Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
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.
1童子 撒母耳 在 以利 面前事奉耶和華。當那些日子，耶和華的言語稀少，不常有默示。
2And it came to pass one day when Heli lay in his place, and his eyes were grown dim, that he could not see:
2一日， 以利 睡臥在自己的地方；他眼目昏花，看不分明。
3Before the lamp of God went out, Samuel slept in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was.
3上帝的燈在上帝耶和華殿內 約 櫃那裏，還沒有熄滅， 撒母耳 已經睡了。
4And the Lord called Samuel. And he answered: Here am I.
4耶和華呼喚 撒母耳 。 撒母耳 說：「我在這裏！」
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.
5就跑到 以利 那裏，說：「你呼喚我？我在這裏。」 以利 回答說：「我沒有呼喚你，你去睡吧。」他就去睡了。
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.
6耶和華又呼喚 撒母耳 。 撒母耳 起來，到 以利 那裏，說：「你呼喚我？我在這裏。」 以利 回答說：「我的兒，我沒有呼喚你，你去睡吧。」
7Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, neither had the word of the Lord been revealed to him.
7那時 撒母耳 還未認識耶和華，也未得耶和華的默示。
8And the Lord called Samuel again the third time. And he arose up and went to Heli.
8耶和華第三次呼喚 撒母耳 。 撒母耳 起來，到 以利 那裏，說：「你又呼喚我？我在這裏。」 以利 才明白是耶和華呼喚童子。
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.
9因此 以利 對 撒母耳 說：「你仍去睡吧；若再呼喚你，你就說：『耶和華啊，請說，僕人敬聽！』」 撒母耳 就去，仍睡在原處。
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.
10耶和華又來站着，像前三次呼喚說：「 撒母耳 啊！ 撒母耳 啊！」 撒母耳 回答說：「請說，僕人敬聽！」
11And the Lord said to Samuel: Behold I do a thing in Israel: and whosoever shall hear it, both his ears shall tingle.
11耶和華對 撒母耳 說：「我在 以色列 中必行一件事，叫聽見的人都必耳鳴。
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.
12我指着 以利 家所說的話，到了時候，我必始終應驗在 以利 身上。
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.
13我曾告訴他必永遠降罰與他的家，因他知道兒子作孽，自招咒詛，卻不禁止他們。
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.
14所以我向 以利 家起誓說：『 以利 家的罪孽，雖獻祭奉禮物，永不能得贖去。』」
15And Samuel slept till morning, and opened the doors of the house of the Lord. And Samuel feared to tell the vision to Hell.
15撒母耳 睡到天亮，就開了耶和華的殿門，不敢將默示告訴 以利 。
16Then Heli called Samuel, and said: Samuel, my son. And he answered: Here am I.
16以利 呼喚 撒母耳 說：「我兒 撒母耳 啊！」 撒母耳 回答說：「我在這裏！」
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.
17以利 說：「 耶和華 對你說甚麼，你不要向我隱瞞；你若將上帝對你所說的隱瞞一句，願他重重地降罰與你。」
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.
18撒母耳 就把一切話都告訴了 以利 ，並沒有隱瞞。 以利 說：「這是出於耶和華，願他憑自己的意旨而行。」
19And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and not one of his words fell to the ground.
19撒母耳 長大了，耶和華與他同在，使他所說的話一句都不落空。
20And all Israel from Dan to Bersabee, knew that Samuel was a faithful prophet of the Lord.
20從 但 到 別是巴 所有的 以色列 人都知道耶和華立 撒母耳 為先知。
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.
21耶和華又在 示羅 顯現；因為耶和華將自己的話默示 撒母耳 ， 撒母耳 就把這話傳遍 以色列 地。
