1 Samuel 1
1 Mayroong isang tao ng Romataim-Zofim, sa maburol na lupain ng Efraim; ang kanyang pangalan ay si Elkana na anak na lalaki ni Jeroham na anak na lalaki ni Elihu na anak na lalaki ni Tohu na anak na lalaki ni Zuf, isang Efrateo.
Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim-zophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite:
2 Mayroon siyang dalawang asawa; ang pangalan ng unang asawa ay si Ana at ang pangalan ng pangalawa ay si Penina. Nagkaroon ng mga anak si Penina, ngunit hindi nagkaanak si Ana.
And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
3 Umaalis ang taong ito mula sa kanyang siyudad taon-taon upang sumamba at mag-alay kay Yahweh ng mga hukbo sa Shilo. Naroon ang dalawang anak na lalaki ni Eli, sina Hofni at Pinehas, na mga pari kay Yahweh.
And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto YHWH of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of YHWH, were there.
4 Kapag dumarating ang araw para kay Elkana para mag-alay bawat taon, palagi niyang binibigyan ng mga bahagi ng karne si Penina na kanyang asawa at lahat ng kanyang anak na lalaki at babae.
And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:
5 Ngunit para kay Ana binibigyan niya palagi ng dobleng bahagi si Ana, dahil minahal niya si Ana, kahit na isinara ni Yahweh ang kanyang sinapupunan.
But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but YHWH had shut up her womb.
6 Lubos siyang ginalit ng kanyang karibal upang mainis siya, dahil isinara ni Yahweh ang kanyang sinapupunan.
And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because YHWH had shut up her womb.
7 Kaya taon-taon, kapag umaakyat siya sa bahay ni Yahweh kasama ang kanyang pamilya, palagi siyang ginagalit ng kanyang karibal. Kaya umiiyak na lang siya at hindi na kumakain.
And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of YHWH, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
8 Palaging sinasabi sa kanya ng kanyang asawa na si Elkana, “Ana, bakit ka umiiyak? Bakit hindi ka kumakain? Bakit malungkot ang iyong puso? Hindi ba ako mas mabuti sa iyo kaysa sampung anak na lalaki?”
Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?
9 Sa isa sa mga pagkakataong ito, tumayo si Ana matapos silang kumain at uminom sa Shilo. Ngayon nakaupo si Eli na pari sa kanyang upuan sa tapat ng pintuan patungo sa bahay ni Yahweh.
So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of YHWH.
10 Labis ang kanyang pagdadalamhati; nanalangin siya kay Yahweh at umiyak nang matindi.
And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto YHWH, and wept sore.
11 Gumawa siya ng isang panata at sinabi niya, “Yahweh ng mga hukbo, kung titingin ka sa dalamhati ng iyong lingkod at iisipin ako, at huwag mong kalimutan ang iyong lingkod, ngunit bigyan mo ng anak na lalaki ang iyong lingkod, pagkatapos ibibigay ko ang buong buhay niya kay Yahweh, at walang labaha ang dadampi sa kanyang ulo.”
And she vowed a vow, and said, O YHWH of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto YHWH all the days of his life, and there shall no rasor come upon his head.
12 Habang patuloy siyang nagdadasal sa harapan ni Yahweh, pinagmasdan ni Eli ang kanyang bibig.
And it came to pass, as she continued praying before YHWH, that Eli marked her mouth.
13 Nangusap si Ana sa kanyang puso. Gumalaw ang kanyang mga labi, ngunit hindi narinig ang kanyang boses. Kaya inakala ni Eli na siya ay lasing.
Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.
14 Sinabi ni Eli sa kanya, “Gaano katagal kang magiging lasing? Itapon mo ang iyong alak.”
And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.
15 Sumagot si Ana, “Hindi, aking amo, ako ay isang babaeng nagdadalamhati ang kalooban. Hindi ako nakainom ng alak o matapang na inumin, ngunit ibinubuhos ko ang aking kaluluwa sa harapan ni Yahweh.”
And Hannah answered and said, No, mymaster, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before YHWH.
16 “Huwag mong ituring na ang iyong lingkod ay isang nakahihiyang babae; nagsasalita ako mula sa aking matinding pag-aalala at pagkagalit.”
Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken hitherto.
17 Pagkatapos sumagot si Eli at sinabing, “Umalis ka ng mapayapa; ipagkaloob nawa ng Diyos ng Israel ang iyong kahilingan na iyong hiniling sa kanya.”
Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the Elohim of Israel grant thee thy petition that thou hast asked of him.
18 Sinabi niya, “Hayaang makasumpong ng biyaya ang iyong lingkod sa iyong paningin.” Pagkatapos umalis ang babae at kumain; hindi na malungkot ang kanyang mukha.
And she said, Let thine handmaid find favour in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.
19 Sila'y bumangon nang maaga sa araw na iyon at sumamba sa harapan ni Yahweh, at pagkatapos bumalik sila sa kanilang bahay sa Ramah. Sinipingan ni Elkana si Ana na kanyang asawa, at inalala siya ni Yahweh.
And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before YHWH, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and YHWH remembered her.
20 Nang dumating ang panahon, nabuntis si Ana at nagsilang ng isang batang lalaki. Tinawag niya ang kanyang pangalan na Samuel, sinasabing, “Dahil hiningi ko siya mula kay Yahweh.”
Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of YHWH.
21 Muli, umakyat sina Elkana at ang kanyang buong bahay upang maghandog ng taunang pag-aalay at tuparin ang kanyang panata.
And the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer unto YHWH the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.
22 Ngunit hindi sumama si Ana; sinabi niya sa kanyang asawa, “Hindi ako sasama hanggang sa hindi na sumususo ang bata; pagkatapos dadalhin ko siya, upang maipakita siya sa harapan ni Yahweh at manirahan siya doon magpakailanman.”
But Hannah went not up; for she said unto her husband, I will not go up until the child be weaned, and then I will bring him, that he may appear before YHWH, and there abide for ever.
23 Sinabi ni Elkana na kanyang asawa sa kanya, “Gawin mo kung ano ang pasya mong mabuti sa iyo. Maghintay ka hanggang sa hindi mo na siya pinapasuso; pagtibayin lamang nawa ni Yahweh ang kanyang salita.” Kaya nanatili ang babae at pinasuso ang kanyang anak hanggang sa hindi na siya sumususo.
And Elkanah her husband said unto her, Do what seemeth thee good; tarry until thou have weaned him; only YHWH establish his word. So the woman abode, and gave her son suck until she weaned him.
24 Nang hindi na niya siya pinapasuso, isinama niya siya kasama ang tatlong taong gulang na toro, isang epa ng pagkain at isang bote ng alak, at dinala niya siya sa bahay ni Yahweh sa Shilo. Ngayon ang anak niya ay bata pa.
And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of YHWH in Shiloh: and the child was young.
25 Pinatay nila ang toro, at dinala nila ang bata kay Eli.
And they slew a bullock, and brought the child to Eli.
26 Sinabi niya, “O aking panginoon! Habang buhay ka, aking panginoon, ako ang babaeng tumayo rito sa tabi mo na nananalangin kay Yahweh.
And she said, Oh mymaster, as thy soul liveth, mymaster, I am the woman that stood by thee here, praying unto YHWH.
27 Sapagkat ang batang ito ang aking ipinanalangin at ibinigay sa akin ni Yahweh ang aking kahilingan na aking hiniling sa kanya.
For this child I prayed; and YHWH hath given me my petition which I asked of him:
28 Ibinibigay ko siya kay Yahweh; habang nabubuhay siya ipapahiram ko siya kay Yahweh.” At sinamba ni Elkana at kanyang pamilya si Yahweh doon.
Therefore also I have lent him to YHWH; as long as he liveth he shall be lent to YHWH. And he worshipped YHWH there.
