Notes on this text (1)
- Same Septuagint text as Brenton, with modernised spelling.
1 And the child Samuel ministered to the Lord before Eli the priest: and the word of the Lord was precious in those days, there was no distinct vision.
1 Y EL joven Samuel ministraba á Jehová delante de Eli: y la palabra de Jehová era de estima en aquellos días; no había visión manifiesta.
2 And it came to pass at that time that Eli was sleeping in his place; and his eyes began to fail, and could not see.
2 Y aconteció un día, que estando Eli acostado en su aposento, cuando sus ojos comenzaban á oscurecerse, que no podía ver,
3 And the lamp of God [was burning] before it was trimmed, and Samuel slept in the temple, where [was] the ark of God.
3 Samuel estaba durmiendo en el templo de Jehová, donde el arca de Dios estaba: y antes que la lámpara de Dios fuese apagada,
4 And the Lord called, Samuel, Samuel; and he said, Behold, [here am] I.
4 Jehová llamó á Samuel; y él respondió: Heme aquí.
5 And he ran to Eli, and said, [Here am] I, for thou didst call me: and he said, I did not call thee; return, go to sleep; and he returned and went to sleep.
5 Y corriendo luego á Eli, dijo: Heme aquí; ¿para qué me llamaste? Y Eli le dijo: Yo no he llamado; vuélvete á acostar. Y él se volvió, y acostóse.
6 And the Lord called again, Samuel, Samuel: and he went to Eli the second time, and said, Behold [here am] I, for thou didst call me: and he said, I called thee not; return, go to sleep.
6 Y Jehová volvió á llamar otra vez á Samuel. Y levantándose Samuel vino á Eli, y dijo: Heme aquí; ¿para qué me has llamado? Y él dijo: Hijo mío, yo no he llamado; vuelve, y acuéstate.
7 And [it was] before Samuel knew the Lord, and [before] the word of the Lord was revealed to him.
7 Y Samuel no había conocido aún á Jehová, ni la palabra de Jehová le había sido revelada.
8 And the Lord called Samuel again for the third time: and he arose and went to Eli, and said, Behold, I [am here], for thou didst call me: and Eli perceived that the Lord [had] called the child.
8 Jehová pues llamó la tercera vez á Samuel. Y él levantándose vino á Eli, y dijo: Heme aquí; ¿para qué me has llamado? Entonces entendió Eli que Jehová llamaba al joven.
9 And he said, Return, child, go to sleep; and it shall come to pass if he shall call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, for thy servant hears: and Samuel went and lay down in his place.
9 Y dijo Eli á Samuel: Ve, y acuéstate: y si te llamare, dirás: Habla, Jehová, que tu siervo oye. Así se fué Samuel, y acostóse en su lugar.
10 And the Lord came, and stood, and called him as before: and Samuel said, Speak, for thy servant hears.
10 Y vino Jehová, y paróse, y llamó como las otras veces: ¡Samuel, Samuel! Entonces Samuel dijo: Habla, que tu siervo oye.
11 And the Lord said to Samuel, Behold, I execute my words in Israel; whoever hears them, both his ears shall tingle.
11 Y Jehová dijo á Samuel: He aquí haré yo una cosa en Israel, que á quien la oyere, le retiñirán ambos oídos.
12 In that day I will raise up against Eli all things that I have said against his house; I will begin, and I will make an end.
12 Aquel día yo despertaré contra Eli todas las cosas que he dicho sobre su casa. En comenzando, acabaré también.
13 And I have told him that I will be avenged on his house perpetually for the iniquities of his sons, because his sons spoke evil against God, and he did not admonish them.
13 Y mostraréle que yo juzgaré su casa para siempre, por la iniquidad que él sabe; porque sus hijos se han envilecido, y él no los ha estorbado.
14 And [it shall] not [go on] so; I have sworn to the house of Eli, the iniquity of the house of Eli shall not be atoned for with incense or sacrifices forever.
14 Y por tanto yo he jurado á la casa de Eli, que la iniquidad de la casa de Eli no será expiada jamás, ni con sacrificios ni con presentes.
15 And Samuel slept till morning, and rose early in the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the Lord; and Samuel feared to tell [Eli] the vision.
15 Y Samuel estuvo acostado hasta la mañana, y abrió las puertas de la casa de Jehová. Y Samuel temía descubrir la visión á Eli.
16 And Eli said to Samuel, Samuel, [my] son; and he said, Behold, [here am] I.
16 Llamando pues Eli á Samuel, díjole: Hijo mío, Samuel. Y él respondió: Heme aquí.
17 And he said, What [was] the word that was spoken to thee? I pray thee hide it not from me: may God do these things to thee, and more also, if thou hide from me anything of all the words that were spoken to thee in thine ears.
17 Y dijo: ¿Qué es la palabra que te habló [Jehová]?; ruégote que no me la encubras: así te haga Dios y así te añada, si me encubrieres palabra de todo lo que habló contigo.
18 And Samuel reported all the words, and hid them not from him. And Eli said, He [is] the Lord, he shall do that which is good in his sight.
18 Y Samuel se lo manifestó todo, sin encubrirle nada. Entonces él dijo: Jehová es; haga lo que bien le pareciere.
19 And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and there did not fall one of his words to the ground.
19 Y Samuel creció, y Jehová fué con él, y no dejó caer á tierra ninguna de sus palabras.
20 And all Israel knew from Dan even to Beersheba, that Samuel [was] faithful as a prophet to the Lord.
20 Y conoció todo Israel desde Dan hasta Beer-sebah, que Samuel era fiel profeta de Jehová.
21 And the Lord manifested himself again in Shiloh, for the Lord revealed himself to Samuel; and Samuel was accredited to all Israel as a prophet to the Lord from one end of the land to the other: and Eli [was] very old, and his sons kept advancing [in wickedness], and their way [was] evil before the Lord.
21 Así tornó Jehová á aparecer en Silo: porque Jehová se manifestó á Samuel en Silo con palabra de Jehová.
