< Thutan Vaihom Ho 14 >

1 Nikhat hi Samson Timnah khopia agachesuh leh, Philistine nungah khat ahin mudoh in ahi.
And Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines.
2 In na ahung kile phatnin aman anule apa kommah, “Timnah kho’ah Philistine nungah khat kamun kadei lheh jengin ahi, amakhu kajidingin eiga puipeh lhonnin” ati.
And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said: 'I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines; now therefore get her for me to wife.'
3 Anule apan anel lhonnin, “Eiho phunga numei umlou hija ahilouleh Israelte jouse lah a nakichenpi thei umlou hella hitam?” Amanin aseilhonnin, “Ipi dinga cheptanlou Philistine holah a ji naga kipui dingham?” atilhonne. Ahinlah Samson nin apa kommah “Neiga puipeh in, amanu khun kalung atoh lhehjenge” ati.
Then his father and his mother said unto him: 'Is there never a woman among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines?' And Samson said unto his father: 'Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well.'
4 Hiche thilsoh hi Samson chu Philistine te toh akidouna dinga Pathen thilgon ahilam chu anuleh apan ahet lhonlou ahi. Ajeh chu hichea pat’a hi Israelte chu Philistine te thaneina noija umma ahiuve.
But his father and his mother knew not that it was of the LORD; for he sought an occasion against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines had rule over Israel.
5 Hitichun Samson chu anuleh apatoh Timnah kho a achesuh un ahilah Timnah kho a lengpithei lei kom aphah uchun keipi bahkai golkhatnin pohphungin ahin ngih in ahi.
Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnah, and came to the vineyards of Timnah; and, behold, a young lion roared against him.
6 Hiche pettah chun Pakai Lhagao chun Samson chu pohphung in ahin hatdoh sah in ahileh, Samson in akhutkeo seh in akha ahin kaopeh in, min kelnou abolna bangin aboljengin ahi. Ahinlah aman thilsoh chu anuleh apa ana seipeh pon ahi.
And the spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as one would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand; but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.
7 Samson chu Timnah khopi alhunphat in hiche nungahnu chutoh akihoulim lhonnin ahileh amanun Samson chu alunglhaisah lheh jengin ahi.
And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.
8 Khonungin amanu chu kichenpi dingin Timnah kho a chun aga kilekitnin ahileh lampam’a chun keipi bahkai thilongchu agahven ahileh hiche thilong sunga chun khoiju bom anakaijin ahi.
And after a while he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion; and, behold, there was a swarm of bees in the body of the lion, and honey.
9 Aman khoiju chu akhut in themkhat agah khendohin achepum pumin anen ahi. Aman anule apajong themkhat apen ahile amanin jong anelhon’in ahi. Ahinla aman keipi bahkai thilong sunga khoiju alahdoh chu aseipeh lhonpon ahil
And he scraped it out into his hands, and went on, eating as he went, and he came to his father and mother, and gave unto them, and they did eat; but he told them not that he had scraped the honey out of the body of the lion.
10 Apan kichenna dinga tohgon achaiding konna akisahlel laitah chun, Samson in Timnah kho a golvah khat abollin ahi, hichu hiche phatlaija khangthah ho chonna ngaichu achepi ahi.
And his father went down unto the woman; and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.
11 Mounu nulepa chun Samson chu amu phatnin aloi agoldingin khopi sunga konchun golhang somthum agonpeh in ahi.
And it came to pass, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.
12 Samson’in amaho koma chun, “Nangho kommah thulem khat seijingting nanghon hiche golvah ni sagi sungahi naseidoh theijuva ahileh keiman nangho tupat ponnem somthum leh golvah von somthum kapeh diu ahi,” ati.
And Samson said unto them: 'Let me now put forth a riddle unto you; if ye can declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of raiment;
13 “Ahinlah nanghon naseidoh theilou uleh nanghon tupat ponnem somthum leh golvah von somthum keima neipeh diu ahi,” ati. Amahon aphai kanom uve hiche thulem chu ipiham neiseipeh tauvin atin ahi.
but if ye cannot declare it me, then shall ye give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of raiment.' And they said unto him: 'Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it.'
14 Hitichun aman aseitan ahi, “Mi nepa a kon in nehthei themkhat ahungdoh e, mihatpa a kon in alhumkei themkhat ahung doh e” ati. Nithum sungin amahon hetdohtei ding ago uvin ahin ahedoh joupouvin ahi.
And he said unto them: Out of the eater came forth food, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could not in three days declare the riddle.
15 Anili channin Samson jinu kommachun, “Hiche thulem hi najipa a kon in hetdoh tei hingon achuti louleh napa in hi nangpuma kahal lhah thadiu ahi. Nanghon hiche golvah a hi suhjum dinga neikou uham?” atiuve.
And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson's wife: 'Entice thy husband, that he may declare unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father's house with fire; have ye called us hither to impoverish us?'
16 Hijeh chun Samson komma chun ajunu in mitlhi pummin aseijin, “Nanghin neilungset ahipoi, neivetda joh ahibouve! Nangin kamite thulem khat nasei khummin ahinlah keikommah aledoh nading neiseipeh poi” ati. Aman adonbutnin, “Hiche ledohna appa kanule appa jeng jong kaseipeh lou ahi, nang komma iti kaseidoh dingham?” ati.
And Samson's wife wept before him, and said: 'Thou dost but hate me, and lovest me not; thou hast put forth a riddle unto the children of my people, and wilt thou not tell it me?' And he said unto her: 'Behold, I have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell thee?'
17 Hitichun golvah sunga chun amanun neiseipeh teijin tin akomma akap jengin ahi. Ajonan nisagi channa in aman aledohna chu aseipehtan ahi, ajeh chu amanun phat tinna asuhboi jing jeng ahi. Hichun amanun gollhangho komma chun aseipeh tan ahi.
And she wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted; and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she pressed him sore; and she told the riddle to the children of her people.
18 Hijouchun nisagi channi nilhum masangin khopi mihochu ahungun “Khoiju sanga lhumjo ipi umding ham? Keipi bahkai sanga hatjo epi umding ham?” atiuve. Samson in adonbutnin,” Kabongla namanchah louvu hileh kathulem chu hoiya nahet diuham!” ati.
And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down: What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said unto them: If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.
19 Hiche jouchun Samson chunga Pakai Lhagao chu thanei tah in achung’ah ahung chutan, ama Ashkelon khopia chun achesuh in, mi somthum aga thatnin aneihou ahin chommin athulem seidoh mihochu akitepna ponho chu agapetan ahi. Ahinla Samson chu hiche chungchanga chun alung phamolheh jengin ainlanga akile in anule apatoh aum khommun ahi.
And the spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and smote thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave the changes of raiment unto them that declared the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.
20 Hijeh chun ajinu chu Samson golphapen pa kommah anapeu vin ana kichensah tauvin ahi.
But Samson's wife was given to his companion, whom he had had for his friend.
