Sie Samuel 3

1 In pacl se ke tulik Samuel el kulansupu LEUM GOD ye koko lal Eli, tia pus pacl LEUM GOD El sramsram nu sin mwet, ku sikyang nu sin mwet in aruruma.

The child Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. The word of the LORD was rare in those days; there was no frequent vision.

2 Sie fong ah Eli, su apkuran elan kunla mutal, el motul infukil sel sifacna.

It happened at that time, when Eli was lying down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see),

3 Ac Samuel el motul in acn mutal, acn ma Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD oan we. Meet liki lenelik, ke lam uh srakna firir,

and the lamp of God hadn't yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the LORD's temple, where the ark of God was;

4 LEUM GOD El pangnol Samuel. Ac Samuel el topuk, “Nga inge!”

that the LORD called, "Samuel. Samuel." And he said, "Here I am."

5 ac el kasrusr nu yorol Eli ac fahk, “Nga inge, tuh kom pangonyu.” A Eli el fahk, “Nga tia pangon kom. Folokla motulla.” Na Samuel el folokla ac motulla.

He ran to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." He said, "I did not call; lie down again." He went and lay down.

6 Ac LEUM GOD El sifil pang, “Samuel!” Samuel el sifil tukakek ac som nu yorol Eli ac fahk, “Nga inge, tuh kom pangonyu.” A Eli el fahk, “Nga tia pangon kom. Folokla motulla.”

The LORD called yet again, "Samuel. Samuel." And he arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." He answered, "I did not call, my son; lie down again."

7 Samuel el tiana akilen lah LEUM GOD pa pangnol, mweyen soenna oasr pacl LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel.

Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed to him.

8 LEUM GOD El sifilpa pangnol Samuel ke pacl se aktolu. Na Samuel el tukakek ac som nu yorol Eli ac fahk, “Nga inge, tuh kom pangonyu.” Na Eli el akilenak lah LEUM GOD pa pangnol uh.

The LORD called Samuel again the third time. He arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am; for you called me." Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.

9 Na Eli el fahk nu sel Samuel, “Folokla motulla, ac El fin sifil pangon kom, na kom fahk, ‘LEUM GOD, kaskas, tuh mwet kulansap lom el porongo.’” Na Samuel el folokla ac motulla.

Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he calls you, that you shall say, 'Speak, LORD; for your servant hears.'" So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

10 Ac LEUM GOD El tuku tuyang, ac pangnol oana ke El oru meet ah, “Samuel! Samuel!” Na Samuel el topuk ac fahk, “Kaskas, tuh mwet kulansap lom el porongo.”

The LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, "Samuel. Samuel." Then Samuel said, "Speak; for your servant hears."

11 Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Sie pacl nga ac fah oru sie ma na upa in Israel, ac elos nukewa su lohng ac fah arulana lut ac oela kac.

The LORD said to Samuel, "Look, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of everyone who hears it shall tingle.

12 In len sac nga ac fah oru ma nukewa ma nga fahk mu nga ac oru lain sou lal Eli, mutawauk nwe ke safla.

In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even to the end.

13 Nga fahk nu sel tari lah nga ac fah kai sou lal ma pahtpat, ke sripen wen natul kaskas koluk lainyu. Eli el etu ma eltal oru a el tia kutongoltal.

For I have told him that I will judge his house forever, for the iniquity which he knew, because his sons were cursing God, and he did not restrain them.

14 Ouinge nga fahkak kalem nu sin sou lal Eli lah ac fah wangin mwe kisa ku mwe sang fah ku in molelosla liki ma koluk lalos inge.”

Therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be removed with sacrifice nor offering forever."

15 Ac Samuel el oanna nwe ke lenelik, na el tukakek ac ikasla srungul in lohm sin LEUM GOD. El sangeng in fahkak aruruma sac nu sel Eli.

And Samuel lay there until the morning, and in the morning he got up and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel was afraid to tell Eli the vision.

16 Ac Eli el pangnol Samuel ac fahk, “Samuel, wen nutik!” Na Samuel el topuk, “Nga inge.”

Then Eli called Samuel, and said, "Samuel, my son." He said, "Here I am."

17 Eli el siyuk sel, “Mea LEUM GOD El fahk nu sum? Nikmet okanla kutena ma. God El ac arulana kai kom, kom fin tia fahk ma nukewa nu sik.”

He said, "What is the thing that he has spoken to you? Please do not hide it from me. God do so to you, and more also, if you hide anything from me of all the things that he spoke to you in your ears."

18 Na Samuel el fahkak ma nukewa nu sel Eli. El tia okanla kutena ma. Eli el fahk, “El pa LEUM GOD. Lela Elan oru fal nu ke lungse lal.”

And Samuel told him everything, and did not hide anything from him. And he said, "It is the LORD. Let him do what seems good to him."

19 Ke Samuel el kapkapak, LEUM GOD El welul ac oru tuh ma nukewa Samuel el fahk in pwaye.

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

20 Ouinge mwet Israel nukewa, mutawauk na e Dan me fahsru nwe Beersheba, elos etu tuh Samuel el mwet palu suwoswos lun God.

All Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.

21 Pacl pus LEUM GOD El sikyak in acn Shiloh, acn se ma El tuh sramsram nu sel Samuel we. Pacl nukewa Samuel el ac sramsram uh, mwet Israel nukewa porongo.

The LORD appeared again in Shiloh; for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
