< 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 from Ramah of Zophim, on Mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the 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.
And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the second was Peninnah. And Peninnah had sons. But Hannah did not have children.
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.
And this man went up from his city, on the established days, so that he might adore and sacrifice to the Lord of hosts at Shiloh. Now the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests of the Lord, were in that place.
4 Oo Elqaanaah maalintii uu allabariga bixiyey ayuu qayb siiyey naagtiisii Feninnaah iyo wiilasheedii iyo gabdhaheedii oo dhan,
Then the day arrived, and Elkanah immolated. And he gave portions to his wife Peninnah, and to all her sons and daughters.
5 laakiinse Xannaah wuxuu siiyey qayb labanlaab ah; maxaa yeelay, Xannaah wuu jeclaa, laakiinse Rabbigaa maxalkeedii xidhay.
But to Hannah he gave one portion with sorrow. For he loved Hannah, but the Lord had closed her womb.
6 Tii dhibi jirtay ayaa aad uga cadhaysiisay, si ay uga xanaajiso, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigaa maxalkeedii xidhay.
And her rival afflicted her and vehemently distressed her, to a great extent, for she rebuked her that the Lord 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.
And she did so every year, when the time returned for them to ascend to the temple of the Lord. And she provoked her in this way. And so, she wept and did not take food.
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?
Therefore, her husband Elkanah said to her: “Hannah, why are you weeping? And why do you not eat? And for what reason do you afflict your heart? 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.
And so, after she ate and drank at Shiloh, Hannah rose up. And Eli, the priest, was sitting on the seat before the door of the temple of the Lord.
10 Iyadu aad bay u murugootay, oo intay ooyday ayay Rabbiga bariday.
And since Hannah was bitter in soul, she prayed to the Lord, weeping greatly.
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.
And she made a vow, saying, “O Lord of hosts, if, in looking with favor, you will see the affliction of your servant and will remember me, and will not forget your handmaid, and if you will give to your servant a male child, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall pass over his head.”
12 Oo intii ay Rabbiga hortiisa ku baryootamaysay ayuu Ceelii fiiriyey afkeedii.
Then it happened that, while she multiplied prayers before the Lord, Eli observed 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.
For Hannah was speaking in her heart, and only her lips moved, and her voice was barely heard. Therefore, Eli considered her to be drunk,
14 Markaasaa Ceelii wuxuu iyadii ku yidhi, Ilaa gormaad sakhraamaysaa? Khamrigaaga iska fogee.
and so he said to her: “How long will you be inebriated? You should take only a little wine, but instead you are drenched.”
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.
Responding, Hannah said: “By no means, my lord. For I am an exceedingly unhappy woman, and I drank neither wine, nor anything that can inebriate. Instead, I have poured out my soul in the sight of the Lord.
16 Anoo addoontaada ah ha igu tirin gabadh xun; waayo, welwelkayga iyo xanaaqayga batay aawadood ayaan ilaa haatan u hadlayay.
You should not repute your handmaid as one of the daughters of Belial. For I have been speaking from the abundance of my sorrow and grief, even until now.”
17 Markaasaa Ceelii u jawaabay oo yidhi, Nabad ku tag, oo Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ha ku siiyo baryadaadii aad weyddiisatay.
Then Eli said to her: “Go in peace. And may the God of Israel grant to you your petition, which you have begged of him.”
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.
And she said, “I wish that your handmaid may find grace in your eyes.” And the woman went on her way, and she ate, and her countenance was no longer changed for the worse.
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.
And they rose up in the morning, and they worshipped before the Lord. And they returned and arrived at their own house at Ramah. Then Elkanah knew his wife Hannah. And the Lord remembered her.
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.
And it happened that, in the course of days, Hannah conceived and bore a son. And she called his name Samuel, because she had requested him from the Lord.
21 Markaasaa ninkii Elqaanaah ahaa, iyo reerkiisii oo dhammuba waxay u tageen inay Rabbiga u bixiyaan allabarigii sannad walba joogtada u ahaa iyo nidarkiisii.
Now her husband Elkanah ascended with his entire house, so that he might immolate to the Lord a solemn sacrifice, with 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 up. For she said to her husband, “I will not go, until the infant has been weaned, and until I may lead him, so that he may appear before the sight of the Lord, and may remain always there.”
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.
And her husband Elkanah said to her: “Do what seems good to you, and stay until you wean him. And I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word.” Therefore, the woman remained at home, and she breastfed her son, until she withdrew him from milk.
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.
And after she had weaned him, she brought him with her, along with three calves, and three measures of flour, and a small bottle of wine, and she led him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh. But the boy was still a young child.
25 Markaasay dibi qaleen, oo wiilkiina waxay u keeneen Ceelii.
And they immolated a calf, and they presented the boy to Eli.
26 Kolkaasay tidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, waxaan ku dhaaranayaa naftaada nool, Sayidkaygiiyow, waxaan ahay naagtii halkan ku soo ag istaagtay, iyadoo Rabbiga baryaysa.
And Hannah said: “I beg you, my lord, as your soul lives, my lord: I am that woman, who stood before you here, praying to the Lord.
27 Waxaan ka baryay wiilkan, oo Rabbigu waa i siiyey baryadaydii aan weyddiistay isaga,
I prayed for this child, and the Lord granted to 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.
Because of this, I have also lent him to the Lord, for all the days when he shall be lent to the Lord.” And they adored the Lord in that place. And Hannah prayed, and she said:
