1 Samuel 2
Maori Bible
2 Na ka karakia a Hana, ka mea, E whakamanamana ana toku ngakau ki a Ihowa, kua ara toku haona i a Ihowa; ka rahi toku waha ki oku hoariri; noku ka koa ki tau whakaoranga.
2 Kahore he mea tapu, ko Ihowa anake; kahore ke atu, ko koe anake: kahore ano hoki he kamaka hei rite mo to tatou Atua.
3 Kati te whakanui i te korero whakahihi; kei puta te whakapehapeha i o koutou mangai: he Atua mohio hoki a Ihowa, a ka paunatia e ia nga mahi.
4 Whati ana nga kopere a te hunga marohirohi; a ko te hunga i tutuki te waewae, ko te kaha hei whitiki mo ratou.
5 E mahi ana hei utu taro te hunga i makona i mua; a mutu ake ta te hunga i matekai: heoi kua tokowhitu a te pakoko i whanau ai; a iwikore noa iho te mea kua tokomaha nei ana tamariki.
6 Ko Ihowa e whakamate ana, a ko ia e whakaora ana: mana e riro ai ki raro ki te reinga, mana e kake ai ki runga.
7 Ko Ihowa hei whakarawakore, ko ia hei whakawhiwhi ki te taonga: mana e whakaiti, mana ano hoki e whakaara.
8 Whakaarahia ana e ia te iti i roto i te puehu, ara ana i a ia te iti i roto i te puehu, ara ana i a ia te rawakore i roto i te puranga paru, a whakanohoia iho ki roto ki nga rangatira, meinga ana kia whiwhi ki te torona kororia: no Ihowa ra hoki nga pou turanga o te whenua; a whakanohoia iho e ia te ao ki runga.
9 Mana nga waewae o tana hunga tapu e tiaki; ko te hunga kino ia ka whakanohoia ki roto ki te pouri wahangu ai; ehara hoki te kaha i te mea e riro ai te papa i te tangata.
10 Mongamonga noa nga hoariri o Ihowa; ka papa mai tana whatitiri i te rangi ki a ratou: ka whakarite whakawa a Ihowa mo nga pito o te whenua; mana e homai he kaha ki tana kingi, e whakaara te haona o tana i whakawahi ai.
11 Na ka haere a Erekana ki Rama, ki tona whare. A minita ana taua tamaiti ki a Ihowa i te aroaro o te tohunga, o Eri.
12 Na he tama na Periara nga tama a Eri; kihai ratou i mohio ki a Ihowa.
13 Na ko te tikanga tenei a nga tohunga i roto i te iwi; i te patunga a tetahi i te whakahere, ka haere te tangata a te tohunga, i te mea kei te kohua ano nga kiko, me te marau e toru nei nga koikoi i tona ringa;
14 Na ka werohia e ia ki te peihana, ki te pata ranei, ki te hopane ranei, ki te kohua ranei; ko nga mea katoa i riro ake i te marau, i tangohia e te tohunga ki taua mea. Pena tonu ta ratou mahi i Hiro ki nga Iharaira katoa i haere ki reira.
15 Ae ra, i te mea ano hoki kahore i tahuna noatia nga ngako, ka haere te tangata a te tohunga, ka mea ki te tangata nana te whakahere, Homai tetahi wahi kiko kia tunua ma te tohunga; e kore hoki ia e tango i au kiko, i te mea kohua, engari i te me a mata.
16 A, ki te ki mai te tangata ki a ia, Aianei pu tahuna ai e ratou te ngako, a hei reira koe tango ai i ta tou ngakau i pai ai; katahi tera ka mea atu, Kahore; engari me homai e koe aianei; a, ki te kahore, ka tangohia maoritia e ahau.
17 Na nui atu te hara o aua taitama i te aroaro o Ihowa: no te mea i whakarihariha nga tangata ki te whakahere a Ihowa.
18 Ko Hamuera ia i minita ki te aroaro o Ihowa, he tamariki nei ia, whitiki rawa tona epora rinena.
19 I hanga ano he koroka iti e tona whaea mona, a kawea ana ki a ia i tenei tau, i tenei tau, i o raua haerenga ko tana tahu ki te patu i te whakahere o te tau.
20 Na ka whakapai a Eri i a Erekana raua ko tana wahine, ka mea, Ma Ihowa e homai he uri ki a koe i roto i tenei wahine mo tenei ka tukua nei ki a Ihowa. Na hoki ana raua ki to raua wahi.
21 Na ka titiro a Ihowa ki a Hana, a ka hapu ano ia, ka whanau, tokotoru nga tama, tokorua nga kotiro. A tupu ana te tamaiti, a Hamuera, i te aroaro o Ihowa.
22 Na kua koroheke rawa a Eri; kua rongo hoki ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ana tama ki a Iharaira katoa, ki to raua takotaoranga hoki ki nga wahine i mahi ki te whatitoka o te tapenakara o te whakaminenga.
23 Na ka mea ia ki a raua, He aha korua i mahi ai i enei mea? kua rongo hoki ahau ki tenei iwi katoa ki a korua mahi kino.
24 Kati ra, e aku tama; ehara hoki i te pai te korero e rangona nei e ahau: e mea ana korua i te iwi o Ihowa kia peka ke.
25 Ki te hara he tangata ki tona hoa, ma te Atua te whakawa mona: tena ko tenei ka hara te tangata ki a Ihowa, ko wai hei kaiwawao mona? Heoi kihai raua i pai ki te whakarongo ki te reo o to raua papa, no te mea i pai a Ihowa kia whakamatea raua.
26 A nui haere ana ano taua tamaiti, a Hamuera, e paingia ana e Ihowa, e nga tangata.
27 Na ka haere mai tetahi tangata a te Atua ki a Eri, ka mea ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Kahore ianei ahau i puta marama ki te whare o tou papa, i a ratou i Ihipa, i pononga ai i te whare o Parao?
28 Kahore ranei ahau i whiriwhiri i a ia i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira hei tohunga moku, hei whakaeke whakahere ki runga ki taku aata, hei tahu whakakakara, hei kakahu i te epora ki toku aroaro? a hoatu ana ki te whare o tou papa nga whakahere ahi katoa a nga tamariki a Iharaira?
29 A he aha koutou i takahi ai i oku patunga tapu, i oku whakahere, i kiia e ahau mo toku nohoanga; i a koe ka whakahonore nei i au tama ki runga ake i ahau, a ka tetere nei koutou i nga mea papai o nga whakahere katoa a Iharaira, a taku iwi?
30 Na reira tenei kupu a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, He tika i mea ahau, ko tou whare me te whare o tou matua ka haere i toku aroaro a ake ake: na ko ta Ihowa kupu tenei inaianei, Kahore ra hoki; ka whakahonore hoki ahau i te hunga e whakahonore a na i ahau, ka whakaiti ano i te hunga e whakahawea ana ki ahau.
31 Nana, meake puta nga ra e tapahia ai e ahau tou ringa, me te ringa o te whare o tou papa, a kore iho tetahi koroheke i roto i tou whare.
32 A ka kite koe i te tukinotanga i toku nohoanga, i nga pai katoa e hoatu e te Atua ki a Iharaira; e kore ano tou whare e whai koroheke a ake ake.
33 Na, ko te tangata au e kore e hautopea atu i taku aata, ka ai ia hei whakapaunga mo ou kanohi, hei whakamamae mo tou ngakau: whakakaumatua kau hoki nga whanau hou o tou whare, ka mate i to ratou taiohinga.
34 Ko te tohu hoki tenei ki a koe, ka puta ki au tama tokorua, ki a Hoponi raua ko Pinehaha, kotahi ano te ra e mate ai raua tokorua.
35 A ka whakaarahia ake e ahau he tohunga pono maku, hei mahi i ta toku ngakau, i ta toku hinengaro i pai ai, maku ano e hanga he whare pumau mona; a ka haereere ia i nga ra katoa i te aroaro o taku e whakawahi ai.
36 A, ko te hunga katoa e mahue iho ki tou whare, ka haere mai, ka piko iho ki a ia mo tetahi pihi hiriwa, mo tetahi wahi taro, ka mea, Tena koe, kia uru atu ahau ki tetahi o nga mahi tohunga, kia kai ai ahau i tetahi kongakonga taro.

Hannah’s Prayer
2 Then Hannah prayed and said:(A)
“My heart rejoices(B) in the Lord;
in the Lord my horn[a](C) is lifted high.
My mouth boasts(D) over my enemies,(E)
for I delight in your deliverance.
2 “There is no one holy(F) like(G) the Lord;
there is no one besides you;
there is no Rock(H) like our God.
3 “Do not keep talking so proudly
or let your mouth speak such arrogance,(I)
for the Lord is a God who knows,(J)
and by him deeds(K) are weighed.(L)
4 “The bows of the warriors are broken,(M)
but those who stumbled are armed with strength.(N)
5 Those who were full hire themselves out for food,
but those who were hungry(O) are hungry no more.
She who was barren(P) has borne seven children,
but she who has had many sons pines away.
6 “The Lord brings death and makes alive;(Q)
he brings down to the grave and raises up.(R)
7 The Lord sends poverty and wealth;(S)
he humbles and he exalts.(T)
8 He raises(U) the poor(V) from the dust(W)
and lifts the needy(X) from the ash heap;
he seats them with princes
and has them inherit a throne of honor.(Y)
“For the foundations(Z) of the earth are the Lord’s;
on them he has set the world.
9 He will guard the feet(AA) of his faithful servants,(AB)
but the wicked will be silenced in the place of darkness.(AC)
“It is not by strength(AD) that one prevails;
10 those who oppose the Lord will be broken.(AE)
The Most High will thunder(AF) from heaven;
the Lord will judge(AG) the ends of the earth.
11 Then Elkanah went home to Ramah,(AJ) but the boy ministered(AK) before the Lord under Eli the priest.
Eli’s Wicked Sons
12 Eli’s sons were scoundrels; they had no regard(AL) for the Lord. 13 Now it was the practice(AM) of the priests that, whenever any of the people offered a sacrifice, the priest’s servant would come with a three-pronged fork in his hand while the meat(AN) was being boiled 14 and would plunge the fork into the pan or kettle or caldron or pot. Whatever the fork brought up the priest would take for himself. This is how they treated all the Israelites who came to Shiloh. 15 But even before the fat was burned, the priest’s servant would come and say to the person who was sacrificing, “Give the priest some meat to roast; he won’t accept boiled meat from you, but only raw.”
16 If the person said to him, “Let the fat(AO) be burned first, and then take whatever you want,” the servant would answer, “No, hand it over now; if you don’t, I’ll take it by force.”
17 This sin of the young men was very great in the Lord’s sight, for they[b] were treating the Lord’s offering with contempt.(AP)
18 But Samuel was ministering(AQ) before the Lord—a boy wearing a linen ephod.(AR) 19 Each year his mother made him a little robe and took it to him when she went up with her husband to offer the annual(AS) sacrifice. 20 Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, saying, “May the Lord give you children by this woman to take the place of the one she prayed(AT) for and gave to[c] the Lord.” Then they would go home. 21 And the Lord was gracious to Hannah;(AU) she gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Meanwhile, the boy Samuel grew(AV) up in the presence of the Lord.
22 Now Eli, who was very old, heard about everything(AW) his sons were doing to all Israel and how they slept with the women(AX) who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 23 So he said to them, “Why do you do such things? I hear from all the people about these wicked deeds of yours. 24 No, my sons; the report I hear spreading among the Lord’s people is not good. 25 If one person sins against another, God[d] may mediate for the offender; but if anyone sins against the Lord, who will(AY) intercede(AZ) for them?” His sons, however, did not listen to their father’s rebuke, for it was the Lord’s will to put them to death.
26 And the boy Samuel continued to grow(BA) in stature and in favor with the Lord and with people.(BB)
Prophecy Against the House of Eli
27 Now a man of God(BC) came to Eli and said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Did I not clearly reveal myself to your ancestor’s family when they were in Egypt under Pharaoh? 28 I chose(BD) your ancestor out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense,(BE) and to wear an ephod(BF) in my presence. I also gave your ancestor’s family all the food offerings(BG) presented by the Israelites. 29 Why do you[e] scorn my sacrifice and offering(BH) that I prescribed for my dwelling?(BI) Why do you honor your sons more than me by fattening yourselves on the choice parts of every offering made by my people Israel?’
30 “Therefore the Lord, the God of Israel, declares: ‘I promised that members of your family would minister before me forever.(BJ)’ But now the Lord declares: ‘Far be it from me! Those who honor me I will honor,(BK) but those who despise(BL) me will be disdained.(BM) 31 The time is coming when I will cut short your strength and the strength of your priestly house, so that no one in it will reach old age,(BN) 32 and you will see distress(BO) in my dwelling. Although good will be done to Israel, no one in your family line will ever reach old age.(BP) 33 Every one of you that I do not cut off from serving at my altar I will spare only to destroy your sight and sap your strength, and all your descendants(BQ) will die in the prime of life.
34 “‘And what happens to your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, will be a sign(BR) to you—they will both die(BS) on the same day.(BT) 35 I will raise up for myself a faithful priest,(BU) who will do according to what is in my heart and mind. I will firmly establish his priestly house, and they will minister before my anointed(BV) one always. 36 Then everyone left in your family line will come and bow down before him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread and plead,(BW) “Appoint me to some priestly office so I can have food to eat.(BX)”’”
