< Pirmā Samuela 1 >

1 Un viens vīrs bija no Ramatajim-Cofim, no Efraīma kalniem, Elkanus vārdā, Jeroama dēls, tas bija Elihus dēls, tas Tous dēls, tas Cuva dēls, no Efraīma cilts.
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 Šim bija divas sievas, vienai bija vārds Anna, un otras vārds bija Pennina, un Peninnai bija bērni, bet Annai bērnu nebija.
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 Un šis vīrs nogāja ik gadus no savas pilsētas, Dievu pielūgt un upurēt Tam Kungam Cebaot Šīlo. Un tur bija tie divi Elus dēli, Hofnus un Pinehas, Tam Kungam par priesteriem.
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 Un tai dienā, kad Elkanus upurēja, viņš savai sievai Peninnai un visiem viņas dēliem un meitām deva daļas.
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 Bet Annai viņš deva divkārtīgu daļu, jo viņš to Annu mīlēja, bet Tas Kungs viņas miesas bija aizslēdzis.
But to Hannah he gave one part, though Hannah was very dear to him, but the Lord had not let her have children.
6 Un viņas pretiniece viņu daudz apbēdināja un skumdināja kaitinādama, tādēļ ka Tas Kungs viņas miesas bija aizslēdzis.
And the other wife did everything possible to make her unhappy, because the Lord had not let her have children;
7 Un tā viņš darīja ik gadus, kad viņa nogāja Tā Kunga namā. Un šī viņu skumdināja, ka viņa raudāja un neēda.
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 Tad Elkanus, viņas vīrs, uz viņu sacīja: Anna, kāpēc tu raudi? Un kāpēc tu neēdi? Un kāpēc tava sirds noskumusi? Vai es tev neesmu labāks nekā desmit dēli?
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 Tad Anna cēlās, kad bija ēdusi un dzērusi Šīlo. Un Elus, tas priesteris, sēdēja uz krēsla pie stenderes Tā Kunga namā.
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 Un viņas sirds dziļumā bija noskumusi un pielūdza To Kungu un raudāja gauži.
And with grief in her soul, weeping bitterly, she made her prayer to the Lord.
11 Un viņa solīja solījumu un sacīja: Kungs Cebaot, ja Tu Savas kalpones bēdas uzlūkosi un mani pieminēsi un Savu kalponi neaizmirsīsi un dosi Savai kalponei dēlu, tad es to Tam Kungam došu visu viņa mūžu, un dzenamam nazim nebūs nākt uz viņa galvu.
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 Un kad viņa ilgi lūdza Tā Kunga priekšā, tad Elus viņas mutes (kustēšanu) lika vērā.
Now while she was a long time in prayer before the Lord, Eli was watching her mouth.
13 Jo Anna runāja savā sirdī un viņas lūpas tikai kustējās, bet viņas balss netapa dzirdēta, tāpēc Elum šķita, viņu esam piedzērušu.
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 Un Elus uz to sacīja: cik ilgi tu būsi piedzērusi? Lai tavs vīns no tevis atstājās.
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 Bet Anna atbildēja un sacīja: nē, mans kungs, es esmu sieva ar bēdīgu sirdi, es neesmu ne vīna nedz stipra dzēriena dzērusi, bet savu sirdi esmu izgāzusi priekš Tā Kunga.
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 Neturi savu kalponi par tādu negodīgu sievu, jo es līdz šim esmu runājusi aiz lielām sirds nopūtām un bēdām.
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 Tad Elus atbildēja un sacīja: ej ar mieru, lai Israēla Dievs tev dod tavu lūgumu, ko tu no Viņa lūgusi.
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 Un viņa sacīja: lai tava kalpone žēlastību atrod tavās acīs. Tad tā sieva nogāja savu ceļu un ēda un viņas vaigs vairs neraudzījās tik noskumis.
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 Un tie cēlās rītā agri un pielūdza Tā Kunga priekšā un griezās atpakaļ un nāca savā namā Rāmatā. Un Elkanus atzina Annu, savu sievu, un Tas Kungs viņu pieminēja.
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 Un pēc kāda laika Anna tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Samuēli, jo (viņa sacīja) es no Tā Kunga to esmu izlūgusies.
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 Kad nu tas vīrs, Elkanus, ar visu savu namu aizgāja, Tam Kungam upurēt to gadskārtējo upuri un savu solījumu,
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 Tad Anna negāja līdz, bet sacīja uz savu vīru: kad tas puisītis būs atšķirts, tad es viņu vedīšu, lai viņš rādās Tā Kunga priekšā un tur paliek mūžam.
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 Un Elkanus, viņas vīrs, uz to sacīja: dari, kā tev patīk, paliec šeitan, tiekams tu viņu būsi atšķīrusi; bet Tas Kungs lai piepilda Savu vārdu. Tā tā sieva palika un zīdīja savu dēlu, tiekams viņa to atšķīra.
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 Un kad viņa to bija atšķīrusi, tad viņa to veda sev līdz ar trim vēršiem un vienu ēfu miltu un vienu trauciņu ar vīnu, un noveda Tā Kunga namā uz Šīlo; un tas zēns bija vēl jauns.
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 Un tie nokāva vērsi un pieveda to zēnu pie Elus.
And when they had made an offering of the ox, they took the child to Eli.
26 Un tā sacīja: mans kungs, tik tiešām kā tava dvēsele dzīvo, mans kungs, es esmu tā sieva, kas šeitan pie tevis stāvēja, To Kungu lūgdama.
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 Es par šo bērnu esmu lūgusi, un Tas Kungs man devis manu lūgumu, ko es no Viņa esmu lūgusi.
My prayer was for this child; and the Lord has given him to me in answer to my request:
28 Tādēļ es to arī Tam Kungam kā izlūgtu esmu nodevusi visu mūžu, kamēr tas dzīvos, - viņš ir no Tā Kunga izlūgts. Un tie tur pielūdza To Kungu.
So I have given him to the Lord; for all his life he is the Lord's. Then he gave the Lord worship there.
