Sudcov 14
1 Šel pak Samson do Tamnata, a uzřel tam ženu ze dcer Filistinských.
Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines.
2 A navrátiv se, oznámil otci svému a mateři své, řka: Viděl jsem ženu v Tamnata ze dcer Filistinských, protož nyní vezměte mi ji za manželku.
He came up, and told his father and his mother, saying, “I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines. Now therefore get her for me as my wife.”
3 I řekl mu otec jeho a matka jeho: Zdali není mezi dcerami bratří tvých a ve všem lidu mém ženy, že sobě vzíti chceš manželku z Filistinských neobřezaných? Odpověděl Samson otci svému: Tuto vezměte mi, nebť mi se líbí.
Then his father and his mother said to him, “Is not there a woman among your brothers’ daughters, or among all my people, that you go to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines?” Samson said to his father, “Get her for me, for she pleases me well.”
4 Otec pak jeho a matka jeho nevěděli, by to od Hospodina bylo, a že příčiny hledá od Filistinských; nebo toho času panovali Filistinští nad Izraelem.
But his father and his mother did not know that it was of the LORD; for he sought an occasion against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines ruled over Israel.
5 Tedy šel Samson a otec jeho i matka jeho do Tamnata. Když pak přišli k vinicím Tamnatským, a aj, lev mladý řvoucí potkal se s ním.
Then Samson went down to Timnah with his father and his mother, and came to the vineyards of Timnah; and behold, a young lion roared at him.
6 I sstoupil na něj Duch Hospodinův, a roztrhl lva, jako by roztrhl kozelce, ačkoli nic neměl v rukou svých. A neoznámil otci ani mateři své, co učinil.
The LORD’s Spirit came mightily on him, and he tore him as he would have torn a young goat with his bare hands, but he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.
7 Přišed tedy, mluvil s ženou tou, a líbila se Samsonovi.
He went down and talked with the woman, and she pleased Samson well.
8 Navracuje se pak po několika dnech, aby ji pojal, uchýlil se, aby pohleděl na mrtvého lva, a aj, v těle jeho byl roj včel a med.
After a while he returned to take her, and he went over to see the carcass of the lion; and behold, there was a swarm of bees in the body of the lion, and honey.
9 A vybrav jej na ruce své, šel cestou a jedl; a přišed k otci svému a mateři své, dal jim, i jedli. Ale nepověděl jim, že z mrtvého lva vyňal ten med.
He took it into his hands, and went on, eating as he went. He came to his father and mother and gave to them, and they ate, but he did not tell them that he had taken the honey out of the lion’s body.
10 Tedy šel otec jeho k ženě té, a učinil tam Samson hody, nebo tak činívali mládenci.
His father went down to the woman; and Samson made a feast there, for the young men used to do so.
11 Když pak jej viděli tam, vybrali z sebe třidceti tovaryšů, aby byli při něm.
When they saw him, they brought thirty companions to be with him.
12 I řekl jim Samson: Vydám vám pohádku, kterouž jestliže mi právě vysvětlíte za sedm dní těchto hodů a uhodnete, dám vám třidceti čechlů a třidcatero roucho proměnné.
Samson said to them, “Let me tell you a riddle now. If you can tell me the answer within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing;
13 Jestliže mi pak nebudete moci uhodnouti, dáte vy mně třidceti čechlů a třidcatero roucho proměnné. Kteříž odpověděli jemu: Vydej pohádku svou, ať ji slyšíme.
but if you cannot tell me the answer, then you shall give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing.” They said to him, “Tell us your riddle, that we may hear it.”
14 I řekl jim: Z zžírajícího vyšel pokrm, a z silného vyšla sladkost. I nemohli uhodnouti pohádky té za tři dni.
He said to them, “Out of the eater came out food. Out of the strong came out sweetness.” They could not in three days declare the riddle.
15 Stalo se pak dne sedmého, (nebo byli řekli ženě Samsonově: Namluv muže svého, ať nám vyloží tu pohádku, ať nespálíme tě i domu otce tvého ohněm. Proto-liž, abyste našeho statku dostali, pozvali jste nás? Či co?
On the seventh day, they said to Samson’s wife, “Entice your husband, that he may declare to us the riddle, lest we burn you and your father’s house with fire. Have you called us to impoverish us? Is not that so?”
16 I plakala žena Samsonova na něj, řkuci: Jistě nenávidíš mne a nemiluješ mne; pohádku jsi vydal synům lidu mého, a mně jí nechceš povědíti. Kterýž řekl jí: Hle, otci mému a mateři neoznámil jsem, a tobě mám povědíti?
Samson’s wife wept before him, and said, “You just hate me, and do not love me. You have told a riddle to the children of my people, and have not told it to me.” He said to her, “Behold, I have not told my father or my mother, so why should I tell you?”
17 I plakala na něj do sedmého dne, v nichž měli hody). Dne tedy sedmého pověděl jí, nebo trápila jej; kterážto oznámila pohádku synům lidu svého.
She wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted; and on the seventh day, he told her, because she pressed him severely; and she told the riddle to the children of her people.
18 Muži tedy města toho dne sedmého, prvé než slunce zapadlo, řekli jemu: Co sladšího nad med, a co silnějšího nad lva? Kterýž řekl jim: Byste byli neorali mou jalovičkou, neuhodli byste pohádky mé.
The men of the city said to him on the seventh day before the sun went down, “What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?” He said to them, “If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have found out my riddle.”
19 I sstoupil na něj Duch Hospodinův, a šel do Aškalon, a pobil z nich třidceti mužů. A vzav loupeže jejich, dal šaty proměnné těm, jenž uhodli pohádku, a rozhněvav se velmi, odšel do domu otce svého.
The LORD’s Spirit came mightily on him, and he went down to Ashkelon and struck thirty men of them. He took their plunder, then gave the changes of clothing to those who declared the riddle. His anger burned, and he went up to his father’s house.
20 Žena pak Samsonova dostala se jednomu z tovaryšů jeho, kteréhož on byl k sobě připojil.
But Samson’s wife was given to his companion, who had been his friend.
