2 ¹Hana aphembera tenepa: “Ntima wanga usatsandzaya mwa Baba wanga; nyanga yanga iri padzulu mwa Baba wanga. Mulomo wanga usalonga mwacipapo kwa anyamalwa anga, thangwi ndisasekera mu cipulumuso canu.

²“Nkhabe wakucena ninga Baba wathu; nkhabe m'bodzi kusiyapo Imwe; nkhabe mwala ninga Baba wathu.

³“Lekani kulonga pontho mwakudzikuza kakamwe; kudzikuza kukhonde kubuluka m'mulomo mwanu, thangwi Baba wathu ndi Baba wa udziwisi, pontho na Iye mabasa asayezwa.

⁶Baba wathu asapha na asapasa umaso; asatsikisa ku nthumbi mbalamusa pontho.

⁷Baba wathu asatcerengesa na asapfumisa; asacepesa pontho asakweza.

⁸Asalamusa wakutcerenga kubuluka m'pfumbi, asakweza wakusauka kubuluka m'milu ya dotha, toera kuakhazika pabodzi na ana a amambo, mbaapasa mpando wa ulemu. Thangwi mizati ya dziko ndi ya Baba wathu, pontho padzulu pawo Iye aikha dziko.

⁹“Iye asangarira miyendo ya anyakukhulupirika ace, mbwenye akuipa asamatiswa mu cidima; thangwi nkhabe munthu anakunda na mphambvu.

¹⁰Ale anamenyana na Baba wathu anadzaswiwa; Iye anadzabuluma kuna iwo kubulukira kudzulu. Baba wathu anadzatonga magumisiro a dziko; anadzapasa mphambvu kwa mambo wace, mbakweza nyanga ya nzodzwa wace.”

¹¹Na tenepo Elkana aenda kunyumba kwace ku Rama, mbwenye mwana atumikira Baba wathu pamaso pa Eli nyantsembe.

Tenepa ndi mukhacitira iwo Aizarayeli onsene akhabwera ku Xilo. ¹⁵Ngakhale mafuta mbadzati kupiswa, ntumiki wa nyantsembe akhabwera mbapanga ule akhapereka ntsembe tenepa: “Pereka nyama yakuotca toera nyantsembe—iye nkhabe kutawira nyama yakufudzika, mbwenye yakubisi basi.”

¹⁶Mamuna angalonga tenepa: “Pisa mafuta pakutoma, buluka penepo kwata pinafuna iwe,” iye akhatawira tenepa: “Nkhabe, pereka cincino, peno ndinaikwata mwakukakamiza.” ¹⁷Madawo a aphale anewa akhali makulu kakamwe pamaso pa Baba wathu, thangwi iwo akhanyoza ntsembe ya Baba wathu. ¹⁸Mbwenye Samwele akhatumikira pamaso pa Baba wathu, mwana wakubvala efodi ya lineni. ^b b v18 Efodi ikhali nguwo yapadera ya lineni, ikhabvala anyantsembe a Aizarayeli mu ndzidzi ukhatumikira iwo pa mbuto yakucena. ¹⁹Caka na caka mai wace akhamusonkhera mwinjiro ung'ono, mbaubweresa pakwenda iye pabodzi na mamuna wace toera kupereka ntsembe ya caka na caka. ²⁰Eli akhapasa nkhombo Elkana na nkazi wace tenepa: “Baba wathu akupaseni ana kubulukira kwa nkazi uyu m'mbuto mwa ule adaphemba iye mbampereka kuna Baba wathu.” Buluka penepo iwo aenda kunyumba kwawo. ²¹Baba wathu aonera Hana; iye akhala na pathupi mbabala ana amuna atatu na ana akazi awiri. Mwana Samwele akula pamaso pa Baba wathu.

²²Eli akhali wakalamba kakamwe. Iye akhabva pyonsene pikhacita ana ace kwa Aizarayeli onsene, na kuti iwo akhagona na akazi akhatumikira pa nsuwo wa tenti yakugumanikana. ²³Iye aabvundza tenepa: “Thangwi yanji musacita pyenepi? Ine ndisabva pyakuipa pyanu kubulukira kwa anthu awa onsene. ²⁴Nkhabe, ana anga; mphangwa zinabva ine si zadidi tayu—zisamwazika pakati pa mbumba ya Baba wathu. ²⁵Munthu angadawira ndzace, Baba wathu anakwanisa kumpembera. Mbwenye munthu angadawira Baba wathu, mbani anakwanisa kumpembera nyakudawa? Ngakhale tenepo iwo nee abvera fala ya baba wawo, thangwi Baba wathu akhafuna kuapha.”

²⁶Mwana Samwele apitiriza kukula m'thupi, mbakomeresa Baba wathu na anthu.

²⁸“Ine ndansankhula iye kubulukira mu madzinza onsene a Izarayeli toera akhale nyantsembe wanga—toera kukwira pa guwa yanga ya ntsembe, kupisa ubani, na kubvala efodi pamaso panga. Ine ndapasa nyumba ya baba wako ntsembe zonsene za moto za Aizarayeli. ²⁹Thangwi yanji usamenya ntsembe yanga na muoni wanga udalamula Ine toera upiwe pa mbuto yakukhala kwanga, mbalemedza ana ako kupita Ine, mbunenepa na pyakudidi kakamwe pya ntsembe zonsene za mbumba yanga Izarayeli?’

³⁰“Na tenepo Baba wathu wa Izarayeli asalonga tenepa: ‘Ine ndalonga kuti nyumba yako na nyumba ya baba wako mbidafamba pamaso panga kwenda na kwenda.’ Mbwenye cincino Baba wathu asalonga tenepa: ‘Nkhabe tayu! Ine ndisalemedza ale anandilemedza Ine; ale anandinyoza Ine ndinadzaapwaza.’ ³¹Ntsiku zinabwera zakuti ndinadzagwanda mphambvu yako na mphambvu ya nyumba ya baba wako, toera nkhabe m'bodzi wa panyumba pako anafika pa ukalamba. ³²Iwe unadzaona nyatwa pa mbuto yakukhala kwanga, maseze pyadidi pyonsene pinacitwa kwa Izarayeli; nkhabe pontho munthu wakalamba panyumba pako kwenda na kwenda. ³³Ngakhale tenepo Ine nkhabe kudzagwanda onsene a iwe pa guwa yanga ya ntsembe; m'bodzi anadzasiiwa toera kucitisa maso ako kulira na kutsukwalisa ntima wako, mbwenye mbeu yako yonsene inadzafa mu ndzidzi wa uphale wawo. ³⁴Cidzindikiro cako ndi ici: ana ako awiri, Hofeni na Finiyasi, anadzafa onsene awiri pa ntsiku ibodzi ene. ³⁵Ine ndinadzalamusira Ekha nyantsembe wakukhulupirika anacita pinafuna ntima wanga na manyerezero anga. Ine ndinadzammangira nyumba yakukhonda kumala; iye anadzafamba pamaso pa nzodzwa wanga kwenda na kwenda. ^c c v35 Nyantsembe wakukhulupirika adapikira Baba wathu asalozera kutali kupita Samwele na Zadhoki, mbafikira kuna Yezu, Nyantsembe Wankulu wakulungama, anacita ndzidzi onsene pinakhala mu ntima wa Baba. ³⁶Munthu onsene anadzasala panyumba pako anadzabwera, mbagodamira iye toera kuphemba parata na nkate, mbalonga tenepa: ‘Ndiphatanizeni pa basa inango ya uphemberi, toera ndikwanise kudya cipande ca nkate.’”
