| [1]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. |
[1]And HannahH2584 prayedH6419[H8691], and saidH559[H8799], My heartH3820 rejoicethH5970[H8804] in the LORDH3068, mine hornH7161 is exaltedH7311[H8804] in the LORDH3068: my mouthH6310 is enlargedH7337[H8804] over mine enemiesH341[H8802]; because I rejoiceH8055[H8804] in thy salvationH3444. |
| [2]There is none holy like Jehovah, For there is none save Thee, And there is no rock like our God. |
[2]There is none holyH6918 as the LORDH3068: for there is none besideH1115 thee: neither is there any rockH6697 like our GodH430. |
| [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. |
[3]TalkH1696[H8762] no moreH7235[H8686] so exceedingH1364 proudlyH1364; let not arrogancyH6277 comeH3318[H8799] out of your mouthH6310: for the LORDH3068 is a GodH410 of knowledgeH1844, and by him actionsH5949 are weighedH8505.[H8738] |
| [4]Bows of the mighty are broken, And the stumbling have girded on strength. |
[4]The bowsH7198 of the mighty menH1368 are brokenH2844, and they that stumbledH3782[H8737] are girdedH247[H8804] with strengthH2428. |
| [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. |
[5]They that were fullH7649 have hired outH7936[H8738] themselves for breadH3899; and they that were hungryH7457 ceasedH2308[H8804]: so that the barrenH6135 hath bornH3205[H8804] sevenH7651; and she that hath manyH7227 childrenH1121 is waxed feebleH535.[H8797] |
| [6]Jehovah putteth to death, and keepeth alive, He bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up. |
[6]The LORDH3068 killethH4191[H8688], and maketh aliveH2421[H8764]: he bringeth downH3381[H8688] to the graveH7585, and bringeth upH5927.[H8686] |
| [7]Jehovah dispossesseth, and He maketh rich, He maketh low, yea, He maketh high. |
[7]The LORDH3068 maketh poorH3423[H8688], and maketh richH6238[H8688]: he bringeth lowH8213[H8688], andH637 lifteth upH7311.[H8789] |
| [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. |
[8]He raiseth upH6965[H8688] the poorH1800 out of the dustH6083, and lifteth upH7311[H8686] the beggarH34 from the dunghillH830, to setH3427[H8687] them among princesH5081, and to make them inheritH5157[H8686] the throneH3678 of gloryH3519: for the pillarsH4690 of the earthH776 are the LORD'SH3068, and he hath setH7896[H8799] the world upon themH8398. |
| [9]The feet of His saints He keepeth, And the wicked in darkness are silent, For not by power doth man become mighty. |
[9]He will keepH8104[H8799] the feetH7272 of his saintsH2623, and the wickedH7563 shall be silentH1826[H8735] in darknessH2822; for by strengthH3581 shall no manH376 prevailH1396.[H8799] |
| [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.' |
[10]The adversariesH7378[H8688] of the LORDH3068 shall be broken to piecesH2865[H8735]; out of heavenH8064 shall he thunderH7481[H8686] upon them: the LORDH3068 shall judgeH1777[H8799] the endsH657 of the earthH776; and he shall giveH5414[H8799] strengthH5797 unto his kingH4428, and exaltH7311[H8686] the hornH7161 of his anointedH4899. |
| [11]And Elkanah goeth to Ramath, unto his house, and the youth hath been serving Jehovah, [in] the presence of Eli the priest; |
[11]And ElkanahH511 wentH3212[H8799] to RamahH7414 to his houseH1004. And the childH5288 didH1961[H8804] ministerH8334[H8764] unto the LORDH3068 beforeH6440 EliH5941 the priestH3548. |
| [12]and the sons of Eli [are] sons of worthlessness, they have not known Jehovah. |
[12]Now the sonsH1121 of EliH5941 were sonsH1121 of BelialH1100; they knewH3045[H8804] not the LORDH3068. |
| [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, |
[13]And the priests'H3548 customH4941 with the peopleH5971 was, that, when any manH376 offeredH2076[H8802] sacrificeH2077, the priest'sH3548 servantH5288 cameH935[H8804], while the fleshH1320 was in seethingH1310[H8763], with a fleshhookH4207 of threeH7969 teethH8127 in his handH3027; |
| [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. |
[14]And he struckH5221[H8689] it into the panH3595, or kettleH1731, or caldronH7037, or potH6517; all that the fleshhookH4207 brought upH5927[H8686] the priestH3548 tookH3947[H8799] for himself. So they didH6213[H8799] in ShilohH7887 unto all the IsraelitesH3478 that cameH935 thitherH8802. |
| [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;' |
[15]Also before they burntH6999[H8686] the fatH2459, the priest'sH3548 servantH5288 cameH935[H8804], and saidH559[H8804] to the manH376 that sacrificedH2076[H8802], GiveH5414[H8798] fleshH1320 to roastH6740[H8800] for the priestH3548; for he will not haveH3947[H8799] soddenH1310[H8794] fleshH1320 of thee, but rawH2416. |
| [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.' |
[16]And if any manH376 saidH559[H8799] unto him, Let them not failH6999[H8686] to burnH6999[H8763] the fatH2459 presentlyH3117, and then takeH3947[H8798] as much as thy soulH5315 desirethH183[H8762]; then he would answerH559[H8804] him, Nay; but thou shalt giveH5414[H8799] it me now: and if not, I will takeH3947[H8804] it by forceH2394. |
| [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. |
[17]Wherefore the sinH2403 of the young menH5288 was veryH3966 greatH1419 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: for menH582 abhorredH5006[H8765] the offeringH4503 of the LORDH3068. |
| [18]And Samuel is ministering [in] the presence of Jehovah, a youth girt [with] an ephod of linen; |
[18]But SamuelH8050 ministeredH8334[H8764] beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, being a childH5288, girdedH2296[H8803] with a linenH906 ephodH646. |
| [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. |
[19]Moreover his motherH517 madeH6213[H8799] him a littleH6996 coatH4598, and broughtH5927[H8689] it to him from yearH3117 to yearH3117, when she came upH5927[H8800] with her husbandH376 to offerH2076[H8800] the yearlyH3117 sacrificeH2077. |
| [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. |
[20]And EliH5941 blessedH1288[H8765] ElkanahH511 and his wifeH802, and saidH559[H8804], The LORDH3068 giveH7760[H8799] thee seedH2233 of this womanH802 for the loanH7596 which is lentH7592[H8804] to the LORDH3068. And they wentH1980[H8804] unto their own homeH4725. |
| [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. |
[21]AndH3588 the LORDH3068 visitedH6485[H8804] HannahH2584, so that she conceivedH2029[H8799], and bareH3205[H8799] threeH7969 sonsH1121 and twoH8147 daughtersH1323. And the childH5288 SamuelH8050 grewH1431[H8799] beforeH5973 the LORDH3068. |
| [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, |
[22]Now EliH5941 was veryH3966 oldH2204[H8804], and heardH8085[H8804] all that his sonsH1121 didH6213[H8799] unto all IsraelH3478; and how they layH7901[H8799] with the womenH802 that assembledH6633[H8802] at the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150. |
| [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! |
[23]And he saidH559[H8799] unto them, Why doH6213[H8799] ye such thingsH1697? for I hearH8085[H8802] of your evilH7451 dealingsH1697 by all this peopleH5971. |
| [24]Nay, my sons; for the report which I am hearing is not good causing the people of Jehovah to transgress. -- |
[24]Nay, my sonsH1121; for it is no goodH2896 reportH8052 that I hearH8085[H8802]: ye make the LORD'SH3068 peopleH5971 to transgressH5674.[H8688] |
| [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. |
[25]If one manH376 sinH2398[H8799] against anotherH376, the judgeH430 shall judgeH6419[H8765] him: but if a manH376 sinH2398[H8799] against the LORDH3068, who shall intreatH6419[H8691] for him? Notwithstanding they hearkenedH8085[H8799] not unto the voiceH6963 of their fatherH1, because the LORDH3068 wouldH2654[H8804] slayH4191 themH8687. |
| [26]And the youth Samuel is going on and growing up, and [is] good both with Jehovah, and also with men. |
[26]And the childH5288 SamuelH8050 grewH1432 onH1980[H8802], and was in favourH2896 both with the LORDH3068, and also with menH582. |
| [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, |
[27]And there cameH935[H8799] a manH376 of GodH430 unto EliH5941, and saidH559[H8799] unto him, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068, Did I plainlyH1540[H8736] appearH1540[H8738] unto the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1, when they were in EgyptH4714 in Pharaoh'sH6547 houseH1004? |
| [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? |
[28]And did I chooseH977[H8800] him out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to be my priestH3548, to offerH5927[H8800] upon mine altarH4196, to burnH6999[H8687] incenseH7004, to wearH5375[H8800] an ephodH646 beforeH6440 me? and did I giveH5414[H8799] unto the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1 all the offerings made by fireH801 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478? |
| [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? |
[29]Wherefore kickH1163[H8799] ye at my sacrificeH2077 and at mine offeringH4503, which I have commandedH6680[H8765] in my habitationH4583; and honourestH3513[H8762] thy sonsH1121 above me, to make yourselves fatH1254[H8687] with the chiefestH7225 of all the offeringsH4503 of IsraelH3478 my peopleH5971? |
| [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. |
[30]Wherefore the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saithH5002[H8803], I saidH559[H8804] indeedH559[H8800] that thy houseH1004, and the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1, should walkH1980[H8691] beforeH6440 me forH5704 everH5769: but now the LORDH3068 saithH5002[H8803], Be it far from meH2486; for them that honourH3513[H8764] me I will honourH3513[H8762], and they that despiseH959[H8802] me shall be lightly esteemedH7043.[H8799] |
| [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; |
[31]Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935[H8802], that I will cut offH1438[H8804] thine armH2220, and the armH2220 of thy father'sH1 houseH1004, that there shall not be an old manH2205 in thine houseH1004. |
| [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. |
[32]And thou shalt seeH5027[H8689] an enemyH6862 in my habitationH4583, in all the wealth which God shall giveH3190[H8686] IsraelH3478: and there shall not be an old manH2205 in thine houseH1004 for everH3117. |
| [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; |
[33]And the manH376 of thine, whom I shall not cut offH3772[H8686] from mine altarH4196, shall be to consumeH3615[H8763] thine eyesH5869, and to grieveH109 thine heartH5315: and all the increaseH4768 of thine houseH1004 shall dieH4191[H8799] in the flower of their ageH582. |
| [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; |
[34]And this shall be a signH226 unto thee, that shall comeH935[H8799] upon thy twoH8147 sonsH1121, on HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372; in oneH259 dayH3117 they shall dieH4191[H8799] both of themH8147. |
| [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; |
[35]And I will raise me upH6965[H8689] a faithfulH539[H8737] priestH3548, that shall doH6213[H8799] according to that which is in mine heartH3824 and in my mindH5315: and I will buildH1129[H8804] him a sureH539[H8737] houseH1004; and he shall walkH1980[H8694] beforeH6440 mine anointedH4899 for everH3117. |
| [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.' |
[36]And it shall come to pass, that every one that is leftH3498[H8737] in thine houseH1004 shall comeH935[H8799] and crouchH7812[H8692] to him for a pieceH95 of silverH3701 and a morselH3603 of breadH3899, and shall sayH559[H8804], PutH5596[H8798] me, I pray thee, into oneH259 of the priests' officesH3550, that I may eatH398[H8800] a pieceH6595 of breadH3899. |
