1 Samoela 2
1 Nitalaho t’i Khanà, ami‘ty hoe: Mirebek’ am’ Iehovà ty troko, mionjoñe am’ Iehovà ty tsifako; misokak’ amo rafelahikoo ty vavako; le jejoeko ty fandrombahañe ahy.
And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart is glad in the Lord, my horn is exalted through the Lord: my mouth is enlarged over my enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.
2 Leo raike tsy masiñe manahak’ Iehovà toe tsy ie naho ts’ Ihe; vaho tsy eo ty lamilamy hambañe aman’ Añaharen-tika.
There is none holy like the Lord; for there is none beside thee; and there is not any rock like our God.
3 Ko mivolam-pirengevohañe avao; ko metea’o hiakatse am-palie’o ty fitoeborañe; amy te Andrianañahare mahilala t’Iehovà; ama’e ty andanjàñe o satao.
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogance come out of your mouth; for a God of knowledge is the Lord, and by him are actions weighed.
4 Nipozake ty fale’ o fanalolahio, le nampiombeañe haozarañe o nikoletrao.
The bow of the mighty is broken, and those that stumbled are girded with strength.
5 Nikarama hahazoa’e mofo o nivontsiñeo; anjañe ka o nilingoao; nisamake fito ty betsiterake, vaho ninìke i nimaro anakey.
They that were full hire themselves out for bread; and they that were hungry cease [from labor]: while the barren hath born seven, she that hath many children fadeth away.
6 Mamono t’Iehovà, mbore mameloñe; manjotso mb’an-tsikeokeok’ ao, vaho mañakatse boak’ao. (Sheol h7585)
The Lord killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. (Sheol h7585)
7 Maha poi’e t’Iehovà naho mampañaleale; mamotsake vaho mañonjoñe.
The Lord maketh poor and maketh rich: he bringeth low and also lifteth up.
8 Atroa’e boak’ an-debok’ ao o poie’eo, naho ongaha’e boak’am-porompots’ ao ty rarake, hampiambesare’e amo roandriañeo, handova’e i fiambesan-engeñey; Iehovà ro faha-ty voatse toy, vaho najado’e ama’e ty tane toy.
He raiseth up out of the dust the poor, from the dunghill he lifteth up the needy, to set them among nobles, and he assigneth them the throne of glory; for the Lord's are the pillars of the earth, on which he hath set the world.
9 Hambena’e ty fandia’ o masi’eo, fe hampitsiñeñe añ’ieñ’ ao o lo-tserekeo; fa tsy haozarañe ty handreketa’ ondatio.
He ever guardeth the feet of his pious ones, and the wicked shall be made silent in darkness; for not by strength can man prevail.
10 Ho demodemoheñe o mifandietse amy Iehovào; hangotroha’e boak’ an-dikerañe ao; ho zakae’ Iehovà o olon-taneo; le hampaozare’e i mpanjaka’ey, vaho haonjo’e ty tsifa’ i noriza’ey.
The Lord—his adversaries will be crushed; out of heaven will he thunder upon them: the Lord will judge the ends of the earth; and he will give strength unto his king, and lift up the horn of his anointed.
11 Aa le nimpoly mb’añ’anjomba’e mb’e Ramà mb’eo t’i Elkanà; vaho nitoroñe Iehovà añatrefa’ i Elý mpisoroñe i ajajay.
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the lad was ministering unto the Lord before 'Eli the priest.
12 Ondaty tsi-vokatse i ana-dahi’ i Ely rey, tsy nahafohiñe Iehovà.
And the sons of 'Eli were worthless men: they knew not the Lord.
13 Inao ty sata’ i mpisoroñe rey am’ ondatio: Naho mañenga soroñe t’indaty, ie mbe mandeve i henay, le mb’eo ty mpitoro’ i mpisoroñe rey reketse fitsovohan-kena telo fitsipoke am-pità’e;
And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while [the man] was seething the flesh, with a fork with three teeth in his hand;
14 vaho atsovo’e ke an-kitra ao, ke añ’ana-kalañe, ke am-balàñe, hera an-tsajoa; le ze akare’ i fitsovohan-kenay ty endese’ i mpisoroñey ho aze. Nanoe’ iareo amy ze hene ana’ Israele niheo mb’e Silò mb’eo Izay.
And he struck it into the pan, or the kettle, or the caldron, or the pot; [and] all that the fork brought up the priest took away with it. So did they unto all the Israelites that came thither, to Shiloh.
15 Eka, ie mbe tsy nahatoeñe i solikey le nimb’eo ty mpitoro’ i mpisoroñey nanao ty hoe amy ‘ndaty nanao soroñey: Anoloro hena hatono’ay ho a i mpisoroñey; fa tsy ho no’e ama’o ty hena nahandroeñe; i mantay ty paiae’e.
Even before they had yet burnt the fat, the priest's servant would come, and say to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not take from thee sodden flesh, but raw.
16 Aa naho nanoa’ indatiy ty hoe: Angao hahatoeñe hey o henao, vaho alao ze satrin’ arofo’o; le nanoa’e ty hoe: Aiy! atoloro ahy hey tsy mone ho tavaneko.
And if the man said unto him, They will surely presently burn the fat, and then take whatever thy soul may long for: then would he say, No; but thou shalt give it me now; and if not, I will take it by force.
17 Toe jabajaba añatrefa’ Iehovà ty hakeo’ i ajalahy rey; amy te nimavoe’ iareo o engaeñe amy Iehovào.
And the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord; for the men despised the offering of the Lord.
18 Ie amy zao nitoroñe añatrefa’ Iehovà t’i Samoele, an-kitambe leny, ie mb’e ajaja.
But Samuel was ministering before the Lord, being a lad, girded with a linen ephod.
19 Le zinain-drene’e ho aze ty saroñe kedekedeke vaho natolo’e aze boa-taoñe amy lia’e mb’eo mindre amy vali’e mpañenga sorom-boa-taoñey.
Moreover his mother used to make him a little overcoat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
20 Nitatae’ i Elý t’i Elkanà naho i tañanjomba’ey ami’ty hoe: Hatolo’ Iehovà ama’o abey añami’ty rakemba toy ty tiry hisolo i nihalaliañe am’ Iehovày. Le nimpoly mb’añ’ anjomba’ iareo mb’eo.
And 'Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, May the Lord give thee seed from this woman instead of the loan who is lent to the Lord. And they went back unto his place.
21 Aa le nahatiahy i Khanà t’Iehovà, le niaren-dre, vaho nahasamak’ ana-dahy telo naho anak’ampela roe. Nitombo añatrefa’ Iehovà t’i Samoele.
And truly the Lord visited Hannah, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the lad Samuel grew up before the Lord.
22 Nigain-kantetse t’i Elý; naho jinanji’e iaby o sata’ i ana’e rey amy Israeleo, naho t’ie nifandia tihy amo rakemba mpitoroñe an-dalan-kivohom-pamantañañeo.
Now 'Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons were in the habit of doing unto all Israel; and how they would lie with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
23 Le nanoe’e ty hoe: Ino ty anoe’ areo ze o raha zao? Raty ty italilia’ ondaty iabio.
And he said unto them, Why will ye do such things? for I hear of your evil dealings from all this people.
24 Tsy mete izay, ry anako; toe tsy soa ty talily tsanoñeko te ampandilare’ areo ondati’ Iehovào.
No, my sons; for the report that I hear is not good, which the Lord's people spread abroad.
25 Naho aman-kakeo ama’ ondaty t’indaty, le ho zakaem-pizaka; fe naho aman-tahiñe am’Iehovà t’indaty, ia ty hañalañalañe ho aze? Fe tsy hinao’ iareo ty fiarañanañan-drae’ iareo, fa toe satri’ Iehovà t’ie hampihomaheñe.
If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him; but if against the Lord a man should sin, who shall pray for him? Nevertheless would they not hearken unto the voice of their father, because the Lord desired to slay them.
26 Mbe nitombo erike t’i Samoele ajajay, nionjoñe am-pañisoha’ Iehovà vaho am’ondatio.
And the lad Samuel was constantly growing and increasing in favor both with the Lord, and also with men.
27 Nomb’amy Elý amy zao ty ondatin’ Añahare, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Tsy niboake malange añ’anjomban-droae’o hao iraho, ie te Mitsraime añe añatrefan’ anjomba’ i Parò?
And there came a man of God unto 'Eli, and said unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Did I [not] appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt, in Pharaoh's house?
28 Tsy jinoboko amo hene’ fifokoa’ Israeleo hao re ho mpisoroko, hionjoñe mb’ amy kitrelikoy mb’eo hañemboke naho hisikiñe kitambe añatrefako? Mbore fonga natoloko aman’ anjomban-drae’o o nengae’ o ana’ Israeleo horoañe añ’ afoo?
And did I [not] choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to me as a priest, to offer upon my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I [not] give unto the house of thy father all the fire-offerings of the children of Israel?
29 Ino arè ty itimpaha’ areo o fisoroñañe ahikoo naho o engaeñe amakoo, o nandiliako hanoeñe amy fimoneñakoio, vaho iasia’o ambone ahy o ana’oo, amondraha’ areo sandriñe amy ze hene voli-hena engae’ ondatiko Israeleo?
Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at my meat-offering, which I have commanded in [my] habitation? and [why] honoredst thou thy sons above me, to fatten yourselves with the first of every offering of Israel my people?
30 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele: Toe vinolako i anjomba’oy, naho i anjomban-droae’oy, ty hañavelo añatrefako eo nainai’e; fa hoe ka t’Iehovà henane zao: ho lavitse amako izay; hiasiako ze miasy ahy, le tsy honjoneko ze manirìka ahy.
Therefore saith the Lord the God of Israel, I had indeed said, Thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever; but now, saith the Lord, Be it far from me; for those that honor me will I honor, and those that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
31 Inao! ho tondroke ty andro, te haitoako ama’o ty fita’o havana, naho ty fitàn’ anjomban-drae’o le tsy ho ama’ ondaty antetse ka ty añ’anjomba’o ao.
Behold, days are coming, that I will hew off thy arm, and the arm of thy father's house, so that there shall not be an old man in thy house.
32 Hahaisake rafelahy an-kibohoko ao irehe, amy ze hene hasoa hanoe’e am’Israele; ihe tsy ho ama’ ondaty bey añ’anjomba’o ao kitro-katroke.
And thou shalt behold a rival in my habitation, in all that by which he will do good for Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thy house in all times.
33 Toe tsy hene haitoako amy kitrelikoy o ondati’oo, fa ho nampilesa ty fihaino’o naho hampioremeñeñe ty arofo’o fe fonga hihomake o tirin’ anjomba’oo t’ie mbe ajalahy.
And yet I will not cut off the men descended from thee from my altar, to consume thy eyes, and to grieve thy soul: and all the increase of thy house shall die as [vigorous] men.
34 Aa zao ty ho viloñe ama’o: Hifetsak’ amy ana-dahi’o roe rey, amy Kofný naho i Pinekàse, te toe hitrao-pivetrak’ ami’ty andro raike—ie roe.
And this shall be unto thee the sign, that shall happen on thy two sons, on Chophni and Phinehas: On one day shall they, both of them, die.
35 Fe hatroako ty mpisoroñe migahiñe, ie ty hañeneke ze an-troko naho am-pitsakoreako; le handranjiako anjomba fatratse vaho hitoroñe añatrefa’ i norizakoy nainai’e re.
And I will raise up to me a faithful priest, who shall do in accordance with what is in my heart and in my mind; and I will build for him an enduring house; and he shall walk before my anointed in all times.
36 Ie amy zao, songa homb’eo ze sehanga’e añ’akiba’o ao, hidrakadrakak’ ama’e hahazoa’e ty volafoty naho ty vonga-mofo ami’ty hoe: ehe gineo hitoloñeko ho mpisoroñe hihinanako mofo pilipito’e.
And it shall come to pass, that whoever is left in thy house shall come to bow down to him for a gera of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say, Attach me, I pray thee, unto one of the priestly offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
