< I Samuel 1 >

1 Adda maysa a lalaki iti Rama Zofim, iti katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim; ti naganna ket Elkana a putot ni Jehoram, ni Jehoram ket putot ni Eliu, ni Eliu ket putot ni Tuho, ni Tuho ket putot ni Zup, ni Elkana ket maysa nga Efraimita.
There was a man of Armathaim Sipha, of mount Ephraim, and his name [was] Helkana, a son of Jeremeel the son of Elias the son of Thoke, in Nasib Ephraim.
2 Addaan isuna iti dua nga asawa, Ana ti nagan ti umuna, ken Fenina ti nagan ti maikadua. Adda annak ni Fenina, ngem awan ti anak ni Ana.
And he [had] two wives; the name of the one [was] Anna, and the name of the second Phennana. And Phennana had children, but Anna had no child.
3 Tinawen a mapan daytoy a lalaki idiay Silo a siudadna tapno agdayaw ken agidaton kenni Yahweh a mannakabalin amin. Adda sadiay dagiti dua a lallaki a putot ni Eli, da Ofni ken Finees, a papadi ni Yahweh.
And the man went up from year to year from his city, from Armathaim, to worship and sacrifice to the Lord God of Sabaoth at Selom: and [there were] Heli and his two sons Ophni and Phinees, the priests of the Lord.
4 No kasta a dumteng ti aldaw iti tunggal tawen a panagidaton ni Elkana, kankanayon nga it-itedna kenni Fenina nga asawana ken kadagiti amin nga annakna a lallaki ken babbai dagiti paset ti karne.
And the day came, and Helkana sacrificed, and gave portions to his wife Phennana and her children.
5 Ngem kenni Ana, kankanayon a mamidua ti kaadu ti it-itedna, ta ay-ayatenna ni Ana, uray no sinerraan ni Yahweh ti aanakanna.
And to Anna he gave a prime portion, because she had no child, only Helkana loved Anna more than the other; but the Lord [had] closed her womb.
6 Nakaro ti panangumsi kenkuana ti kasalisalna tapno pagpulkokenna isuna, gapu ta inserra ni Yahweh ti aanakanna.
For the Lord gave her no child in her affliction, and according to the despondency of her affliction; and she was dispirited on this account, that the Lord shut up her womb so as not to give her a child.
7 Isu nga iti tinawen, no kasta a mapan isuna iti balay ni Yahweh a kaduana ti pamiliana, kankanayon a karkariten isuna ni Fenina. Masansan ngarud nga agsangit isuna ken saan a mangmangan.
So she did year by year, in going up to the house of the Lord; and she was dispirited, and wept, and did not eat.
8 Kankanayon nga ibagbaga kenkuana ni Elkana nga asawana, “Ana, apay nga agsangitka? Apay a saanka a mangan? Apay nga agliddaang ti pusom? Saan kadi a nasaysayaatak kenka ngem kadagiti sangapulo nga annak?
And Helkana her husband said to her, Anna: and she said to him, Here [am] I, my lord: and he said to her, What ails you that you weep? and why do you not eat? and why does your heart strike you? [am] I not better to you than ten children?
9 Iti maysa kadagitoy a padaya, timmakder ni Ana kalpasan ti pannangan ken panag-iinomda idiay Silo. Ita, nakatugaw ni Eli a padi iti tugawna iti igid ti pagserkan ti balay ni Yahweh.
And Anna rose up after they had eaten in Selom, and stood before the Lord: and Heli the priest [was] on a seat by the threshold of the temple of the Lord.
10 Mariribukan unay ni Ana; nagkararag isuna kenni Yahweh ken nagsangit iti nasaem.
And she [was] very much grieved in spirit, and prayed to the Lord, and wept abundantly.
11 Nagsapata isuna ket kinunana, “Yahweh a mannakabalin amin, no makitam la koma ti panagrigat ti adipenmo ken lagipennak, ken saanmo a lipaten ti adipenmo, ngem ipaayam ketdi koma ti adipenmo iti anak a lalaki, ngarud, itedkonto isuna kenni Yahweh iti unos ti panagbiagna, ket awanto ti kartib a mangsagid iti ulona.
And she vowed a vow to the Lord, saying, O Lord God of Sabaoth, if you welt indeed look upon the humiliation of your handmaid, and remember me, and give to your handmaid a boy, then will I indeed dedicate him to you till the day of his death; and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink, and no razor shall come upon his head.
12 Bayat nga agkarkararag isuna iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, sipsiputan ni Eli ti ngiwatna.
And it came to pass, while she was long praying before the Lord, that Heli the priest marked her mouth.
13 Naimpusoan ti panagkararag ni Ana. Agkutkuti dagiti bibigna, ngem saan a mangngeg ti timekna. Impagarup ngarud ni Eli a nabartek isuna.
And she was speaking in her heart, and her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: and Heli accounted her a drunken woman.
14 Kinuna ni Eli kenkuana, “Kasano pay kapaut ti panagbarbartekmo? Isardengmon ti panagin-inommo.”
And the servant of Heli said to her, How long will you be drunken? take away your wine from you, and go out from the presence of the Lord.
15 Simmungbat ni Ana, “Saan, apok, maysaak a babai a naladingit unay ti espirituna. Saanak nga imminom iti arak wenno naingel a mainom, ngem ibagbagak iti sangoanan ni Yahweh dagiti nakaro a panagladingitko.”
And Anna answered and said, Nay, my lord, [I live] in a hard day, and I have not drunk wine or strong drink, and I pour out my soul before the Lord.
16 “Saanmo nga ibilang nga awan babainna a babai ti adipenmo; iyeb-ebkasko iti napalalo a pannakaibabain ken pannakarkaritko.”
Count not your handmaid for a pestilent woman, for by reason of the abundance of my importunity I have continued [my prayer] until now.
17 Ket simmungbat ni Eli, kinunana, “Mapanka a sitatalna; patgan koma ti Dios ti Israel ti kiniddawmo kenkuana.”
And Heli answered and said to her, Go in peace: the God of Israel give you all your petition, which you have asked of him.
18 Kinuna ni Ana, “Nasayaat koma ti panangipapanmo iti adipenmo.” Ket pimmanaw ti babai ket nangan; saanen a naliday ti rupana.
And she said, Your handmaid has found favour in your eyes: and the woman went her way, and entered into her lodging, and ate and drank with her husband, and her countenance was no more sad.
19 Nasapada a bimmangon iti bigat ket nagdayawda kenni Yahweh, ket kalpasanna, nagsublida manen iti balayda idiay Rama. Kinaidda ni Elkana ni Ana nga asawana, ket nalagip isuna ni Yahweh.
And they rise early in the morning, and worship the Lord, and they go their way: and Helkana went into his house at Armathaim, and knew his wife Anna; and the Lord remembered her, and she conceived.
20 Idi dimteng ti tiempo, nagsikog ni Ana ket nagpasngay iti maysa a lalaki. Pinanagananna iti Samuel, kunana “Gapu ta dinawatko isuna kenni Yahweh.”
And it came to pass when the time was come, that she brought forth a son, and called his name Samuel, and said, Because I asked him of the Lord God of Sabaoth.
21 Iti naminsan pay, simmang-at ni Elkana ken ti amin a pamiliana, tapno mangidatag iti tinawen a daton ken tapno tungpalenna ti sapatana.
And the man Helkana and all his house went up to offer in Selom the yearly sacrifice, and his vows, and all the tithes of his land.
22 Ngem saan a napan ni Ana; kinunana iti asawana, “Saanak a mapan agingga a mapusot ti ubing, ket iyegkonto isuna, tapno agparang isuna iti sangoanan ni Yahweh ken agnaed sadiay iti agnanayon.”
But Anna did not go up with him, for she said to her husband, [I will not go up] until the child goes up, when I have weaned him, and he shall be presented before the Lord, and he shall abide there continually.
23 Kinuna ni Elkana nga asawana kenkuana, “Aramidem ti ammon a nasayaat kenka. Urayem agingga a mapusotmo isuna; patalgedan koma ngarud ni Yahweh ti saona.” Nagbati ngarud ti babai ken inaywananna ti anakna agingga a naipusotna isuna.
And Helkana her husband said to her, Do that which is good in your eyes, abide still until you shall have weaned him; but may the Lord establish that which comes out of your mouth: and the woman tarried, and suckled her son until she had weaned him.
24 Idi naipusot ni Ana ti anakna, inkuyogna isuna, nangitugot pay iti maysa a kalakian a baka a tallo ti tawenna, maysa nga efa a taraon, ken maysa a pagkargaan a lalat a naglaon iti arak, ket impanna isuna iti balay ni Yahweh idiay Silo. Ita, ubing pay ti anakna.
And she went up with him to Selom with a calf of three years old, and loaves, and an ephah of fine flour, and a bottle of wine: and she entered into the house of the Lord in Selom, and the child with them.
25 Pinartida ti kalakian a baka, ket impanda ti ubing kenni Eli.
And they brought him before the Lord; and his father killed his offering which he offered from year to year to the Lord; and he brought near the child, and killed the calf; and Anna the mother of the child brought him to Heli.
26 Kinuna ni Ana, “O, apok! Agingga a sibibiagka, apok, siak ti babai a nagtakder idi iti abaymo nga agkarkararag kenni Yahweh.
And she said, I pray you, my lord, as your soul lives, I [am] the woman that stood in your presence with you while praying to the Lord.
27 Ta daytoy nga ubing ket inkararagko ket inted ni Yahweh ti dinawatko kenkuana.
For this child I prayed; and the Lord has given me my request that I asked of him.
28 Intedkon isuna kenni Yahweh; agingga a sibibiag isuna ket agpaayto kenni Yahweh.” Ket sadiay, nagdayaw kenni Yahweh ni Elkana ken ti pamiliana.
And I lend him to the Lord all his days that he lives, a loan to the Lord: and she said,
