Sudcov 15
1 Stalo se pak po několika dnech, v čas žně pšeničné, že chtěje navštíviti Samson ženu svou, a přinésti s sebou kozlíka, řekl: Vejdu k ženě své do pokoje. A nedopustil mu otec její vjíti.
But after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, Samson visited his wife with a young goat. He said, “I will go in to my wife’s room.” But her father wouldn’t allow him to go in.
2 I řekl otec její: Domníval jsem se zajisté, že ji máš v nenávisti, protož dal jsem ji tovaryši tvému. Zdaliž není sestra její mladší pěknější než ona? Nechať jest tedy tvá místo oné.
Her father said, “I most certainly thought that you utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Isn’t her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please, take her instead.”
3 I řekl jim Samson: Nebuduť já potom vinen Filistinským, když jim zle učiním.
Samson said to them, “This time I will be blameless in the case of the Philistines when I harm them.”
4 Odšed tedy Samson, nalapal tři sta lišek, a vzav pochodně, obrátil jeden ocas k druhému, a dal vše jednu pochodni mezi dva ocasy do prostředka.
Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the middle between every two tails.
5 Potom zapálil ty pochodně, a pustil do obilí Filistinských, a popálil, jakž sžaté tak nesžaté, i vinice i olivoví.
When he had set the torches on fire, he let them go into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks and the standing grain, and also the olive groves.
6 I řekli Filistinští: Kdo je to učinil? Jimž odpovědíno: Samson zeť Tamnejského, proto že vzal ženu jeho a dal ji tovaryši jeho. Tedy přišedše Filistinští, spálili ji ohněm i otce jejího.
Then the Philistines said, “Who has done this?” They said, “Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife and given her to his companion.” The Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire.
7 Tedy řekl jim Samson: Ač jste učinili tak, však až se lépe vymstím nad vámi, teprv přestanu.
Samson said to them, “If you behave like this, surely I will take revenge on you, and after that I will cease.”
8 I zbil je na hnátích i na bedrách porážkou velikou, a odšed, usadil se na vrchu skály Etam.
He struck them hip and thigh with a great slaughter; and he went down and lived in the cave in Etam’s rock.
9 Pročež vytáhli Filistinští, a rozbivše stany proti Judovi, rozložili se až do Lechi.
Then the Philistines went up, encamped in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi.
10 Muži pak Juda řekli: Proč jste vytáhli proti nám? I odpověděli: Vytáhli jsme, abychom svázali Samsona, a učinili jemu tak, jako on nám učinil.
The men of Judah said, “Why have you come up against us?” They said, “We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to us.”
11 Tedy vyšlo tři tisíce mužů Juda k vrchu skály Etam, a řekli Samsonovi: Nevíš-liž, že panují nad námi Filistinští? Pročež jsi tedy nám to učinil? I odpověděl jim: Jakž mi učinili, tak jsem jim učinil.
Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cave in Etam’s rock, and said to Samson, “Don’t you know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?” He said to them, “As they did to me, so I have done to them.”
12 Řekli také jemu: Přišli jsme, abychom tě svázali a vydali v ruku Filistinským. Tedy odpověděl jim Samson: Přisáhněte mi, že vy se na mne neoboříte.
They said to him, “We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines.” Samson said to them, “Swear to me that you will not attack me yourselves.”
13 Tedy mluvili jemu, řkouce: Nikoli, jediné tuze svížíce, vydáme tě v ruku jejich, ale nezabijeme tě. I svázali ho dvěma provazy novými, a svedli jej s skály.
They spoke to him, saying, “No, but we will bind you securely and deliver you into their hands; but surely we will not kill you.” They bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock.
14 Kterýž když přišel až do Lechi, Filistinští radostí křičeli proti němu. Přišel pak na něj Duch Hospodinův, a učiněni jsou provazové, kteříž byli na rukou jeho, jako niti lněné, když v ohni hoří, i spadli svazové s rukou jeho.
When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him. Then the LORD’s Spirit came mightily on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire; and his bands dropped from off his hands.
15 Tedy našel čelist osličí ještě vlhkou, a vztáh ruku svou, vzal ji a pobil ní tisíc mužů.
He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, put out his hand, took it, and struck a thousand men with it.
16 Protož řekl Samson: Èelistí osličí hromadu jednu, nýbrž dvě hromady, čelistí osličí zbil jsem tisíc mužů.
Samson said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps; with the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men.”
17 A když přestal mluviti, povrhl čelist z ruky své, a nazval to místo Ramat Lechi.
When he had finished speaking, he threw the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath Lehi.
18 Žíznil pak velice, i volal k Hospodinu a řekl: Ty jsi učinil skrze ruce služebníka svého vysvobození toto veliké, nyní pak již žízní umru, aneb upadnu v ruku těch neobřezaných.
He was very thirsty, and called on the LORD and said, “You have given this great deliverance by the hand of your servant; and now shall I die of thirst, and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?”
19 Tedy otevřel Bůh skálu v Lechi, i vyšly z ní vody, a napil se; i okřál, a jako ožil. Protož nazval jméno její studnice vzývajícího, kteráž jest v Lechi až do dnešního dne.
But God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out of it. When he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived. Therefore its name was called En Hakkore, which is in Lehi, to this day.
20 Soudil pak Izraele za času Filistinských dvadceti let.
He judged Israel twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
