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.
Pea naʻe lotu ʻa ʻAna, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku fiefia hoku loto ʻia Sihova, ʻoku fakahikihiki hoku mālohi ʻia Sihova; kuo mafaʻa hoku ngutu ki hoku ngaahi fili; ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku fiefia ʻi hoʻo fakamoʻui.
2 “O nweghị onye dị nsọ dịka Onyenwe anyị; o nweghị onye dị karịa gị, o nweghị nkume ọzọ yiri Chineke anyị.
ʻOku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ʻo hangē ko Sihova: he ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha mo koe: pea ʻoku ʻikai foki ha makatuʻu ʻo hangē ko hotau ʻOtua.
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.
ʻOua naʻa toe talanoa fakafiefielahi faufau pehē; ʻoua naʻa hā mai ʻae lea mālohi mei ho ngutu: he ko e ʻOtua ʻoe loto ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku ʻekeʻi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi faianga.
4 “Ụta ndị na-ebu agha agbajiela ma ndị ahụ dara mba ka e nyere ike.
Kuo fesiʻi ʻae ngaahi kaufana ʻae kau tangata mālohi, pea ko kinautolu naʻe tūkia kuo nonoʻo ʻaki ʻae mālohi.
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.
Ko kinautolu naʻe mākona kuo nau fakamoʻua ʻakinautolu ke ngāue ki he meʻakai; pea kuo ngata ʻakinautolu naʻe fiekaia: pea kuo fanauʻi ʻae toko fitu ʻe he paʻa; pea ko ia kuo tokolahi ʻene fānau kuo hoko ʻo vaivai.
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 )
ʻOku tāmateʻi ʻe Sihova, pea ne fakamoʻui: ʻoku ne ʻohifo ki he faʻitoka, pea ʻoku ne toe ʻo hake. (Sheol )
7 Onyenwe anyị na-ezite ụbịam na akụnụba; ọ na-eweda nʼala, ma na-ebulikwa elu.
ʻOku fakamasiva ʻe Sihova, pea ne fakamaʻumeʻaʻi: ʻoku ne fakamoʻulaloa, mo ne hiki ki ʻolunga.
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.
ʻOku ne hiki hake ʻae masiva mei he efu, ʻo fakahikihiki ʻae faʻa kole mei he tuʻunga veve, ke fakanofo ʻakinautolu mo e houʻeiki, pea ke ne ngaohi ʻakinautolu kenau maʻu ʻae nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki: he ko e ngaahi pou ʻo māmani ʻoku ʻo Sihova, pea kuo ne fokotuʻu ʻa māmani ki ai.
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.

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.”
ʻE fesifesiʻi ʻae ngaahi fili ʻo Sihova; ʻe mana ʻe ia kiate kinautolu mei langi: “ʻE fakamaau ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani; pea ʻe foaki ʻe ia ʻae mālohi ki heʻene tuʻi, pea ne fakahikihiki ʻae mālohi ʻo ia kuo ne pani.”
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.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻElikena ki hono fale ki Lama. Pea naʻe tauhi ʻa Sihova ʻe he tamasiʻi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Ilai ko e taulaʻeiki.
12 Ụmụ Elayị bụ ndị omume ha jọgburu onwe ya; ha na-elelị Onyenwe anyị anya.
Ka ko eni ko e fānau ʻoe angakovi ʻae ongo foha ʻo Ilai; naʻe ʻikai te na ʻilo ʻa Sihova.
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.
Pea ko e anga naʻe fai ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki he kakai, naʻe pehē, ʻi he ʻatu ʻe ha tangata ha feilaulau, naʻe haʻu ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae taulaʻeiki ʻi he kei haka ʻae kakano, mo e meʻa huhu matatolu ʻi hono nima;
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.
Pea naʻa ne velo ia ki he fakapaku, pe ko e kulo, pe ha meʻa haka luoluo, pea ʻilonga ʻaia naʻe matoʻo hake ʻe he huhu naʻe ʻave ia ʻe he taulaʻeiki maʻana. Pea naʻe pehē ʻenau fai ʻi Sailo ki he kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu ki ai.
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.”
Pea ʻi he teʻeki ai tutu foki ʻae ngako, naʻe haʻu ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻae taulaʻeiki, ʻo ne pehē ki he tangata ʻoku fai ʻae feilaulau, “Tuku mai ʻae kakano ke tunu maʻae taulaʻeiki; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ne kai kakano haka ʻiate koe, ka ko e kanomate.”
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.”
Pea kapau naʻe pehēange ʻe ha tangata kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa nau taʻofi kae tutu leva ʻae ngako, pea ke toki ʻave ʻa ia, kotoa pē ʻoku ke loto ki ai; naʻe tali pehē leva ʻe ia ia, ‘ʻIkai;’ ka ke tuku mai leva ia kiate au: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, te u ʻave fakamālohi ia.”
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.
Ko ia naʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻae angahala ʻae ongo talavou ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova: he naʻe fehiʻa ʻae kakai ki he feilaulau kia Sihova.
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.
Ka naʻe tauhi ʻe Samuela ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ko e tamasiʻi kuo nonoʻo ʻaki ʻae ʻefoti ʻoe tupenu lelei.
19 Afọ ọbụla, nne ya na-akwara ya uwe mwụda, nke ọ na-ewetara ya mgbe ya na di ya bịara ịchụ aja.
Pea naʻe ngaohi foki ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻae kofutuʻa siʻi, ʻo ʻomi kiate ia ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē, ʻi heʻene ʻalu hake mo hono husepāniti ke ʻatu ʻae feilaulau ʻoe taʻu.
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.”
Pea naʻe tāpuaki ʻe Ilai ʻa ʻElikena mo hono uaifi, ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ʻatu ʻe Sihova kiate koe ʻae hako ʻi he fefine ni ʻi he kole ni ʻaia kuo tuku kia Sihova.” Pea naʻa na ō ki hona ʻapi.
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.
Pea naʻe ʻaʻahi ʻa Sihova kia ʻAna, ko ia naʻa ne feitama, pea ne fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama ʻe toko tolu mo e taʻahine ʻe toko ua. Pea naʻe tupu pē ʻae tamasiʻi ko Samuela ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
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.
Pea kuo motuʻa lahi ʻa Ilai, ʻo ne fanongo ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe hono ongo foha ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē; mo ʻenau mohe mo e kau fefine naʻe fakataha ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.
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?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua. “Ko e hā ʻoku mo fai ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa pehē? He ʻoku ou fanongo ki hoʻomou fai angakovi ʻi he kakai ni kotoa pē.
24 Ọ bụghị akụkọ ọma ka m na-anụ site nʼọnụ ndị Onyenwe anyị banyere unu.
ʻOua, ʻe hoku ongo foha; he ʻoku ʻikai ko e ongolelei ʻoku ou ongoʻi: ʻoku mou fakalanga ʻae lāunga ʻi he kakai ʻo Sihova.
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.
Kapau ʻoku fai angahala ha tangata ʻe tokotaha ki he tokotaha, ʻe fakamaauʻi ia ʻe he fakamaau: pea kapau ʻoku fai angahala ʻe ha tangata kia Sihova, ko hai te ne fakalaloaʻi ia?” Ka naʻe ʻikai te na tokanga ki he leʻo ʻo ʻena tamai, koeʻuhi naʻe finangalo ʻa Sihova ke tāmateʻi ʻakinaua.
26 Nwata ahụ bụ Samuel na-eto, na-agba dimkpa, bụrụkwa onye ihe ya dị Onyenwe anyị na mmadụ mma.
Pea naʻe tupu pē ʻae tamasiʻi ko Samuela, pea naʻe ʻofeina ia ʻia Sihova, pea mo e kakai foki.
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?
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua kia Ilai, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova, ʻIkai naʻaku hā atu au ki he fale ʻo hoʻo tamai ʻi heʻenau ʻi ʻIsipite ʻi he fale ʻo Felo?

Pea ʻikai naʻaku fili ia mei he ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli ke hoko ko hoku taulaʻeiki, ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻi heʻeku feilaulauʻanga, ke tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala, pea ke kofuʻaki ʻae ʻefoti ʻi hoku ʻao? Pea ʻikai naʻaku foaki ki he fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻae ngaahi feilaulau naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae afi ʻe he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli?

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!
