Pirmā Samuela 1
1 Un viens vīrs bija no Ramatajim-Cofim, no Efraīma kalniem, Elkanus vārdā, Jeroama dēls, tas bija Elihus dēls, tas Tous dēls, tas Cuva dēls, no Efraīma cilts.
There was a man of Ramathaimsophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elcana, the son of Jeroham, the son of Eliu, the son of Thohu, the son of Suph, an Ephraimite:
2 Šim bija divas sievas, vienai bija vārds Anna, un otras vārds bija Pennina, un Peninnai bija bērni, bet Annai bērnu nebija.
And he had two wives, the name of one was Anna, and the name of the other Phenenna. Phenenna had children: but Anna had no children.
3 Un šis vīrs nogāja ik gadus no savas pilsētas, Dievu pielūgt un upurēt Tam Kungam Cebaot Šīlo. Un tur bija tie divi Elus dēli, Hofnus un Pinehas, Tam Kungam par priesteriem.
And this man went up out of his city upon the appointed days, to adore and to offer sacrifice to the Lord of hosts in Silo. And the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were there priests of the Lord.
4 Un tai dienā, kad Elkanus upurēja, viņš savai sievai Peninnai un visiem viņas dēliem un meitām deva daļas.
Now the day came, and Elcana offered sacrifice, and gave to Phenenna his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, portions:
5 Bet Annai viņš deva divkārtīgu daļu, jo viņš to Annu mīlēja, bet Tas Kungs viņas miesas bija aizslēdzis.
But to Anna he gave one portion with sorrow, because he loved Anna. And the Lord had shut up her womb.
6 Un viņas pretiniece viņu daudz apbēdināja un skumdināja kaitinādama, tādēļ ka Tas Kungs viņas miesas bija aizslēdzis.
Her rival also afflicted her, and troubled her exceedingly, insomuch that she upbraided her, that the Lord had shut up her womb:
7 Un tā viņš darīja ik gadus, kad viņa nogāja Tā Kunga namā. Un šī viņu skumdināja, ka viņa raudāja un neēda.
And thus she did every year, when the time returned that they went up to the temple of the Lord: and thus she provoked her: but Anna wept, and did not eat.
8 Tad Elkanus, viņas vīrs, uz viņu sacīja: Anna, kāpēc tu raudi? Un kāpēc tu neēdi? Un kāpēc tava sirds noskumusi? Vai es tev neesmu labāks nekā desmit dēli?
Then Elcana her husband said to her: Anna, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? And why dost thou afflict thy heart? Am not I better to thee than ten children?
9 Tad Anna cēlās, kad bija ēdusi un dzērusi Šīlo. Un Elus, tas priesteris, sēdēja uz krēsla pie stenderes Tā Kunga namā.
So Anna arose after she had eaten and drunk in Silo: And Heli the priest sitting upon a stool, before the door of the temple of the Lord:
10 Un viņas sirds dziļumā bija noskumusi un pielūdza To Kungu un raudāja gauži.
As Anna had her heart full of grief, she prayed to the Lord, shedding many tears,
11 Un viņa solīja solījumu un sacīja: Kungs Cebaot, ja Tu Savas kalpones bēdas uzlūkosi un mani pieminēsi un Savu kalponi neaizmirsīsi un dosi Savai kalponei dēlu, tad es to Tam Kungam došu visu viņa mūžu, un dzenamam nazim nebūs nākt uz viņa galvu.
And she made a vow, saying: O Lord, of hosts, if thou wilt look down on the affliction of thy servant, and wilt be mindful of me, and not forget thy handmaid, and wilt give to thy servant a man child: I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.
12 Un kad viņa ilgi lūdza Tā Kunga priekšā, tad Elus viņas mutes (kustēšanu) lika vērā.
And it came to pass, as she multiplied prayers before the Lord, that Heli observed her mouth.
13 Jo Anna runāja savā sirdī un viņas lūpas tikai kustējās, bet viņas balss netapa dzirdēta, tāpēc Elum šķita, viņu esam piedzērušu.
Now Anna spoke in her heart, and only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard at all. Heli therefore thought her to be drunk,
14 Un Elus uz to sacīja: cik ilgi tu būsi piedzērusi? Lai tavs vīns no tevis atstājās.
And said to her: How long wilt thou, be drunk? digest a little the wine, of which thou hast taken too much.
15 Bet Anna atbildēja un sacīja: nē, mans kungs, es esmu sieva ar bēdīgu sirdi, es neesmu ne vīna nedz stipra dzēriena dzērusi, bet savu sirdi esmu izgāzusi priekš Tā Kunga.
Anna answering, said: Not so, my lord: for I am an exceeding unhappy woman, and have drunk neither wine nor any strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the Lord.
16 Neturi savu kalponi par tādu negodīgu sievu, jo es līdz šim esmu runājusi aiz lielām sirds nopūtām un bēdām.
Count not thy handmaid for one of the daughters of Belial: for out of the abundance of my sorrow and grief have I spoken till now.
17 Tad Elus atbildēja un sacīja: ej ar mieru, lai Israēla Dievs tev dod tavu lūgumu, ko tu no Viņa lūgusi.
Then Heli said to her: Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.
18 Un viņa sacīja: lai tava kalpone žēlastību atrod tavās acīs. Tad tā sieva nogāja savu ceļu un ēda un viņas vaigs vairs neraudzījās tik noskumis.
And she said: Would to God thy handmaid may find grace in thy eyes. So the woman went on her way, and ate, and her countenance was no more changed.
19 Un tie cēlās rītā agri un pielūdza Tā Kunga priekšā un griezās atpakaļ un nāca savā namā Rāmatā. Un Elkanus atzina Annu, savu sievu, un Tas Kungs viņu pieminēja.
And they rose in the morning, and worshipped before the Lord: and they returned, and came into their house at Ramatha. And Elcana knew Anna his wife: and the Lord remembered her.
20 Un pēc kāda laika Anna tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Samuēli, jo (viņa sacīja) es no Tā Kunga to esmu izlūgusies.
And it came to pass when the time was come about, Anna conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel: because she had asked him of the Lord.
21 Kad nu tas vīrs, Elkanus, ar visu savu namu aizgāja, Tam Kungam upurēt to gadskārtējo upuri un savu solījumu,
And Elcana her husband went up, and all his house, to offer to the Lord the solemn sacrifice, and his vow.
22 Tad Anna negāja līdz, bet sacīja uz savu vīru: kad tas puisītis būs atšķirts, tad es viņu vedīšu, lai viņš rādās Tā Kunga priekšā un tur paliek mūžam.
But Anna went not up: for she said to her husband: I will not go till the child be weaned, and till I may carry him, that he may appear before the Lord, and may abide always there.
23 Un Elkanus, viņas vīrs, uz to sacīja: dari, kā tev patīk, paliec šeitan, tiekams tu viņu būsi atšķīrusi; bet Tas Kungs lai piepilda Savu vārdu. Tā tā sieva palika un zīdīja savu dēlu, tiekams viņa to atšķīra.
And Elcana her husband said to her: Do what seemeth good to thee, and stay till thou wean him: and I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word. So the woman stayed at home, and gave her son suck, till she weaned him.
24 Un kad viņa to bija atšķīrusi, tad viņa to veda sev līdz ar trim vēršiem un vienu ēfu miltu un vienu trauciņu ar vīnu, un noveda Tā Kunga namā uz Šīlo; un tas zēns bija vēl jauns.
And after she had weaned him, she carried him with her, with three calves, and three bushels of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she brought him to the house of the Lord in Silo. Now the child was as yet very young:
25 Un tie nokāva vērsi un pieveda to zēnu pie Elus.
And they immolated a calf, and offered the child to Heli.
26 Un tā sacīja: mans kungs, tik tiešām kā tava dvēsele dzīvo, mans kungs, es esmu tā sieva, kas šeitan pie tevis stāvēja, To Kungu lūgdama.
And Anna said: I beseech thee, my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord: I am that woman who stood before thee here praying to the Lord.
27 Es par šo bērnu esmu lūgusi, un Tas Kungs man devis manu lūgumu, ko es no Viņa esmu lūgusi.
For this child did I pray, and the Lord hath granted me my petition, which I asked of him.
28 Tādēļ es to arī Tam Kungam kā izlūgtu esmu nodevusi visu mūžu, kamēr tas dzīvos, - viņš ir no Tā Kunga izlūgts. Un tie tur pielūdza To Kungu.
Therefore I also have lent him to the Lord all the days of his life, he shall be lent to the Lord. And they adored the Lord there. And Anna prayed, and said:
