1 Samuel 3

At ang batang si Samuel ay nangangasiwa sa Panginoon sa harap ni Eli. At ang salita ng Panginoon ay mahalaga noong mga araw na yaon; walang hayag na pangitain.

The child Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. The LORD ’s word was rare in those days. There were not many visions, then.

At nangyari nang panahon na yaon, nang si Eli ay mahiga sa kaniyang dako, (ang kaniya ngang mata'y nagpasimulang lumabo, na siya'y hindi nakakita,)

At that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see),

At ang ilawan ng Dios ay hindi pa namamatay, at si Samuel ay nakahiga upang matulog, sa templo ng Panginoon, na kinaroroonan ng kaban ng Dios;

and God ’s lamp hadn’t yet gone out, and Samuel had laid down in the LORD ’s temple where God ’s ark was,

Na tinawag ng Panginoon si Samuel: at kaniyang sinabi, Narito ako.

The LORD called Samuel. He said, “ Here I am.”

At siya'y tumakbo kay Eli, at nagsabi, Narito ako; sapagka't tinawag mo ako. At kaniyang sinabi, Hindi ako tumawag; mahiga ka uli. At siya'y yumaon at nahiga.

He ran to Eli and said, “ Here I am; for you called me.” He said, “ I didn’t call. Lie down again.” He went and lay down.

At tumawag pa uli ang Panginoon, Samuel. At bumangon si Samuel at naparoon kay Eli, at nagsabi, Narito ako: sapagka't ako'y tinawag mo. At siya'y sumagot, Hindi ako tumawag, anak ko; mahiga ka uli.

The LORD called yet again, “ Samuel!” Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, “ Here I am; for you called me.” He answered, “ I didn’t call, my son. Lie down again.”

Hindi pa nga nakikilala ni Samuel ang Panginoon, o ang salita man ng Panginoon ay nahahayag pa sa kaniya.

Now Samuel didn’t yet know the LORD, neither was the LORD ’s word yet revealed to him.

At tinawag uli ng Panginoon na ikaitlo. At siya'y bumangon, at naparoon kay Eli, at nagsabi, Narito ako; sapagka't ako'y iyong tinawag. At nahalata ni Eli na tinatawag ng Panginoon ang bata.

The LORD called Samuel again the third time. He arose and went to Eli and said, “ Here I am; for you called me.” Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.

Kaya't sinabi ni Eli kay Samuel, Yumaon ka, mahiga ka: at mangyayari, na kung tatawagin ka niya, ay iyong sasabihin, Magsalita ka, Panginoon; sapagka't dinirinig ng iyong lingkod. Sa gayo'y yumaon si Samuel at nahiga sa kaniyang dako.

Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “ Go, lie down. It shall be, if he calls you, that you shall say, ‘ Speak, LORD; for your servant hears.’” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

At ang Panginoon ay naparoon, at tumayo, at tumawag na gaya ng una, Samuel, Samuel. Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Samuel, Magsalita ka; sapagka't dinirinig ng iyong lingkod.

The LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, “ Samuel! Samuel!” Then Samuel said, “ Speak; for your servant hears.”

At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Samuel, Narito, gagawa ako ng isang bagay sa Israel, na ang dalawang tainga ng bawa't isa na nakikinig ay magpapanting.

The LORD said to Samuel, “ Behold, I will do a thing in Israel at which both the ears of everyone who hears it will tingle.

Sa araw na yaon ay aking tutuparin kay Eli ang lahat na aking sinalita tungkol sa kaniyang sangbahayan, mula sa pasimula hanggang sa wakas.

In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from the beginning even to the end.

Sapagka't aking isinaysay sa kaniya na aking huhukuman ang kaniyang sangbahayan magpakailan man, dahil sa kasamaan na kaniyang nalalaman, sapagka't ang kaniyang mga anak ay nagdala ng sumpa sa kanilang sarili, at hindi niya sinangsala sila.

For I have told him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knew, because his sons brought a curse on themselves, and he didn’t restrain them.

At kaya't ako'y sumumpa sa sangbahayan ni Eli, na ang kasamaan ng sangbahayan ni Eli ay hindi mapapawi ng hain, o handog man magpakailan man.

Therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli ’s house shall not be removed with sacrifice or offering forever.”

At nahiga si Samuel hanggang sa kinaumagahan, at ibinukas ang mga pinto ng bahay ng Panginoon. At natakot si Samuel na saysayin kay Eli ang panaginip.

Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the LORD ’s house. Samuel was afraid to show Eli the vision.

Nang magkagayo'y tinawag ni Eli si Samuel, at nagsabi, Samuel, anak ko. At kaniyang sinabi, Narito ako.

Then Eli called Samuel and said, “ Samuel, my son!” He said, “ Here I am.”

At kaniyang sinabi, Ano ang bagay na sinalita sa iyo? isinasamo ko sa iyo na huwag mong ilihim sa akin: hatulan ka ng Dios, at lalo na, kung iyong ililihim sa akin ang anomang bagay sa lahat ng mga bagay na kaniyang sinalita sa iyo.

He said, “ What is the thing that he has spoken to you? Please don’t hide it from me. God do so to you, and more also, if you hide anything from me of all the things that he spoke to you.”

At isinaysay sa kaniya ni Samuel ang buong sinalita, at hindi naglihim ng anoman sa kaniya. At kaniyang sinabi, Panginoon nga: gawin niya ang inaakala niyang mabuti.

Samuel told him every bit, and hid nothing from him. He said, “ It is the LORD. Let him do what seems good to him.”

At si Samuel ay lumalaki at ang Panginoon ay sumasakaniya, at walang di pinapangyari sa kaniyang mga salita.

Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground.

At nakilala ng buong Israel mula sa Dan hanggang sa Beer-seba na si Samuel ay itinatag na maging propeta ng Panginoon.

All Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.

At napakilala uli ang Panginoon sa Silo, sapagka't ang Panginoo'y napakilala kay Samuel sa Silo sa pamamagitan ng salita ng Panginoon.

The LORD appeared again in Shiloh; for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the LORD ’s word.
