1 Samuel 1

1 And there was a certain man, of Ramathaim-zuphi, of the hill country of Ephraim, —whose name, was Elkanah, son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, an Ephraimite;

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.

2 and, he, had two wives, the name of the one, Hannah, and, the name of the other, Peninnah, —and Peninnah had children, but, Hannah, had no children.

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.

3 So then that man went up, out of his city, from time to time, to worship and to sacrifice unto Yahweh of hosts, in Shiloh, —and, there, were the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests unto Yahweh.

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.

4 And, when the day came for Elkanah to sacrifice, he used to give, to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions;

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.

5 and, unto Hannah, used he to give one portion, —howbeit, Hannah, he loved, although, Yahweh, had restrained her from having children.

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.

6 And her rival used even to cause her great vexation, for the sake of provoking her, —because Yahweh had restrained her from having children.

Lubos siyang ginalit ng kanyang karibal upang mainis siya, dahil isinara ni Yahweh ang kanyang sinapupunan.

7 And, thus, used she to do, year by year, whenever she went up to the house of Yahweh, thus, used she to vex her, —and she wept, and would not eat.

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.

8 So Elkanah her husband said to her—Hannah! wherefore shouldst thou weep? and wherefore wilt thou not eat? and wherefore should thy heart be sad? Am, I, not better to thee, than ten sons?

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?”

9 And Hannah rose up, after she had eaten in Shiloh, and after she had drunk, —and, Eli the priest, was sitting upon his chair, by the door-post of the temple of Yahweh;

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.

10 and, she being in bitterness of soul, prayed unto Yahweh, and, wept sore.

Labis ang kanyang pagdadalamhati; nanalangin siya kay Yahweh at umiyak nang matindi.

11 And she vowed a vow, and said—Yahweh of hosts! If thou wilt, look, upon the humiliation of thy handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thy handmaid, but wilt give unto thy handmaid a man-child, then will I give him unto Yahweh, all the days of his life, and no, razor, shall come upon his head.

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.”

12 And so it was, as she continued praying before Yahweh, that Eli was watching her mouth.

Habang patuloy siyang nagdadasal sa harapan ni Yahweh, pinagmasdan ni Eli ang kanyang bibig.

13 But as for, Hannah, she, was speaking in her heart, only her lips, were moving, but, her voice, could not be heard, —so Eli thought she had been drunken.

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.

14 And Eli said unto her, How long, wilt thou be, drunken? Put away thy wine from thee.

Sinabi ni Eli sa kanya, “Gaano katagal kang magiging lasing? Itapon mo ang iyong alak.”

15 And Hannah responded and said—Nay! my lord; A woman depressed in spirit, am I: neither wine nor strong drink, have I drunk, —but I poured out my soul, before Yahweh.

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.”

16 Do not count thy handmaid for an abandoned woman, —for, out of the abundance of my grief and my vexation, have I spoken, hitherto.

“Huwag mong ituring na ang iyong lingkod ay isang nakahihiyang babae; nagsasalita ako mula sa aking matinding pag-aalala at pagkagalit.”

17 Then responded Eli, and said—Go and prosper! And the, God of Israel, grant thy petition which thou hast asked of him!

Pagkatapos sumagot si Eli at sinabing, “Umalis ka ng mapayapa; ipagkaloob nawa ng Diyos ng Israel ang iyong kahilingan na iyong hiniling sa kanya.”

18 And she said: Let thy serving-woman find favour, in thine eyes. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and, her countenance, was sad no longer.

Sinabi niya, “Hayaang makasumpong ng biyaya ang iyong lingkod sa iyong paningin.” Pagkatapos umalis ang babae at kumain; hindi na malungkot ang kanyang mukha.

19 And they rose up early in the morning, and worshipped before Yahweh, and returned, and entered their own house, in Ramah, —and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and Yahweh remembered her.

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.

20 And so it was, when the days had come round during which Hannah was with child, that she bare a son, —and called his name Samuel ["Heard of God"], Because, of Yahweh, I asked him.

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.”

21 And the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up, to offer unto Yahweh the yearly sacrifice, and [each] his own vow.

Muli, umakyat sina Elkana at ang kanyang buong bahay upang maghandog ng taunang pag-aalay at tuparin ang kanyang panata.

22 But, Hannah, went not up, —for she said to her husband—[Not] till the boy is weaned, then will I take him, and he shall appear before Yahweh, and abide there evermore.

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.”

23 And Elkanah her husband said to her—Do what is good in thine own eyes, tarry until thou have weaned him, only may Yahweh establish his word! So the woman tarried, and nursed her son, until she weaned him.

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.

24 Then took she him up with her, when she had weaned him, with a bullock of three years old, and one ephah of meal, and a skin of wine, and took him to the house of Yahweh, at Shiloh, —the boy yet being young.

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.

25 So they slew the bullock, —and took the boy in, unto Eli.

Pinatay nila ang toro, at dinala nila ang bata kay Eli.

26 And she said—Pardon, my lord! By the life of thy soul, my lord, —I, am the woman who was standing near thee here, praying unto Yahweh:

Sinabi niya, “O aking panginoon! Habang buhay ka, aking panginoon, ako ang babaeng tumayo rito sa tabi mo na nananalangin kay Yahweh.

27 For this boy, I prayed, —And Yahweh hath given me my petition which I asked of him.

Sapagkat ang batang ito ang aking ipinanalangin at ibinigay sa akin ni Yahweh ang aking kahilingan na aking hiniling sa kanya.

28 Hence, I also, have loaned him unto Yahweh, all the days that he liveth. He, is lent unto Yahweh. And he bowed down there, unto Yahweh.

Ibinibigay ko siya kay Yahweh; habang nabubuhay siya ipapahiram ko siya kay Yahweh.” At sinamba ni Elkana at kanyang pamilya si Yahweh doon.
