< Samuu'Eel Kowaad 1 >
1 Waxaa jiray nin reer Raamaatayim Soofiim ahaa oo degganaa dalkii buuraha lahaa ee reer Efrayim, magiciisana waxaa la odhan jiray Elqaanaah, oo wuxuu ahaa ina Yeroxaam, ina Eliihuu, ina Toohuu, ina Suuf, wuxuuna ahaa reer Efraad;
There was a certain man of Ramathaim of the Zuphites, of the hill country of Ephraim; his name was Elkanah son of Jeroham son of Elihu son of Tohu son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
2 oo wuxuu lahaa laba naagood, middood magaceeda waxaa la odhan jiray Xannaah, tan kale magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Feninnaah. Feninnaah carruur bay lahayd, laakiinse Xannaah carruur ma lahayn.
He had two wives; the name of the first was Hannah, and the name of the second was Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none.
3 Oo ninkaasu sannad ka sannad wuxuu ka bixi jiray magaaladiisa, oo wuxuu u tegi jiray inuu Rabbiga Ciidammada Shiiloh ku caabudo oo allabari u bixiyo. Oo Ceelii labadiisii wiil oo ahaa Hofnii iyo Fiinexaas, ee Rabbiga wadaaddo u ahaana halkaasay joogeen.
This man went from his city year after year to worship and to sacrifice to Yahweh of hosts in Shiloh. The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to Yahweh, were there.
4 Oo Elqaanaah maalintii uu allabariga bixiyey ayuu qayb siiyey naagtiisii Feninnaah iyo wiilasheedii iyo gabdhaheedii oo dhan,
When the day came for Elkanah to sacrifice each year, he always gave portions of the meat to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters.
5 laakiinse Xannaah wuxuu siiyey qayb labanlaab ah; maxaa yeelay, Xannaah wuu jeclaa, laakiinse Rabbigaa maxalkeedii xidhay.
But to Hannah he always gave a double portion, for he loved Hannah, although Yahweh had closed her womb.
6 Tii dhibi jirtay ayaa aad uga cadhaysiisay, si ay uga xanaajiso, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigaa maxalkeedii xidhay.
Her rival provoked her severely in order to irritate her, because Yahweh had closed her womb.
7 Oo intuu saas yeelayay sannad ka sannad, markii ay gurigii Rabbiga tagtay, ayay ka xanaajisay iyadii, taas daraaddeed way ooyday, oo waxba ma ay cunin.
So year after year, when she went up to the house of Yahweh with her family, her rival always provoked her. Therefore she used to weep and eat nothing.
8 Markaasaa ninkeedii Elqaanaah wuxuu iyadii ku yidhi, Xannaah, maxaad u ooyaysaa? Oo maxaad wax u cuni weyday? Oo maxaa qalbigaagu u xumaaday? Miyaanan anigu toban wiil kaaga wanaagsanayn?
Elkanah her husband always said to her, “Hannah, why do you weep? Why do you not eat? Why is your heart sad? Am I not better to you than ten sons?”
9 Saas aawadeed Xannaah way kacday markii ay Shiiloh wax ku cuneen oo ay wax cabbeen dabadeed. Haddaba wadaadkii Ceelii ahaa wuxuu ku fadhiistay kursigiisii oo ag yiil macbudka Ilaah tiirkiisa.
On one of these occasions, Hannah rose up after they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh. Now Eli the priest was sitting upon his seat by the doorway to the temple of Yahweh.
10 Iyadu aad bay u murugootay, oo intay ooyday ayay Rabbiga bariday.
She was deeply distressed; she prayed to Yahweh and wept bitterly.
11 Markaasay nidar nidartay, oo waxay tidhi, Rabbiga Ciidammadow, haddaad fiirisid dhibta aan anoo addoontaada ah qabo, oo aad i soo xusuusatid, ee aadan i illoobin anoo addoontaada ah, laakiinse aad i siiso wiil, de markaas cimrigiisa oo dhan waan ku siinayaa, Rabbiyow, oo madaxiisana mandiil lama marin doono.
She made a vow and said, “Yahweh of hosts, if you will look on the affliction of your servant and call me to mind, and do not forget your servant, but give your servant a son, then I will give him to Yahweh all the days of his life, and no razor will ever touch his head.”
12 Oo intii ay Rabbiga hortiisa ku baryootamaysay ayuu Ceelii fiiriyey afkeedii.
As she continued praying before Yahweh, Eli watched her mouth.
13 Haddaba Xannaah waxay ka hadlaysay qalbigeeda, oo bushimaheeda keliya ayaa dhaqdhaqaaqayay, laakiinse codkeedii lama maqlin; sidaas daraaddeed Ceelii wuxuu mooday inay sakhraantay.
Hannah spoke in her heart. Her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she was drunk.
14 Markaasaa Ceelii wuxuu iyadii ku yidhi, Ilaa gormaad sakhraamaysaa? Khamrigaaga iska fogee.
Eli said to her, “How long will you be drunk? Get rid of your wine.”
15 Markaasaa Xannaah u jawaabtay oo ku tidhi, Maya, sayidkaygiiyow, ee waxaan ahay naag ruuxeedu murugaysan yahay, oo ma aanan cabbin khamri iyo wax lagu sakhraamo toona, laakiinse naftaydaan Rabbiga ku baryayaa.
Hannah answered, “No, my master, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I have been pouring out my soul before Yahweh.
16 Anoo addoontaada ah ha igu tirin gabadh xun; waayo, welwelkayga iyo xanaaqayga batay aawadood ayaan ilaa haatan u hadlayay.
Do not consider your servant to be a shameless woman; I have been speaking out of the abundance of my great concern and provocation.”
17 Markaasaa Ceelii u jawaabay oo yidhi, Nabad ku tag, oo Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ha ku siiyo baryadaadii aad weyddiisatay.
Then Eli answered and said, “Go in peace; may the God of Israel grant the request that you have asked him for.”
18 Markaasay tidhi, Anoo addoontaada ah naxariis aan kaa helo. Sidaas daraaddeed naagtii way iska tagtay, oo wax bay cuntay, oo wejigeeduna mar dambe ma murugsanayn.
She said, “Let your servant find favor in your eyes.” Then the woman went her way and ate; her face was no longer sad.
19 Markaasay aroor hore kaceen, oo Rabbiga caabudeen, dabadeedna way noqdeen, oo yimaadeen gurigoodii Raamaah ku yiil; markaasaa Elqaanaah u tegey naagtiisii Xannaah; oo Rabbiguna iyadii wuu xusuustay.
They rose early in the morning and worshiped before Yahweh, and then they returned again to their house in Ramah. Elkanah slept with Hannah his wife, and Yahweh called her to mind.
20 Oo markii wakhtigii la gaadhay ayay Xannaah uuraysatay, oo ay wiil dhashay; oo magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Samuu'eel, oo waxay tidhi, Maxaa yeelay, isagaan Rabbiga weyddiistay.
When the time came, Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She called his name Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked for him from Yahweh.”
21 Markaasaa ninkii Elqaanaah ahaa, iyo reerkiisii oo dhammuba waxay u tageen inay Rabbiga u bixiyaan allabarigii sannad walba joogtada u ahaa iyo nidarkiisii.
Once again, Elkanah and all his house went up to offer to Yahweh the yearly sacrifice and pay his vow.
22 Laakiinse Xannaah ma ay tegin, waayo, waxay ninkeedii ku tidhi, Anigu tegi maayo ilaa wiilka naaska laga gudhiyo, dabadeedna waan keeni doonaa inuu Rabbiga hortiisa ka muuqdo, oo uu halkaas joogo weligiisba.
But Hannah did not go; she had said to her husband, “I will not go until the child is weaned; then I will bring him, so that he may appear before Yahweh and live there forever.”
23 Markaasaa ninkeedii Elqaanaah ku yidhi, Wixii kula wanaagsan yeel; oo iska joog ilaa aad naaska ka gudhisid, laakiinse Rabbigu eraygiisa ha adkeeyo. Sidaas aawadeed naagtii way iska joogtay oo wiilkii bay nuujisay ilaa ay naaskii ka gudhisay.
Elkanah her husband said to her, “Do what seems good to you. Wait until you have weaned him; only, may Yahweh confirm his word.” So the woman stayed and nursed her son until she weaned him.
24 Oo markay isagii naaska ka gudhisay ayay qaadatay oo la tagtay isagii, iyo saddex dibi, iyo eefaah bur ah, iyo qarbed khamri ah, oo waxay isagii keentay gurigii Rabbiga ee Shiiloh ku yiil, oo wiilkuna wuu yaraa.
When she had weaned him, she took him with her, along with a three-year-old bull, one ephah of meal, and a bottle of wine, and brought him to the house of Yahweh in Shiloh. Now the child was still young.
25 Markaasay dibi qaleen, oo wiilkiina waxay u keeneen Ceelii.
They killed the bull, and they brought the child to Eli.
26 Kolkaasay tidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, waxaan ku dhaaranayaa naftaada nool, Sayidkaygiiyow, waxaan ahay naagtii halkan ku soo ag istaagtay, iyadoo Rabbiga baryaysa.
She said, “Oh, my master! As you live, my master, I am the woman who stood here next to you praying to Yahweh.
27 Waxaan ka baryay wiilkan, oo Rabbigu waa i siiyey baryadaydii aan weyddiistay isaga,
For this child I prayed and Yahweh has given me my petition which I asked of him.
28 sidaas daraaddeed waxaan isaga siiyey Rabbiga, oo intuu nool yahay oo dhan waxaa leh oo la siiyey Rabbiga. Oo isna halkaasuu Rabbiga ku caabuday.
I have given him to Yahweh, as long as he lives he is lent to Yahweh.” Then he worshiped Yahweh there.
