1 Shəmūʼēl

1 And_he/it_was a_man one from the_Ramatayim Tsōfīm/(Zophim) from_hill of_ʼEfrayim and_his/its_name was_ʼElqānāh the_son_of Yəroḩām/(Jeroham) the_son_of ʼElīhū the_son_of Toḩū the_son_of Tsūf/(Zuph) an_ʼEfrātī.
2 And_to/for_him/it two_of wives the_name_of one was_Ḩannāh and_name_of the_second(fs) was_Pəninnāh and_he/it_was to/for_Pəninnāh children and_to/for_Ḩannāh there_belonged_not children.
3 And_ the_man (the)_that _he/it_would_go_up from_city_of_his from_days to_days to_bow_down and_to_sacrifice to/for_YHWH soldiers/messengers in_Shiloh and_there the_two_of the_sons_of ˊĒlī Ḩofnī and_Pinehas were_priests to/for_YHWH.
4 And_ the_day _he/it_was and_ ʼElqānāh _he/it_sacrificed and_he/it_gave to/for_Pəninnāh his/its_wife/woman and_to/for_all her/its_sons/descendants and_her/its_daughters portions.
5 And_to/for_Ḩannāh he_gave a_portion one double if/because DOM Ḩannāh he_loved and_YHWH he_had_closed her_womb/uterus.
6 And_she_provoked_her rival_of_her also provocation in_account_of to_disconcert_her/it if/because YHWH he_had_closed behind her_womb/uterus.
7 And_thus/so/as_follows he_did a_year in_year from_sufficiency she_ascended in_house_of YHWH thus she/it_provoked_her/it and_she/it_wept and_not she_ate.
8 And_he/it_said to/for_her/it ʼElqānāh her/its_husband/man Oh_Ḩannāh to/for_what_(why) are_you_weeping and_to/for_what_(why) not are_you_eating and_to/for_what_(why) your(fs)_heart is_it_sad am_not am_I good to/for_you(fs) from_ten sons.
9 And_ Ḩannāh _she/it_arose after had_eaten in_Shiloh and_after had_drunk and_ˊĒlī the_priest/officer was_sitting on the_seat at the_doorpost_of the_temple_of YHWH.
10 And_she was_bitter_of soul and_she/it_prayed to YHWH and_weeping she_wept.
11 And_she/it_vowed a_vow and_she/it_said Oh_YHWH soldiers/messengers if really_(look) you_will_look in_the_affliction your(ms)_female_slave and_you(ms)_will_remember_me and_not you_will_forget DOM your(ms)_female_slave and_you(ms)_will_give to/for_your(ms)_female_slave offspring_of men and_I_will_give_him/it to/for_YHWH all_of the_days_of his/its_life and_(a)_razor not it_will_go_up on his/its_head.
12 And_it_was if/because she_had_increased to_pray to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH and_ˊĒlī was_watching DOM her/its_mouth.
13 And_Ḩannāh she was_speaking to her/its_heart only her/its_lips were_quivering and_her/its_voice not it_was_heard and_he/it_considered_her/it ˊĒlī to_be_drunk(fs).
14 And_he/it_said to_her/it ˊĒlī until when will_you(fs)_be_drunk remove DOM wine_of_your from_with_you.
15 And_ Ḩannāh _she_answered and_she/it_said no my_master am_a_woman hard_of spirit I and_wine and_strong_drink not I_have_drunk and_I_have_poured_out DOM soul_of_my to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH.
16 Do_not give DOM maidservant_of_your to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before a_daughter_of worthlessness if/because from_the_greatness_of my_complaint_of_my and_provocation_of_my I_have_spoken until now.
17 And_ ˊĒlī _he_answered and_he/it_said go to_peace and_the_god_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) may_he_grant DOM petition_of_your which you_have_asked from_with_him.
18 And_she/it_said maidservant_of_your may_she_find favour in_eyes_of_your and_ the_woman _she_went to_way_of_her and_she/it_ate and_face_of_her not they_were to/for_her/it still.
19 And_they_rose_early in_morning and_they_bowed_down to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH and_they_returned and_they_came to house_of_their to_(the)_Rāmāh and_ ʼElqānāh _he/it_knew DOM Ḩannāh his/its_wife/woman and_he_remembered_her YHWH.
20 And_he/it_was to_the_circuit(s)_of the_days and_ Ḩannāh _she/it_conceived/became_pregnant and_she/it_gave_birth a_son and_she/it_called/named DOM his/its_name Shəmūʼēl/(Samuel) if/because from_YHWH I_asked_for_him.
21 And_ the_man ʼElqānāh and_all household_of_his _he/it_ascended to_sacrifice to/for_YHWH DOM the_sacrifice_of the_days and_DOM vow_of_his.
22 And_Ḩannāh not she_went_up if/because she_said to/for_her/its_man/husband until the_lad he_will_be_weaned and_I_will_take_him and_he_will_present_himself with the_presence_of YHWH and_he_will_dwell there until perpetuity.
23 And_he/it_said to/for_her/it ʼElqānāh her/its_husband/man do the_good in_eyes_of_your remain until wean_you DOM_him/it only YHWH may_he_carry_out DOM message_of_his and_ the_woman _she_remained and_she_nursed DOM son_of_her until she_had_weaned DOM_him/it.
24 And_she_brought_him_up with_her/it just_as she_had_weaned_him with_young_bulls three and_an_ʼēyfāh one flour and_a_jar_of wine and_she_took_him the_house_of YHWH Shiloh and_the_lad was_a_lad.
25 And_they_slaughtered DOM the_young_bull and_they_brought DOM the_lad to ˊĒlī.
26 And_she/it_said pardon_me my_master by_the_life your_self_of_your my_master I the_woman who_stood with_you in_this_place to_pray to YHWH.
27 Concerning the_lad the_this I_prayed and_ YHWH _he/it_gave to_me DOM petition_of_my which I_asked from_with_him.
28 And_also I I_entrust_him to/for_YHWH all_of the_days which he_has_been he is_asked to/for_YHWH and_he_bowed_down there to/for_YHWH.
2 And_ Ḩannāh _she/it_prayed and_she/it_said heart_of_my it_exults in_YHWH horn_of_my it_is_exalted in_YHWH mouth_of_my it_has_opened_wide on enemies_of_my if/because I_rejoiced in_deliverance_of_your.
2 There_is_not a_holy_one like_YHWH if/because there_is_not except_you and_there_is_not a_rock like_god_of_our.
3 Do_not multiply you(pl)_will_speak haughty haughty arrogant_speech it_goes_out from_mouth_of_your(pl) if/because is_a_god_of knowledge(s) YHWH and[fn] deeds they_are_measured.
4 The_bow_of warriors are_shattered and_those_who_stumble they_gird_on strength.
5 Satisfied_people for_food they_hire_themselves_out and_hungry_people they_cease to a_barren_woman she_bears seven_children and_a_woman_many_of sons she_languishes.
6 YHWH is_killing and_he_is_restoring_to_life he_is_bringing_down Shəʼōl and_he_has_brought_up.
7 YHWH is_making_poor and_he_is_making_rich he_is_bringing_low also he_is_exalting.
8 He_is_raising_up from_the_dust the_poor from_the_ash_heap he_lifts_up the_needy to_cause_them_to_dwell with noble_people and_a_throne_of honour he_makes_them_inherit if/because to/for_YHWH the_pillars_of the_earth and_he_set on_them the_world.
9 The_feet_of people[fn] he_protects and_wicked_people in_darkness they_perish if/because not by_strength anyone he_prevails.
10 YHWH they_are_shattered mmm[fn] mmm[fn] in_heavens he_thunders YHWH he_judges the_ends_of the_earth and_he_gives strength to_king_of_his and_he_exalts the_horn_of his_anointed.
11 And_ ʼElqānāh _he/it_went to_(the)_Rāmāh on house_of_his and_the_lad he_was serving DOM YHWH with the_presence_of ˊĒlī the_priest/officer.
12 And_the_sons of_ˊĒlī were_sons_of worthlessness not they_knew DOM YHWH.
13 And_the_custom_of the_priests with the_people every_of person who_was_sacrificing a_sacrifice and_ the_servant_of the_priest/officer _he_came just_as_boiled the_meat and_the_fork the_three the_prongs in_his/its_hand.
14 And_he_thrust_it in_pot or in_pot or in_caldron or in_pot all that the_fork it_brought_up the_priest/officer he_took in/on/over_him/it thus they_did to/from_all/each/any/every Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) the_(ones_who)_went there in_Shiloh.
15 Also before_before they_made_smoke DOM the_fat and_he_came the_servant_of the_priest/officer and_saying(ms) to_person who_was_sacrificing give meat to_roast to_priest and_not he_will_accept from_you meat boiled if/because (if) raw.
16 And_he/it_said to_him/it the_man surely_(make_smoke) let_them_make_smoke as_day the_fat and_take to/for_yourself(m) just_as appetite_of_your it_desires and_saying(ms) mmm[fn] if/because now you_will_give_it and_if not I_take_it by_force.
17 And_it_became the_sin_of the_young_men great very with the_presence_of YHWH if/because the_men they_treated_with_contempt DOM the_offering_of YHWH.
18 And_Shəmūʼēl/(Samuel) was_serving DOM the_presence_of YHWH a_lad girded an_ephod_of linen.
19 And_a_robe small she_made for_him/it his/its_mother and_she_brought_it_up to_him/it from_days to_days when_she_went_up with her/its_husband/man to_sacrifice DOM the_sacrifice_of the_days.
20 And_ ˊĒlī _he_blessed DOM ʼElqānāh and_DOM his/its_wife/woman and_saying(ms) YHWH may_he_appoint to/for_yourself(m) offspring from the_woman (the)_this in_place_of the_petition which someone_asked to/for_YHWH and_they_went to_place_of_his.
21 If/because YHWH he_visited DOM Ḩannāh and_she/it_conceived/became_pregnant and_she/it_gave_birth three sons and_two_of daughters and_ the_lad Shəmūʼēl _he_grew_up with YHWH.
22 And_ˊĒlī he_was_old exceedingly and_he_heard DOM all_of that they_did sons_of_his to/from_all/each/any/every Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) and_DOM how they_were_lying with the_women who_were_serving the_opening_of the_tent_of meeting.
23 And_he/it_said to/for_them to/for_what are_you_doing according_the_things the_these that I am_hearing DOM things_of_your(pl) wicked from_with all_of the_people these.
24 No my_sons_of_my if/because is_not good the_report which I am_hearing the_people_of YHWH are_spreading.
25 If a_person he_will_sin to_a_person and_he_will_mediate_for_him god and_if to/for_YHWH a_person he_will_sin who will_he_intercede to_him/it and_not they_listened to_sound/voice their_father_of_their if/because YHWH he_desired to_put_them_to_death.
26 And_the_lad Shəmūʼēl/(Samuel) was_going and_was_growing_up and_he_was_good both with YHWH and_also with people.
27 And_ a_man_of god _he_came to ˊĒlī and_he/it_said to_him/it thus YHWH he_says indeed_(reveal) did_I_reveal_myself to the_house_of your_ancestor_of_your on_their_being in_Miʦrayim/(Egypt) to_the_house_of Parˊoh.
28 And_I_chose DOM_him/it from_all the_tribes_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) to_me to_a_priest to_go_up on altar_of_my to_make_smoke incense to_bear an_ephod before_me and_I_gave to_the_house_of your_ancestor_of_your DOM all_of the_fire_offerings_of the_people_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel).
29 To/for_what do_you(pl)_kick at_sacrifice_of_my and_at_offering_of_my which I_commanded a_dwelling_place and_do_you_honour DOM sons_of_your more_than_me by_making_yourselves_fat from_the_choicest_of every_of (the)_offering_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) of_people_of_my.
30 For_so/thus/hence the_utterance_of YHWH the_god_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) indeed_(say) I_said house_of_your and_the_house_of your_ancestor_of_your they_will_walk_about to/for_my_face/front until perpetuity and_now the_utterance_of YHWH far_be_it to/for_me if/because those_of_who_honour_me I_will_honour and_those_of_who_despise_me they_will_be_insignificant.

11 And_will_I_take DOM bread_of_my and_DOM water_of_my and_DOM slaughter_of_my which I_have_slaughtered for_shearers_of_my and_will_I_give_them to_men who not I_know where from_this are_they.

14 And_to_ʼAⱱīgayil the_wife_of Nāⱱāl a_young_man one of_the_young_men he_told to_say THERE Dāvid he_sent messengers from_the_wilderness to_bless DOM master(s)_of_our and_he_shouted at_them.
15 And_the_men were_good to/for_us very and_not we_were_humiliated and_not we_missed anything all_of the_days_of (of)_which_we_went_about with_them when_were_we in_field.
16 A_wall they_were with_us both night as_well_as by_day all_of the_days_of our_being with_them shepherding the_flock.
