1 ¹Hariho umuntu w’i Ramatayimu-Sofimu mu meso y’i Efurayimu, yitwa Elikana mwene Yerohamu, mwene Elihu, mwene Tohu, mwene Sufu, Umunyefurayimu. ²Yari afise abagore babiri, Hana na Penina. Penina yari afise abana, mugabo Hana nta mwana yari afise. ³Umwaka ku wundi yava mu gisagara ciwe akaduga kugira asenge no kushikana ibimazi kuri Data w’ingabo z’ijuru i Shilo, aho abahungu babiri ba Eli, Hofuni na Finehasi, bari abaherezi ba Data wa twese. ⁴Igihe Elikana yashikana igimazi, yaha imigabane umugore wiwe Penina n’abahungu bose n’abakobwa biwe. ⁵Mugabo Hana yamuha umugabane ukubana kabiri, kuko yamukunda, naho Data wa twese yari yarapfundikiye igitereko ciwe. ⁶Kubera ko Data wa twese yari yarapfundikiye igitereko ciwe, uwo mu bakeba biwe yaguma amucokora bikaze kugira ngo amubabaze. ⁷Umwaka ku wundi, igihe cose Hana yaduga akaja mu nzu ya Data wa twese, Penina yaramucokora, ku buryo yararira ntiyashaka no gufungura. ⁸Umugabo wiwe Elikana aramubaza ati: “Hana, kubera iki urira? Kubera iki wanka gufungura? Kubera iki umutima wawe ubabaye? Mbega sindi kuri wewe ikiruta abahungu cumi?”

⁹Bamaze gufungura no kunywa i Shilo, Hana arahaguruka. Eli umuherezi yari yicaye ku ntebe iri ku rukingi rw’urugi rw’urusengero rwa Data wa twese. ¹⁰Afise umubabaro ukomeye, asenga Data wa twese, ararira cane. ¹¹Aragira indagano ati: “Data w’ingabo z’ijuru, niwaba ubonye umubabaro w’umusukukazi wawe, unyibuke, ntiwibagire umusukukazi wawe, umuhe umuhungu, nzomuha Data wa twese ubugingo bwiwe bwose, kandi nta rwembe ruzokwegera ku mutwe wiwe.” ^a a v11 Kureka umwana ntakemwe umushatsi cari ikimenyetso c’inyuma c’indagano ya Umunaziri — ukwiyegurira Imana ubuzima bwose (raba Guharura 6).

¹²Uko yaguma asenga imbere ya Data wa twese, Eli yaritegereza akanwa kiwe. ¹³Hana yasenga mu mutima wiwe; iminwa yiwe yanyeganyega mugabo ijwi ntiryumvikana. Ni co catumye Eli yiyumvira yuko yaborewe. ¹⁴Aramubwira ati: “Uzomara igihe kingana iki uborewe? Niwikureko umuvinyu wawe.”

¹⁵Hana aramwishura ati: “Oya, mukama wanje. Ndi umugore afise umubabaro ukomeye mu mutima. Sinanyoye umuvinyu canke ikinyobwa gikomeye, mugabo nasutse umutima wanje imbere ya Data wa twese. ¹⁶Ntufate umusukukazi wawe nk’umugore w’agahomerabunwa; mba nsenga hano kubera umubabaro n’intuntu vyinshi.”

¹⁷Eli aramwishura ati: “Genda amahoro, kandi Data wa Isirayeli aguhe ivyo wamusavye.”

¹⁸Aravuga ati: “Umusukukazi wawe aronke ubutoni mu maso yawe.” Nuko umugore agenda inzira yiwe, arafungura, kandi mu maso hiwe hari hatakibabaye.

¹⁹Bukeye mu gitondo cane barahaguruka, basenga imbere ya Data wa twese, maze basubira iwabo i Rama. Elikana amenyana na Hana umugore wiwe, kandi Data wa twese aramwibuka.

²⁰Haciye igihe Hana aratwara inda, avyara umuhungu. Amwita izina Samweli, avuga ati: “Kuko namusavye Data wa twese.” ^b b v20 Izina Samweli risa n’ijambo ry’Igiheburayo risobanura “uwasavywe ku Mana” — Hana amwise izina ry’uwo muhungu nyene yari yaringinze Data wa twese.

²¹Igihe Elikana n’abo mu rugo rwiwe bose baduga kugira ngo bashikane igimazi co mu mwaka kuri Data wa twese no gushitsa indagano yiwe, ²²Hana ntiyagiye. Abwira umugabo wiwe ati: “Umwana niyaba acutse, nzomuzana kugira ngo yiyereke imbere ya Data wa twese, kandi azohaguma ibihe bidashira.”

²³Umugabo wiwe Elikana aravuga ati: “Kora ivyo ubona vyiza. Guma gushika aho uzoba umucuye; Data wa twese gusa ashitse ijambo ryiwe.” Nuko Hana aguma yonsa umuhungu wiwe gushika aho yamucucuza.

²⁴Amaze kumucutsa, atwarana umwana, ari kumwe n’impfizi y’imyaka itatu, ifu ingana n’ibiro mirongo ibiri na bitanu, n’akabindi k’umuvinyu, maze amuzana mu nzu ya Data wa twese i Shilo; kandi umwana yari akiri muto. ²⁵Babaga impfizi, bazana umwana kwa Eli. ²⁶Hana aravuga ati: “Ewe mukama wanje, nk’uko uriho koko, mukama wanje, ni jewe mugore yahagaze hano iruhande yawe, nsenga Data wa twese. ²⁷Nasengeye uyu mwana, kandi Data wa twese yampaye ivyo namusavye. ²⁸Ni co gituma ndamuha Data wa twese. Ubuzima bwiwe bwose ahawe we.” Nuko aho asenga Data wa twese.
