9Muṅwe musi vhe Shilo, vho no ḽa vho no nwa, Hanna a takuwa a ima. Zwino tshifhe Eli o vha o dzula vhudzuloni hawe tsini ha muhangammbwa wa thembele ya Muṋe washu. 10Hanna a lila nga maanḓa nge mbilu yawe ya vha yo dinalea, a rabela Muṋe washu. 11 A fulufhedzisa Muṋe washu a ri, “Muṋe washu Mulangazwoṱhe, arali wa sedza vhuṱungu hanga, wa nnyelelwa, wa si nkhangwe, wa mpha ṅwana wa mutuka, ndi ḓo mu kumedza Iwe Muṋe washu maḓuvha oṱhe a vhutshilo hawe, nahone a nga si vhuye a vheulwa mavhudzi.”
12Musi a tshi khou ḓi rabela Muṋe washu, Eli a sedza mulomo wawe. 13Hanna o vha a tshi khou rabela nga mbilu, milomo yawe i tshi sokou dzinginyea, hone ipfi ḽawe ḽi sa pfali. Eli a fhima uri o kambiwa, 14a mu vhudzisa a ri, “Ndi u kambwa-ḓe honoho? Thomani u kambuluwa!”
15Huno Hanna a fhindula a ri, “Aiwa muṋe wanga, a tho ngo kambiwa. Nṋe ndi musadzi o dinaleaho zwihulu. A tho ngo nwa waini kana halwa, ndo vha ndi tshi khou tou tevhulela Muṋe washu zwa mbiluni yanga. 16Vha songo ri ndi musadzi muvhi, ndo vha ndi tshi khou rabela ngauri mbilu yanga yo lemelwa, ndo ṱungufhala zwihulu.”

18Hanna a ri, “Ngavhe zwine vha amba zwi tshi itea kha nṋe.” Ndi hone Hanna a tshi ḓiṱutshela, a ita na u ḽa zwiḽiwa, tshifhaṱuwo tshawe tsho no takala.

19Nga matshelo vha fhinduwa vha yo luvha Muṋe washu, vha konou humela Rama hayani havho.

24 Musi Hanna o no litshisa Samuele ḓamu, a mu dzhia a mu isa Shilo, a ṱuwa na mboho ya miṅwaha miraru na khilogiramu dza fumi dza vhukhopfu na gumbu ḽa mukumba ḽo ḓala waini. A dzhia Samuele zwenezwo a tshee muṱuku, a mu isa Shilo nḓuni ya Muṋe washu. 25Musi vho no ṱhavha iyo mboho, vha dzhia ṅwana vha mu isa ha Eli. 26Hanna a vhudza Eli a ri, “Muṋe wanga, vha kha ḓi nnyelelwa? Vhukuma ndi nṋe uḽa musadzi we a vha o ima hafha tsini havho a tshi khou rabela Muṋe washu. 27Ndo vha ndi tshi khou humbela hoyu ṅwana nga thabelo, zwino Muṋe washu o mpha tshe nda mu humbela. 28Zwino-ha, ndi mu kumedza Muṋe washu. U ḓo vha wa Muṋe washu vhutshilo hawe hoṱhe.”
