Pirmā Samuela 3
1 Un tas jauneklis Samuēls kalpoja Tam Kungam Elus priekšā, un Tā Kunga vārds bija dārgs tanī laikā, un parādīšanas notika reti.
And the lad Samuel was ministering unto the Lord before 'Eli. And the word of the Lord was scarce in those days: prophecy was not extended.
2 Un notikās tai laikā, kad Elus savā vietā gulēja, (un viņa acis jau sāka tumšas mesties, ka tas nevarēja redzēt),
And it came to pass one day, when 'Eli was lying down in his place, and his eyes had begun to grow dim, he could not see;
3 Un tas Dieva lukturis vēl nebija izdzisis, un Samuēls gulēja Tā Kunga namā, kur Dieva šķirsts bija.
And the lamp of God had not yet gone out, while Samuel was lying down in [the hall of] the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was;
4 Tad Tas Kungs Samuēli sauca, un šis sacīja: redzi, še es esmu,
That the Lord called Samuel: and he said, Here am I.
5 Un skrēja pie Elus un sacīja: redzi, še es esmu, jo tu mani esi saucis. Un viņš sacīja: es tevi neesmu saucis, ej atkal gulēt. Un tas gāja un apgūlās.
And he ran unto 'Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he said, I did not call: lie down again. And he went and lay down.
6 Tad Tas Kungs Samuēli atkal sauca. Un Samuēls cēlās un gāja pie Elus un sacīja: redzi, še es esmu, jo tu mani esi saucis. Viņš sacīja: es tevi neesmu saucis, mans dēls, ej atkal gulēt.
And the Lord continued to call again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to 'Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he answered, I did not call, my son: lie down again.
7 Bet Samuēls vēl nepazina To Kungu un Tā Kunga vārds tam vēl nebija parādīts.
And Samuel knew not yet the Lord, nor had the word of the Lord been as yet revealed unto him.
8 Tad Tas Kungs Samuēli atkal sauca trešu lāgu. Un tas cēlās un gāja pie Elus un sacīja: redzi, še es esmu, tu mani esi saucis. Tad Elus noprata, ka Tas Kungs to jaunekli sauca.
And the Lord continued to call, Samuel, the third time; and he arose and went to 'Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And 'Eli then perceived that the Lord was calling the lad.
9 Un Elus sacīja uz Samuēli: ej gulēt, un kad tevi sauks, tad saki: runā Kungs, jo Tavs kalps klausās. Un Samuēls gāja un apgūlās savā vietā.
And 'Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down; and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth. And Samuel went and lay down in his place.
10 Tad Tas Kungs nāca un nostājās un sauca kā papriekš: Samuēl, Samuēl! Un Samuēls sacīja: runā, jo Tavs kalps klausās.
And the Lord came, and placed himself, and called as at previous times, Samuel, Samuel. And Samuel said, Speak; for thy servant heareth.
11 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Samuēli: redzi, Es ko darīšu iekš Israēla, ka visiem, kas to dzirdēs, abās ausīs skanēs.
And the Lord said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle.
12 Tanī dienā Es pret Elu visu izdarīšu, ko pret viņa namu esmu runājis: Es to sākšu un arī pabeigšu.
On that day will I fulfill on 'Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house: I will begin and finish.
13 Jo Es tam esmu ziņu devis, ka Es soģis būšu pār viņa namu mūžīgi tā nozieguma dēļ, ka viņš zinājis, kā viņa bērni sev lāstus krājās, un tiem to nav liedzis.
And I tell him that I will judge his house for ever; for the iniquity that he knew that his sons were drawing a curse on themselves, and he restrained them not.
14 Un tādēļ Es Elus namam esmu zvērējis, ka Elus nama noziegums nemūžam netaps salīdzināts ne caur kaujamiem, ne caur ēdamiem upuriem.
And therefore have I sworn unto the house of 'Eli, that the iniquity of 'Eli's house shall not be atoned for with sacrifice or meat-offering for ever.
15 Un Samuēls gulēja līdz rītam, un tad viņš atvēra Tā Kunga nama durvis, bet Samuēls bijās šo parādīšanu Elum stāstīt.
And Samuel lay until the morning, when he opened the doors of the house of the Lord; and Samuel feared to tell the vision unto 'Eli.
16 Tad Elus Samuēli aicināja un sacīja: Samuēl, mans dēls. Un tas atbildēja: redzi, še es esmu.
But 'Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he said, Here am I.
17 Un viņš sacīja: kas tas par vārdu, ko Viņš uz tevi runājis? Neslēp jel to man; lai Dievs tev šā un tā dara, ja tu man vienu vārdu apslēpsi no visiem, ko Viņš uz tevi runājis.
And he said, What is the word which he hath spoken unto thee? do not, I pray thee, conceal it from me: may God do to thee thus, and continue to do so, if thou conceal any thing from me of all the word that he hath spoken unto thee.
18 Tad Samuēls tam stāstīja visus tos vārdus un tam nekā neapslēpa. Un tas sacīja: Viņš ir Tas Kungs, lai Viņš dara, ko Viņš pats redz labu esam.
And Samuel told him all the words, and concealed nothing from him. And he said, He is the Lord: let him do what seemeth good in his eyes.
19 Un Samuēls uzauga, un Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, un Viņš nevienam no Saviem vārdiem nelika zemē krist.
And Samuel grew up, and the Lord was with him, and he did not let fall any one of all his words to the ground.
20 Un viss Israēls no Dana līdz Bēršebai atzina, ka Samuēls bija Tā Kunga uzticīgais pravietis.
And thus knew all Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba' that Samuel was accredited as a prophet of the Lord.
21 Un Tas Kungs vēl parādījās Šīlo, jo Tas Kungs parādījās Samuēlim Šīlo caur Tā Kunga vārdu.
And the Lord continued to appear in Shiloh; for the Lord revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the Lord.
