1 Samuel 1

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	Biblija Hrvatski
1 There was a certain man from Ramah of Zophim, on Mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.	1 Bio jedan čovjek iz Ramatajima, Sufovac iz Efrajimove gore, po imenu Elkana, sin Jerohama, sina Elihua, sina Tohua, sina Sufova, Efrajimljanin.
2 And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the second was Peninnah. And Peninnah had sons. But Hannah did not have children.	2 Imao je dvije žene: ime jednoj bijaše Ana, a drugoj bijaše ime Penina. Penina je imala djece, a Ana ih nije imala.
3 And this man went up from his city, on the established days, so that he might adore and sacrifice to the Lord of hosts at Shiloh. Now the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests of the Lord, were in that place.	3 Taj je čovjek svake godine uzlazio iz svoga grada da se pokloni i prinese žrtvu Jahvi Sebaotu u Šilu. Ondje su bila dva sina Elijeva, Hofni i Pinhas, kao svećenici Jahvini.
4 Then the day arrived, and Elkanah immolated. And he gave portions to his wife Peninnah, and to all her sons and daughters.	4 Jednoga dana Elkana prinese žrtvu. On je obično svojoj ženi Penini i svim njezinim sinovima i kćerima davao više žrtvenih dijelova,
5 But to Hannah he gave one portion with sorrow. For he loved Hannah, but the Lord had closed her womb.	5 a Ani je davao samo jedan dio, premda je više ljubio Anu, ali Jahve joj ne bijaše dao od srca poroda.
6 And her rival afflicted her and vehemently distressed her, to a great extent, for she rebuked her that the Lord had closed her womb.	6 Uz to joj je suparnica njezina zanovijetala da je ponizi što joj Jahve ne bijaše dao od srca poroda.
7 And she did so every year, when the time returned for them to ascend to the temple of the Lord. And she provoked her in this way. And so, she wept and did not take food.	7 Tako je bivalo svake godine kad god bi polazili u dom Jahvin: Penina je zanovijetala Ani. Ana je stoga plakala i nije htjela jesti.
8 Therefore, her husband Elkanah said to her: “Hannah, why are you weeping? And why do you not eat? And for what reason do you afflict your heart? Am I not better to you than ten sons?”	8 Tada joj reče Elkana, njezin muž: »Zašto plačeš, Ana? I zašto ne jedeš? Zašto ti je srce rastuženo? Nisam li ti ja vredniji nego deset sinova?«
9 And so, after she ate and drank at Shiloh, Hannah rose up. And Eli, the priest, was sitting on the seat before the door of the temple of the Lord.	9 Ali Ana ustade, pošto su jeli i pili u sobi, i stupi pred Jahvu – a svećenik Eli sjeđaše na stolici na pragu svetišta Jahvina.
10 And since Hannah was bitter in soul, she prayed to the Lord, weeping greatly.	10 I ojađena u duši pomoli se Ana Jahvi, plačući gorko.
11 And she made a vow, saying, “O Lord of hosts, if, in looking with favor, you will see the affliction of your servant and will remember me, and will not forget your handmaid, and if you will give to your servant a male child, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall pass over his head.”	11 I zavjetova se ovako: »Jahve Sebaote! Ako pogledaš na nevolju službenice svoje i spomeneš se mene i ne zaboraviš službenice svoje te dadeš službenici svojoj muško čedo, ja ću ga darovati Jahvi za sve dane njegova života i britva neće prijeći preko glave njegove.«
12 Then it happened that, while she multiplied prayers before the Lord, Eli observed her mouth.	12 Tako se ona dugo molila pred Jahvom, a Eli je motrio usta njezina.
13 For Hannah was speaking in her heart, and only her lips moved, and her voice was barely heard. Therefore, Eli considered her to be drunk,	13 Ana govoraše u srcu; samo se usne njezine micahu, a glas joj se nije čuo. Zato Eli pomisli da je pijana.
14 and so he said to her: “How long will you be inebriated? You should take only a little wine, but instead you are drenched.”	14 I reče joj Eli: »Dokle ćeš biti pijana? Otrijezni se od vina što je u tebi!«
15 Responding, Hannah said: “By no means, my lord. For I am an exceedingly unhappy woman, and I drank neither wine, nor anything that can inebriate. Instead, I have poured out my soul in the sight of the Lord.	15 Ali Ana odgovori i reče: »Nisam pijana, gospodaru, nego sam velika nesretnica. Nisam pila ni vina ni opojna pića, nego izlijevam dušu svoju pred Jahvom.
16 You should not repute your handmaid as one of the daughters of Belial. For I have been speaking from the abundance of my sorrow and grief, even until now.”	16 Ne sudi službenicu svoju kao ženu nevaljalu, jer sam od preteške tuge i žalosti tako dugo molila.«
17 Then Eli said to her: “Go in peace. And may the God of Israel grant to you your petition, which you have begged of him.”	17 Tada joj Eli odgovori ovako: »Pođi u miru! A Bog Izraelov neka ti ispuni molitvu kojom si ga molila.«
18 And she said, “I wish that your handmaid may find grace in your eyes.” And the woman went on her way, and she ate, and her countenance was no longer changed for the worse.	18 A ona reče: »Neka službenica tvoja nađe milost u očima tvojim!« I žena ode svojim putem: jela je i lice joj nije više bilo tužno kao i prije.
19 And they rose up in the morning, and they worshipped before the Lord. And they returned and arrived at their own house at Ramah. Then Elkanah knew his wife Hannah. And the Lord remembered her.	19 Sutradan uraniše i pokloniše se Jahvi, a onda se vratiše i dođoše svojoj kući u Ramu. Elkana pozna Anu, ženu svoju, a Jahve je se spomenu.
20 And it happened that, in the course of days, Hannah conceived and bore a son. And she called his name Samuel, because she had requested him from the Lord.	20 Ana zatrudnje i, kad bî vrijeme, rodi sina koga nazva imenom Samuel, »jer sam ga«, reče, »izmolila od Jahve«.
21 Now her husband Elkanah ascended with his entire house, so that he might immolate to the Lord a solemn sacrifice, with his vow.	21 Poslije godinu dana uziđe njezin muž Elkana sa svim domom svojim da prinese Jahvi godišnju žrtvu i da izvrši zavjet.
22 But Hannah did not go up. For she said to her husband, “I will not go, until the infant has been weaned, and until I may lead him, so that he may appear before the sight of the Lord, and may remain always there.”	22 Ali Ana ne pođe s njim jer reče svome mužu: »Neću poći dok se dijete ne odbije od prsâ, a onda ću ga odvesti da se pokaže pred Jahvom i da ostane ondje zauvijek.«
23 And her husband Elkanah said to her: “Do what seems good to you, and stay until you wean him. And I pray that the Lord may fulfill his word.” Therefore, the woman remained at home, and she breastfed her son, until she withdrew him from milk.	23 I odgovori joj Elkana, njezin muž: »Čini kako misliš da je dobro; ostani dok ga ne odbiješ od prsâ; samo neka ti Jahve ispuni tvoju želju!« I žena osta kod kuće dojeći sina svoga dok ga nije odbila od prsâ.
24 And after she had weaned him, she brought him with her, along with three calves, and three measures of flour, and a small bottle of wine, and she led him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh. But the boy was still a young child.	24 Čim ga je odbila od prsâ, povede ga sa sobom uzevši uz to trogodišnjeg junca, efu brašna i mijeh vina; i uvede ga u dom Jahvin u Šilu. A dječak je bio još vrlo mlad.
25 And they immolated a calf, and they presented the boy to Eli.	25 Tada zaklaše junca, a majka dječakova pristupi k Eliju.
26 And Hannah said: “I beg you, my lord, as your soul lives, my lord: I am that woman, who stood before you here, praying to the Lord.	26 I reče Ana: »Dopusti, gospodaru! Tako ti života tvoga, gospodaru, ja sam ona žena koja je stajala ovdje kraj tebe moleći se Jahvi.
27 I prayed for this child, and the Lord granted to me my petition, which I asked of him.	27 Molila sam za ovo dijete, i Jahve mi je uslišio prošnju kojom sam ga prosila.
28 Because of this, I have also lent him to the Lord, for all the days when he shall be lent to the Lord.” And they adored the Lord in that place. And Hannah prayed, and she said:	28 Zato i ja njega ustupam Jahvi za sve dane njegova života: ta isprošen je od Jahve.« I pokloniše se ondje Jahvi.
