1 Chanah (Hannah) palal (prayed), and amar (spoke): “My lab (heart) exults in Yahawah ()! My qaran (horn) is rawam (will lift up) in Yahawah (). My pah (mouth) is enlarged over my ayab (enemy), because I shamach (rejoice) in your yashawaih (salvation).
2 There is no one as qadawash (holy) as Yahawah (), For there is no one balathay (without) you, nor is there any tzawar (rock) like our Alahayam ().
3 “Dabar (word / matter) no more so gabah (exceeding) gabah (proudly). Don't let arrogance yatzaa (go out / come out) out of your pah (mouth), For Yahawah () is a Al of daih (knowledge). By him ilalawath (actions) are thakan (weighed).
4 “The qashath (bows) of the gabawar (mighty) men are chath (broken). Those who kashal (stumble / stagger) are armed with chayal (wealth / substance / capability / valor).
5 Those who were shabai (full) have shakar (hired) themselves out for lacham (bread). Those who were raib (hungry) are satisfied. Yes, the iqar (barren) has yalad (birth / begot) shabai (seven). She who rab (has) many banayam (children) languishes.
6 “Yahawah () mawath (death), and chayah (makes) alive. He yarad (brings) down to shaawal (Sheol / afterlife), and ilah (go up / offer) up.
7 Yahawah () yarash (makes) poor, and ishar (makes) rich. He shapal (brings) low, he also rawam (will lift up) up.
8 He qawam (rise up) up the dal (poor) out of the ipar (dust). He rawam (will lift up) up the abayawan (needy) from the dunghill, To yashab (inhabit/dwell) them sit with nadayabayam (princes), and nachal (inherit) the kasaa (throne) of kabawad (glory). For the matzaqay (pillars) of the aratz (Earth/land) are Yahawah (). He has shayath (put / appoint / make) the thabal (world) on them.
9 He will shamar (keep/guard) the ragalay (feet) of his chasayad (holy) ones, but the rashai (wicked) shall be put to damam (silence) in chashak (darkness); for no ayash (man / husband) shall gabar (prevail) by kach (strength / mighty / power).
10 Those who rayab (strive) with Yahawah () shall be broken to pieces. He will raim (thunder) against them in the sky. “Yahawah () will dayan (judge) the apasay (ends) of the aratz (Earth/land). He will nathan (give) iz (strength / might / refuge) to his malak (king), and rawam (will lift up) the qaran (horn) of his mashayach (anointed one).”
11 Alaqanah (Elkanah) yalak (went) to Ramah (Ramah) to his bayath (house). The nair (child) sharath (served) Yahawah () panayam (face) Ilay (Eli) the kahan (priest).
12 Now the banay (sons) of Ilay (Eli) were base banay (men); they didn't yadai (know) Yahawah ().
13 The mashapat (custom) of the kahanayam (priests) with the im (nation / people) was that when any ayash (man / husband) zabach (offered) zabach (sacrifice), the kahanayam (priests) nair (servant) bawaa (bring), while the bashar (flesh) was bashal (boiling), with a fork of shalawash (three) shanayam (two) in his yad (hand);
14 And he nakah (struck) it into the kayawar (pan), or dawad (kettle), or qalachath (caldron), or parawar (pot); all that the fork ilah (go up / offer) up the kahan (priest) laqach (take / seize) therewith. So they ishah (make) in Shayalah (Shiloh) to all the Yashar-Al (Israelites) who bawaa (bring) there.
15 Yes, before they burnt the chalab (fat), the kahan (priest) nair (servant) bawaa (bring), and amar (said) to the ayash (man / husband) who zabach (sacrificed), “nathan (give) meat to tzalah (roast) for the kahan (priest); for he will not laqach (take / seize) bashal (boiled) meat from you, but chay (life).”
16 If the ayash (man / husband) amar (said) to him, “Let the chalab (fat) be qatar (burned) yawam (day), and then laqach (take / seize) as much as your napash (soul) amar (said);” then he would amar (said), “No, but you shall nathan (give) it to me now; and if not, I will laqach (take / seize) it by chazaqah (force).”
17 The chataah (sin) of the nair (young) men was very gadawal (very great/important/mighty) panayam (face) Yahawah (); for the gadawal (very great/important/mighty) naatz (despised) the manachah (offering) of Yahawah ().
18 But Shamawaal (Samuel) sharath (ministered) panayam (face) Yahawah (), being a nair (child), clothed with a bad (linen) apawad (ephod).
19 Moreover his am (mother) ishah (make) him a qatan (small / young / least) maiyal (robe), and ilah (go up / offer) it to him from yawam (day) to yawam (day), when she ilah (go up / offer) up with her ayash (man / husband) to zabach (offer) the yawam (day) zabach (sacrifice).
20 Ilay (Eli) barak (blessed) Alaqanah (Elkanah) and his ayashah (woman / wife), and amar (spoke), “Yahawah () shawam (place / establish / appoint) you zarai (seed) of this ayashah (woman / wife) for the shaalah (petition) which was shaal (asked) of Yahawah ().” They halak (move) to their own maqawam (place).
21 Yahawah () paqad (visit) Chanah (Hannah), and she harah (conceived), and yalad (birth / begot) shalawash (three) banayam (sons) and shanayam (two) banawath (daughters). The nair (child) Shamawaal (Samuel) gadal (grew) im (with) Yahawah ().
22 Now Ilay (went up) was very zaqan (old); and he shamai (hearken / hear) all that his ban (son) ishah (make) to all Yashar-Al (Israel), and how that they shakab (lay) with the nashayam (women) who served at the pathach (door) of the ahal (tent) of Meeting.
23 He amar (said) to them, “Why ishah (make) you do such things? For I shamai (hearken / hear) of your rai (evil) dealings from all this im (nation / people).
24 No, my ban (son); for it is no tawab (good / proper function) shamawaih (report) that I shamai (hearken / hear): you make Yahawah () im (nation / people) disobey.
25 If one ayash (man / husband) chataa (sin) against ayash (man / husband), Alahayam () shall palal (judge) him; but if a ayash (man / husband) chataa (sin) against Yahawah (), who shall entreat for him?” Notwithstanding, they didn't shamai (hearken / hear) to the qawal (sound / voice) of their ab (father), because Yahawah () intended to mawath (death) them.
26 The nair (child) Shamawaal (Samuel) gadal (grew) on, and increased in favor both with Yahawah (), and also with halak (move).
27 A ayash (man / husband) of Alahayam () bawaa (come) to Ilay (Eli), and amar (spoke) to him, “Thus amar (spoke) Yahawah (), ‘Did I galah (reveal) myself to the bayath (house) of your ab (father), when they were in Matzarayam (Egypt) in bondage to Paraih (Pharaoh's) bayath (house)?
28 Did I bachar (choose) him out of all the shabatay (tribes) of Yashar-Al (Israel) to be my kahan (priest), to ilah (go up / offer) up to my mazabach (altar), to qatar (burn) qatarath (incense), to nashaa (lift) an apawad (ephod) panayam (face) me? Nathan (give) I give to the bayath (house) of your ab (father) all the offerings of the banay (my son) of Yashar-Al (Israel) made by Ayashah (woman / wife)?
29 Why do you bait (kick) at my zabach (sacrifice) and at my zabach (offering), which I have tzawah (commanded) in my maiwan (habitation), and honor your ban (son) above me, to baraa (created) yourselves fat with the best of all the manachah (offerings) of Yashar-Al (Israel) my im (nation / people)?’
30 “Therefore Yahawah (), the Alahayam () of Yashar-Al (Israel), naam (declares prophetically), ‘I naam (declares prophetically) amar (spoke) that your bayath (house), and the bayath (house) of your ab (father), should halak (move) panayam (face) me iwalam (forever).’ But now Yahawah () naam (declares prophetically), ‘Be it chalayalah (far) from me; for those who honor me I will honor, and those who bazah (despise) me shall be lightly qalal (esteemed).
31 Behold, the yamayam (days) bawaa (bring), that I will gadai (cut) off your zarawai (arm), and the zarawai (arm) of your ab (father) bayath (house), that there shall not be an old zaqan (man) in your bayath (house).
32 You shall nabat (see) the tzar (oppressor / distressor) of my maiwan (habitation), in all the wealth which I shall yatab (give) Yashar-Al (Israel); and there shall not be an old zaqan (man) in your bayath (house) yawam (day).
33 The ayash (man / husband) of yours, whom I shall not karath (cut) off from my mazabach (altar), shall kalah (complete / finish) your iyan (eye), and adab (grieve) your napash (soul); and all the marabayath (increase) of your bayath (house) shall mawath (death) in the flower of their age.
34 This shall be the awath (sign / mark / miracle) to you, that shall bawaa (bring) on your shanayam (two) ban (son), on Chapanay (Hophni) and Payanachas (Phinehas): in achad (one) yawam (day) they shall shanayam (two) mawath (death).
35 I will qawam (rise up) me up a aman (believe / have faith) kahan (priest), that shall ishah (make) according to that which is in my labab (heart) and in my napash (soul). I will banah (build) him a aman (believe / have faith) bayath (house); and he shall halak (move) panayam (face) my mashayach (anointed one) yawam (day).
36 It shall happen, that everyone who is yathar (left) in your bayath (house) shall bawaa (bring) and shachah (bow) down to him for a agawarah (piece) of kasap (silver) and a kakar (loaf) of lacham (bread), and shall amar (said), “Please put me into achad (one) of the kahanawath (priests)’ offices, that I may akal (eat) a path (morsel) of lacham (bread).”’”
