1 Samuel 3

1 Naglingkod kay Yahweh ang batang si Samuel na nakapailalim kay Eli. Madalang ang mga salita ni Yahweh sa mga panahong iyon; walang madalas na pangitain.

Nowe the childe Samuel ministred vnto the Lord before Eli: and the word of the Lord was precious in those dayes: for there was no manifest vision.

2 Sa panahong iyon, nang si Eli, na ang paningin ay nagsimulang lumabo kaya hindi na siya makakita nang mabuti, ay nakahiga sa kanyang sariling higaan.

And at that time, as Eli lay in his place, his eyes began to waxe dimme that he could not see.

3 Hindi pa namamatay ang ilawan ng Diyos, at nakahiga si Samuel upang matulog sa bahay ni Yahweh, kung saan naroon ang kaban ng Diyos.

And yet the light of God went out, Samuel slept in the temple of the Lord, where the Arke of God was.

4 Tumawag si Yahweh kay Samuel, na nagsabing, “Narito ako.”

Then the Lord called Samuel: and hee said, Here I am.

5 Tumakbo si Samuel kay Eli at sinabing, “Narito ako, dahil tinawag mo ako.” Sinabi ni Eli, “Hindi kita tinawag; humiga ka ulit.” Umalis si Samuel at humiga.

And he ranne vnto Eli, and said, Here am I, for thou calledst me. But he said, I called thee not: goe againe and sleepe. And he went and slept.

6 Tumawag muli si Yahweh, “Samuel.” Bumangon muli si Samuel at nagtungo kay Eli at sinabing, “Narito ako, dahil tinawag mo ako.” Sumagot si Eli, “Hindi kita tinawag, aking anak; humiga ka muli.”

And the Lord called once againe, Samuel. And Samuel arose, and went to Eli, and said, I am here: for thou diddest call me. And he answered, I called thee not, my sonne: go againe and sleepe.

7 Ngayon wala pang anumang karanasan si Samuel kay Yahweh, ni nagkaroon ng anumang mensahe mula kay Yahweh na naibunhayag sa kanya.

Thus did Samuel, before hee knewe the Lord, and before the word of the Lord was reueiled vnto him.

8 Tinawag muli ni Yahweh si Samuel sa ikatlong pagkakataon. Muling bumangon si Samuel at nagtungo kay Eli at sinabing, “Narito ako, sapagka't tinawag mo ako.” Pagkatapos napagtanto ni Eli na tinawag ni Yahweh ang bata.

And the Lord called Samuel againe the thirde time: and he arose, and went to Eli, and said, I am here: for thou hast called me. Then Eli perceiued that the Lord had called the childe.

9 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Eli kay Samuel, “Umalis ka at humigang muli; kung tatawagin ka niya muli, dapat mong sabihin, 'Magsalita ka, Yahweh, sapagka't nakikinig ang iyong lingkod.''' Kaya umalis si Samuel at minsan pang humiga sa kanyang sariling lugar.

Therefore Eli saide vnto Samuel, Goe and sleepe: and if he call thee, then say, Speake Lord, for thy seruant heareth. So Samuel went, and slept in his place.

10 Dumating si Yahweh at tumayo; tumawag siya tulad ng ibang mga pagkakataon, “Samuel, Samuel.” Pagkatapos sinabi ni Samuel, “Magsalita ka, sapagka't nakikinig ang iyong lingkod.”

And the Lord came, and stoode, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speake, for thy seruant heareth.

11 Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Samuel, “Tingnan mo, gagawa akong ng isang bagay sa Israel kung saan manginginig ang mga tainga ng lahat ng makakarinig nito.

Then the Lord said to Samuel, Beholde, I wil doe a thing in Israel, whereof whosoeuer shall heare, his two eares shall tingle.

12 Sa araw na iyon tutuparin ko ang lahat ng bagay na aking sinabi kay Eli tungkol sa kanyang bahay, mula simula hanggang sa katapusan.

In that day I will raise vp against Eli all things which I haue spoken concerning his house: when I begin, I will also make an ende.

13 Sinabi ko na sa kanya na hahatulan ko ang kanyang sambahayan minsan para sa lahat ng kasalanang kanyang nalaman, dahil nagdala ng sumpa sa kanilang sarili ang kanyang mga anak na lalaki at hindi niya sila pinigilan.

And I haue tolde him that I will iudge his house for euer, for the iniquitie which hee knoweth, because his sonnes ranne into a slaunder, and he stayed them not.

14 Dahil dito naipangako ko sa sambahayan ni Eli na ang mga kasalanan ng kanyang sambahayan ay hindi kailanman mapapawi sa pamamagitan ng alay o handog.”

Nowe therefore I haue sworne vnto the house of Eli, that the wickednes of Elis house, shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offring for euer.

15 Nakahiga si Samuel hanggang umaga; pagkatapos binuksan niya ang mga pintuan ng bahay ni Yahweh. Ngunit natakot si Samuel na sabihin kay Eli ang tungkol sa pangitain.

Afterward Samuel slept vntil the morning, and opened the doores of the house of the Lord, and Samuel feared to shewe Eli the vision.

16 Pagkatapos tinawag ni Eli si Samuel at sinabing, “Samuel, anak ko.” Sinabi ni Samuel, “Narito ako.”

Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel my sonne. And he answered, Here I am.

17 Sinabi niya, “Ano ang salitang kanyang sinabi sa iyo? Pakiusap huwag mo itong itago mula sa akin. Gawin nawa sa iyo ng Diyos, at higit pa, kung itatago mo ang anumang bagay mula sa akin anuman sa lahat ng salitang sinabi niya sa iyo.”

Then he said, What is it, that the Lord said vnto thee? I pray thee, hide it not from mee. God doe so to thee, and more also, if thou hide any thing from me, of all that he said vnto thee.

18 Sinabi ni Samuel sa kanya ang lahat; wala siyang tinago mula sa kanya. Sinabi ni Eli, “Si Yahweh iyon. Hayaan mong gawin niya anuman ang sa tingin niya ay mabuti sa kanya.”

So Samuel tolde him euery whit, and hid nothing from him. Then hee said, It is the Lord: let him do what seemeth him good.

19 Lumaki si Samuel, at kasama niya si Yahweh at wala sa kanyang mga salitang inihula ang nabigong magkatotoo.

And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and let none of his words fall to the ground.

20 Nalaman ng buong Israel mula Dan hanggang Beer-seba na hinirang si Samuel upang maging isang propeta ni Yahweh.

And all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba knew that faithfull Samuel was the Lordes Prophet.

21 Nagpakita muli si Yahweh sa Shilo, sapagka't ibinunyag niya ang kanyang sarili kay Samuel sa Shilo sa pamamagitan ng kanyang salita.

And the Lord appeared againe in Shiloh: for the Lord reueiled himselfe to Samuel in Shiloh by his word.
