< Samuu'Eel Kowaad 3 >
1 Oo yarkii Samuu'eel ahaana wuxuu Rabbiga uga adeegi jiray Ceelii hortiisa. Oo wakhtigaasna erayga Rabbigu wax aan marar badan la helin buu ahaa, oo muuqasho bayaan ahna lama muujin.
The boy Samuel served before the Lord under Eli's supervision. At that time messages from the Lord were rare—visions were not common.
2 Oo wakhtigaas markii Ceelii jiifsaday meeshiisii, (haddaba indhihiisii way arag darnaayeen oo waxba ma uu arki karin)
One evening, Eli had gone to bed in his room. His eyes were now so weak that he couldn't see.
3 oo laambaddii Ilaahna aan weli la demin, oo Samuu'eelna jiifsaday macbudkii Rabbiga, kaasoo ah meeshii sanduuqa Ilaah yiil,
The lamp of God hadn't yet gone out, and Samuel was sleeping in the Lord's Temple where the Ark of God was.
4 ayaa Rabbigu Samuu'eel u yeedhay, oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan.
Then the Lord called, “Samuel!” He answered, “I'm here.”
5 Markaasuu Ceelii ku orday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa i kan, waayo, waad ii yeedhay. Kolkaasuu yidhi, Anigu kuuma aan yeedhin, ee iska jiifso. Markaasuu tegey oo jiifsaday.
He ran to Eli, and said, “I'm here—you called me.” “I didn't call you,” Eli replied. “Go back to bed.” So Samuel went back to bed.
6 Markaasaa Rabbigu haddana u yeedhay oo yidhi, Samuu'eelow. Kolkaasaa Samuu'eel kacay oo Ceelii u tegey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa i kan, waayo, waad ii yeedhay. Oo isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Wiilkaygiiyow, kuuma aan yeedhin ee iska jiifso.
Then the Lord called again, “Samuel!” Samuel got up, went to Eli and said, “I'm here—you called me.” “I didn't call you, my son,” Eli replied. “Go back to bed.”
7 Haddaba Samuu'eel weli ma uu aqoon Rabbiga, oo welina erayga Rabbiga looma muujin isaga.
(Samuel hadn't yet come to know the Lord and had not received any message from him.)
8 Oo haddana Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel u yeedhay mar saddexaad. Oo isna wuu kacay oo u tegey Ceelii, wuxuuna ku yidhi, Waa i kan; waayo, waad ii yeedhay. Oo Ceeliina markaasuu gartay in Rabbigu u yeedhay yarka.
The Lord called again for the third time, “Samuel!” He got up went to Eli and said, “I'm here—you called me.” Then Eli realized that it was the Lord calling the boy.
9 Sidaas daraaddeed Ceelii wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Tag oo iska jiifso, oo waxay ahaan doontaa, hadduu kuu yeedho inaad ku tidhaahdid, Rabbiyow ila hadal, waayo anoo addoonkaaga ah waan ku maqlayaaye. Sidaas aawadeed Samuu'eel waa tegey oo meeshiisuu jiifsaday.
Eli told Samuel, “Go back to bed, and if he calls you, say, ‘Speak, Lord, because your servant is listening.’” So Samuel went back to his bed.
10 Markaasaa Rabbigu u yimid, oo ag istaagay, oo sidii mararkii kale ayuu u yeedhay oo ku yidhi, Samuu'eelow, Samuu'eelow. Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu yidhi, Ila hadal, waayo, anoo addoonkaaga ah waan ku maqlayaaye.
The Lord came and stood there, calling just as before, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel answered, “Speak, because your servant is listening.”
11 Markaasaa Rabbigu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan reer binu Israa'iil ku dhex samaynayaa wax ku alla kii maqlaaba uu ka nixi doono.
The Lord told Samuel: “Pay attention, because I'm going to do something in Israel that will surprise everyone who hears it.
12 Oo maalintaas waxaan Ceelii ku samayn doonaa kulli wixii aan reerkiisa kaga hadlay oo dhan, ilaa bilowgii iyo xataa dhammaadka.
That's when I will carry out against Eli and his family everything I have said, from beginning to end.
13 Waayo, waxaan isaga u sheegay inaan reerkiisa weligiis u xukumayo dembigii uu ogaa, maxaa yeelay, wiilashiisii inkaar bay isku rideen, oo isna kama uu joojin iyagii.
I told him that I will judge his family forever because of the sins he knows about, because his sons blasphemed God and he did not try and stop them.
14 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaan reerka Ceelii ugu dhaartay inaan reerka Ceelii weligiis dembigiisa lagu nadiifin doonin allabari amase qurbaan.
That's why I swore to Eli and his family, ‘The guilt of Eli and his descendants will never be removed by sacrifice or offering.’”
15 Markaasaa Samuu'eel iska jiifsaday ilaa subaxdii, oo dabadeedna wuxuu furay gurigii Rabbiga albaabbadiisii. Oo Samuu'eelna waa ka cabsaday inuu Ceelii muujintii u sheego.
Samuel remained in bed until the morning. Then he got up and opened the doors of the Lord's Temple as usual. He was afraid to tell Eli about the vision.
16 Markaasaa Ceelii Samuu'eel u yeedhay, oo ku yidhi, Wiilkaygii Samuu'eelow, oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan.
But Eli called him and said, “Samuel, my son.” “I'm here,” Samuel answered.
17 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Waxa Rabbigu kuu sheegay waa maxay? Waan ku baryayaaye, ha iga qarin. Ilaah ha kugu sameeyo waxaas iyo wax ka sii daranba, haddii aad iga qarisid innaba wixii uu kuu sheegay oo dhan.
“What did he tell you?” Eli asked. “Don't hide it from me. May God punish you very severely if you hide anything he told you from me!”
18 Oo Samuu'eelna wuu u sheegay wax kasta, oo waxba kama uu qarin innaba. Markaasuu yidhi, Isagu waa Rabbiga, ee ha sameeyo wixii la wanaagsan isaga.
So Samuel told him everything and didn't hide anything from him. “It's the Lord,” Eli replied. “May he do what he thinks is good.”
19 Oo Samuu'eelna wuu koray, Rabbiguna waa la jiray isaga, oo uma oggolaan in erayadiisii midna dhulka ku dhaco.
Samuel continued to grow up. The Lord was with him and made sure all he said was trustworthy.
20 Oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna tan iyo Daan iyo ilaa Bi'ir Shebac way wada ogaayeen in Samuu'eel loo adkeeyey inuu ahaado Rabbiga nebigiis.
Everyone in the whole of Israel from Dan to Beersheba recognized that Samuel was a trustworthy prophet of the Lord.
21 Oo Rabbigu haddana mar kale ayuu ka muuqday Shiiloh, waayo, Rabbiga ayaa eraygiisii isugu muujiyey Samuu'eel oo Shiiloh jooga.
The Lord went on appearing at Shiloh, because there he revealed himself to Samuel and delivered his messages,
