1:1 Efrayim daglik bölgesindeki Ramatayim Kasabasinda yasayan, Efrayim oymaginin Suf boyundan Yeroham oglu Elihu oglu Tohu oglu Suf oglu Elkana adinda bir adam vardi.
1:1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaimzophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite:
1:2 Elkananin Hanna ve Peninna adinda iki karisi vardi. Peninnanin çocuklari oldugu halde, Hannanin çocugu olmuyordu.
1:2 And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
1:3 Elkana Her Seye Egemen RABbe tapinip kurban sunmak üzere her yil kendi kentinden Siloya giderdi. Elinin RABbin kâhinleri olan Hofni ve Pinehas adindaki iki oglu da oradaydi.
1:3 And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there.
1:4 Elkana kurban sundugu gün karisi Peninnaya ve ogullariyla kizlarina etten birer pay verirken,
1:4 And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:
1:5 Hannaya iki pay verirdi. Çünkü RAB Hannanin rahmini kapamasina karsin, Elkana onu severdi.
1:5 But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb.
1:6 Ama RAB Hannanin rahmini kapadigindan, kumasi Peninna Hannayi öfkelendirmek için ona sürekli satasirdi.
1:6 And her adversary also provoked her sore, in order to make her fret, because the LORD had shut up her womb.
1:7 Bu yillarca böyle sürdü. Hanna RABbin Tapinagina her gittiginde kumasi ona satasirdi. Böylece Hanna aglar, yemek yemezdi.
1:7 And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
1:8 Kocasi Elkana, Hanna, neden agliyorsun, neden yemek yemiyorsun? derdi, Neden bu kadar üzgünsün? Ben senin için on oguldan daha iyi degil miyim?
1:8 Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weep you? and why eat you not? and why is your heart grieved? am not I better to you than ten sons?
1:9 Bir gün onlar Siloda yiyip içtikten sonra, Hanna kalkti. Kâhin Eli RABbin Tapinaginin kapi sövesi yanindaki sandalyede oturuyordu.
1:9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the LORD.
1:10 Hanna, gönlü buruk, aci aci aglayarak RABbe yakardi
1:10 And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore.
1:11 ve su adagi adadi: Ey Her Seye Egemen RAB, kulunun üzüntüsüne gerçekten bakip beni animsar, kulunu unutmayip bana bir erkek çocuk verirsen, yasami boyunca onu sana adayacagim. Onun basina hiç ustura degmeyecek. kisinin belirtisiydi (bkz. Say.6:5).
1:11 And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of yours handmaid, and remember me, and not forget yours handmaid, but will give unto yours handmaid a male child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.
1:12 Hanna RABbe yakarisini sürdürürken, Eli onun dudaklarini gözetliyordu.
1:12 And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli marked her mouth.
1:13 Hanna içinden yakariyor, yalniz dudaklari kimildiyor, sesi duyulmuyordu. Bu yüzden Eli, Hannayi sarhos sanarak,
1:13 Now Hannah, she spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.
1:14 Sarhoslugunu ne zamana dek sürdüreceksin? Artik sarabi birak dedi.
1:14 And Eli said unto her, How long will you be drunken? put away your wine from you.
1:15 Hanna, Ah, öyle degil efendim! diye yanitladi, Ben yüregi acilarla dolu bir kadinim. Ne sarap içtim, ne de baska bir içki. Sadece yüregimi RABbe döküyordum.
1:15 And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.
1:16 Kulunu kötü bir kadin sanma. Yakarisimi simdiye dek sürdürmemin nedeni çok kaygili, üzüntülü olmamdir.
1:16 Count not yours handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken until now.
1:17 Eli, Öyleyse esenlikle git dedi, Israilin Tanrisi dilegini yerine getirsin.
1:17 Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant you your petition that you have asked of him.
1:18 Hanna, Senin gözünde lütuf bulayim deyip yoluna gitti. Sonra yemek yedi. Artik üzgün degildi.
1:18 And she said, Let yours handmaid find grace in your sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.
1:19 Ertesi sabah erkenden kalkip RABbe tapindilar. Ondan sonra Ramadaki evlerine döndüler. Elkana karisi Hannayla birlesti ve RAB Hannayi animsadi.
1:19 And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.
1:20 Zamani gelince Hanna gebe kaldi ve bir erkek çocuk dogurdu. Onu RABden diledim diyerek adini Samuel koydu.
1:20 Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the LORD.
1:21 Elkana RABbe yillik kurbanini ve adagini sunmak üzere ev halkiyla birlikte Siloya gitti.
1:21 And the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer unto the LORD the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.
1:22 Ama Hanna gitmedi. Kocasina, Çocuk sütten kesildikten sonra onu RABbin hizmetinde bulunmak üzere götürecegim. Yasami boyunca orada kalacak dedi.
1:22 But Hannah went not up; for she said unto her husband, I will not go up until the child be weaned, and then I will bring him, that he may appear before the LORD, and there abide for ever.
1:23 Kocasi Elkana, Nasil istersen öyle yap diye karsilik verdi, Çocuk sütten kesilinceye dek burada kal. RAB sözünü yerine getirsin. Böylece Hanna oglu sütten kesilinceye dek evde kalip onu emzirdi.
1:23 And Elkanah her husband said unto her, Do what seems you good; tarry until you have weaned him; only the LORD establish his word. So the woman abode, and gave her son suck until she weaned him.
1:24 Küçük çocuk sütten kesildikten sonra Hanna üç yasinda bir boga, bir efafç un ve bir tulum sarap alarak onu kendisiyle birlikte RABbin Silodaki tapinagina götürdü.
1:24 And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of the LORD in Shiloh: and the child was young.
1:25 Bogayi kestikten sonra çocugu Eliye getirdiler.
1:25 And they slew a bullock, and brought the child to Eli.
1:26 Hanna, Ey efendim, yasamin hakki için derim ki, burada yaninda durup RABbe yakaran kadinim ben dedi,
1:26 And she said, Oh my lord, as your soul lives, my lord, I am the woman that stood by you here, praying unto the LORD.
1:27 Bu çocuk için yakarmistim; RAB dilegimi yerine getirdi.
1:27 For this child I prayed; and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him:
1:28 Ben de onu RAB'be adiyorum. Yasami boyunca RAB'be adanmis kalacaktir. Sonra çocuk orada RAB'be tapindi. Masoretik metin Üç boga.
1:28 Therefore also I have lent him to the LORD; as long as he lives he shall be lent to the LORD. And he worshipped the LORD there.
2:1 Hanna söyle dua etti: Yüregim RABde buldugum sevinçle cosuyor; Gücümü yükselten RABdir. Düsmanlarimin karsisinda övünüyor, Kurtarisinla seviniyorum!
2:1 And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoices in the LORD, mine horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in your salvation.
2:2 Kutsallikta RABbin benzeri yok, Evet, senin gibisi yok, ya RAB! Tanrimiz gibi dayanak yok.
2:2 There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside you: neither is there any rock like our God.
2:3 Artik büyük konusmayin, Agzinizdan küstahça sözler çikmasin. Çünkü RAB her seyi bilen Tanridir; Odur davranislari tartan.
2:3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
2:4 Güçlülerin yaylari kirilir; Güçsüzlerse güçle donatilir.
2:4 The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
2:5 Toklar yiyecek ugruna gündelikçi olur, Açlar doyurulur. Kisir kadin yedi çocuk dogururken, Çok çocuklu kadin kimsesiz kalir.
2:5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren has born seven; and she that has many children is waxed feeble.
2:6 RAB öldürür de diriltir de, Ölüler diyarina indirir ve çikarir.
2:6 The LORD kills, and makes alive: he brings down to the grave, and brings up.
2:7 O kimini yoksul, kimini varsil kilar; Kimini alçaltir, kimini yükseltir.
2:7 The LORD makes poor, and makes rich: he brings low, and lifts up.
2:8 Düskünü yerden kaldirir, Yoksulu çöplükten çikarir; Soylularla oturtsun Ve kendilerine onur tahtini miras olarak bagislasin diye. Çünkü yeryüzünün temelleri RABbindir, O dünyayi onlarin üzerine kurmustur.
2:8 He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts 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 the LORD's, and he has set the world upon them.
2:9 RAB sadik kullarinin adimlarini korur, Ama kötüler karanlikta susturulur. Çünkü güçle zafere ulasamaz insan.
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 RABbe karsi gelenler paramparça olacak, RAB onlara karsi gökleri gürletecek, Bütün dünyayi yargilayacak, Kralini güçle donatacak, Meshettigi kralin gücünü yükseltecek.
2:10 The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
2:11 Sonra Elkana Ramaya, evine döndü. Küçük Samuel ise Kâhin Elinin gözetiminde RABbin hizmetinde kaldi.
2:11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest.
2:12 Elinin ogullari degersiz kisilerdi. RABbi ve kâhinlerin halkla ilgili kurallarini önemsemiyorlardi. Biri sundugu kurbanin etini haslarken, kâhinin hizmetkâri elinde üç disli büyük bir çatalla gelir,
2:12 Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the LORD.
2:13 And the priest's custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fork of three teeth in his hand;
2:14 çatali kap, tencere, tava ya da kazana daldirirdi. Çatalla çikarilan her sey kâhin için ayirilirdi. Siloya gelen Israillilerin hepsine böyle davranirlardi.
2:14 And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fork brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.
2:15 Üstelik kurbanin yaglari yakilmadan önce, kâhinin hizmetkâri gelip kurban sunan adama, Kâhine kizartmalik et ver. Senden haslanmis et degil, çig et alacak derdi.
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 you, but raw.
2:16 Kurban sunan, Önce hayvanin yaglari yakilmali, sonra diledigin kadar al diyecek olsa, hizmetkâr, Hayir, simdi vereceksin, yoksa zorla alirim diye karsilik verirdi.
2:16 And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as your soul desires; then he would answer him, Nay; but you shall give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
2:17 Gençlerin RABbe karsi isledikleri günah çok büyüktü; çünkü RABbe sunulan sunulari küçümsüyorlardi.
2:17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.
2:18 Bu arada genç Samuel, keten efod giymis, RABbin önünde hizmet ediyordu.
2:18 But Samuel ministered before the LORD, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
2:19 Yillik kurbani sunmak için annesi her yil kocasiyla birlikte oraya gider, diktigi cüppeyi ogluna getirirdi.
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 Kâhin Eli de, Elkana ile karisina iyi dilekte bulunarak, Diledigi ve RABbe adadigi çocugun yerine RAB sana bu kadindan baska çocuklar versin derdi. Bundan sonra evlerine dönerlerdi.
2:20 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give you seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD. And they went unto their own home.
2:21 RABbin lütfuna eren Hanna gebe kalip üç erkek, iki kiz daha dogurdu. Küçük Samuel ise RABbin hizmetinde büyüdü.
2:21 And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.
2:22 Eli artik çok yaslanmisti. Ogullarinin Israillilere bütün yaptiklarini, Bulusma Çadirinin girisinde görevli kadinlarla düsüp kalktiklarini duymustu.
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 Onlara, Neden böyle seyler yapiyorsunuz? dedi, Yaptiginiz kötülükleri herkesten isitiyorum.
2:23 And he said unto them, Why do all of you such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
2:24 Olmaz bu, ogullarim! RABbin halki arasinda yayildigini duydugum haber iyi degil.
2:24 Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: all of you make the LORD's people to transgress.
2:25 Insan insana karsi günah islerse, Tanri onun için aracilik yapar. Ama RABbe karsi günah isleyeni kim savunacak? Ne var ki, onlar babalarinin sözünü dinlemediler. Çünkü RAB onlari öldürmek istiyordu.
2:25 If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall implore for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the LORD would slay them.
2:26 Bu arada giderek büyüyen genç Samuel RABbin de halkin da begenisini kazanmaktaydi.
2:26 And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.
2:27 O siralarda bir Tanri adami Eliye gelip söyle dedi: RAB diyor ki, Atan ve soyu Misirda firavunun halkina kölelik ederken kendimi onlara açikça göstermedim mi?
2:27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus says the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of your father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?
2:28 Sunagima çikmasi, buhur yakip önümde efod giymesi için bütün Israil oymaklari arasindan yalniz atani kendime kâhin seçtim. Üstelik Israillilerin yakilan bütün sunularini da atanin soyuna verdim.
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 your father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
2:29 Öyleyse neden konutum için buyurdugum kurbani ve sunuyu küçümsüyorsunuz? Halkim Israilin sundugu bütün sunularin en iyi kisimlariyla kendinizi semirterek neden ogullarini benden daha çok sayiyorsun?
2:29 Wherefore kick all of you at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honour your sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
2:30 Bu nedenle Israilin Tanrisi RAB söyle diyor: Gerçekten, ailen ve atanin soyu sonsuza dek bana hizmet edecekler demistim. Ama simdi RAB söyle buyuruyor: Bu benden uzak olsun! Beni onurlandirani ben de onurlandiririm. Ama beni saymayan küçük düsürülecek.
2:30 Wherefore the LORD God of Israel says, I said indeed that your house, and the house of your father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD says, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
2:31 Soyundan hiç kimsenin yaslanacak kadar yasamamasi için senin ve atanin soyunun gücünü kiracagim günler yaklasiyor.
2:31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off yours arm, and the arm of your father's house, that there shall not be an old man in yours house.
2:32 Israile yapilacak bütün iyilige karsin, sen konutumda sikinti göreceksin. Artik soyundan hiç kimse yaslanacak kadar yasamayacak.
2:32 And you shall see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in yours house for ever.
2:33 Sunagimdan bütün soyunu yok edecegim, yalniz bir kisiyi esirgeyecegim. Gözleri aglamaktan kör olacak, yüregi yanacak. Ama soyundan gelenlerin hepsi kiliçla ölecekler.
2:33 And the man of yours, whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume yours eyes, and to grieve yours heart: and all the increase of yours house shall die in the flower of their age.
2:34 Iki oglun Hofni ile Pinehasin basina gelecek olay senin için bir belirti olacak: Ikisi de ayni gün ölecek.
2:34 And this shall be a sign unto you, that shall come upon your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.
2:35 Isteklerimi ve amaçlarimi yerine getirecek güvenilir bir kâhin çikaracagim kendime. Onun soyunu sürdürecegim; o da meshettigim kisinin önünde sürekli hizmet edecek.
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 Ailenden sag kalan herkes bir parça gümüs ve bir somun ekmek için gelip ona boyun egecek ve, Ne olur, karin tokluguna beni herhangi bir kâhinlik görevine ata! diye yalvaracak. edecegim, yalniz bir kisiyi esirgeyecegim. Gözleri aglamaktan kör olacak, yüregi yanacak, Masoretik metin Gözlerini körlestirmek ve sana sikinti vermek için sunagimdan bütün soyunu yok etmeyecegim, yalniz birini esirgeyecegim. olarak.
2:36 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in yours house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray you, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
3:1 Genç Samuel Elinin yönetimi altinda RABbe hizmet ediyordu. O günlerde RABbin sözü seyrek geliyordu; görümler de azalmisti.
3:1 And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision.
3:2 Bir gece Eli yataginda uyuyordu. Gözleri öyle zayiflamisti ki, güçlükle görebiliyordu.
3:2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see;
3:3 Samuel ise RABbin Tapinaginda, Tanrinin Sandiginin bulundugu yerde uyuyordu. Tanrinin kandili daha sönmemisti.
3:3 And before the lamp of God went out in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was, and Samuel was laid down to sleep;
3:4 RAB Samuele seslendi. Samuel, Buradayim diye karsilik verdi.
3:4 That the LORD called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I.
3:5 Ardindan Eliye kosup, Beni çagirdin, iste buradayim dedi. Ama Eli, Ben çagirmadim, dön yat diye karsilik verdi. Samuel de dönüp yatti.
3:5 And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for you called me. And he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down.
3:6 RAB yine, Samuel! diye seslendi. Samuel kalkip Eliye gitti ve, Iste, buradayim, beni çagirdin dedi. Eli, Çagirmadim, oglum diye karsilik verdi, Dön yat.
3:6 And the LORD called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for you did call me. And he answered, I called not, my son; lie down again.
3:7 Samuel RABbi daha tanimiyordu; RABbin sözü henüz ona açiklanmamisti.
3:7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him.
3:8 RAB yine üçüncü kez Samuele seslendi. Samuel kalkip Eliye gitti. Iste buradayim, beni çagirdin dedi. O zaman Eli genç Samuele RABbin seslendigini anladi.
3:8 And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for you did call me. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.
3:9 Bunun üzerine Samuele, Git yat dedi, Sana yine seslenirse, Konus, ya RAB, kulun dinliyor dersin. Samuel gidip yerine yatti.
3:9 Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call you, that you shall say, Speak, LORD; for your servant hears. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
3:10 RAB gelip orada durdu ve önceki gibi, Samuel, Samuel! diye seslendi. Samuel, Konus, kulun dinliyor diye yanitladi.
3:10 And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for your servant hears.
3:11 RAB Samuele söyle dedi: Ben Israilde her duyani saskina çevirecek bir sey yapmak üzereyim.
3:11 And the LORD said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that hears it shall tingle.
3:12 O gün Elinin ailesine karsi söyledigim her seyi bastan sona dek yerine getirecegim.
3:12 In that day I will perform against Eli all things which I have spoken concerning his house: when I begin, I will also make an end.
3:13 Çünkü farkinda oldugu günahtan ötürü ailesini sonsuza dek yargilayacagimi Eliye bildirdim. Ogullari Tanriya saygisizlik ettiler. Eli de onlara engel olmadi.
3:13 For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knows; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not.
3:14 Bu nedenle, Elinin ailesinin günahi hiçbir zaman kurban ya da sunuyla bile bagislanmayacaktir diyerek Elinin ailesi hakkinda ant içtim. Tanriya saygisizlik ettiler, Masoretik metin Baslarina lanet getirdiler.
3:14 And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering for ever.
3:15 Samuel sabaha kadar yatti, sonra RABbin Tapinaginin kapilarini açti. Gördügü görümü Eliye söylemekten çekiniyordu.
3:15 And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to show Eli the vision.
3:16 Ama Eli ona, Oglum Samuel! diye seslendi. Samuel, Iste buradayim diye yanitladi.
3:16 Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he answered, Here am I.
3:17 Eli, RAB sana neler söyledi? diye sordu, Lütfen benden gizleme. Sana söylediklerinden birini bile benden gizlersen, Tanri sana aynisini, hatta daha kötüsünü yapsin!
3:17 And he said, What is the thing that the LORD has said unto you? I pray you hide it not from me: God do so to you, and more also, if you hide any thing from me of all the things that he said unto you.
3:18 Bunun üzerine Samuel hiçbir sey gizlemeden ona her seyi anlatti. Eli de, O RABdir, gözünde iyi olani yapsin dedi.
3:18 And Samuel told him everything, and hid nothing from him. And he said, It is the LORD: let him do what seems him good.
3:19 Samuel büyürken RAB onunla birlikteydi. RAB ona verdigi sözlerin hiçbirinin bosa çikmasina izin vermedi.
3:19 And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.
3:20 Samuelin RABbin bir peygamberi olarak onaylandigini Dandan Beer-Sevaya kadar bütün Israil anladi.
3:20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.
3:21 RAB Silo'da görünmeyi sürdürdü. Orada sözü araciligiyla kendisini Samuel'e tanitti.
3:21 And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
4:1 Samuelin sözü bütün Israilde yayildi. yayildi, Septuaginta O günlerde Filistliler Israillilerle savasmak üzere toplandilar. Israilliler Filistlilerle savasmak üzere yola çiktilar. Israilliler Even-Ezerde, Filistliler de Afekte ordugah kurdu.
4:1 And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and pitched beside Ebenezer: and the Philistines pitched in Aphek.
4:2 Filistliler Israile karsi savas düzenine girdiler. Savas her yere yayilinca, Filistliler Israillileri bozguna ugratti. Savas alaninda dört bine yakin Israilliyi öldürdüler.
4:2 And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel: and when they joined battle, Israel was smitten before the Philistines: and they slew of the army in the field about four thousand men.
4:3 Askerler ordugaha dönünce, Israilin ileri gelenleri, Neden bugün RAB bizi Filistlilerin önünde bozguna ugratti? diye sordular, RABbin Antlasma Sandigini Silodan buraya getirelim ki, aramiza geldiginde bizi düsmanlarimizin elinden kurtarsin.
4:3 And when the people were come into the camp, the elders of Israel said, Wherefore has the LORD smitten us to day before the Philistines? Let us fetch the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of Shiloh unto us, that, when it comes among us, it may save us out of the hand of our enemies.
4:4 Halk Siloya adamlar gönderdi. Keruvlar arasinda taht kurmus, Her Seye Egemen RABbin Antlasma Sandigini oradan getirdiler. Elinin iki oglu, Hofni ile Pinehas da Tanrinin Antlasma Sandiginin yanindaydilar.
4:4 So the people sent to Shiloh, that they might bring from thence the ark of the covenant of the LORD of hosts, which dwells between the cherubims: and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
4:5 RABbin Antlasma Sandigi ordugaha varinca, bütün Israilliler öyle yüksek sesle bagirdilar ki, yer yerinden oynadi.
4:5 And when the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth rang again.
4:6 Filistliler bagrismalari duyunca, Ibranilerin ordugahindaki bu yüksek bagrismalarin anlami ne? diye sordular. RABbin Sandiginin ordugaha getirildigini ögrenince,
4:6 And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, What means the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the LORD was come into the camp.
4:7 korkarak, Tanrilar ordugaha gelmis dediler, Vay basimiza! Daha önce buna benzer bir olay olmamisti.
4:7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God has come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there has not been such a thing in time past.
4:8 Vay basimiza! Bu güçlü tanrilarin elinden bizi kim kurtarabilir? Çölde Misirlilari her tür belaya çarptiran tanrilar bunlar.
4:8 Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty Gods? these are the Gods that stroke the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wilderness.
4:9 Güçlü olun, ey Filistliler! Yigitçe davranin! Yoksa, Ibraniler size nasil boyun egdiyse, siz de onlara öyle boyun egeceksiniz. Bu yüzden yigitçe davranin ve savasin!
4:9 Be strong and quit yourselves like men, O all of you Philistines, that all of you be not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been to you: quit yourselves like men, and fight.
4:10 Böylece Filistliler savasip Israillileri bozguna ugrattilar. Israillilerin hepsi evlerine kaçti. Yenilgi öyle büyüktü ki, Israilliler otuz bin yaya asker yitirdi,
4:10 And the Philistines fought, and Israel was smitten, and they fled every man into his tent: and there was a very great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
4:11 Tanrinin Sandigi alindi, Elinin iki oglu, Hofni ile Pinehas öldü.
4:11 And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain.
4:12 Benyaminli bir adam savas alanindan kosarak ayni gün Siloya ulasti. Giysileri yirtilmis, basi toz toprak içindeydi.
4:12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothes rent, and with earth upon his head.
4:13 Adam Siloya vardiginda, Tanrinin Sandigi için yüregi titreyen Eli, yol kenarinda bir sandalyeye oturmus, kaygiyla bekliyordu. Adam kente girip olup bitenleri anlatinca, kenttekilerin tümü haykirdi.
4:13 And when he came, lo, Eli sat upon a seat by the wayside watching: for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city, and told it, all the city cried out.
4:14 Eli haykirislari duyunca, Bu gürültünün anlami ne? diye sordu. Adam olanlari Eliye bildirmek için hemen onun yanina geldi.
4:14 And when Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, What means the noise of this tumult? And the man came in hastily, and told Eli.
4:15 O sirada Eli doksan sekiz yasindaydi. Gözleri zayiflamis, göremiyordu.
4:15 Now Eli was ninety and eight years old; and his eyes were dim, that he could not see.
4:16 Adam Eliye, Ben savas alanindan geliyorum dedi, Savas alanindan bugün kaçtim. Eli, Ne oldu, oglum? diye sordu.
4:16 And the man said unto Eli, I am he that came out of the army, and I fled to day out of the army. And he said, What is there done, my son?
4:17 Haber getiren adam söyle yanitladi: Israilliler Filistlilerin önünden kaçti. Askerler büyük bir yenilgiye ugradi. Iki oglun, Hofniyle Pinehas öldü. Tanrinin Sandigi da ele geçirildi.
4:17 And the messenger answered and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there has been also a great slaughter among the people, and your two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God is taken.
4:18 Adam Tanrinin Sandigindan söz edince, Eli sandalyeden geriye, kapinin yanina düstü. Yasli ve sisman oldugundan boynu kirilip öldü. Israil halkini kirk yil süreyle yönetmisti.
4:18 And it came to pass, when he made mention of the ark of God, that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck brake, and he died: for he was an old man, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
4:19 Elinin gelini -Pinehasin karisi- gebeydi, dogurmak üzereydi. Tanrinin Sandiginin ele geçirildigini, kayinbabasiyla kocasinin öldügünü duyunca birden sancilari tuttu, yere çömelip dogurdu.
4:19 And his daughter in law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, near to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father in law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her.
4:20 Ölmek üzereyken ona yardim eden kadinlar, Korkma, bir oglun oldu dediler. Ama o aldirmadi, karsilik da vermedi.
4:20 And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her, Fear not; for you have born a son. But she answered not, neither did she regard it.
4:21 Tanrinin Sandigi ele geçirilmis, kayinbabasiyla kocasi ölmüstü. Bu yüzden, Yücelik Israilden ayrildi! diyerek çocuga Ikavotfi adini verdi.
4:21 And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel: because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father in law and her husband.
4:22 Yücelik Israil'den ayrildi! dedi, Çünkü Tanri'nin Sandigi ele geçirildi.
4:22 And she said, The glory is departed from Israel: for the ark of God is taken.
5:1 Filistliler, Tanrinin Sandigini ele geçirdikten sonra, onu Even-Ezerden Asdota götürdüler.
5:1 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Ebenezer unto Ashdod.
5:2 Tanrinin Sandigini Dagon Tapinagina tasiyip Dagon heykelinin yanina yerlestirdiler.
5:2 When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
5:3 Ertesi gün erkenden kalkan Asdotlular, Dagonu RABbin Sandiginin önünde yüzüstü yere düsmüs buldular. Dagonu alip yerine koydular.
5:3 And when they of Ashdod arose early on the next day, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
5:4 Ama ertesi sabah erkenden kalktiklarinda, Dagonu yine RABbin Sandiginin önünde yüzüstü yere düsmüs buldular. Bu kez Dagonun basiyla iki eli kirilmis, esigin üzerinde duruyordu; yalnizca gövdesi kalmisti.
5:4 And when they arose early on the next day morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.
5:5 Dagon kâhinleri de, Asdottaki Dagon Tapinagina bütün gelenler de bu yüzden bugün de tapinagin esigine basmiyorlar.
5:5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod unto this day.
5:6 RAB Asdotlulari ve çevrelerindeki halki agir biçimde cezalandirdi; onlari urlarla cezalandirip sikintiya soktu. Ülkelerinde fareler göründü. Kentin her yanina ölüm saçmaya basladi.
5:6 But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed them, and stroke them with emerods, even Ashdod and the coasts thereof.
5:7 Asdotlular olup bitenleri görünce, Israil Tanrisinin Sandigi yanimizda kalmamali; çünkü O bizi de, ilahimiz Dagonu da agir bir biçimde cezalandiriyor dediler.
5:7 And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us: for his hand is sore upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
5:8 Bunun üzerine ulaklar gönderip bütün Filist beylerini çagirttilar ve, Israil Tanrisinin Sandigini ne yapalim? diye sordular. Filist beyleri, Israil Tanrisinin Sandigi Gata götürülsün dediler. Böylece Israil Tanrisinin Sandigini Gata götürdüler.
5:8 They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about unto Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about thither.
5:9 Ama sandik oraya götürüldükten sonra, RAB o kenti de cezalandirdi. Kenti çok büyük bir korku sardi. RAB kent halkini, büyük küçük herkesi urlarla cezalandirdi.
5:9 And it was so, that, after they had carried it about, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction: and he stroke the men of the city, both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts.
5:10 Bu yüzden Tanrinin Sandigini Ekrona gönderdiler. Tanrinin Sandigi kente girer girmez Ekronlular, Bizi ve halkimizi yok etmek için Israil Tanrisinin Sandigini bize getirdiler! diye bagirdilar.
5:10 Therefore they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to slay us and our people.
5:11 Bütün Filist beylerini toplayarak, Israil Tanrisinin Sandigini buradan uzaklastirin dediler, Sandik yerine geri gönderilsin; öyle ki, bizi de halkimizi da yok etmesin. Çünkü kentin her yanini ölüm korkusu sarmisti. Tanrinin onlara verdigi ceza çok agirdi.
5:11 So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to his own place, that it slay us not, and our people: for there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
5:12 Sag kalanlarda urlar çikti. Kent halkinin haykirisi göklere yükseldi.
5:12 And the men that died not were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
6:1 RABbin Sandigi Filist ülkesinde yedi ay kaldiktan sonra,
6:1 And the ark of the LORD was in the country of the Philistines seven months.
6:2 Filistliler kâhinlerle falcilari çagirtip, RABbin Sandigini ne yapalim? Onu nasil yerine gönderecegimizi bize bildirin dediler.
6:2 And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do to the ark of the LORD? tell us wherewith we shall send it to his place.
6:3 Kâhinlerle falcilar, Israil Tanrisinin Sandigini geri gönderecekseniz, bos göndermeyin diye yanitladilar, Ona bir suç sunusu sunmalisiniz. O zaman iyilesecek ve Onun sizi neden sürekli cezalandirdigini anlayacaksiniz.
6:3 And they said, If all of you send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not empty; but in any way return him a trespass offering: then all of you shall be healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from you.
6:4 Filistliler, Ona suç sunusu olarak ne göndermeliyiz? diye sordular. Kâhinlerle falcilar, Suç sununuz Filist beylerinin sayisina göre bes altin ur ve bes altin fare olsun diye yanitladilar, Çünkü ayni bela hepinizin de, beylerinizin de üzerindedir.
6:4 Then said they, What shall be the trespass offering which we shall return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods, and five golden mice, according to the number of the lords of the Philistines: for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.
6:5 Onun için, urlarin ve ülkeyi yikan farelerin benzerlerini yapin. Böylelikle Israilin Tanrisini onurlandirin. Belki sizin, ilahlarinizin ve ülkenizin üzerindeki cezayi hafifletir.
6:5 Wherefore all of you shall make images of your emerods, and images of your mice that ruin the land; and all of you shall give glory unto the God of Israel: possibly he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.
6:6 Neden Misirlilarin ve firavunun yaptigi gibi inat ediyorsunuz? Tanri Misirlilari alaya aldiktan sonra, Israil halkinin Misirdan çikmasi için onlari serbest birakmadilar mi?
6:6 Wherefore then do all of you harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? when he had wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed?
6:7 Simdi yeni bir arabayla boyunduruk vurulmamis, süt veren iki inek hazirlayin. Inekleri arabaya kosun; buzagilarini artlarindan ayirip ahira götürün.
6:7 Now therefore make a new cart, and take two milk giving cattle, on which there has come no yoke, and tie the cattle to the cart, and bring their calves home from them:
6:8 RABbin Sandigini alip arabaya koyun; suç sunusu olarak Ona göndereceginiz altin esyalari da bir kutuya koyup yanina yerlestirin. Sonra birakin arabayi yoluna gitsin.
6:8 And take the ark of the LORD, and lay it upon the cart; and put the jewels of gold, which all of you return him for a trespass offering, in a coffer by the side thereof; and send it away, that it may go.
6:9 Ama ardindan gözetleyin. Eger kendi ülkesine, Beytsemese giden yoldan ilerlerse, demek ki, üzerimize bu büyük yikimi getiren Odur. Yoksa bu yikimin Ondan gelmedigini, bize bir rastlanti oldugunu anlayacagiz.
6:9 And see, if it goes up by the way of his own coast to Bethshemesh, then he has done us this great evil: but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that stroke us: it was a chance that happened to us.
6:10 Adamlar denileni yaptilar. Süt veren iki inek getirip arabaya kostular, buzagilarini da ahira kapadilar.
6:10 And the men did so; and took two milk giving cattle, and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home:
6:11 Içinde farelerle urlarin altin benzerlerinin bulundugu kutuyu RABbin Sandigiyla birlikte arabaya koydular.
6:11 And they laid the ark of the LORD upon the cart, and the coffer with the mice of gold and the images of their emerods.
6:12 Inekler dosdogru Beytsemes yolundan gittiler. Saga sola sapmadan, bögüre bögüre ana yoldan ilerlediler. Filist beyleri onlari Beytsemes sinirina dek izledi.
6:12 And the cattle took the straight way to the way of Bethshemesh, and went along the highway, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them unto the border of Bethshemesh.
6:13 O sirada Beytsemesliler vadide bugday biçiyorlardi. Gözlerini kaldirip sandigi görünce sevindiler.
6:13 And they of Bethshemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley: and they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.
6:14 Beytsemesli Yesunun tarlasina giren araba oradaki büyük bir tasin yaninda durdu. Beytsemesliler arabanin odununu yardilar, inekleri de RABbe yakmalik sunu olarak sundular.
6:14 And the cart came into the field of Joshua, a Bethshemite, and stood there, where there was a great stone: and they clave the wood of the cart, and offered the cattle a burnt offering unto the LORD.
6:15 Levililer RABbin Sandigini ve içinde altin esyalarin bulundugu yanindaki kutuyu indirip büyük tasin üzerine koymuslardi. O gün Beytsemesliler RABbe yakmalik sunular sunup kurbanlar kestiler.
6:15 And the Levites took down the ark of the LORD, and the coffer that was with it, wherein the jewels of gold were, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Bethshemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day unto the LORD.
6:16 Filistlilerin bes beyi olup bitenleri gördükten sonra ayni gün Ekrona döndüler.
6:16 And when the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to Ekron the same day.
6:17 Filistliler Asdot, Gazze, Askelon, Gat ve Ekron kentleri için RABbe suç sunusu olarak ur biçiminde birer altin gönderdiler.
6:17 And these are the golden emerods which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering unto the LORD; for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Askelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;
6:18 Altin farelerse, surlu kentlerle çevre köyler dahil bes Filistli beye ait kentlerin sayisi kadardi. Beytsemesli Yesunun tarlasinda RABbin Antlasma Sandiginin üzerine kondugu büyük tas tanik olarak bugün de duruyor.
6:18 And the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fenced cities, and of country villages, even unto the great stone of Abel, whereon they set down the ark of the LORD: which stone remains unto this day in the field of Joshua, the Bethshemite.
6:19 RABbin Antlasma Sandiginin içine baktiklari için, RAB Beytsemeslilerden bazilarini cezalandirip yetmis kisiyi yok etti. Halk RABbin baslarina getirdigi bu büyük yikimdan dolayi yas tuttu.
6:19 And he stroke the men of Bethshemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he stroke of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had smitten many of the people with a great slaughter.
6:20 Beytsemesliler, Bu kutsal Tanrinin, RABbin önünde kim durabilir? Bizden sonra kime gidecek? diyorlardi.
6:20 And the men of Bethshemesh said, Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God? and to whom shall he go up from us?
6:21 Sonunda Kiryat-Yearim'de oturanlara ulaklar göndererek, Filistliler RAB'bin Sandigi'ni geri getirdiler; gelin, onu alip götürün dediler. elyazmalari Yetmis kisi, elli bin kisi.
6:21 And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjathjearim, saying, The Philistines have brought again the ark of the LORD; come all of you down, and fetch it up to you.
7:1 Bunun üzerine Kiryat-Yearim halki varip RABbin Sandigini aldi. Onu Avinadavin tepedeki evine götürdüler. RABbin Antlasma Sandigina bakmasi için Avinadav oglu Elazari görevlendirdiler.
7:1 And the men of Kirjathjearim came, and fetched up the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.
7:2 Sandik uzun bir süre, yirmi yil boyunca Kiryat-Yearimde kaldi. Bu arada bütün Israil halki RABbin özlemini çekti.
7:2 And it came to pass, while the ark abode in Kirjathjearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years: and all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.
7:3 Samuel Israil halkina söyle dedi: Eger bütün yüreginizle RABbe dönmeye istekliyseniz, yabanci ilahlari ve Astoretin putlarini aranizdan kaldirin. Kendinizi RABbe adayip yalniz Ona kulluk edin. RAB de sizi Filistlilerin elinden kurtaracaktir.
7:3 And Samuel spoke unto all the house of Israel, saying, If all of you do return unto the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the strange gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
7:4 Bunun üzerine Israilliler Baalin ve Astoretin putlarini atip yalnizca RABbe kulluk etmeye basladilar.
7:4 Then the children of Israel did put away Baalim and Ashtaroth, and served the LORD only.
7:5 O zaman Samuel, Bütün Israil halkini Mispada toplayin, ben de sizin için RABbe yakaracagim dedi.
7:5 And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I will pray for you unto the LORD.
7:6 Mispada toplanan Israilliler kuyudan su çekip RABbin önüne döktüler. O gün oruç tuttular ve, RABbe karsi günah isledik dediler. Samuel Mispada Israil halkina önderlik etti.
7:6 And they gathered together to Mizpeh, and drew water, and poured it out before the LORD, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have sinned against the LORD. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpeh.
7:7 Filistliler Israil halkinin Mispada toplandigini duydular. Filist beyleri Israillilere karsi savasmaya çiktilar. Israilliler bunu duyunca Filistlilerden korktular.
7:7 And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together to Mizpeh, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
7:8 Samuele, Bizi Filistlilerin elinden kurtarmasi için Tanrimiz RABbe yakarmayi birakma dediler.
7:8 And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto the LORD our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.
7:9 Bunun üzerine Samuel bir süt kuzusu alip RABbe tümüyle yakmalik sunu olarak sundu ve Israilliler adina RABbe yakardi. RAB de ona karsilik verdi.
7:9 And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a burnt offering wholly unto the LORD: and Samuel cried unto the LORD for Israel; and the LORD heard him.
7:10 Samuel yakmalik sunuyu sunarken, Filistliler, Israillilere saldirmak üzere yaklasmislardi. Ama RAB o an korkunç bir sesle gürleyerek Filistlileri öyle saskina çevirdi ki, Israillilerin önünde bozguna ugradilar.
7:10 And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel: but the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and humiliated them; and they were smitten before Israel.
7:11 Mispadan çikan Israilliler Filistlileri Beytkarin altina kadar kovalayip öldürdüler.
7:11 And the men of Israel went out of Mizpeh, and pursued the Philistines, and stroke them, until they came under Bethcar.
7:12 Samuel bir tas alip Mispa ile Sen arasina dikti. RAB buraya kadar bize yardim etmistir diyerek tasa Even-Ezer adini verdi.
7:12 Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Until now has the LORD helped us.
7:13 Yenilgiye ugrayan Filistliler bir daha Israil topraklarina saldirmadilar. Samuel yasadigi sürece RAB Filistlilerin saldirmasini engelledi.
7:13 So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more into the coast of Israel: and the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
7:14 Ekrondan Gata kadar Filistlilerin ele geçirdigi kentler Israile geri verildi. Bunun yanisira Israilin sinir topraklari da Filistlilerin elinden kurtarildi. Israillilerle Amorlular arasinda ise baris vardi.
7:14 And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even unto Gath; and the coasts thereof did Israel deliver out of the hands of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
7:15 Samuel yasadigi sürece Israile önderlik yapti.
7:15 And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
7:16 Her yil gidip Beyteli, Gilgali, Mispayi dolasir, bu kentlerden Israili yönetirdi.
7:16 And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel in all those places.
7:17 Sonra Rama'daki evine döner, Israil'i oradan yönetirdi. Orada RAB'be bir sunak yapti.
7:17 And his return was to Ramah; for there was his house; and there he judged Israel; and there he built an altar unto the LORD.
8:1 Samuel yaslaninca ogullarini Israile önder atadi.
8:1 And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel.
8:2 Beer-Sevada görev yapan ilk oglunun adi Yoel, ikinci oglunun adiysa Aviyaydi.
8:2 Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abiah: they were judges in Beersheba.
8:3 Ama ogullari onun yolunda yürümediler. Tersine, haksiz kazanca yönelip rüsvet alir, yargida yan tutarlardi.
8:3 And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after illegal gain, and took bribes, and perverted judgment.
8:4 Bu yüzden Israilin bütün ileri gelenleri toplanip Ramaya, Samuelin yanina vardilar.
8:4 Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,
8:5 Ona, Bak, sen yaslandin dediler, Ogullarin da senin yolunda yürümüyor. Simdi, öteki uluslarda oldugu gibi, bizi yönetecek bir kral ata.
8:5 And said unto him, Behold, you are old, and your sons walk not in your ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.
8:6 Ne var ki, Bizi yönetecek bir kral ata demeleri Samuelin hosuna gitmedi. Samuel RABbe yakardi.
8:6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
8:7 RAB, Samuele su karsiligi verdi: Halkin sana bütün söylediklerini dinle. Çünkü reddettikleri sen degilsin; krallari olarak beni reddettiler.
8:7 And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto you: for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
8:8 Onlari Misirdan çikardigim günden bu yana bütün yaptiklarinin aynisini sana da yapiyorlar. Beni birakip baska ilahlara kulluk ettiler.
8:8 According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto you.
8:9 Simdi onlari dinle. Ancak onlari açikça uyar ve kendilerine krallik yapacak kisinin onlari nasil yönetecegini söyle.
8:9 Now therefore hearken unto their voice: nevertheless yet protest solemnly unto them, and show them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
8:10 Samuel kendisinden kral isteyen halka RABbin bütün söylediklerini bildirdi:
8:10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.
8:11 Size krallik yapacak kisinin yönetimi söyle olacak: Ogullarinizi alip savas arabalarinda ve atli birliklerinde görevlendirecek. Onun savas arabalarinin önünde kosacaklar.
8:11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.
8:12 Bazilarini biner, bazilarini elliser kisilik birliklere komutan atayacak. Kimisini topragini sürüp ekinini biçmek, kimisini de silahlarin ve savas arabalarinin donatimini yapmak için görevlendirecek.
8:12 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
8:13 Kizlarinizi itriyatçi, asçi, firinci olmak üzere alacak.
8:13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
8:14 Seçkin tarlalarinizi, baglarinizi, zeytinliklerinizi alip hizmetkârlarina verecek.
8:14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive yards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
8:15 Tahillarinizin, üzümlerinizin ondaligini alip saray görevlileriyle öbür hizmetkârlarina dagitacak.
8:15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
8:16 Kadin erkek kölelerinizi, seçkin bogalarinizi, eseklerinizi alip kendi isinde çalistiracak.
8:16 And he will take your male servants, and your maidservants, and your best young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
8:17 Sürülerinizin de ondaligini alacak. Sizler ise onun köleleri olacaksiniz.
8:17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and all of you shall be his servants.
8:18 Bunlar gerçeklestiginde, seçtiginiz kral yüzünden feryat edeceksiniz. Ama RAB o gün size karsilik vermeyecek. Gençlerinizi.
8:18 And all of you shall cry out in that day because of your king which all of you shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
8:19 Ne var ki, halk Samuelin sözünü dinlemek istemedi. Hayir, bizi yönetecek bir kral olsun dediler,
8:19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
8:20 Böylece biz de bütün uluslar gibi olacagiz. Kralimiz bizi yönetecek, önümüzden gidip savaslarimizi sürdürecek.
8:20 That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
8:21 Halkin bütün söylediklerini dinleyen Samuel, bunlari RABbe aktardi.
8:21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.
8:22 RAB Samuel'e, Onlarin sözünü dinle ve baslarina bir kral ata diye buyurdu. Bunun üzerine Samuel Israilliler'e, Herkes kendi kentine dönsün dedi.
8:22 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go all of you every man unto his city.
9:1 Benyamin oymagindan Afiyah oglu Bekorat oglu Seror oglu Aviel oglu Kis adinda bir adam vardi. Benyaminli Kis sözü geçen biriydi.
9:1 Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power.
9:2 Saul adinda genç, yakisikli bir oglu vardi. Israil halki arasinda ondan daha yakisiklisi yoktu. Boyu herkesten bir bas daha uzundu.
9:2 And he had a son, whose name was Saul, a choice young man, and a goodly: and there was not among the children of Israel a better person than he: from his shoulders and upward he was higher than any of the people.
9:3 Bir gün Saulun babasi Kisin esekleri kayboldu. Kis, oglu Saula, Hizmetkârlardan birini yanina al da git, esekleri ara dedi.
9:3 And the asses of Kish Saul's father were lost. And Kish said to Saul his son, Take now one of the servants with you, and arise, go seek the asses.
9:4 Saul Efrayim daglik bölgesinden geçip Salisa topraklarini dolasti. Ama esekleri bulamadilar. Saalim bölgesine geçtiler. Esekler orada da yoktu. Sonra Benyamin bölgesinden geçtilerse de, hayvanlari bulamadilar.
9:4 And he passed through mount Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalisha, but they found them not: then they passed through the land of Shalim, and there they were not: and he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they found them not.
9:5 Suf bölgesine varinca, Saul yanindaki hizmetkârina, Haydi dönelim! Yoksa babam esekleri düsünmekten vazgeçip bizim için kaygilanmaya baslar dedi.
9:5 And when they were come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant that was with him, Come, and let us return; lest my father leave caring for the asses, and take thought for us.
9:6 Hizmetkâr, Bak, bu kentte saygin bir Tanri adami vardir diye karsilik verdi, Bütün söyledikleri bir bir yerine geliyor. Simdi ona gidelim. Belki gidecegimiz yolu o bize gösterir.
9:6 And he said unto him, Behold now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honourable man; all that he says comes surely to pass: now let us go thither; possibly he can show us our way that we should go.
9:7 Saul, Gidersek, adama ne götürecegiz? dedi, Torbalarimizdaki ekmek tükendi. Tanri adamina götürecek bir armaganimiz yok. Neyimiz kaldi ki?
9:7 Then said Saul to his servant, But, behold, if we go, what shall we bring the man? for the bread is spent in our vessels, and there is not a present to bring to the man of God: what have we?
9:8 Hizmetkâr, Bak, bende çeyrek sekel gümüs var diye karsilik verdi, Gidecegimiz yolu bize göstermesi için bunu Tanri adamina verecegim.
9:8 And the servant answered Saul again, and said, Behold, I have here at hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver: that will I give to the man of God, to tell us our way.
9:9 -Eskiden Israilde biri Tanriya bir sey sormak istediginde, Haydi, biliciye gidelim derdi. Çünkü bugün peygamber denilene o zaman bilici denirdi.-
9:9 (in time past in Israel, when a man went to enquire of God, thus he spoke, Come, and let us go to the seer: for he that is now called a Prophet was in time past called a Seer.)
9:10 Saul hizmetkârina, Iyi, haydi gidelim dedi. Böylece Tanri adaminin yasadigi kente gittiler.
9:10 Then said Saul to his servant, Well said; come, let us go. So they went unto the city where the man of God was.
9:11 Yokustan kente dogru çikarlarken, kuyudan su çekmeye giden kizlarla karsilastilar. Onlara, Bilici burada mi? diye sordular.
9:11 And as they went up the hill to the city, they found young maidens going out to draw water, and said unto them, Is the seer here?
9:12 Kizlar, Evet, ilerde diye karsilik verdiler, Simdi çabuk davranin. Kentimize bugün geldi. Çünkü halk bugün tapinma yerinde bir kurban sunacak.
9:12 And they answered them, and said, He is; behold, he is before you: make haste now, for he came to day to the city; for there is a sacrifice of the people to day in the high place:
9:13 Kente girer girmez, yemek için tapinma yerine çikmadan önce onu bulacaksiniz. Kurbani o kutsayacagi için, kendisi gelmeden halk yemek yemez. Çagrili olanlar o geldikten sonra yemeye baslar. Simdi gidin, onu hemen bulursunuz.
9:13 As soon as all of you be come into the city, all of you shall immediately find him, before he go up to the high place to eat: for the people will not eat until he comes, because he does bless the sacrifice; and afterwards they eat that be bidden. Now therefore get you up; for about this time all of you shall find him.
9:14 Saulla hizmetkâri kente gittiler. Kente girdiklerinde, tapinma yerine çikmaya hazirlanan Samuel onlara dogru ilerliyordu.
9:14 And they went up into the city: and when they were come into the city, behold, Samuel came out against them, in order to go up to the high place.
9:15 Saul gelmeden bir gün önce RAB Samuele sunu açiklamisti:
9:15 Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear a day before Saul came, saying,
9:16 Yarin bu saatlerde sana Benyamin bölgesinden birini gönderecegim. Onu halkim Israilin önderi olarak meshedeceksin. Halkimi Filistlilerin elinden o kurtaracak. Halkimin durumuna baktim; çünkü haykirislari bana ulasti.
9:16 Tomorrow about this time I will send you a man out of the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be captain over my people Israel, that he may save my people out of the hand of the Philistines: for I have looked upon my people, because their cry has come unto me.
9:17 Samuel Saulu görünce, RAB, Iste sana sözünü ettigim adam! dedi, Halkima o önderlik edecek.
9:17 And when Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said unto him, Behold the man whom I spoke to you of! this same shall reign over my people.
9:18 Saul kent kapisinda duran Samuele yaklasti. Bilicinin evi nerede, lütfen söyler misin? dedi.
9:18 Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, Tell me, I pray you, where the seer's house is.
9:19 Samuel, Bilici benim diye yanitladi, Önümden tapinma yerine çikin. Bugün benimle birlikte yemek yiyeceksiniz. Yarin sabah düsündügün her seyi sana bildirip seni geri gönderirim.
9:19 And Samuel answered Saul, and said, I am the seer: go up before me unto the high place; for all of you shall eat with me to day, and tomorrow I will let you go, and will tell you all that is in yours heart.
9:20 Üç gün önce kaybolan eseklerin için kaygilanma. Onlar bulundu. Israilin özlemi kime yönelik? Sana ve babanin ailesine degil mi?
9:20 And as for yours asses that were lost three days ago, set not your mind on them; for they are found. And on whom is all the desire of Israel? Is it not on you, and on all your father's house?
9:21 Saul su karsiligi verdi: Ben Israil oymaklarinin en küçügü olan Benyamin oymagindan degil miyim? Ait oldugum boy da Benyamin oymagina bagli bütün boylarin en küçügü degil mi? Bana neden böyle seyler söylüyorsun?
9:21 And Saul answered and said, Am not I a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel? and my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? wherefore then speak you so to me?
9:22 Samuel Saul ile hizmetkârini alip yemek odasina götürdü; yaklasik otuz çagrili arasinda ilk sirayi onlara verdi.
9:22 And Samuel took Saul and his servant, and brought them into the parlour, and made them sit in the chiefest place among them that were bidden, which were about thirty persons.
9:23 Sonra asçiya, Sana verdigim ve bir kenara ayirmani söyledigim payi getir dedi.
9:23 And Samuel said unto the cook, Bring the portion which I gave you, of which I said unto you, Set it by you.
9:24 Asçi budu getirip Saulun önüne koydu. Samuel, Iste senin için ayrilan parça, buyur ye! dedi, Çünkü bunu belirtilen gün çagirdigim halkla birlikte yemen için sakladim. O gün Saul Samuelle yemek yedi.
9:24 And the cook took up the shoulder, and that which was upon it, and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, Behold that which is left! set it before you, and eat: for unto this time has it been kept for you since I said, I have invited the people. So Saul did eat with Samuel that day.
9:25 Tapinma yerinden kente indikten sonra Samuel evinin daminda Saulla konustu.
9:25 And when they were come down from the high place into the city, Samuel communed with Saul upon the top of the house.
9:26 Sabah erkenden, safak sökerken kalktilar. Samuel, damdan Saulu çagirip, Hazirlan, seni gönderecegim dedi. Saul kalkti. Samuelle birlikte disari çiktilar.
9:26 And they arose early: and it came to pass about the spring of the day, that Samuel called Saul to the top of the house, saying, Up, that I may send you away. And Saul arose, and they went out both of them, he and Samuel, abroad.
9:27 Kentin sinirina yaklasirken Samuel Saul'a, Hizmetkâra önümüzden gitmesini söyle dedi. Hizmetkâr öne geçince, Samuel, Ama sen dur diye ekledi, Sana Tanri'nin sözünü bildirecegim. konustu, Septuaginta Saul için damda bir dösek serildi, o da orada yatti.
9:27 And as they were going down to the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul, Bid the servant pass on before us, (and he passed on), but stand you still a while, that I may show you the word of God.
10:1 Sonra Samuel yag kabini alip yagi Saulun basina döktü. Onu öpüp söyle dedi: RAB seni kendi halkina önder olarak meshetti.
10:1 Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because the LORD has anointed you to be captain over his inheritance?
10:2 Bugün benden ayrildiktan sonra Benyamin sinirinda, Selsahtaki Rahelin mezari yaninda iki kisiyle karsilasacaksin. Sana, Aramaya çiktigin esekler bulundu diyecekler, Baban esekleri düsünmekten vazgeçti, oglum için ne yapsam diye sizin için kaygilanmaya basladi.
10:2 When you are departed from me to day, then you shall find two men by Rachel's tomb in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say unto you, The asses which you went to seek are found: and, lo, your father has left the care of the asses, and sorrows for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
10:3 Oradan daha ilerleyip Tavordaki mese agacina varacaksin. Orada biri üç oglak, biri üç somun ekmek, öbürü de bir tulum sarapla Tanrinin huzuruna, Beytele çikan üç adamla karsilasacaksin.
10:3 Then shall you go on forward from thence, and you shall come to the plain of Tabor, and there shall meet you three men going up to God to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine:
10:4 Seni selamlayip iki somun ekmek verecekler. Sen de kabul edeceksin.
10:4 And they will salute you, and give you two loaves of bread; which you shall receive of their hands.
10:5 Sonra Filist ordugahinin bulundugu Givat-Elohime varacaksin. Kente girince, önlerinde çenk, tef, kaval ve lir çalanlarla birlikte peygamberlik ederek tapinma yerinden inen bir peygamber topluluguyla karsilasacaksin.
10:5 After that you shall come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines: and it shall come to pass, when you are come thither to the city, that you shall meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they shall prophesy:
10:6 RABbin Ruhu senin üzerine güçlü bir biçimde inecek. Onlarla birlikte peygamberlikte bulunacak ve baska bir kisilige bürüneceksin.
10:6 And the Spirit of the LORD will come upon you, and you shall prophesy with them, and shall be turned into another man.
10:7 Bu belirtiler gerçeklestiginde, duruma göre gerekeni yap. Çünkü Tanri seninledir.
10:7 And let it be, when these signs are come unto you, that you do as occasion serve you; for God is with you.
10:8 Simdi benden önce Gilgala git. Yakmalik sunulari sunmak ve esenlik kurbanlarini kesmek için ben de yanina gelecegim. Ancak, ben yanina gelip ne yapacagini bildirene dek yedi gün beklemen gerekecek.
10:8 And you shall go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down unto you, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings: seven days shall you tarry, till I come to you, and show you what you shall do.
10:9 Saul, Samuelin yanindan ayrilmak üzere ona sirtini döner dönmez, Tanri ona baska bir kisilik verdi. O gün bütün bu belirtiler gerçeklesti.
10:9 And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those signs came to pass that day.
10:10 Givaya varinca, Saulu bir peygamber toplulugu karsiladi. Tanrinin Ruhu güçlü bir biçimde üzerine indi ve Saul onlarla birlikte peygamberlikte bulunmaya basladi.
10:10 And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.
10:11 Onu önceden taniyanlarin hepsi, peygamberlerle birlikte peygamberlikte bulundugunu görünce, birbirlerine, Ne oldu Kis ogluna? Saul da mi peygamber oldu? diye sordular.
10:11 And it came to pass, when all that knew him in time past saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that has come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
10:12 Orada oturanlardan biri, Ya onlarin babasi kim? dedi. Iste, Saul da mi peygamber oldu? sözü buradan gelir.
10:12 And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
10:13 Saul peygamberlikte bulunduktan sonra tapinma yerine çikti.
10:13 And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
10:14 Amcasi, Saul ile hizmetkârina, Nerede kaldiniz? diye sordu. Saul, Esekleri ariyorduk diye karsilik verdi, Onlari bulamayinca, Samuele gittik.
10:14 And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant, Where went all of you? And he said, To seek the asses: and when we saw that they were no where, we came to Samuel.
10:15 Amcasi, Samuel sana neler söyledi, lütfen bana da anlat dedi.
10:15 And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray you, what Samuel said unto you.
10:16 Saul, Eseklerin bulundugunu bize açikça bildirdi diye yanitladi. Ama Samuelin krallikla ilgili sözlerini amcasina açiklamadi.
10:16 And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spoke, he told him not.
10:17 Sonra Samuel, Israil halkini Mispada RAB için bir araya getirip söyle dedi: Israilin Tanrisi RAB diyor ki, Ben Israillileri Misirdan çikardim. Misirlilarin ve size baski yapan bütün kralliklarin elinden sizi kurtardim.
10:17 And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD to Mizpeh;
10:18 And said unto the children of Israel, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all kingdoms, and of them that oppressed you:
10:19 Ama siz bugün bütün zorluk ve sikintilarinizdan sizi kurtaran Tanriniza sirt çevirdiniz ve, Hayir, bize bir kral ata dediniz. Simdi RABbin önünde oymak oymak, boy boy dizilin.
10:19 And all of you have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and all of you have said unto him, Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.
10:20 Samuel bütün Israil oymaklarini bir bir öne çikardi. Bunlardan Benyamin oymagi kurayla seçildi.
10:20 And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
10:21 Sonra Benyamin oymagini boy boy öne çagirdi. Matrinin boyu seçildi. En sonunda da Matri boyundan Kis oglu Saul seçildi. Onu aradilarsa da bulamadilar.
10:21 When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was taken, and Saul the son of Kish was taken: and when they sought him, he could not be found.
10:22 Yine RABbe, O daha buraya gelmedi mi? diye sordular. RAB de, O burada, esyalarin arasinda saklaniyor dedi.
10:22 Therefore they enquired of the LORD further, if the man should yet come thither. And the LORD answered, Behold he has hid himself among the stuff.
10:23 Bunun üzerine kosup Saulu oradan getirdiler. Saul halkin arasina geldi. Boyu hepsinden bir bas uzundu.
10:23 And they ran and fetched him thence: and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
10:24 Samuel halka, RABbin seçtigi adami görüyor musunuz? dedi, Bütün halkin arasinda bir benzeri yok. Bunun üzerine halk, Yasasin kral! diye bagirdi.
10:24 And Samuel said to all the people, See all of you him whom the LORD has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, God save the king.
10:25 Samuel kralligin ilkelerini halka açikladi. Bunlari kitap haline getirip RABbin önüne koydu. Sonra herkesi evine gönderdi.
10:25 Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
10:26 Saul da Givaya, kendi evine döndü. Tanrinin isteklendirdigi yigitler ona eslik ettiler.
10:26 And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and there went with him a band of men, whose hearts God had touched.
10:27 Ama bazi kötü kisiler, O bizi nasil kurtarabilir? diyerek Saul'u küçümsediler ve ona armagan vermediler. Saul ise buna aldirmadi.
10:27 But the children of Belial said, How shall this man save us? And they despised him, and brought no presents. But he held his peace.
11:1 Ammon Krali Nahas Yaves-Gilat üzerine yürüyüp kenti kusatti. Bütün Yavesliler, Nahasa, Bizimle bir antlasma yap, sana kulluk ederiz dediler.
11:1 Then Nahash the Ammonite came up, and encamped against Jabeshgilead: and all the men of Jabesh said unto Nahash, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you.
11:2 Ama Ammonlu Nahas, Ancak bir kosulla sizinle antlasma yaparim diye karsilik verdi, Bütün Israil halkini küçük düsürmek için her birinizin sag gözünü oyup çikaracagim.
11:2 And Nahash the Ammonite answered them, On this condition will I make a covenant with you, that I may thrust out all your right eyes, and lay it for a reproach upon all Israel.
11:3 Yaves Kentinin ileri gelenleri ona, Israilin her bölgesine ulaklar göndermemiz için bize yedi günlük bir süre tani dediler, Eger bizi kurtaracak kimse çikmazsa o zaman sana teslim oluruz.
11:3 And the elders of Jabesh said unto him, Give us seven days' respite, that we may send messengers unto all the coasts of Israel: and then, if there be no man to save us, we will come out to you.
11:4 Ulaklar Saulun yasadigi Giva Kentine gelip olanlari halka bildirince, herkes hiçkira hiçkira aglamaya basladi.
11:4 Then came the messengers to Gibeah of Saul, and told the tidings in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.
11:5 Tam o sirada Saul, öküzlerinin ardinda, tarladan dönüyordu. Halka ne oldu? Neden böyle agliyorlar? diye sordu. Yaveslilerin söylediklerini ona anlattilar.
11:5 And, behold, Saul came after the herd out of the field; and Saul said, What disturbs the people that they weep? And they told him the tidings of the men of Jabesh.
11:6 Saul bu sözleri duyunca, Tanrinin Ruhu güçlü bir biçimde onun üzerine indi. Saul çok öfkelendi.
11:6 And the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard those tidings, and his anger was kindled greatly.
11:7 Bir çift öküz alip parçaladi. Ulaklar araciligiyla Israilin her bölgesine bu parçalari gönderip söyle dedi: Saul ile Samuelin ardinca gelmeyen herkesin öküzlerine de ayni sey yapilacaktir. Halk RAB korkusuyla sarsildi ve tek beden halinde yola çikti.
11:7 And he took a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the coasts of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whosoever comes not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done unto his oxen. And the fear of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.
11:8 Saul onlari Bezekte topladi. Israil halki üç yüz bin, Yahudalilar ise otuz bin kisiydi.
11:8 And when he numbered them in Bezek, the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
11:9 Oraya gelen Yavesli ulaklara söyle dediler: Yaves-Gilat halkina, Yarin ögleye dogru kurtarilacaksiniz deyin. Ulaklar gidip bu haberi iletince Yavesliler sevindi.
11:9 And they said unto the messengers that came, Thus shall all of you say unto the men of Jabeshgilead, Tomorrow, by that time the sun be hot, all of you shall have help. And the messengers came and showed it to the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
11:10 Ammonlulara, Yarin size teslim olacagiz dediler, Bize ne dilerseniz yapin.
11:10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, Tomorrow we will come out unto you, and all of you shall do with us all that seems good unto you.
11:11 Ertesi gün Saul adamlarini üç bölüge ayirdi. Adamlar sabah nöbetinde Ammonlularin ordugahina girdi. Kirim günün en sicak zamanina dek sürdü. Sag kalanlar dagildi; iki kisi bile bir arada kalmadi.
11:11 And it was so on the next day, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the host in the morning watch, and slew the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it came to pass, that they which remained were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
11:12 Bundan sonra halk Samuele, Saul mu bize krallik yapacak? diyenler kimdi? Getirin onlari, öldürelim dedi.
11:12 And the people said unto Samuel, Who is he that said, Shall Saul reign over us? bring the men, that we may put them to death.
11:13 Ama Saul, Bugün hiç kimse öldürülmeyecek diye yanitladi, Çünkü RAB bugün Israil halkina kurtulus verdi.
11:13 And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death this day: in order to day the LORD has wrought salvation in Israel.
11:14 Samuel halka, Haydi, Gilgala gidip orada kralligi yeniden onaylayalim dedi.
11:14 Then said Samuel to the people, Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there.
11:15 Böylece bütün halk Gilgal'a gidip RAB'bin önünde Saul'un kral oldugunu onayladi. Orada, RAB'bin önünde esenlik kurbanlari kestiler; Saul da bütün Israilliler de büyük bir sevinç yasadilar.
11:15 And all the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal; and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
12:1 Bundan sonra Samuel Israil halkina söyle dedi: Bana söylediginiz her seye kulak verdim: Size bir kral atadim.
12:1 And Samuel said unto all Israel, Behold, I have hearkened unto your voice in all that all of you said unto me, and have made a king over you.
12:2 Simdi size önderlik yapan bir kraliniz var. Bense yaslandim, saçim agardi. Ogullarim da sizlerle birlikte. Gençligimden bu güne dek size önderlik yaptim.
12:2 And now, behold, the king walks before you: and I am old and grayheaded; and, behold, my sons are with you: and I have walked before you from my childhood unto this day.
12:3 Iste karsinizda duruyorum. Hanginizin öküzünü aldim? Kimin esegine el koydum? Kimi dolandirdim? Kime baski yaptim? Göz yummak için kimden rüsvet aldim? RABbin ve Onun meshettiginin önünde bana karsi taniklik edin de size karsiligini vereyim.
12:3 Behold, here I am: witness against me before the LORD, and before his anointed: whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it you.
12:4 Halk, Bizi dolandirmadin diye karsilik verdi, Bize baski da yapmadin. Kimsenin elinden hiçbir sey almadin.
12:4 And they said, You have not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither have you taken ought of any man's hand.
12:5 Samuel, Bana karsi bir sey bulamadiginiza bugün hem RAB, hem de Onun meshettigi kral taniktir dedi. Evet, taniktir dediler.
12:5 And he said unto them, The LORD is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that all of you have not found ought in my hand. And they answered, He is witness.
12:6 Samuel konusmasini söyle sürdürdü: Musa ile Harunu görevlendiren, atalarinizi Misirdan çikaran RABdir.
12:6 And Samuel said unto the people, It is the LORD that advanced Moses and Aaron, and that brought your fathers up out of the land of Egypt.
12:7 Simdi burada durun, RABbin önünde, Onun sizi ve atalarinizi tekrar tekrar nasil kurtardigina dair kanitlar göstereyim size.
12:7 Now therefore stand still, that I may reason with you before the LORD of all the righteous acts of the LORD, which he did to you and to your fathers.
12:8 Yakup Misira gittikten sonra, atalariniz RABbe yakardi. O da atalarinizi Misirdan çikarip burada yerlesmelerini saglayan Musa ile Harunu gönderdi.
12:8 When Jacob was come into Egypt, and your fathers cried unto the LORD, then the LORD sent Moses and Aaron, which brought forth your fathers out of Egypt, and made them dwell in this place.
12:9 Ama atalariniz Tanrilari RABbi unuttular. Bu yüzden RAB onlari Hasor ordusunun komutani Siseranin, Filistlilerin ve Moav Kralinin eline teslim etti. Bunlar atalariniza karsi savastilar.
12:9 And when they forgotten about the LORD their God, he sold them into the hand of Sisera, captain of the host of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fought against them.
12:10 Atalariniz RABbe, Günah isledik; RABbi birakip Baalin ve Astoretin putlarina kulluk ettik. Ama simdi bizi düsmanlarimizin elinden kurtar, sana kulluk edecegiz diye seslendiler.
12:10 And they cried unto the LORD, and said, We have sinned, because we have forsaken the LORD, and have served Baalim and Ashtaroth: but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve you.
12:11 RAB de Yerubbaali, Bedanifö, Yiftahi ve ben Samueli gönderdi. Güvenlik içinde yasamaniz için sizi saran düsmanlarinizin elinden kurtardi. Barak. Simsonu.
12:11 And the LORD sent Jerubbaal, and Bedan, and Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side, and all of you dwelled safe.
12:12 Ama siz Ammon Krali Nahasin üzerinize yürüdügünü görünce, Tanriniz RAB kraliniz oldugu halde bana, Hayir, bize bir kral önderlik yapacak dediniz.
12:12 And when all of you saw that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon came against you, all of you said unto me, Nay; but a king shall reign over us: when the LORD your God was your king.
12:13 Iste seçtiginiz, dilediginiz kral! Evet, RAB size bir kral verdi.
12:13 Now therefore behold the king whom all of you have chosen, and whom all of you have desired! and, behold, the LORD has set a king over you.
12:14 Eger RABden korkar, Ona kulluk ederseniz, Onun sözünü dinleyip buyruklarina karsi gelmezseniz, hem siz hem de önderiniz olacak kral Tanriniz RABbin ardinca giderseniz, ne âlâ!
12:14 If all of you will fear the LORD, and serve him, and obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall both all of you and also the king that reigns over you continue following the LORD your God:
12:15 Ama RABbin sözünü dinlemez, buyruklarina karsi gelirseniz, RAB kralinizi cezalandirdigi gibi sizi de cezalandiracaktir. Atalarinizi.
12:15 But if all of you will not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall the hand of the LORD be against you, as it was against your fathers.
12:16 Simdi oldugunuz yerde durun ve RABbin gözlerinizin önünde yapacagi su olaganüstü olayi görün.
12:16 Now therefore stand and see this great thing, which the LORD will do before your eyes.
12:17 Bugün bugday biçme zamani degil mi? Gögü gürletsin, yagmur yagdirsin diye RABbe yalvaracagim. Böylece bir kral istemekle yaptiginiz kötülügün RABbin gözünde ne denli büyük oldugunu iyice anlayacaksiniz.
12:17 Is it not wheat harvest to day? I will call unto the LORD, and he shall send thunder and rain; that all of you may perceive and see that your wickedness is great, which all of you have done in the sight of the LORD, in asking you a king.
12:18 Samuel RABbe yalvardi ve RAB o gün gögü gürletti, yagmur yagdirdi. Halk RABden de Samuelden de çok korktu.
12:18 So Samuel called unto the LORD; and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.
12:19 Bunun üzerine Samuele, Yok olmayalim diye, biz kullarin için Tanrin RABbe yakar dediler, Çünkü bütün günahlarimiza kendimize bir kral istemek kötülügünü de ekledik.
12:19 And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray for your servants unto the LORD your God, that we die not: for we have added unto all our sins this evil, to ask us a king.
12:20 Samuel halka, Korkmayin dedi, Siz bu büyük kötülügü yaptiniz, ama yine de RABbin ardinca gitmekten vazgeçmeyin; tersine, bütün yüreginizle RABbe kulluk edin.
12:20 And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: all of you have done all this wickedness: yet turn not aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart;
12:21 Kimseyi kurtaramayan yararsiz putlarin ardinca gitmeyin; çünkü onlar degersizdir.
12:21 And turn all of you not aside: for then should all of you go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.
12:22 RAB görkemli adinin hatirina halkini birakmayacak. Çünkü sizi kendi halki kilmaktan hosnut kaldi.
12:22 For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it has pleased the LORD to make you his people.
12:23 Bana gelince, sizin için RABbe yalvarmaktan vazgeçip Ona karsi günah islemek benden uzak olsun! Ancak size iyi ve dogru yolu ögretecegim.
12:23 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:
12:24 Yalniz RABden korkun, Ona baglilikla ve bütün yüreginizle kulluk edin. Onun sizler için ne görkemli isler yaptigini bir düsünün!
12:24 Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he has done for you.
12:25 Ama kötülük yapmayi sürdürürseniz, hem siz yok olacaksiniz, hem de kraliniz.
12:25 But if all of you shall still do wickedly, all of you shall be consumed, both all of you and your king.
