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:

NOW THERE was a certain man of Ramathaim-zophim, of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, 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 the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah; and Peninnah had children, but Hannah 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 from year to year to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there priests unto 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.

And it came to pass upon a day, when Elkanah sacrificed, that he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her 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 unto Hannah he gave a double portion; for he loved Hannah, but 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.

And her rival vexed her sore, to make her fret, because 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 as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she vexed her; therefore she wept, and would 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?

And Elkanah her husband said unto her: 'Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?'

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 Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk — now Eli the priest sat upon his seat by the door-post of the temple of the LORD;

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

and she was in bitterness of soul — and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore.

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 vowed a vow, and said: 'O LORD of hosts, if Thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of Thy handmaid, and remember me, and not forget Thy handmaid, but wilt give unto Thy handmaid a man-child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor 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 prayed long before the LORD, that Eli watched 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 Hannah, she spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice could not be heard; therefore, Eli thought she had been drunken.

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 Eli said unto her: 'How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.'

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.

And Hannah answered and said: 'No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit; I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I 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 a wicked woman: for out of the abundance of my complaint and my vexation have I spoken hitherto.'

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 Eli answered and said: 'Go in peace, and the God of Israel grant thy petition that 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: 'Let thy servant find favour in thy sight.' So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.

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 up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah 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, that Hannah conceived, and bore a son; and she called his name Samuel: 'because I have 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 the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer unto the LORD the yearly 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 Hannah went not up; for she said unto her husband: 'Until the child be weaned, when I will bring him, that he may appear before the LORD, and there abide for ever.'

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 Elkanah her husband said unto her: 'Do what seemeth thee good; tarry until thou have weaned him; only the LORD establish His word.' So the woman tarried and gave her son suck, until 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 when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks, and one ephah of meal, and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of the LORD in Shiloh; and the child was young.

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

And when the bullock was slain, the child was brought to Eli.

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 she said: 'Oh, my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord, I am the woman that stood by thee here, praying unto 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 I prayed; 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; as long as he liveth he is lent to the LORD.' And he worshipped the LORD there.
