kauwawahine, a i haawi mai hoi i keikikane no kau kauwawahine; alaila e hoolilo au ia ia no Iehova i na la a pau o kona ola ana; aole e hoopiliia mai ka pahi amu ma kona poo.

And she made a vow, saying: O Lord, of hosts, if thou wilt look down on the affliction of thy servant, and wilt be mindful of me, and not forget thy handmaid, and wilt give to thy servant a man child: I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.

12 A i kana pule nui ana imua o Iehova, nana aku la o Eli i kona waha.

And it came to pass, as she multiplied prayers before the Lord, that Heli observed her mouth.

13 Maloko o kona naau ka Hana olelo ana; akoako wale no kona lehelehe, aole i loheia kona leo: nolaila manao iho la o Eli, ua ona ia.

Now Anna spoke in her heart, and only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard at all. Heli therefore thought her to be drunk,

14 Ninau aku la o Eli ia ia, Pehea la ka loihi o kou ona ana? E hoolei oe i kou waina mai ou aku la.

And said to her: How long wilt thou, be drunk? digest a little the wine, of which thou hast taken too much.

15 Olelo aku la o Hana, i aku la, Aole, e kuu haku; he wahine ehaeha wau ma ka naau; aole au i inu i ka waina, aole i ka mea ona, aka, ua ninini aku au i kuu uhane imua o Iehova.

Anna answering, said: Not so, my lord: for I am an exceeding unhappy woman, and have drunk neither wine nor any strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the Lord.

16 Mai manao mai oe i kau kauwawahine, he kaikamahine na ka hewa; no ka mea, no ka nui o kuu ehaeha ana, a me ke kaumaha, ua olelo iho nei au a keia wa.

Count not thy handmaid for one of the daughters of Belial: for out of the abundance of my sorrow and grief have I spoken till now.

17 Olelo aku la o Eli, i aku la. O hele oe me ke aloha: a na ke Akua o ka Israela e hooko mai kau mea au i noi aku ai ia ia.

Then Heli said to her: Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.

18 I mai la ia, I loaa i kau kauwawahine ke aloha imua o kou maka. A hele aku la ua wahine la ma kona wahi i hele ai, a ai iho la, aole minamina hou kona maka.

And she said: Would to God thy handmaid may find grace in thy eyes. So the woman went on her way, and ate, and her countenance was no more changed.

19 Ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, a hoomana aku la imua o Iehova, a hoi aku la a hiki i ko lakou hale ma Rama: a ike iho la o Elekana ia Hana i kana wahine; a hoomanao mai la o Iehova ia ia.

And they rose in the morning, and worshipped before the Lord: and they returned, and came into their house at Ramatha. And Elcana knew Anna his wife: and the Lord remembered her.

20 A hiki mai ka manawa mahope o ka Hana hapai ana, hanau mai la ia, he keikikane, a kapa aku la ia i kona inoa o Samuela; no ka mea, ua noi aku au ia ia ia Iehova.

And it came to pass when the time was come about, Anna conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel: because she had asked him of the Lord.

21 A o ua kanaka la, o Elekana, a me ko kona hale a pau, hele aku la e kaumaha aku ia Iehova i ka mohai makahiki, a me kona hoohiki ana.

And Elcana her husband went up, and all his house, to offer to the Lord the solemn sacrifice, and his vow.

22 Aka, aole hiki aku o Hana, no ka mea, olelo aku la ia i kana kane, Aia e ukuhiia'ku ai ke keiki, alaila lawe aku au ia ia, e ikea ia ma ke alo o Iehova, a e noho mau loa ia ilaila.

But Anna went not up: for she said to her husband: I will not go till the child be weaned, and till I may carry him, that he may appear before the Lord, and may abide always there.

23 I mai la o Elekana kana kane ia ia, E hana oe i ka pono i kou manao: e noho, a hiki mai ka manawa e ukuhi aku ai oe ia ia; e hooko mai o Iehova i kana olelo. Noho iho la ka wahine e hanai i ke keiki, a hiki i ka wa e ukuhi aku ai ia ia.

And Elcana her husband said to her: Do what seemeth good to thee, and stay till thou wean him: and I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word. So the woman stayed at home, and gave her son suck, till she weaned him.

24 A i ka wa i ukuhi aku ai ia i ke keiki, lawe aku la oia ia ia me na bipikane ekolu, hookahi epa palaoa, hookahi hue waina hoi, a lawe aku la ia ia i ka hale o Iehova ma Silo: a opiopio no hoi ke keiki.

And after she had weaned him, she carried him with her, with three calves, and three bushels of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she brought him to the house of the Lord in Silo. Now the child was as yet very young:

25 Pepehi iho lakou i ka bipikane, a lawe aku la i ke keiki ia Eli.

And they immolated a calf, and offered the child to Heli.

26 Olelo aku la ia, E kuu haku, ma kou ola ana, e kuu haku, owau no ka wahine i ku pu me oe maanei e pule ana ia Iehova.

And Anna said: I beseech thee, my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord: I am that woman who stood before thee here praying to the Lord.

27 O keia keiki ka'u i pule aku ai; a ua haawi mai o Iehova ia'u i ka'u noi a'u i noi aku ai ia ia.

For this child did I pray, and the Lord hath granted me my petition, which I asked of him.

28 No ia mea, ke haawi aku nei au ia ia no Iehova. I na la a pau o kona ela ana e haawiia oia no Iehova. A hoomana aku la lakou ia Iehova malaila.

Therefore I also have lent him to the Lord all the days of his life, he shall be lent to the Lord. And they adored the Lord there. And Anna prayed, and said:
