< I Samuel 2 >

1 Nagkararag ni Ana a kunana, “Agragragsak ti pusok gapu kenni Yahweh. Napabilegak gapu kenni Yahweh. Agpasindayag ti ngiwatko kadagiti kabusorko, gapu ta agrag-oak iti panangisalakanmo.
And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoices in the LORD, my horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over my enemies; because I rejoice in your salvation.
2 Awan ti uray maysa a nasantoan a kas kenni Yahweh, ta awan iti sabali pay malaksid kenka; awan dakkel a bato a kas iti Diostayo.
There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside you: neither is there any rock like our God.
3 Saankayon nga agpasindayag unay; awan koman ti kinapalangguad a rumuar iti ngiwatyo. Ta ni Yahweh ket Dios ti pannakaammo; babaen kenkuana matimbang dagiti tignay.
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogance come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
4 Matukkol dagiti bai dagiti nabileg a lallaki, ngem dagiti maitibkul, pumigsada a kasla barikes.
The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
5 Dagiti aglaplapusanan idi iti taraon, manggeddan tapno adda kanenda; saanen a mabisinan dagiti mabisbisinan. Uray ti maysa a lupes ket aganak iti pito, ngem ti babai nga addaan iti adu nga annak ket agkapsut.
They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren has born seven; and she that has many children is waxed feeble.
6 Mangpapatay ni Yahweh ken mangmangted iti biag. Isuna ti mangipababa idiay sheol ken isuna ti mangpagpagungar. (Sheol h7585)
The LORD kills, and makes alive: he brings down to the grave, and brings up. (Sheol h7585)
7 Ni Yahweh ti mangpapapanglaw ken mangpabaknang. Mangipababa isuna, ngem mangitan-ok met isuna.
The LORD makes poor, and makes rich: he brings low, and lifts up.
8 Bangbangonenna dagiti napanglaw manipud iti tapok. A-aonenna dagiti agkasapulan manipud iti gabsuon ti dapo tapno makipagtugawda kadagiti prinsipe ken tawidenda ti tugaw ti kinatan-ok. Ta dagiti adigi ti daga ket ni Yahweh ti nangisaad ket insaadna ti lubong kadagitoy.
He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, and he has set the world on them.
9 Bantayannanto dagiti saka dagiti napudno a tattaona, ngem mapaulimekto iti kasipngetan dagiti nadangkes, ta awanto ti agballigi babaen iti bukodna a pigsa.
He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
10 Dagiti mangsupsuppiat kenni Yahweh ket marumekto; gurruodannanto ida manipud langit. Ukomento ni Yahweh dagiti pagpatinggaan ti daga, ikkannanto iti pigsa ti arina ken itag-aynanto ti tangguyob ti pinulotanna.”
The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder on them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
11 Kalpasanna, nagawid ni Elkana iti balayna idiay Rama. Nagserbi ti ubing kenni Yahweh iti imatang ni Eli a padi.
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister to the LORD before Eli the priest.
12 Ita, dagiti putot ni Eli ket awan serserbida a lallaki. Saanda nga am-ammo ni Yahweh.
Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the LORD.
13 Ti kaugalian dagiti papadi kadagiti tattao no kasta nga agidatag iti daton ti siasinoman a tao, umay ti adipen ti padi a siiiggem iti tallo ti pangtudokna a tinidor, bayat a mailamlambong ti karne.
And the priest’s custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a meat hook of three teeth in his hand;
14 Itudokna daytoy kadagiti linaon ti silyasi, wenno dakkel a kaldero, wenno banga. Amin a matudok ti tinidor ket alaen ti padi para iti bagbagina. Inaramidda daytoy iti Silo, kadagiti amin nga Israelita nga umay sadiay.
And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the meat hook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites that came thither.
15 Ngem ketdi, sakbay a puoranda dagiti taba, umay ti adipen ti padi, ket ibagana iti tao nga agidatdaton, “Mangtedka iti maituno a karne para iti padi; ta saan isuna nga umawat iti nalambong a karne manipud kenka, no di laeng dagiti saan a naluto a karne.”
Also before they burnt the fat, the priest’s servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of you, but raw.
16 No kunaen ti lalaki kenkuana, “Masapul a puoranda nga umuna ti taba, ket kalpasanna alaenyo ti kayatyo nga alaen.” Ibaga ngarud ti adipen ti padi, “Saan, itedmo kaniak itan; ta no saan, pilitek nga alaen.”
And if any man said to him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as your soul desires; then he would answer him, No; but you shall give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
17 Nadagsen unay ti basol dagitoy nga agtutubo iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, ta saanda a rinaem ti daton para kenni Yahweh.
Why the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.
18 Ngem nagserbi ni Samuel kenni Yahweh kas maysa nga ubing a nakawesan iti lino nga efod.
But Samuel ministered before the LORD, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
19 Iyar-aramidan isuna ti inana iti bassit a kagay ket tinawen nga ip-ipanna daytoy kenkuana, no sumang-at isuna a kaduana ti asawana a mangisagot iti tinawen a daton.
Moreover his mother made him a little coat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
20 Benbendisionan ni Eli da Elkana ken ti asawana a kunana, “Ikkannaka koma ni Yahweh iti ad-adu pay nga annak babaen iti daytoy a babai gapu iti kiniddawna kenni Yahweh.” Kalpasanna, agsublida iti bukodda a pagtaengan.
And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give you seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD. And they went to their own home.
21 Tinulongan manen ni Yahweh ni Ana, ket nagsikog manen isuna. Naganak pay isuna iti tallo a lallaki ken dua a babbai. Kabayatanna, dimmakkel ti ubing a ni Samuel iti sangoanan ni Yahweh.
And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.
22 Ita, lakay unayen ni Eli; nangngegna amin nga ar-aramiden dagiti annakna a lallaki iti entero nga Israel, ken ti panakikakaiddada kadagiti babbai nga agserserbi iti pagserkan ti tabernakulo.
Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did to all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
23 Kinunana kadakuada, “Apay nga ar-aramidenyo dagiti kakasta a banbanag? Ta nangngegko manipud kadagitoy a tattao dagiti dakes nga aramidyo.”
And he said to them, Why do you such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
24 Saan, annakko; ta daytoy ket saan a nasayaat a damag a mangngegko. Pinagsukiryo dagiti tattao ni Yahweh.
No, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: you make the LORD’s people to transgress.
25 “No makabasol iti sabali ti maysa a tao, ukomento isuna ti Dios; ngem no makabasol ti tao kenni Yahweh, siasino ti agsao para kenkuana?” Ngem saanda a dimngeg iti timek ti amada, gapu ta inkeddengen ni Yahweh a papatayen ida.
If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall entreat for him? Notwithstanding they listened not to the voice of their father, because the LORD would slay them.
26 Dimmakkel ti ubing a ni Samuel, ken ad-adda a makaay-ayo kenni Yahweh ken kasta met kadagiti tattao.
And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favor both with the LORD, and also with men.
27 Ita, immay kenni Eli ti maysa a tao ti Dios ket kinunana kenkuana, “Kuna ni Yahweh, 'Saan kadi nga imparangko ti bagik iti balay ti kapuonam, idi addada iti Egipto a maad-adipen iti balay ni Faraon?
And there came a man of God to Eli, and said to him, Thus says the LORD, Did I plainly appear to the house of your father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh’s house?
28 Pinilik isuna manipud kadagiti amin a tribu ti Israel nga agbalin a padik, a sumang-at iti altarko, ken mangpuor iti insenso, a mangikawes iti efod iti sangoanak. Intedko iti balay ti kapuonam dagiti amin a maipuor a sagsagut dagiti tattao ti Israel.
And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer on my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give to the house of your father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
29 Apay ngarud a saanyo a rinaem dagiti daton ken sagsagut nga imbilinko a kasapulan iti lugar a pagnanaedak? Apay nga ad-adda a raraemem dagiti annakmo ngem siak, babaen iti panagpalukmegyo iti bagbagiyo babaen kadagiti kasasayaatan iti tunggal daton dagiti tattaok nga Israel?'
Why kick you at my sacrifice and at my offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honor your sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the most chief of all the offerings of Israel my people?
30 Ta kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, 'Inkarik a ti balaymo, ken ti balay ti kapuonam, nasken nga agserbida kaniak iti agnanayon.' Ngem ita, kuna ni Yahweh, ‘Saankon nga aramiden daytoy, ta raemek dagiti agraem kaniak, ngem dagiti saan a mangraem kaniak ket mabainanto.
Why the LORD God of Israel said, I said indeed that your house, and the house of your father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD says, Be it far from me; for them that honor me I will honor, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
31 Dumngegka, umayen dagiti aldaw a pukawek ti pigsam ken ti pigsa ti balay ni amam, tapno awanton ti lakay iti balaymo.
Behold, the days come, that I will cut off your arm, and the arm of your father’s house, that there shall not be an old man in your house.
32 Makitamto ti pannakariribuk iti lugar a pagnanaedak. Uray maitedto ti kinaimbag iti Israel, awanton a pulos ti siasinoman a lakay iti balaymo.
And you shall see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in your house for ever.
33 Siasinoman kadakayo a saanko a papanawen iti altarko, pagbulsekekto dagiti matayo, ken paladingitekto ti biagmo. Amin dagiti lallaki a maiyanak iti pamiliam ket matayto.
And the man of yours, whom I shall not cut off from my altar, shall be to consume your eyes, and to grieve your heart: and all the increase of your house shall die in the flower of their age.
34 Daytoyto ti pagilasinam nga umayto kadagiti dua a putotmo, ni Ofni ken ni Finees: Mataydanto a dua iti maymaysa nga aldaw.
And this shall be a sign to you, that shall come on your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.
35 Mangisaadakto iti napudno a padi para kaniak, a mangaramidto no ania ti adda iti pusok ken kararuak. Mangipasdekakto iti natalged a balay para kenkuana; ket agnanayon nga agserbinto isuna iti pinilik nga ari.
And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before my anointed for ever.
36 Tunggal maysa a mabati iti balaymo ket mapanto agruknoy iti dayta a tao, a dumawat iti pidaso ti pirak ken tinapay, ket kunananto, “Pangngaasim ta isaadnak iti maysa kadagiti saad ti padi tapno makapanganak iti maysa a pidaso a tinapay."”'
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in your house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray you, into one of the priests’ offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
