  2:1 ¶
My heart is established in the Lord, my horn is exalted in my God; my mouth is enlarged over my enemies, I have rejoiced in thy salvation. |
|
2:1 ¶
And Hannah°
prayed,°°
and said,°°
My heart°
rejoiceth°°
in Yahweh,°
mine horn°
is exalted°°
in Yahweh:°
my mouth°
is enlarged°°
over°
mine enemies;°°
because°
I rejoice°°
in thy salvation.° |
|
2:2
For there is none holy as the Lord, and there is none righteous as our God; there is none holy besides thee. |
|
2:2
[There is] none°
holy°
as Yahweh:°
for°
[there is] none°
beside°
thee: neither°
[is there] any rock°
like our Elohim.° |
|
2:3
Boast not, and utter not high things; let not high-sounding words come out of your mouth, for the Lord [is] a God of knowledge, and God prepares his own designs. |
|
2:3
Talk°°
no°
more°°
so exceeding°
proudly;°
let [not] arrogancy°
come°°
out°
of your mouth:°°
for°
Yahweh°
[is] an El°
of knowledge,°
and by him actions°
are weighed.°° |
|
2:4
The bow of the mighty has waxed feeble, and the weak have girded themselves with strength. |
|
2:4
The bows°
of the mighty men°
[are] broken,°
and they that stumbled°°
are girded°°
with strength.° |
|
2:5
They that were full of bread are brought low; and the hungry have forsaken the land; for the barren has born seven, and she that abounded in children has waxed feeble. |
|
2:5
[They that were] full°
have hired out°°
themselves°
for bread;°
and [they that were] hungry°
ceased:°°
so that°
the barren°
hath born°°
seven;°
and she that hath many°
children°
is waxed feeble.°° |
|
2:6
The Lord kills and makes alive; he brings down to the grave, and brings up. |
|
2:6
Yahweh°
killeth,°°
and maketh alive:°°
he bringeth down°°
to the grave,°
and bringeth up.°° |
|
2:7
The Lord makes poor, and makes rich; he brings low, and lifts up. |
|
2:7
Yahweh°
maketh poor,°°
and maketh rich:°°
he bringeth low,°°
and°
lifteth up.°° |
|
2:8
He lifts up the poor from the earth, and raises the needy from the dunghill; to seat him with the princes of the people, and causing them to inherit the throne of glory: |
|
2:8
He raiseth up°°
the poor°
out of the dust,°°
[and] lifteth up°°
the beggar°
from the dunghill,°°
to set°°
[them] among°
princes,°
and to make them inherit°°
the throne°
of glory:°
for°
the pillars°
of the earth°
[are] Yahweh's,°
and he hath set°°
the world°
upon°
them. |
|
2:9
granting his petition to him that prays; and he blesses the years of the righteous, for by strength cannot man prevail. |
|
2:9
He will keep°°
the feet°
of his saints,°
and the wicked°
shall be silent°°
in darkness;°
for°
by strength°
shall no°
man°
prevail.°° |
|
2:10
The Lord will weaken his adversary; the Lord [is] holy. Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, nor let the mighty man boast in his strength, and let not the rich man boast in his wealth; but let him that boasts boast in this, to understand and know the Lord, and to execute judgement and justice in the midst of the earth. The Lord has gone up to the heavens, and has thundered: he will judge the extremities of the earth, and he gives strength to our kings, and will exalt the horn of his Anointed{gr.Christ}. And she left him there before the Lord, |
|
2:10
The adversaries°°
of Yahweh°
shall be broken to pieces;°°
out of heaven°
shall he thunder°°
upon°
them: Yahweh°
shall judge°°
the ends°
of the earth;°
and he shall give°°
strength°
unto his king,°
and exalt°°
the horn°
of his anointed.° |
|
2:11
and departed to Armathaim: and the child ministered in the presence of the Lord before Eli{gr.Heli} the priest. |
|
2:11
And Elkanah°
went°°°
to Ramah°
to°
his house.°
And the child°
did°°
minister°°
unto°
Yahweh°°
before°
Eli°
the priest.° |
|
2:12 ¶
And the sons of Eli{gr.Heli} the priest [were] evil sons, not knowing the Lord. |
|
2:12 ¶
Now the sons°
of Eli°
[were] sons°
of Belial;°
they knew°°
not°°
Yahweh.° |
|
2:13
And the priest's claim from every one of the people that sacrificed [was this]: the servant of the priest came when the flesh was in seething, and a flesh-hook of three teeth [was] in his hand. |
|
2:13
And the priests'°
custom°
with°
the people°
[was, that], when any°
man°
offered°°
sacrifice,°
the priest's°
servant°
came,°°
while the flesh°
was in seething,°°
with a fleshhook°
of three°
teeth°
in his hand;° |
|
2:14
And he struck it into the great caldron, or into the brazen vessel, or into the pot, and whatever came up with the flesh-hook, the priest took for himself: so they did to all Israel that came to sacrifice to the Lord in Shelah{gr.Selom}. |
|
2:14
And he struck°°
[it] into the pan,°
or°
kettle,°
or°
caldron,°
or°
pot;°
all°
that°
the fleshhook°
brought up°°
the priest°
took°°
for himself. So°
they did°°
in Shiloh°
unto all°
the Israelites°
that came°°
thither.° |
|
2:15
And before the fat was burnt for a sweet savour, the servant of the priest would come, and say to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest, and I will by no means take of thee sodden flesh out of the caldron. |
|
2:15
Also°
before°
they burnt°°°
the fat,°
the priest's°
servant°
came,°°
and said°°
to the man°
that sacrificed,°°
Give°°
flesh°
to roast°°
for the priest;°
for he will not°
have°°
sodden°°
flesh°°
of°
thee, but°°
raw.° |
|
2:16
And [if] the man that sacrificed said, First let the fat be burned, as it is fit, and take for thyself of all things which thy soul desires: then he would say, Nay, for thou shalt give it me now; and if not I will take it by force. |
|
2:16
And [if] any man°
said°°
unto°
him, Let them not fail°°
to burn°°
the fat°
presently,°
and [then] take°°
[as much] as°
thy soul°
desireth;°°
then he would answer°°
him, [Nay]; but°
thou shalt give°°
[it me] now:°
and if°
not,°
I will take°°
[it] by force.° |
|
2:17
So the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord, for they set at nought the offering of the Lord. |
|
2:17
Wherefore the sin°
of the young men°
was°
very°
great°°
before°
Yahweh:°
for°
men°°
abhorred°°°
the offering°
of Yahweh.° |
|
2:18 ¶
And Samuel ministered before the Lord, a child girt with a linen ephod. |
|
2:18 ¶
But Samuel°
ministered°°°
before°
Yahweh,°
[being] a child,°
girded°°
with a linen°
ephod.° |
|
2:19
And his mother made him a little doublet, and brought it to him from year to year, in her going up in company with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice. |
|
2:19
Moreover his mother°
made°°
him a little°
coat,°
and brought°°
[it] to him from year°
to year,°°
when she came up°°
with°
her husband°
to offer°°°
the yearly°
sacrifice.° |
|
2:20 ¶
And Eli{gr.Heli} blessed Elkanah{gr.Helcana} and his wife, saying The Lord recompense to thee seed of this woman, in return for the loan which thou hast lent to the Lord: and the man returned to his place. |
|
2:20 ¶
And Eli°
blessed°°°
Elkanah°
and his wife,°
and said,°°
Yahweh°
give°°
thee seed°
of°
this°
woman°
for°
the loan°
which°
is lent°°
to Yahweh.°
And they went°°
unto their own home.° |
|
2:21
And the Lord visited Hannah{gr.Anna}, and she bore yet three sons, and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the Lord. |
|
2:21
And°
Yahweh°
visited°°°
Hannah,°
so that she conceived,°°
and bare°°
three°
sons°
and two°
daughters.°
And the child°
Samuel°
grew°°
before°
Yahweh.° |
|
2:22 ¶
And Eli{gr.Heli} [was] very old, and he heard what his sons did to the children of Israel. |
|
2:22 ¶
Now Eli°
was very°
old,°°
and heard°°°
all°
that°
his sons°
did°°
unto all°
Israel;°
and how°
they lay°°
with°
the women°
that assembled°°
[at] the door°
of the tabernacle°
of the congregation.° |
|
2:23
And he said to them, Why do ye according to this thing, which I hear from the mouth of all the people of the Lord? |
|
2:23
And he said°°
unto them, Why°
do°°
ye such°
things?°
for°
I°
hear°°
of°
your evil°
dealings°
by°°
all°
this°
people.° |
|
2:24
Nay [my] sons, for the report which I hear [is] not good; do not so, for the reports which I hear [are] not good, so that the people do not serve God. |
|
2:24
Nay,°
my sons;°
for°
[it is] no°
good°
report°
that°
I°
hear:°°
ye make Yahweh's°
people°
to transgress.°° |
|
2:25
If a man should at all sin against another, then shall they pray for him to the Lord; but if a man sin against the Lord, who shall intreat for him? But they hearkened not to the voice of their father, because the Lord would by all means destroy them. |
|
2:25
If°
one man°
sin°°
against another,°
the elohim°
shall judge°°
him: but if°
a man°
sin°°
against Yahweh,°
who°
shall intreat°°
for him? Notwithstanding°
they hearkened°°
not unto the voice°
of their father,°
because°
Yahweh°
would°°
slay°°
them. |
|
2:26
And the child Samuel advanced, and was in favour with God and with men. |
|
2:26
And the child°
Samuel°
grew°°
on,°°°
and was in favour°
both°
with°
Yahweh,°
and also°
with°
men.°° |
|
2:27 ¶
And a man of God came to Eli{gr.Heli}, and said, Thus says the Lord, I plainly revealed myself to the house of thy father, when they were servants in Mizraim{gr.Egypt} to the house of Pharaoh{gr.Pharao}. |
|
2:27 ¶
And there came°°
a man°
of Elohim°
unto°
Eli,°
and said°°
unto°
him, Thus°
saith°°
Yahweh,°
Did I plainly°°
appear°°
unto°
the house°
of thy father,°
when they were°
in Egypt°
in Pharaoh's°
house?° |
|
2:28
And I chose the house of thy father out of all the tribes of Israel to minister to me in the priest's office, to go up to my altar, and to burn incense, and to wear an ephod. And I gave to the house of thy father all the offerings by fire of the children of Israel for food. |
|
2:28
And did I choose°°
him out of all°°
the tribes°
of Israel°
[to be] my priest,°
to offer°°
upon°
mine altar,°
to burn°°
incense,°
to wear°°
an ephod°
before°
me? and did I give°°
unto the house°
of thy father°°
all°
the offerings made by fire°
of the children°
of Israel?° |
|
2:29
And wherefore hast thou looked upon my incense-offering and my meat-offering with a shameless eye, and hast honoured thy sons above me, so that they should bless themselves with the first-fruits of every sacrifice of Israel before me? |
|
2:29
Wherefore°
kick°°
ye at my sacrifice°
and at mine offering,°
which°
I have commanded°°
[in my] habitation;°
and honourest°°°
thy sons°
above°
me, to make yourselves fat°°
with the chiefest°°
of all°
the offerings°
of Israel°
my people?° |
|
2:30
Therefore thus says the Lord God of Israel, I said, Thy house and the house of thy father shall pass before me for ever: but now the Lord says, That be far from me; for I will only honour them that honour me, and he that sets me at nought shall be despised. |
|
2:30
Wherefore°
Yahweh°
Elohim°
of Israel°
saith,°°
I said°°
indeed°°
[that] thy house,°
and the house°
of thy father,°
should walk°°
before°
me for°
ever:°°
but now°
Yahweh°
saith,°°
Be it far°
from me;°
for°
them that honour°°
me I will honour,°°
and they that despise°°
me shall be lightly esteemed.°° |
|
2:31
Behold, the days come when I will destroy thy seed and the seed of thy father's house. |
|
2:31
Behold,°
the days°
come,°°
that I will cut off°°°
thine arm,°
and the arm°
of thy father's°
house,°
that there shall not be°°
an old man°
in thine house.° |
|
2:32
And thou shalt not have an old man in my house for ever. |
|
2:32
And thou shalt see°°
an enemy°
[in my] habitation,°
in all°
[the wealth] which°
[Elohim] shall give°°°
Israel:°
and there shall not°
be°
an old man°
in thine house°
for ever.°° |
|
2:33
And [if] I do not destroy a man of thine from my altar, [it shall be] that his eyes may fail and his soul may perish; and every one that remains in thy house shall fall by the sword of men. |
|
2:33
And the man°
of thine, [whom] I shall not°
cut off°°
from°°
mine altar,°
[shall be] to consume°°°
thine eyes,°
and to grieve°°
thine heart:°
and all°
the increase°
of thine house°
shall die°°
in the flower of their age.°° |
|
2:34
And this which shall come upon thy two sons Ophni and Phinehas{gr.Phinees} shall be a sign to thee; in one day they shall both die. |
|
2:34
And this°
[shall be] a sign°
unto thee, that°
shall come°°
upon°
thy two°
sons,°
on°
Hophni°
and Phinehas;°
in one°
day°
they shall die°°
both°
of them. |
|
2:35
And I will raise up to myself a faithful priest, who shall do all that is in my heart and in my soul; and I will build him a sure house, and he shall walk before mine Anointed{gr.Christ} for ever. |
|
2:35
And I will raise me up°°
a faithful°°
priest,°
[that] shall do°°
according to [that] which°
[is] in mine heart°
and in my mind:°
and I will build°°
him a sure°°
house;°
and he shall walk°°
before°
mine anointed°
for ever.°° |
|
2:36
And it shall come to pass that he that survives in thy house, shall come to do obeisance before him for a little piece of silver, saying, Put me into one of thy priest's offices to eat bread. |
|
2:36
And it shall come to pass,°
[that] every one°
that is left°°
in thine house°
shall come°°
[and] crouch°°
to him for a piece°
of silver°
and a morsel°
of bread,°
and shall say,°°
Put°°
me, I pray thee,°
into°
one°
of the priests' offices,°
that I may eat°°
a piece°
of bread.° |
