< 1 Samuel 2 >
1 Mgbe ahụ Hana kpere ekpere sị: “Obi m na-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼime Onyenwe anyị; nʼime Onyenwe anyị ka e buliri mpi m elu. Ọnụ m na-anya isi megide ndị iro m, nʼihi na-enwere m mmasị na nzọpụta gị.
And Anna worschipide, and seide, Myn herte fulli ioiede in the Lord, and myn horn is reisid in my God; my mouth is alargid on myn enemyes, for Y was glad in thin helthe.
2 “O nweghị onye dị nsọ dịka Onyenwe anyị; o nweghị onye dị karịa gị, o nweghị nkume ọzọ yiri Chineke anyị.
Noon is hooli as the Lord is; `for noon other is, outakun thee, and noon is strong as oure God.
3 “Anọgidela na-ekwu okwu site na mpako, ekwekwala ka ọnụ gị kwupụta okwu nganga. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke maara ihe niile, ya bụ onye na-anwale ọrụ niile.
Nyle ye multiplie to speke hiye thingis, and haue glorie; elde thingis go awey fro youre mouth; for God is Lord of kunnyngis, and thouytis ben maad redi to hym.
4 “Ụta ndị na-ebu agha agbajiela ma ndị ahụ dara mba ka e nyere ike.
The bouwe of strong men is ouercomun, and sijk men ben gird with strengthe.
5 Ndị na-eriju afọ e meela onwe ha ndị ọrụ ngo maka nri, ma ndị na-adịghị eriju afọ na mbụ aghọọla ndị agụụ adịghị agụkwa. Nwanyị aga amụtala ụmụ asaa ma nwanyị ahụ mụrụ ọtụtụ ụmụ adịghị amụtakwa.
Men fillid bifore settiden hem silf to hire for looues, and hungri men ben fillid; while the bareyn womman childide ful manye, and sche that hadde many sones, was sijke.
6 “Onyenwe anyị na-eweta ọnwụ, ya na-emekwa ka a dị ndụ, ọ bụ ya na-eme ka mmadụ daa nʼụra ọnwụ, na-emekwa ka ha dị ndụ ọzọ. (Sheol )
The Lord sleeth, and quikeneth; he ledith forth to hellis, and bryngith ayen. (Sheol )
7 Onyenwe anyị na-ezite ụbịam na akụnụba; ọ na-eweda nʼala, ma na-ebulikwa elu.
The Lord makith pore, and makith riche; he makith low, and reisith.
8 Ọ na-esite na ntụ welite onye ogbenye na-ebuli ndị mkpa na-akpa site nʼikpo ntụ. Ọ na-eme ka ha soro ụmụ eze nọdụ, na-emekwa ka ha keta ocheeze nsọpụrụ. “Nʼihi na ntọala ụwa bụ nke Onyenwe anyị nʼelu ya ka ọ dọkwasịrị ụwa.
He reisith a nedi man fro poudur, and `he reisith a pore man fro dryt, that he sitte with princes, and holde the seete of glorie; for the endis of erthe ben of the Lord, and he hath set the world on tho.
9 Ọ ga-echebe ụkwụ ndị nsọ ya ma ndị ajọ omume ka ọ ga-eme ka ha dere duu nʼime ọchịchịrị. “Ọ bụghị site nʼịdị ike ka mmeri si abịa.
He schal kepe `the feet of hise seyntis, and wickid men schulen be stille to gidere in derknessis; for a man schal not be maad strong in his owne strengthe.
10 Ndị ahụ na-ebuli onwe ha imegide Onyenwe anyị ka a ga-etipịa. Onye kachasị ihe niile elu ga-ebigbọ site nʼeluigwe megide ha. Onyenwe anyị ga-ekpe nsọtụ niile nke ụwa ikpe. “Ọ ga-enye eze ya ike bulikwaa ịdị ike nke onye ya e tere mmanụ.”
Aduersaries of the Lord schulen drede hym, and in heuenes he schal thundre on hem; the Lord schal deme the endis of erthe, and he schal yyue lordschip to his kyng, and he schal enhaunse the horn, `that is, power, of his Crist.
11 Mgbe ahụ, Elkena na Hana laghachiri Rema, ma ha hapụrụ Samuel nʼebe ahụ. Nwata ahụ ghọrọ onyeozi Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na ọ nọ na-enyere Elayị onye nchụaja aka.
And Helcana yede in to Ramatha, in to his hows; forsothe the child was seruaunt in the siyt of the Lord bifor the face of Ely the preest.
12 Ụmụ Elayị bụ ndị omume ha jọgburu onwe ya; ha na-elelị Onyenwe anyị anya.
Forsothe the sones of Hely weren sones of Belial,
13 Dịka mmeso ndị nchụaja nʼebe ndị mmadụ si dị: mgbe onye ọbụla bịara ịchụ aja, onyeozi onye nchụaja na-abịa mgbe a na-esi anụ, jiri ndụdụ nwere eze atọ nʼaka ya.
and knewen not the Lord, nether the office of preestis to the puple; but who euer hadde offrid sacrifice, the child of the preest cam, while the fleischis weren in sething, and he hadde a fleischhook with thre teeth in his hond;
14 Ọ na-adụnye ya nʼime efere anụ maọbụ ite, maọbụ iko e ji esi anụ. Ihe ọbụla ndụdụ ahụ dụpụtara ka onye nchụaja na-ewere. Otu a ka ha si emeso ndị Izrel niile na-abịa na Shaịlo.
and he sente it in to the `grete vessel of stoon, ethir in to the caudrun, ethir in to the pot, ethir in to the panne; and what euer thing the fleischhook reiside, the preest took to hym silf; so thei diden to al Israel of men comynge in to Silo.
15 Mgbe ụfọdụ, tupu e suree abụba anụ nʼebe ịchụ aja, ndị ozi onye nchụaja na-abịa gwa onye wetara anụ ịchụ aja sị ya, “Nye onye nchụaja anụ ndụ nke ọ ga-ahụ nʼọkụ, nʼihi na ọ chọghị iri anụ e siri esi, kama anụ ndụ ka ọ chọrọ.”
Yhe bifor that `the sones of Hely brenten the ynnere fatnesse, the `child of the preest cam, and seyde to the offerere, Yyue `thou fleisch to me, that Y sethe to the preest; for Y schal not take of thee sodun fleisch, but raw.
16 Ọ bụrụ na onye ji anụ ahụ bịa ịchụ aja agwa onyeozi ahụ okwu sị, “Chere ka anyị buru ụzọ suo abụba ndị a ọkụ tupu i were ihe ị chọrọ,” onyeozi ahụ na-aza sị, “Nye m anụ ahụ ugbu a, ọ bụrụ na i nyeghị m ya aga m eji ike were ya.”
And `the offrere seide to hym, The ynnere fatnesse be brent first to day bi the custom, and take thou to thee hou myche euer thi soule desirith. Whiche answeride, and seide to hym, Nay, for thou schalt yyue now; ellis Y schal take bi violence.
17 Mmehie ụmụ okorobịa ndị a na-eme dị ukwuu nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na ha na-eleda onyinye a na-ewetara Onyenwe anyị anya.
Therfor the synne of the children was ful greuouse bifor the Lord; for thei withdrowen men fro the `sacrifice of the Lord.
18 Nʼoge a, Samuel na-agakwa ozi ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụ ezie na ọ bụ naanị nwantakịrị, ọ na-eyi akwa ọcha efọọd dịka ndị nchụaja.
`Forsothe Samuel, a child gird with a lynnun clooth, mynystride bifor the face of the Lord.
19 Afọ ọbụla, nne ya na-akwara ya uwe mwụda, nke ọ na-ewetara ya mgbe ya na di ya bịara ịchụ aja.
And his moder made to hym a litil coote, which sche brouyte in daies ordeyned, and stiede with hir hosebonde, that he schulde offre a solempne offryng, and his auow.
20 Tupu ha alaa, Elayị na-agọzi Elkena na Hana sị, “Ka Onyenwe anyị nye gị ụmụ ọzọ, ndị ga-anọchi anya onye a ị rịọrọ maka ya, nke i nyeghachiri Onyenwe anyị.”
And Heli blesside Helcana and his wijf; and Heli seide `to hym, The Lord yelde to thee seed of this womman, for the yifte which thou hast youe to the Lord. And thei yeden in to her place.
21 Onyenwe anyị gosiri Hana amara. Ọ tụrụ ime mụta ụmụ ndị ikom atọ, na ụmụ ndị inyom abụọ. Ma Samuel tokwara nʼije ozi ya nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
Therfor the Lord visitide Anna, and sche conseyuede, and childide thre sones and twei douytris. And the child Samuel was `magnyfied at the Lord.
22 Nʼoge a, Elayị abụrụla nnọọ agadi. Ọ nọkwa na-anụ ihe ọjọọ niile ụmụ ya ndị ikom na-eme ndị Izrel niile, ya na otu ha si edinakwuru ụmụ nwanyị na-eje ozi nʼọnụ ụzọ ebe ịchụ aja ụlọ nzute.
Forsothe Hely was ful eld, and he herde alle `thingis whiche hise sones diden in al Israel, and hou thei slepten with wymmen, that awaitiden at the dore of the tabernacle.
23 Ya mere, Elayị gwara ụmụ ya sị, “Anụla m site nʼọnụ ndị Onyenwe anyị, banyere ihe ọjọọ niile dị iche iche unu na-eme. Gịnị mere unu ji na-eme ihe ọjọọ dị otu a?
And he seide to hem, Whi doen ye siche thingis, the worste thingis whiche Y here of al the puple?
24 Ọ bụghị akụkọ ọma ka m na-anụ site nʼọnụ ndị Onyenwe anyị banyere unu.
Nyle ye, my sones; it is not good fame, which Y here, that ye make the `puple of the Lord to do trespas.
25 Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ emehie megide mmadụ, Chineke nwere ike gbooro ya ọgụ. Ma ọ bụrụ na mmadụ emehie megide Onyenwe anyị, onye ga-egboro ya ọgụ?” Ma ụmụ ya ndị ikom egeghị nna ha ntị, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-akwado ịla ha nʼiyi.
If a man synneth ayens a man, God may be plesid to him; forsothe if a man synneth ayens the Lord, who schal preye for hym? And thei herden not the vois of her fadir, for God wolde sle hem.
26 Nwata ahụ bụ Samuel na-eto, na-agba dimkpa, bụrụkwa onye ihe ya dị Onyenwe anyị na mmadụ mma.
Forsothe the child Samuel profitide, and encreessyde, and pleside bothe God and men.
27 Otu onye nke Chineke bịara gwa Elayị okwu sị ya, “Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Ọ bụ na m ezipụtaghị ike m nʼụzọ pụtara ihe mgbe nna nna gị ha bụ ohu nʼala Ijipt nʼokpuru Fero?
Sotheli a man of God cam to Hely, and seide to hym, The Lord seith these thingis, Whether Y was not schewid apertli to the hows of thi fadir, whanne he was in Egipt, in the hows of Farao?
28 Ahọpụtara m nna nna unu ochie site nʼetiti ebo niile nke Izrel mee ya ka ọ bụrụ onye nchụaja m, ka ọ chụọ aja nʼebe ịchụ aja m, isure ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ, na iyi uwe efọọd ndị nchụaja nʼihu m. Enyere m ezinaụlọ nna nna gị onyinye niile Izrel ji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ.
And Y chees hym of alle lynagis of Israel `in to preest to me, that he schulde stie to myn auter, and schulde brenne encense to me, and that he schulde bere bifor me preestis cloth; and Y yaf to `the hows of thi fadir alle thingis of the sacrifices of the sones of Israel.
29 Gịnị mere unu ji na-elelị aja a na-achụrụ m, na onyinye a na-ewetara m nʼusoro dịka m si nye ya nʼiwu anya? Gịnị mere i ji na-asọpụrụ ụmụ gị karịa m, ime onwe unu ka unu gbaa abụba site nʼidebere onwe unu akụkụ kachasị mma nke onyinye niile ụmụ Izrel, ndị m, na-ewetara m.
Whi hast thou cast awey with the heele my sacrifice, and my yiftis, whiche Y comaundide to be offrid in the temple; and thou onouridst more thi sones than me, that ye eeten the principal partis of ech sacrifice of `Israel, my puple?
30 “Nʼihi ya, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel, kwupụtara, sị, ‘Ekwere m nkwa na ndị ezinaụlọ gị na nke nna gị ga-eje ozi nʼihu m ruo mgbe ebighị ebi,’ ma ugbu a, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya, ‘Ọ gaghị adịkwa otu a nʼebe m nọ! Nʼihi na ndị na-asọpụrụ m ka m ga-asọpụrụ, ma ndị niile na-eleda m anya, ka a ga-akpọ ihe efu.
Therfor the Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Y spekynge spak, that thin hows and `the hows of thi fadir schulde mynystre in my siyt til in to with outen ende; `now forsothe the Lord seith, Fer be this fro me; but who euere onourith me, Y schal glorifie hym; forsothe thei that dispisen me, schulen be vnnoble.
31 Oge na-abịa mgbe m ga-ebipụ ike gị na ike ezinaụlọ nna gị, wezuga ha ka nwoke ọbụla nʼezinaụlọ gị hapụ ito ghọọ agadi.
Lo! daies comen, and Y schal kitte awei thin arm, and the arm of the hows of thi fadir, that an eld man be not in thin hows.
32 Ị ga-ahụ mkpagbu nʼebe obibi m; a ga-emere Izrel ihe ọma nke ga-eme ka i nwee anya ụfụ, ma ọ dịghị onye ga-eme agadi nʼezinaụlọ gị.
And thou schalt se thin enemy in the temple, in alle prosperitees of Israel; and an eld man schal not be in thin hows in alle daies.
33 Onye ọbụla nʼime unu nke m na-ebipụghị site nʼebe ịchụ aja m ga-adị ndụ naanị nʼọnọdụ anya mmiri akwa nke ga-ekpuchi ya anya, na iru ụjụ nke obi. Ụmụ ụmụ gị niile ga-anwụ tupu ha eruo agadi.
Netheles Y schal not outerli take awei of thee a man fro myn auter, but that thin iyen faile, and thi soule faile; and greet part of thin hows schal die, whanne it schal come to mannus age.
34 “‘Ihe ga-adakwasị ụmụ gị ndị ikom, bụ Hofni na Finehaz, ga-abụrụ gị ihe ama. Ha abụọ ga-anwụ nʼotu ụbọchị.
Forsothe this schal be signe, that schal come to thi twei sones Ophym and Fynees, bothe schulen die in o dai.
35 Aga m akpọlite nye onwe m, onye nchụaja kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, onye ga-eme ihe dị m nʼuche na nʼobi. Aga m eme ka ezinaụlọ ya guzosie ike. O ga-eje ozi nʼihu Onye m e tere mmanụ oge niile.
And Y schal reise to me a feithful preest, that schal do bi myn herte and my soule; and Y schal bilde to hym a feithful hows, and he schal go bifore my Crist in alle daies.
36 Mgbe ahụ, ndị niile fọdụrụ nʼezinaụlọ gị ga-abịa kpọọ isiala nye ya, rịọọ ya ego na ihe oriri. Ha ga-asị, “Biko, nyetụ m ọrụ m ga-arụ nʼetiti ndị nchụaja, ka m hụ ihe m ga-eri.”’”
Forsothe it schal come, that who euer dwellith in thin hows, he come that `me preie for him, and that he offre a peny of siluer, and a cake of breed, and seie, Y biseche, suffre thou me to o `part of the preest, that Y ete a mussel of breed.
