1 Samuel 2
Ang Biblia, 2001
Nanalangin si Ana
2 Si(A) Ana ay nanalangin din at sinabi,
“Nagagalak ang aking puso sa Panginoon;
ang aking lakas ay itinataas sa Panginoon.
Tinutuya ng aking bibig ang aking mga kaaway;
sapagkat ako'y nagagalak sa iyong kaligtasan.
2 “Walang banal na gaya ng Panginoon;
sapagkat walang iba maliban sa iyo,
walang batong gaya ng aming Diyos.
3 Huwag na kayong magsalita nang may kapalaluan;
huwag lumabas sa inyong bibig ang kahambugan;
sapagkat ang Panginoon ay Diyos ng kaalaman,
at ang mga kilos ay kanyang tinitimbang.
4 Nabali ang mga pana ng mga makapangyarihan,
ngunit ang mahihina ay nagbigkis ng kalakasan.
5 Ang mga busog ay nagpaupa dahil sa tinapay;
subalit ang dating gutom, gutom nila'y naparam.
Ang baog ay pito ang isinilang,
ngunit ang may maraming anak ay namamanglaw.
6 Ang Panginoon ay pumapatay at bumubuhay;
siya ang nagbababa sa Sheol at nag-aahon.
7 Ang Panginoon ay nagpapadukha at nagpapayaman;
siya ang nagpapababa, at siya rin ay nagpaparangal.
8 Kanyang ibinabangon ang dukha mula sa alabok,
itinataas niya ang nangangailangan mula sa bunton ng abo,
upang sila'y paupuing kasama ng mga pinuno,
at magmana ng trono ng karangalan.
Sapagkat ang mga haligi ng lupa ay sa Panginoon,
at sa mga iyon ay ipinatong niya ang sanlibutan.
9 “Kanyang iingatan ang mga paa ng kanyang mga banal;
ngunit ang masama ay ihihiwalay sa kadiliman;
sapagkat hindi dahil sa lakas na ang tao'y nagtatagumpay.
10 Ang mga kaaway ng Panginoon ay madudurog;
laban sa kanila sa langit siya'y magpapakulog.
Hahatulan ng Panginoon ang mga dulo ng lupa;
bibigyan niya ng kalakasan ang kanyang hari,
at itataas ang kapangyarihan ng kanyang hinirang.”
11 Pagkatapos si Elkana ay umuwi sa Rama. At ang batang lalaki ay naglingkod sa Panginoon sa harapan ni Eli na pari.
Ang mga Anak ni Eli
12 Ngayon, ang mga anak ni Eli ay mga lapastangan; wala silang pakundangan sa Panginoon,
13 o sa mga katungkulan ng mga pari sa mga taong-bayan. Kapag ang sinuma'y naghahandog ng alay, lumalapit ang lingkod ng pari habang ang laman ay pinakukuluan na may hawak sa kamay na pang-ipit na may tatlong pantusok.
14 Ilalagay niya ito sa kawali, o sa kawa, o sa kaldero, o sa palayok at lahat ng mahahango ng pantusok ay kukunin ng pari para sa kanyang sarili. Gayon ang ginagawa nila sa Shilo sa lahat ng mga Israelitang nagpupunta roon.
15 Bukod dito, bago nila sunugin ang taba, lalapit ang lingkod ng pari at sasabihin sa lalaking naghahandog, “Bigyan mo ng maiihaw na laman ang pari, sapagkat hindi siya tatanggap mula sa iyo ng lutong laman, kundi hilaw.”
16 Kung sabihin ng lalaki sa kanya, “Sunugin muna nila ang taba at saka ka kumuha ng gusto mo,” ay sasabihin niya, “Hindi, dapat mong ibigay na ngayon; at kung hindi, ay kukunin ko nang sapilitan.”
17 Kaya't ang kasalanan ng mga kabataang iyon ay napakalaki sa harap ng Panginoon; sapagkat winalang kabuluhan ng mga tao ang handog sa Panginoon.
Si Samuel sa Shilo
18 Si Samuel ay naglilingkod sa harap ng Panginoon, isang batang may bigkis na linong efod.
19 At iginagawa siya noon ng kanyang ina ng isang munting balabal at dinadala sa kanya taun-taon, kapag siya'y umaahong kasama ng kanyang asawa upang maghandog ng taunang alay.
20 Binabasbasan naman ni Eli si Elkana at ang kanyang asawa at sinasabi, “Bigyan ka nawa ng Panginoon ng binhi sa babaing ito para sa kahilingan na kanyang hiniling sa Panginoon.”[a] Pagkatapos sila'y umuuwi sa kanilang sariling bahay.
21 Dinalaw ng Panginoon si Ana at siya'y naglihi, at nagkaanak ng tatlong lalaki at dalawang babae. At ang batang si Samuel ay lumaki sa harapan ng Panginoon.
Si Eli at ang Kanyang mga Anak
22 Ngayon si Eli ay napakatanda na. Kanyang nabalitaan ang lahat ng ginagawa ng kanyang mga anak sa buong Israel, at kung paanong sila'y sumisiping sa mga babae na naglilingkod sa pintuan ng toldang tipanan.
23 Kaya't sinabi niya sa kanila, “Bakit ninyo ginagawa ang mga gayong bagay? Sapagkat nababalitaan ko sa buong bayan ang inyong masasamang gawain.
24 Huwag, mga anak ko; sapagkat hindi mabuting balita ang naririnig ko na ikinakalat ng bayan ng Panginoon.
25 Kung ang isang tao ay magkasala laban sa isang tao, ang Diyos ay mamamagitan para sa kanya; ngunit kung ang isang tao ay magkasala laban sa Panginoon, sino ang mamamagitan para sa kanya?” Subalit ayaw nilang pakinggan ang tinig ng kanilang ama, sapagkat kalooban ng Panginoon na patayin sila.
26 Ang(B) batang si Samuel ay patuloy na lumaki sa pangangatawan at gayundin sa pagbibigay-lugod sa Panginoon at sa mga tao.
Ang Propesiya Laban sa Sambahayan ni Eli
27 Dumating kay Eli ang isang tao ng Diyos at sinabi sa kanya, “Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, ‘Ipinahayag ko ang aking sarili sa sambahayan ng iyong ama nang sila'y nasa Ehipto, nang sila'y mga alipin sa sambahayan ni Faraon.
28 Pinili(C) ko siya mula sa lahat ng mga lipi ng Israel upang maging pari ko, upang maghandog sa aking dambana, upang magsunog ng insenso, at magsuot ng efod sa harap ko. Ibinigay ko sa sambahayan ng iyong ama ang lahat ng mga handog ng mga anak ni Israel na pinaraan sa apoy.
29 Bakit niyuyurakan ninyo ang aking mga alay at ang aking handog na aking iniutos, at iyong pinararangalan ang iyong mga anak nang higit kaysa akin, upang kayo'y magpakataba sa mga pinakapiling bahagi sa bawat handog ng Israel na aking bayan?’
30 Kaya't ipinahahayag ng Panginoong Diyos ng Israel, ‘Aking ipinangako na ang iyong sambahayan, at ang sambahayan ng iyong ama ay lalakad sa harapan ko magpakailanman.’ Ngunit ipinahahayag ngayon ng Panginoon, ‘Malayo sa akin; sapagkat ang mga nagpaparangal sa akin ay aking pararangalan, at ang mga humahamak sa akin ay mawawalan ng kabuluhan.
31 Tingnan mo, ang mga araw ay dumating na aking puputulin ang iyong bisig at ang bisig ng sambahayan ng iyong ama, upang huwag magkaroon ng matanda sa iyong sambahayan.
32 At sa kapighatian ay iyong mamasdan na may pagkainggit ang buong kasaganaan na ibibigay ng Diyos sa Israel; at hindi na magkakaroon ng matanda sa iyong sambahayan magpakailanman.
33 Ang lalaki mula sa iyo na hindi ko ihihiwalay sa aking dambana ay maliligtas sa pagluha ng kanyang mga mata at pamamanglaw ng kanyang puso; at ang lahat ng naparagdag sa iyong sambahayan ay mamamatay sa kanilang kabataan.
34 Ang(D) mangyayari sa iyong dalawang anak na sina Hofni at Finehas ay magiging tanda sa iyo. Sila'y kapwa mamamatay sa iisang araw.
35 Ako'y magbabangon para sa akin ng isang tapat na pari, na gagawa nang ayon sa nilalaman ng aking puso at pag-iisip. Ipagtatayo ko siya ng panatag na sambahayan; at siya'y maglalabas-masok sa harap ng aking binuhusan ng langis magpakailanman.
36 Bawat isang naiwan sa iyong sambahayan ay lalapit at magmamakaawa sa kanya para sa isang pirasong pilak at sa isang pirasong tinapay, at magsasabi, Hinihiling ko sa iyo na ilagay mo ako sa isa sa mga katungkulang pagkapari, upang makakain ako ng isang subong tinapay.’”

1 Samuel 2
Young's Literal Translation
2 And Hannah prayeth, and saith: `My heart hath exulted in Jehovah, My horn hath been high in Jehovah, My mouth hath been large over mine enemies, For I have rejoiced in Thy salvation.
2 There is none holy like Jehovah, For there is none save Thee, And there is no rock like our God.
3 Ye multiply not -- ye speak haughtily -- The old saying goeth out from your mouth, For a God of knowledge [is] Jehovah, And by Him actions are weighed.
4 Bows of the mighty are broken, And the stumbling have girded on strength.
5 The satiated for bread hired themselves, And the hungry have ceased. While the barren hath borne seven, And she abounding with sons hath languished.
6 Jehovah putteth to death, and keepeth alive, He bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up.
7 Jehovah dispossesseth, and He maketh rich, He maketh low, yea, He maketh high.
8 He raiseth from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He lifteth up the needy, To cause [them] to sit with nobles, Yea, a throne of honour He doth cause them to inherit, For to Jehovah [are] the fixtures of earth, And He setteth on them the habitable world.
9 The feet of His saints He keepeth, And the wicked in darkness are silent, For not by power doth man become mighty.
10 Jehovah -- broken down are His adversaries, Against them in the heavens He thundereth: Jehovah judgeth the ends of earth, And giveth strength to His king, And exalteth the horn of His anointed.'
11 And Elkanah goeth to Ramath, unto his house, and the youth hath been serving Jehovah, [in] the presence of Eli the priest;
12 and the sons of Eli [are] sons of worthlessness, they have not known Jehovah.
13 And the custom of the priests with the people [is]: any man sacrificing a sacrifice -- then hath the servant of the priest come in when the flesh is boiling, and the hook of three teeth in his hand,
14 and hath struck [it] into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the hook bringeth up doth the priest take for himself; thus they do to all Israel who are coming in, there, in Shiloh.
15 Also before they make perfume with the fat -- then hath the priest's servant come in, and said to the man who is sacrificing, `Give flesh to roast for the priest, and he doth not take of thee flesh boiled, but raw;'
16 and the man saith unto him, `Let them surely make a perfume (as to-day) with the fat, then take to thee as thy soul desireth;' and he hath said to him, `Surely now thou dost give; and if not -- I have taken by strength.'
17 And the sin of the young men is very great [in] the presence of Jehovah, for the men have despised the offering of Jehovah.
18 And Samuel is ministering [in] the presence of Jehovah, a youth girt [with] an ephod of linen;
19 and a small upper coat doth his mother make to him, and she hath brought it up to him from time to time, in her coming up with her husband to sacrifice the sacrifice of the time.
20 And Eli blessed Elkanah, and his wife, and said, `Jehovah doth appoint for thee seed of this woman, for the petition which she asked for Jehovah;' and they have gone to their place.
21 When Jehovah hath looked after Hannah, then she conceiveth and beareth three sons and two daughters; and the youth Samuel groweth up with Jehovah.
22 And Eli [is] very old, and hath heard all that his sons do to all Israel, and how that they lie with the women who are assembling [at] the opening of the tent of meeting,
23 and he saith to them, `Why do ye things like these? for I am hearing of your evil words from all the people -- these!
24 Nay, my sons; for the report which I am hearing is not good causing the people of Jehovah to transgress. --
25 If a man sin against a man, then hath God judged him; but if against Jehovah a man sin, who doth pray for him?' and they hearken not to the voice of their father, though Jehovah hath delighted to put them to death.
26 And the youth Samuel is going on and growing up, and [is] good both with Jehovah, and also with men.
27 And there cometh a man of God unto Eli, and saith unto him, `Thus said Jehovah, Was I really revealed unto the house of thy father in their being in Egypt, before Pharaoh's house,
28 even to choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to Me for a priest, to go up on Mine altar, to make a perfume, to bear an ephod before Me, and I give to the house of thy father all the fire-offerings of the sons of Israel?
29 Why do ye kick at My sacrifice, and at Mine offering which I commanded [in] My habitation, and dost honour thy sons above Me, to make yourselves fat from the first part of every offering of Israel, of My people?
30 `Therefore -- the affirmation of Jehovah, God of Israel -- I certainly said, Thy house and the house of thy father, do walk up and down before Me to the age; and now -- the affirmation of Jehovah -- Far be it from Me! for he who is honouring Me, I honour, and those despising Me, are lightly esteemed.
31 `Lo, days [are] coming, and I have cut off thine arm, and the arm of the house of thy father, that an old man is not in thy house;
32 and thou hast beheld an adversary [in My] habitation, in all that He doth good with Israel, and there is not an old man in thy house all the days.
33 `And the man I cut not off of thine from Mine altar, [is] to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy soul; and all the increase of thy house do die men;
34 and this [is] to thee the sign that cometh unto thy two sons, unto Hophni and Phinehas -- in one day they die both of them;
35 and I have raised up for Me a stedfast priest; as in My heart and in My soul he doth do; and I have built for him a stedfast house, and he hath walked up and down before Mine anointed all the days;
36 and it hath been, every one who is left in thy house doth come in to bow himself to him, for a wage of silver, and a cake of bread, and hath said, Admit me, I pray thee, unto one of the priest's offices, to eat a morsel of bread.'
1 Samuel 2
King James Version
2 And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the Lord, mine horn is exalted in the Lord: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.
2 There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
4 The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.
6 The Lord killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up.
7 The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth 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 hath set the world upon them.
9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
10 The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the Lord before Eli the priest.
12 Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the Lord.
13 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 fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;
14 And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.
15 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 thee, but raw.
16 And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, Nay; but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord: for men abhorred the offering of the Lord.
18 But Samuel ministered before the Lord, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
19 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 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The Lord give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the Lord. And they went unto their own home.
21 And the Lord visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the Lord.
22 Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
23 And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
24 Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: ye make the Lord's people to transgress.
25 If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the Lord, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the Lord would slay them.
26 And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the Lord, and also with men.
27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?
28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
29 Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
30 Wherefore the Lord God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the Lord saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.
32 And thou shalt see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.
33 And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of their age.
34 And this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.
35 And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed for ever.
36 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thine house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
