اَلْقُضَاة 16
| ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ شَمْشُونُ إِلَى غَزَّةَ، وَرَأَى هُنَاكَ ٱمْرَأَةً زَانِيَةً فَدَخَلَ إِلَيْهَا. | ١ 1 |
And Sampson went to Gaza, and saw there a harlot, and went in to her.
| فَقِيلَ لِلْغَزِّيِّينَ: «قَدْ أَتَى شَمْشُونُ إِلَى هُنَا». فَأَحَاطُوا بِهِ وَكَمَنُوا لَهُ ٱللَّيْلَ كُلَّهُ عِنْدَ بَابِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. فَهَدَأُوا ٱللَّيْلَ كُلَّهُ قَائِلِينَ: «عِنْدَ ضَوْءِ ٱلصَّبَاحِ نَقْتُلُهُ». | ٢ 2 |
And it was reported to the Gazites, saying, Sampson is come hither: and they compassed him and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and they were quiet all the night, saying, Let us wait till the dawn appear, and we will slay him.
| فَٱضْطَجَعَ شَمْشُونُ إِلَى نِصْفِ ٱللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ قَامَ فِي نِصْفِ ٱللَّيْلِ وَأَخَذَ مِصْرَاعَيْ بَابِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَٱلْقَائِمَتَيْنِ وَقَلَعَهُمَا مَعَ ٱلْعَارِضَةِ، وَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى كَتِفَيْهِ وَصَعِدَ بِهَا إِلَى رَأْسِ ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي مُقَابِلَ حَبْرُونَ. | ٣ 3 |
And Sampson slept till midnight, and rose up at midnight, and took hold of the doors of the gate of the city with the two posts, and lifted them up with the bar, and laid them on his shoulders, and he went up to the top of the mountain that is before Chebron, and laid them there.
| وَكَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ أَحَبَّ ٱمْرَأَةً فِي وَادِي سُورَقَ ٱسْمُهَا دَلِيلَةُ. | ٤ 4 |
And it came to pass after this that he loved a woman in Alsorech, and her name [was] Dalida.
| فَصَعِدَ إِلَيْهَا أَقْطَابُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَقَالُوا لَهَا: «تَمَلَّقِيهِ وَٱنْظُرِي بِمَاذَا قُوَّتُهُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ، وَبِمَاذَا نَتَمَكَّنُ مِنْهُ لِكَيْ نُوثِقَهُ لِإِذْلَالِهِ، فَنُعْطِيَكِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَلْفًا وَمِئَةَ شَاقِلِ فِضَّةٍ». | ٥ 5 |
And the princess of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, Beguile him, and see wherein his great strength [is], and wherewith we shall prevail against him, and bind him to humble him; and we will give thee each eleven hundred [pieces] of silver.
| فَقَالَتْ دَلِيلَةُ لِشَمْشُونَ: «أَخْبِرْنِي بِمَاذَا قُوَّتُكَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ؟ وَبِمَاذَا تُوثَقُ لِإِذْلَالِكَ؟» | ٦ 6 |
And Dalida said to Sampson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein [is] thy great strength, and wherewith thou shalt be bound that thou mayest be humbled.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا شَمْشُونُ: «إِذَا أَوْثَقُونِي بِسَبْعَةِ أَوْتَارٍ طَرِيَّةٍ لَمْ تَجِفَّ، أَضْعُفُ وَأَصِيرُ كَوَاحِدٍ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ». | ٧ 7 |
And Sampson said to her, If they bind me with seven moist cords that have not been spoiled, then shall I be weak and be as one of ordinary men.
| فَأَصْعَدَ لَهَا أَقْطَابُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ سَبْعَةَ أَوْتَارٍ طَرِيَّةٍ لَمْ تَجِفَّ، فَأَوْثَقَتْهُ بِهَا، | ٨ 8 |
And the princess of the Philistines brought to her seven moist cords that had not been spoiled, and she bound him with them.
| وَٱلْكَمِينُ لَابِثٌ عِنْدَهَا فِي ٱلْحُجْرَةِ. فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ عَلَيْكَ يَا شَمْشُونُ». فَقَطَعَ ٱلْأَوْتَارَ كَمَا يُقْطَعُ فَتِيلُ ٱلْمَشَاقَةِ إِذَا شَمَّ ٱلنَّارَ، وَلَمْ تُعْلَمْ قُوَّتُهُ. | ٩ 9 |
And the liers in wait remained with her in the chamber; and she said to him, the Philistines [are] upon thee, Sampson: and he broke the cords as if any one should break a thread of tow when it has touched the fire, and his strength was not known.
| فَقَالَتْ دَلِيلَةُ لِشَمْشُونَ: «هَا قَدْ خَتَلْتَنِي وَكَلَّمْتَنِي بِٱلْكَذِبِ، فَأَخْبِرْنِيَ ٱلْآنَ بِمَاذَا تُوثَقُ؟». | ١٠ 10 |
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, thou hast cheated me, and told me lies; now then tell me wherewith thou shalt be bound.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا: «إِذَا أَوْثَقُونِي بِحِبَالٍ جَدِيدَةٍ لَمْ تُسْتَعْمَلْ، أَضْعُفُ وَأَصِيرُ كَوَاحِدٍ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ». | ١١ 11 |
And he said to her, If they should bind me fast with new ropes with which work has not been done, then shall I be weak, and shall be as another man.
| فَأَخَذَتْ دَلِيلَةُ حِبَالًا جَدِيدَةً وَأَوْثَقَتْهُ بِهَا، وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ عَلَيْكَ يَا شَمْشُونُ، وَٱلْكَمِينُ لَابِثٌ فِي ٱلْحُجْرَةِ». فَقَطَعَهَا عَنْ ذِرَاعَيْهِ كَخَيْطٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
And Dalida took new ropes, and bound him with them, and the liers in wait came out of the chamber, and she said, The Philistines [are] upon thee, Sampson: and he broke them off his arms like a thread.
| فَقَالَتْ دَلِيلَةُ لِشَمْشُونَ: «حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ خَتَلْتَنِي وَكَلَّمْتَنِي بِٱلْكَذِبِ، فَأَخْبِرْنِي بِمَاذَا تُوثَقُ؟». فَقَالَ لَهَا: «إِذَا ضَفَرْتِ سَبْعَ خُصَلِ رَأْسِي مَعَ ٱلسَّدَى» | ١٣ 13 |
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, thou hast deceived me, and told me lies; tell me, I intreat thee, wherewith thou mayest be bound: and he said to her, If thou shouldest weave the seven locks of my head with the web, and shouldest fasten them with the pin into the wall, then shall I be weak as another man.
| فَمَكَّنَتْهَا بِٱلْوَتَدِ. وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ عَلَيْكَ يَا شَمْشُونُ». فَٱنْتَبَهَ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ وَقَلَعَ وَتَدَ ٱلنَّسِيجِ وَٱلسَّدَى. | ١٤ 14 |
And it came to pass when he was asleep, that Dalida took the seven locks of his head, and wove them with the web, and fastened them with the pin into the wall, and she said, The Philistines [are] upon thee, Sampson: and he awoke out of his sleep, and carried away the pin of the web out of the wall.
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «كَيْفَ تَقُولُ أُحِبُّكِ، وَقَلْبُكَ لَيْسَ مَعِي؟ هُوَذَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَدْ خَتَلْتَنِي وَلَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي بِمَاذَا قُوَّتُكَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ». | ١٥ 15 |
And Dalida said to Sampson, How sayest thou, I love thee, when thy heart is not with me? this third time thou hast deceived me, and hast not told me wherein [is] thy great strength.
| وَلَمَّا كَانَتْ تُضَايِقُهُ بِكَلَامِهَا كُلَّ يَوْمٍ وَأَلَحَّتْ عَلَيْهِ، ضَاقَتْ نَفْسُهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ، | ١٦ 16 |
And it came to pass as she pressed him sore with her words continually, and straitened him, that his spirit failed almost to death.
| فَكَشَفَ لَهَا كُلَّ قَلْبِهِ، وَقَالَ لَهَا: «لَمْ يَعْلُ مُوسَى رَأْسِي لِأَنِّي نَذِيرُ ٱللهِ مِنْ بَطْنِ أُمِّي، فَإِنْ حُلِقْتُ تُفَارِقُنِي قُوَّتِي وَأَضْعُفُ وَأَصِيرُ كَأَحَدِ ٱلنَّاسِ». | ١٧ 17 |
Then he told her all his heart, and said to her, A razor has not come upon my head, because I have been a holy [one] of God from my mother's womb; if then I should be shaven, my strength will depart from me, and I shall be weak, and I shall be as all [other] men.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَتْ دَلِيلَةُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَخْبَرَهَا بِكُلِّ مَا بِقَلْبِهِ، أَرْسَلَتْ فَدَعَتْ أَقْطَابَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَقَالَتِ: «ٱصْعَدُوا هَذِهِ ٱلْمَرَّةَ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ كَشَفَ لِي كُلَّ قَلْبِهِ». فَصَعِدَ إِلَيْهَا أَقْطَابُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَأَصْعَدُوا ٱلْفِضَّةَ بِيَدِهِمْ. | ١٨ 18 |
And Dalida saw that he told her all his heart, and she sent and called the princess of the Philistines, saying, Come up yet this once; for he has told me all his heart. And the chiefs of the Philistines went up to her, and brought the money in their hands.
| وَأَنَامَتْهُ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهَا وَدَعَتْ رَجُلًا وَحَلَقَتْ سَبْعَ خُصَلِ رَأْسِهِ، وَٱبْتَدَأَتْ بِإِذْلَالِهِ، وَفَارَقَتْهُ قُوَّتُهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
And Dalida made Sampson sleep upon her knees; and she called a man, and he shaved the seven locks of his head, and she began to humble him, and his strength departed from him.
| وَقَالَتِ: «ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ عَلَيْكَ يَا شَمْشُونُ». فَٱنْتَبَهَ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ وَقَالَ: «أَخْرُجُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَرَّةٍ وَأَنْتَفِضُ». وَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ فَارَقَهُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And Dalida said, The Philistines [are] upon thee, Sampson: and he awoke out of his sleep and said, I will go out as at former times, and shake myself; and he knew not that the Lord was departed from him.
| فَأَخَذَهُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ وَقَلَعُوا عَيْنَيْهِ، وَنَزَلُوا بِهِ إِلَى غَزَّةَ وَأَوْثَقُوهُ بِسَلَاسِلِ نُحَاسٍ. وَكَانَ يَطْحَنُ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلسِّجْنِ. | ٢١ 21 |
And the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he ground in the prison-house.
| وَٱبْتَدَأَ شَعْرُ رَأْسِهِ يَنْبُتُ بَعْدَ أَنْ حُلِقَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And the hair of his head began to grow as before it was shaven.
| وَأَمَّا أَقْطَابُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ فَٱجْتَمَعُوا لِيَذْبَحُوا ذَبِيحَةً عَظِيمَةً لِدَاجُونَ إِلَهِهِمْ وَيَفْرَحُوا، وَقَالُوا: «قَدْ دَفَعَ إِلَهُنَا لِيَدِنَا شَمْشُونَ عَدُوَّنَا». | ٢٣ 23 |
And the chiefs of the Philistines met to offer a great sacrifice to their god Dagon, and to make merry; and they said, God has given into our hand our enemy Sampson.
| وَلَمَّا رَآهُ ٱلشَّعْبُ مَجَّدُوا إِلَهَهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «قَدْ دَفَعَ إِلَهُنَا لِيَدِنَا عَدُوَّنَا ٱلَّذِي خَرَّبَ أَرْضَنَا وَكَثَّرَ قَتْلَانَا». | ٢٤ 24 |
And the people saw him, and sang praises to their god; for our god, [said they], has delivered into our hand our enemy, who wasted our land, and who multiplied our slain.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا طَابَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «ٱدْعُوا شَمْشُونَ لِيَلْعَبَ لَنَا». فَدَعَوْا شَمْشُونَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلسِّجْنِ، فَلَعِبَ أَمَامَهُمْ. وَأَوْقَفُوهُ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَعْمِدَةِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And when their heart was merry, then they said, Call Sampson out of the prison-house, and let him play before us: and they called Sampson out of the prison-house, and he played before them; and they smote him with the palms of their hands, and set him between the pillars.
| فَقَالَ شَمْشُونُ لِلْغُلَامِ ٱلْمَاسِكِ بِيَدِهِ: «دَعْنِي أَلْمِسِ ٱلْأَعْمِدَةَ ٱلَّتِي ٱلْبَيْتُ قَائِمٌ عَلَيْهَا لِأَسْتَنِدَ عَلَيْهَا». | ٢٦ 26 |
And Sampson said to the young man that held his hand, Suffer me to feel the pillars on which the house [rests], and I will stay myself upon them.
| وَكَانَ ٱلْبَيْتُ مَمْلُوءًا رِجَالًا وَنِسَاءً، وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ جَمِيعُ أَقْطَابِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، وَعَلَى ٱلسَّطْحِ نَحْوُ ثَلَاثَةِ آلَافِ رَجُلٍ وَٱمْرَأَةٍ يَنْظُرُونَ لِعْبَ شَمْشُونَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
And the house [was] full of men and woman, and there were all the chiefs of the Philistines, and on the roof [were] about three thousand men and woman looking at the sports of Sampson.
| فَدَعَا شَمْشُونُ ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلرَّبَّ، ٱذْكُرْنِي وَشَدِّدْنِي يَا ٱللهُ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَرَّةَ فَقَطْ، فَأَنْتَقِمَ نَقْمَةً وَاحِدَةً عَنْ عَيْنَيَّ مِنَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ». | ٢٨ 28 |
And Sampson wept before the Lord, and said, O Lord, my lord, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, O God, yet this once, and I will requite one recompense to the Philistines for my two eyes.
| وَقَبَضَ شَمْشُونُ عَلَى ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ ٱلْمُتَوَسِّطَيْنِ ٱللَّذَيْنِ كَانَ ٱلْبَيْتُ قَائِمًا عَلَيْهِمَا، وَٱسْتَنَدَ عَلَيْهِمَا ٱلْوَاحِدِ بِيَمِينِهِ وَٱلْآخَرِ بِيَسَارِهِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
And Sampson took hold of the two pillars of the house on which the house stood, and leaned on them, and laid hold of one with his right hand, and the other with his left.
| وَقَالَ شَمْشُونُ: «لِتَمُتْ نَفْسِي مَعَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ». وَٱنْحَنَى بِقُوَّةٍ فَسَقَطَ ٱلْبَيْتُ عَلَى ٱلْأَقْطَابِ وَعَلَى كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ، فَكَانَ ٱلْمَوْتَى ٱلَّذِينَ أَمَاتَهُمْ فِي مَوْتِهِ، أَكْثَرَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَمَاتَهُمْ فِي حَيَاتِهِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
And Sampson said, Let my wife perish with the Philistines: and he bowed himself mightily; and the house fell upon the princes, and upon all the people that were in it: and the dead whom Sampson slew in his death were more than those whom he slew in his life.
| فَنَزَلَ إِخْوَتُهُ وَكُلُّ بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ وَحَمَلُوهُ وَصَعِدُوا بِهِ وَدَفَنُوهُ بَيْنَ صُرْعَةَ وَأَشْتَأُولَ، فِي قَبْرِ مَنُوحَ أَبِيهِ. وَهُوَ قَضَى لِإِسْرَائِيلَ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً. | ٣١ 31 |
And his brethren and his father's house went down, and they took him; and they went up and buried him between Saraa and Esthaol in the sepulchre of his father Manoe; and he judged Israel twenty years.
