< 1 Samue 1 >
1 Hagi mago nera Elkana'e nehia ne' mani'ne. Hagi ana nera Rama kumateti Efraemi naga'pinti nekino, nefa agi'a Jerohamu'e. Hagi negeho agi'a Elihu'e, agigomofo agi'a Tuhu'e.
Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim, a Zuphite of the hill-country of Ephraim, named Elkanah; he was the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:
2 Hagi Elkana'a tare a' zanante'neankino magomofo agi'a Hanaki, magomo'a Penina'e. Hagi Penina'a mofavrea ante'neanki, Hana'a mofavre onte'ne.
And he had two wives, one named Hannah and the other Peninnah: and Peninnah was the mother of children, but Hannah had no children.
3 Hagi mago mago kafurera Elkana'a a' mofavre'a zamavareno atruhu seli mono noma Sailo me'nerega vuno, Hanavenentake Ra Anumzamofontera monora ome nehuno kresramana vutere hu'ne. Hagi ana knafina Ra Anumzamofo pristi nera Eli mani'neankino, tare mofavre'amokizni zanagi'a Hofanie'ene Finiasike. Hagi zanagra neznafana aza huke ana knafina pristi eri'zana eri'na'e.
Now this man went up from his town every year to give worship and to make offerings to the Lord of armies in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.
4 Hagi Elkana'ma ofama erino'ma egezama kresramnama vazanknarera Peninane maka ne'mofa'anena ana ofafintira ame'a refako huno zamitere hu'ne.
And when the day came for Elkanah to make his offering, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, their part of the feast:
5 Hianagi Hanana Ra Anumzamo'a rimpa erigigeno mofavrea onte'neanagi, Elkana'a avesinteno ante agofetu huno ofama nehifintira rama'a zantami amitere hu'ne.
But to Hannah he gave one part, though Hannah was very dear to him, but the Lord had not let her have children.
6 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Hanama rimpama erigigeno mofavrema onte'nea zankura Penina'a kiza zokago ke hunteno, maka knafina azeri haviza hutere higeno, rimpamo'a ata negrigeno asunku zampi Hana'a manitere hu'ne.
And the other wife did everything possible to make her unhappy, because the Lord had not let her have children;
7 Hagi kafune kafunema Ra Anumzamofo seli mono nontegama vuterema nehazageno'a, Penina'a Hanana ana kege huntetere nehuno, arimpa eri haviza nehigeno Hana'a zaviraneteno ne'zana onetere hu'ne.
And year by year, whenever she went up to the house of the Lord, she kept on attacking her, so that Hannah gave herself up to weeping and would take no food.
8 Ana'ma higeno'a neve' Elkana'a amanage hu'ne, Nahigenka ne'zana a'o nehankeno krimpa haviza nehigenka zavira netane? Kagra 10ni'a Mofavre antegahananagi antahintahikafina nagrikura kavesinantegahane.
Then her husband Elkanah said to her, Hannah, why are you weeping? and why are you taking no food? why is your heart troubled? am I not more to you than ten sons?
9 Hagi mago zupa Sailo kumate mani'ne'za ne'zane tinema nevagaretazageno, Hana'a otino nunamu hunaku mono nontega vu'ne. Hagi ana knarera pristi ne' Eli'a Ra Anumzamofo seli mono nonpima ufre kahante pristi vahe'ma nemaniza trate mani'ne.
So after they had taken food and wine in the guest room, Hannah got up. Now Eli the priest was seated by the pillars of the doorway of the Temple of the Lord.
10 Hagi Hana'a rama'a asunku nehuno zavira neteno agu'areti huno Ra Anumzamofontega nunamuna nehuno,
And with grief in her soul, weeping bitterly, she made her prayer to the Lord.
11 Ra Anumzamofontega amanage huno huvempagea hu'ne, Ra Anumzana hanavenentake hu'namoka eri'za akamo'na natazana negenka, kasunku hunantenka ne' mofavrea nami'nanke'na, ete ana mofavrea Ra Anumzamoka kagri kaminenkeno, mika zupa kagrane manigahie. Hagi ana mofavrema Ra Anumzamokare'ma azeri ruotge hu avame'zama mesiana, azokara oharetfa hugahie.
And she made an oath, and said, O Lord of armies, if you will truly take note of the sorrow of your servant, not turning away from me but keeping me in mind, and will give me a man-child, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and his hair will never be cut.
12 Hagi Hanama antahintahifima nunamuma huno Ra Anumzamofoma antahinegegeno'a Eli'a ana a'mofo agipi keteno mani'ne.
Now while she was a long time in prayer before the Lord, Eli was watching her mouth.
13 Hana'a antahintahifi nunamuna nehigeno, agi'mo'a kaza hianagi nunamuma hia agerura Eli'a ontahi'ne. Ana'ma hia zankura Eli'a agesama antahiana Hana'a akati ne'neno negi ne'negahie huno hu'ne.
For Hannah's prayer came from her heart, and though her lips were moving she made no sound: so it seemed to Eli that she was overcome with wine.
14 Anage nehuno Eli'a amanage hu'ne, Aka ti nenenka neginenananki aka tima nenanazana atro.
And Eli said to her, How long are you going to be the worse for drink? Put away the effects of your wine from you.
15 Hianagi Hana'a kenona'a amanage hu'ne, ra ne'moka nagra anara osu'noanki, nagu'afina knaza me'nege'na ana knazani'a eri'na Ra Anumzamofontega eme huama nehue.
And Hannah, answering him, said, No, my lord, I am a woman whose spirit is broken with sorrow: I have not taken wine or strong drink, but I have been opening my heart before the Lord.
16 Hagi nagrikura havi are hunka kagesa antahionamio, nagra nasuzampine, nata zampi mani'ne'na nunamuna nehue.
Do not take your servant to be a good-for-nothing woman: for my words have come from my stored-up sorrow and pain.
17 Higeno Eli'a kenona amanage hu'ne, Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a antahigana zana amane kamigahianki, krimpa fru nehunka vuo.
Then Eli said to her, Go in peace: and may the God of Israel give you an answer to the prayer you have made to him.
18 Higeno Hana'a huno, ra ne'moka eri'za akamo'na antahinamio, huno Elina nesamino vuno ne'zana ome neneno, mago'ene asuzampina omani'ne.
And she said, May your servant have grace in your eyes. So the woman went away, and took part in the feast, and her face was no longer sad.
19 Hagi anante nanterana maka naga'mo'za oti'za Ra Anumzamofo avuga monora hute'za, ete kumazamirega Rama vu'naze. Hagi Elkana'a nenaro Hanana anteno masegeno, Ra Anumzamo'a Hana'ma nunamuma hu'nea zanku antahimi'ne.
And early in the morning they got up, and after worshipping before the Lord they went back to Ramah, to their house: and Elkanah had connection with his wife; and the Lord kept her in mind.
20 Ana higeno Hana'a amu'ene huno ne' mofavre kasenteno, Ra Anumzamofo antahigogeno namie nehuno, Samueli'e huno agi'a antemi'ne.
Now the time came when Hannah, being with child, gave birth to a son; and she gave him the name Samuel, Because, she said, I made a prayer to the Lord for him.
21 Hagi anante kafurera Elkana'a a' mofavre'ane kafugu kafugu'ma Ra Anumzamofontega kre sramana nevazaza hu'za kresramana nevu'za, huvempa kema hu'nea kema eri knare hanagu Sailo kumate vu'naze.
And the man Elkanah with all his family went up to make the year's offering to the Lord, and to give effect to his oath.
22 Hianagi Hana'a zamagranena marerino ovu nemanino amanage huno nevena asami'ne, Mofavremo'ma amima atresanige'na avre'na vanugeno Ra Anumzamofo nompi umani vava hugahie.
But Hannah did not go, for she said to her husband, I will not go till the child has been taken from the breast, and then I will take him with me and put him before the Lord, where he may be for ever.
23 Higeno Elkana'a kenona'a hunteno kagrama antahisankeno knare'ma haniaza hunka maninenka mofavre amina neminka azeri ra huo. Hagi mani'negeno Ra Anumzamofonte'ma huvempage hu'nana zana kazeri knare hanie. Higeno Hana'a ovu mani'neno mofavrea kegava huso'e nehigeno, ra huno amina atre'ne.
And her husband Elkanah said to her, Do whatever seems right to you, but not till you have taken him from the breast; only may the Lord do as he has said. So the woman, waiting there, gave her son milk till he was old enough to be taken from the breast.
24 Hagi ana mofavremo'ma rama huno amima netregeno'a osi mofavre mani'neanagi nerera'a nevreno, 3'a kafu hu'nea bulimakaonki, 10ni'a kilo hu'nea flauaki, mago tafempi waini tina e'nerino, ana mofavrenena avreno Ra Anumzamofo nontega Sailo kumate marerino vu'ne.
Then when she had done so, she took him with her, with a three-year old ox and an ephah of meal and a skin full of wine, and took him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh: now the child was still very young.
25 Hagi ana bulimakaoma ahegite'za, ana mofavrea avre'za Elinte vu'naze.
And when they had made an offering of the ox, they took the child to Eli.
26 Hana'a amanage huno Elina asami'ne, ranimoke, ko'ma tava'onire'ma amare'ma mani'nankena'ma, Ra Anumzamofoma antahige'noa a' oe.
And she said, O my lord, as your soul is living, my lord, I am that woman who was making a prayer to the Lord here by your side:
27 Ama mofavrea nunamu hu'na Ra Anumzamofo antahigogeno nunamuni'ama antahinamino nami'nea mofavre.
My prayer was for this child; and the Lord has given him to me in answer to my request:
28 Ana hu'negu menina ama mofavrea Ra Anumzamofo ami vagaroankino mani'noma vania knafina Ra Anumzamofo vahere huno manino vugahie. Na'ankure ana mofavremo'a Ra Anumzamofo nompi mika kna mani'neno, Ra Anumzamofo eri'zana erigahie. Higeno agra anampi Ra Anumzamofo agi erisga hu'ne.
So I have given him to the Lord; for all his life he is the Lord's. Then he gave the Lord worship there.
