1Now the child Samuel ministered to the Lord before Heli, and the word of the Lord was precious in those days, there was no manifest vision.
1Nawkta Samuel loe Eli hmaa ah Angraeng ih tok to sak; to nathuem ah Angraeng mah kami khaeah thuih ih lok to om ai; kamtueng ah hmuen hnuksakhaih doeh om ai.
2And it came to pass one day when Heli lay in his place, and his eyes were grown dim, that he could not see:
2To nathuem ah Eli loe a iihhaih hmuen ah angsong, to naah mik thazok sut moe, mik amtueng ai pongah, tidoeh hnu thai ai.
3Before the lamp of God went out, Samuel slept in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was.
3Sithaw ih thingkhong ohhaih, Angraeng ih tempul ah Sithaw ih hmai-im to dueh ai vop, Samuel loe iih hanah angsong kawk boeh;
4And the Lord called Samuel. And he answered: Here am I.
4to naah Angraeng mah Samuel to kawk; Samuel mah, Hae ah ka oh, tiah a naa.
5And he ran to Heli and said: Here am I: for thou didst call me. He said: I did not call: go back and sleep. And he went and slept.
5Anih loe Eli khaeah, Nang kawk pongah, kang zoh, tiah a naa. Toe Eli mah, Kang kawk ai bae; caeh loe iip ah, tiah a naa. To pongah anih loe caeh moe, angsong let.
6And the Lord called Samuel again. And Samuel arose and went to Heli, and said: Here am I: for thou calledst me. He answered: I did not call thee, my son: return and sleep.
6Angraeng mah, Samuel, tiah kawk let bae. Samuel loe angthawk moe, Eli khaeah, Nang kawk pongah, kang zoh, tiah a naa. Eli mah, Ka capa, kang kawk ai; caeh loe iip lai ah, tiah a naa.
7Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, neither had the word of the Lord been revealed to him.
7Angraeng ih lok anih khaeah angphong pae ai vop pongah, Samuel mah Angraeng ni, tiah panoek ai vop.
8And the Lord called Samuel again the third time. And he arose up and went to Heli.
8Vai thumto haih ah Angraeng mah Samuel to kawk let bae; to naah Samuel loe angthawk moe, Eli khaeah caeh, Nang kawk pongah, kang zoh, tiah a naa let bae.
9And said: Here am I: for thou didst call me. Then Heli understood that the Lord called the child, and he said to Samuel: Go, and sleep: and if he shall call thee any more, thou shalt say: Speak, Lord, for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and slept in his place.
9To pongah Eli mah Samuel khaeah, Caeh loe, iip lai ah; na kawk let nahaeloe, Angraeng, Lok na thui ah; na tamna mah tahngaih, tiah thui ah, tiah a naa. To pongah Samuel loe caeh moe, angmah ih ahmuen ah angsong let.
10And the Lord came and stood: and he called, as he had called the other times: Samuel, Samuel. And Samuel said: Speak, Lord, for thy servant heareth.
10Angraeng loe angzoh moe, to ah angdoet pacoengah, canghni ih baktih toengah, Samuel, Samuel, tiah kawk. To naah Samuel mah, Lok na thui ah, na tamna mah tahngaih, tiah a naa.
11And the Lord said to Samuel: Behold I do a thing in Israel: and whosoever shall hear it, both his ears shall tingle.
11To naah Angraeng mah Samuel khaeah, Khenah, tamthang thaih kaminawk boih, naa to taphruemsak hanah, Israel kaminawk salakah hmuen maeto ka sak han.
12In that day I will raise up against Heli all the things I have spoken concerning his house: I will begin, and I will make an end.
12To naah ka thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Eli imthung takoh nuiah hmuennawk to ka sak han; sak kam tong baktih toengah, boeng khoek to ka sak han.
13For I have foretold unto him, that I will judge his house for ever, for iniquity, because he knew that his sons did wickedly, and did not chastise them.
13A capa hnik mah panuet thok hmuen a sak hoi, tiah Eli mah panoek, toe sak han ai ah pakaa ai pongah, a imthung takoh nuiah dungzan khoek to lok ka caek han, tiah ka thuih boeh.
14Therefore have I sworn to the house of Hell, that the iniquity of his house shall not be expiated with victims nor offerings for ever.
14To pongah Eli imthung takoh mah sak ih zaehaih loe, angbawnhaih hoi hmuen paekhaih mah dungzan khoek to ciimsak mak ai boeh, tiah a naa.
15And Samuel slept till morning, and opened the doors of the house of the Lord. And Samuel feared to tell the vision to Hell.
15Samuel loe akhawnbang khoek to angsong moe, Angraeng im ih thoknawk to paongh. Samuel mah a hnuk ih hmuen kawng to Eli khaeah thuih han zit.
16Then Heli called Samuel, and said: Samuel, my son. And he answered: Here am I.
16Toe Eli mah Samuel khaeah, Ka capa, Samuel, tiah a naa. Samuel mah, Hae ah ka oh, tiah pathim pae.
17And he asked him: What is the word that the Lord hath spoken to thee? I beseech thee hide it not from me. May God do so and so to thee, and add so and so, if thou hide from me one word of all that were said to thee.
17Anih khaeah, Angraeng mah nang khaeah tih lok maw ang thuih? tiah a dueng. Kai khaeah angphat hmah, nang khaeah ang thuih ih loknawk boih to nang phat nahaeloe, Sithaw mah dan na paek tih; kanung aep ah dan na paek tih, tiah a naa.
18So Samuel told him all the words, and did not hide them from him. And he answered: It is the Lord: let him do what is good in his sight.
18To pongah kaom hmuen kawng to Samuel mah angphat ai ah thuih pae boih. To naah Eli mah, Anih loe Angraeng ni. A mikhnukah kahoih hmuen to sah nasoe, tiah thuih.
19And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and not one of his words fell to the ground.
19Samuel loe qoeng tahang, Angraeng mah anih to oh thuih; amro hanah a lok maeto doeh long ah krahsak ai.
20And all Israel from Dan to Bersabee, knew that Samuel was a faithful prophet of the Lord.
20Samuel loe Angraeng ih tahmaa ah om tih, tiah Dan hoi Beersheba vangpui khoek to kaom Israel kaminawk boih mah panoek o.
21And the Lord again appeared in Silo, for the Lord revealed himself to Samuel in Silo, according to the word of the Lord. And the word of Samuel came to pass to all Israel.
21Angraeng mah Shiloh ah angphong thuih let; Shiloh vangpui ah Angraeng mah Samuel khaeah Angraeng ih lok hoiah angphong thui let.
