3 Pine apu, muana eu Samuele uvua wenzela Yehowa mudimu+ kumpala kua Eli, kadi dîyi dia kudi Yehowa kadivua ditamba kumvuika matuku au to; bikena kumona+ bivua bikese.
2 Dimue dituku Eli uvua mulale muaba wende wa tshibidilu, ne mêsu ende akavua bitayitayi; katshivua umona to.+
3 Muendu wa Nzambi+ kauvua muanji kujima to, ne Samuele uvua mulale mu ntempelo*+ wa Yehowa, muaba uvua Mushete wa Nzambi.
4 Pashishe Yehowa wakabikila Samuele. Yeye kuitaba ne: “Mmeme eu.”
5 Wakaya kudi Eli lubilu, kuambaye ne: “Mmeme eu, bualu udi mumbikile.” Kadi yeye wakamba ne: “Tshiena mukubikile to. Ndaku ulale kabidi.” Nunku wakaya, yeye kulala.
6 Yehowa wakabikila kabidi ne: “Samuele!” Ke Samuele kujuka, kuyaye kudi Eli, yeye kuamba ne: “Mmeme eu, bualu udi mumbikile.” Kadi yeye wakamba ne: “Muananyi, tshiena mukubikile to. Ndaku ulale kabidi.”
7 (Kadi Samuele kavua muanji kufika ku dimanya Yehowa to, ne dîyi dia Yehowa kadivua dianji kubuluibua kudiye to.)+
8 Nunku Yehowa wakabikila kabidi musangu muisatu ne: “Samuele!” Ke yeye kujuka, kuyaye kudi Eli, kuambaye ne: “Mmeme eu, bualu udi mumbikile.”
Eli wakajingulula dîba adi ne: Yehowa ke uvua ubikila muana au.
9 Nunku Eli wakambila Samuele ne: “Ndaku ulale, yeye mukubikile, wambe ne: ‘Akula, Yehowa, bualu muena mudimu webe udi uteleja.’” Nunku Samuele wakaya, kulalaye muaba wende.
10 Yehowa wakalua, kuimanaye muaba au, yeye kubikila anu bu misangu mikuabu ne: “Samuele, Samuele!” Ke Samuele kuamba ne: “Akula, bualu muena mudimu webe udi uteleja.”
11 Yehowa wakambila Samuele ne: “Mona! Ndi ngenza bualu kampanda mu Isalele buelesha matshi a muntu yonso udi ubumvua ngonga.+
12 Dituku adi nenkumbajile Eli malu onso amvua muambe bua nzubu wende, ku mbangilu too ne ku ndekelu.+
13 Udi ne bua kumuambila ne: ndi ntumina nzubu wende dinyoka dia kashidi bua tshilema tshidiye mumanye,+ bualu bana bende ba balume badi bela Nzambi mulawu,+ kadi yeye ki mmubakanyine to.+
14 Ke bualu kayi ndi muditshipe bua nzubu wa Eli ne: tshilema tshia nzubu wa Eli katshiakubuikidibua musangu nansha umue ne milambu anyi ne mapa to.”+
15 Samuele wakashala mulale too ne mu dinda; pashishe wakunzulula biibi bia nzubu wa Yehowa. Samuele uvua utshina bua kuambila Eli bua tshikena kumona.
16 Kadi Eli wakabikila Samuele ne: “Muananyi Samuele!” Ke yeye kuamba ne: “Mmeme eu.”
17 Wakamuebeja ne: “Mbualu kayi budiye mukuambile? Kubunsokoki koku to. Nzambi akuenzele nunku ne apitshishe apu wewe munsokoke bualu nansha bumue bua ku malu onso adiye mukuambile.”
18 Nunku Samuele wakamuambila malu onso, ne kakamusokoka bualu nansha bumue to. Eli wakamba ne: “N’Yehowa. Enze tshidi tshimpe ku mêsu kuende.”
19 Samuele uvua anu wenda ukola, ne Yehowa nkayende uvua nende+ ne kakalekela dîyi nansha dimue dia ku mêyi ende onso dipanga kukumbana.*
20 Bena Isalele bonso, kumbukila ku Dana too ne ku Bê-sheba, bakamanya ne: Samuele ke uvuabu bateke muprofete wa Yehowa.
21 Yehowa wakatungunuka ne kumueneka ku Shilo, bualu Yehowa wakadileja kudi Samuele ku Shilo ku dîyi dia Yehowa.+
