10 Ibo gu ibɛbɛrɛ nɛ i Xana ame iti ne, ɔkparamakayi ɔtã Bosate ɔla kaku ibiɛ gbaã. 11 Ne ɔkã ndamu ɔɣɛ sɔ, "O Bosate Ɔlesate, si aanyɔ fɔ ɔɖaborɔ̃go inyɛwe kere fiɛ aanyigi me, fiɛ aibaɣara fɔ ɔɖaborɔ̃go ɣɛɛ ata wũ ɔbirɛrɛĩ ne, iyɔ loasu wũ losɛ ise lotã-ɔ i ɔ̃ agbanayi ɔɖuɖu ame. Siwɛrɛ̃ ikparɛ̃ra kuiwɛ̃ iibapɛgu ɔ̃ iti iso kuiyikuiyi."

12 Gɔ i Xana ɔla ɔ̃akparamakayi ɔ̃ɔtã Bosate ne, Eli ɔla ɔ̃anyɔ ɔ̃ kanya. 13 Xana ɔla ɔ̃akparamakayi i ɔ̃ ɔtu ame. Ne Eli ɔbu sɔ ndã nto mimɔɛ̃ wũ alasɔ ɔ̃ kanya to kabubusi ɣɛɛ silɔ iibɔrɛ manɔ. 14 Ne ɔso ɔkarɛ Xana sɔ, "Ku me ɔwi i ndã aakpa-ɔ? Nyua itãnɛ."

15 Ɣɛɛ Xana ɔtã wũ mmuai sɔ, "Ooɣo lo, wũ sate, ɔrɔ̃go wɔ nto ɔmararã so gbaã loɖe. Iiɖe wain ɣee ndã kpokporoa kumiwɛ̃ lola loɔnɛ; wũ ɔtu ame amɔrɛã nto loɖi loɣere Bosate. 16 Daabu fɔ ɔɖaborɔ̃go, ɔrɔ̃go nyanyariã; alasɔ wũ isoma gu ibo, ibɛbɛrɛ siare kayi nto lokparama i ngbe."

17 Kere ne, Eli ɔtã wũ mmuai sɔ, "Kɛlɛ i isobuɛ ame. Israel Ɣaa si ɔtã-ɔ nnɛ akarɛ wũ."

18 Ne Xana ɔtã mmuai sɔ, "Fɔ ɔɖaborɔ̃go ara si abo-ɔ anɔ kere." Ne kama ne ɔɣo ɔri, ɔkɛlɛ ɔsɛ ɔ̃aɖe aɖera. Ɔ̃ anɔ ɔfiriki fiɛ ɔ̃isito ɔmararã so.

19 Kaya tutuutu ne, Elkana gu ɔ̃ iyomaturi ɔta masɛ maasumu Bosate. Ne kama ka makpese makɛlɛ ma aɖe Rama ne. Elkana ɔsɛgu ɔ̃ ɔre Xana, ne Bosate ɔnɔ ɔ̃ kayiikparama ne. 20 Ne ɔso Xana ɔla kayiri i ɔwi wɔmɔ ame fiɛ ɔɣe ɔbirɛrɛĩ. Ɔtã wũ iyere sɔ Samuel ɔɖi ne karɔ̃ ɔɣɛ sɔ, "Alasɔ lokarɛ wũ lobɔrɛgu i Bosate kɔrɛ."
