1 Samue 3

1 Hagi Samueli'a mofavre mani'neno Elina aza huno Ra Anumzamofo avuga pristi eri'zana eri'ne. Hagi ana knafina rama'a kafufi Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahera keaga huozami'ne. Hagi magoke magoke knazupa, ava'nagna zana zamaveri hutere hu'ne.

Now the young Samuel was the servant of the Lord before Eli. In those days the Lord kept his word secret from men; there was no open vision.

2 Hagi Elina avumo'a agafa huno asu higeno keso'e osuno, mago kinaga Ra Anumzamofo nompi tafe'are mase'ne.

And at that time, when Eli was resting in his place, (now his eyes were becoming clouded so that he was not able to see, )

3 Hagi Ra Anumzamofo nompima lamu tavi'ma rekruma hunte'naza tavi'mo'a asura osu'negeno, Samueli'a Hanavenentake Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage ante vogisima me'nea seli mono nompi mase'ne.

And the light of God was still burning, while Samuel was sleeping in the Temple of the Lord where the ark of God was,

4 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina agihegeno, Samuelia kenona huno, Ama mani'noe.

The voice of the Lord said Samuel's name; and he said, Here am I.

5 Nehuno anampinti Samueli'a otino Elinte vuno, na'anku hanke'na oe, higeno Eli'a huno, Kagrira kea osu'noanki ete vunka umaso.

And running to Eli he said, Here am I, for you said my name. And Eli said, I did not say your name; go to your rest again. So he went back to his bed.

6 Hagi ete mago'ane Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina agi higeno, Samueli'a otino Elinte vuno, Ama mani'noanki na'anku hankena oe, higeno Eli'a huno, Nagra kea osu'noanki mofavrenimoka vunka umaso.

And again the Lord said, Samuel. And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. But he said in answer, I said nothing, my son; go to your rest again.

7 Hagi Samueli'a Ra Anumzamofona keno antahinora osu'ne. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a kora agritera eama huno keaga higeno keno antahino osu'negu, anara hu'ne.

Now at that time Samuel had no knowledge of the Lord, and the revelation of the word of the Lord had not come to him.

8 Hagi nampa 3 zupama Ra Anumzamo'a kema higeno'a, Samueli'a otino Elinte vuno, Kagrama kema hanana ama mani'noe huno ome asami'geno anante Eli'a antahi ama nehuno, Ra Anumzamo ama ana risera kea hunemie huno antahi'ne.

And for the third time the Lord said Samuel's name. And he got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. Then it was clear to Eli that the voice which had said the child's name was the Lord's.

9 Hagi Eli'a anage huno Samuelina asami'ne, Ete vunka umasenegeno mago'enema kagima hanigenka, kenona huntenka Ra Anumzamoka eri'za vahekamo'na nentahuanki nasamio hunka huo, huno nesamino ete huntegeno Samueli'a vuno tafe'are umase'ne.

So Eli said to Samuel, Go back: and if the voice comes again, let your answer be, Say on, Lord; for the ears of your servant are open. So Samuel went back to his bed.

10 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a tavaonte eme otino ko'ma hu'neaza huno, Samueliwe, Samueliwe higeno Samueli'a huno, Ra Anumzamoka eri'za vahekamo'na nentahuanki nasamio.

Then the Lord came and said as before, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel made answer, Say on, Lord; for the ears of your servant are open.

11 Higeno Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina asamino, Antahio Nagra menina Israeli vahepina, antari hanazaza eri fore hugahuankino iza'o ana zamofo agenkema antahisimo'a antri nehuno na'a fore nehie huno hugahie.

And the Lord said to Samuel, See, I will do a thing in Israel at which the ears of everyone hearing of it will be burning.

12 Hagi Eli naga'ma zamazeri haviza hugahuema hu'na koro ke'ma huzmante'noa kemofona amage ante'na agafareti eri agafa hute'na zamazeri haviza hume vu'na, ome vagaretega zamazeri haviza hu vagaregahue.

In that day I will do to Eli everything which I have said about his family, from first to last.

13 Hagi Eli naga'ma zamazeri haviza hugahuema hu'na kore kema huzmante'noa kemo'a mevava huno vugahie. Na'ankure agri mofavre'mokea kefo zanavu'znavama nehake'na, zanazeri haviza hugahuema huankea, agra antahino keno hu'neanagi, haviza neha'e huno znazeri fatgohu kea ozanasami'ne.

And you are to say to him that I will send punishment on his family for ever, for the sin which he had knowledge of; because his sons have been cursing God and he had no control over them.

14 E'ina hu'negu Nagra huvempage huankino Eli naga'mo'zama kresramna hanaza ofaretiro, witi ofaretira nona hu'za kumi'zmia apaosegahaze.

So I have made an oath to the family of Eli that no offering of meat or of meal which they may make will ever take away the sin of his family.

15 Hagi anagema hutegeno'a Samueli'a vuno umase'negeno vuno ko'atune. Hagi nanterana Ra Anumzamofo mono nomofo kafana ko'ma nehiaza huno anagi'neanagi Ra Anumzamo'ma ava'nagna zampima asami'nea nanekema Elima asami'zankura Samueli'a koro hu'ne.

And Samuel kept where he was, not moving till the time came for opening the doors of the house of God in the morning. And fear kept him from giving Eli an account of his vision.

16 Hianagi Eli'a kezatino, Nenamofo Samueliwe, higeno Samueli'a kenona huno, Ama mani'noe.

Then Eli said, Samuel, my son. And Samuel answering said, Here am I.

17 Higeno Eli'a Samuelina antahigeno, Na'ane huno Ra Anumzamo'a kasaminefi ana nanekea magore hunka eri fra'okinka nasamio? Hagi kagrama ana mika nanekema eri frakisankeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a kagrira mago'ene knazana erinte agofetu huno kazeri haviza hugahie.

And he said, What did the Lord say to you? Do not keep it from me: may God's punishment be on you if you keep from me anything he said to you.

18 Anage higeno Samueli'a Ra Anumzamo'ma asami'nea nanekea maka asami vagaregeno, Eli'a ana kenona huno, Atregeno Agra'a Ra Anumzamoke agri'ma avesi'nia zana hino.

Then Samuel gave him an account of everything, keeping nothing back. And he said, It is the Lord; let him do what seems good to him.

19 Anama hutegeno Ra Anumzamo'a Samueli'ene mani'negeno nena huno rana nehigeno, maka nanekema Samueli'ma hu'nea nanekemo'a amnezanknara osu'ne.

And Samuel became older, and the Lord was with him and let not one of his words be without effect.

20 Hagi noti kaziga Dani kumateti agafa huteno, vuno sauti kaziga Bersiva kumate'ma mani'za uhanati'naza maka Israeli vahe'mo'za Samuelinkura Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa ne' efore hie hu'za hu'naze.

And it was clear to all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba that Samuel had been made a prophet of the Lord.

21 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Sailo kumatera seli mono nompi mago'ene Samuelintera efore huno kea eme asamitere hu'ne.

And the Lord was seen again in Shiloh; for the Lord gave to Samuel in Shiloh the revelation of his word.
