Dommer 15
1 Efter nogen Tids Forløb, i Hvedehøstens Tid, besøgte Samson sin Hustru og havde et Gedekid med, og han sagde: »Lad mig gaa ind i Kammeret til min Hustru!« Men hendes Fader tillod ham det ikke,
And it was from days in [the] days of [the] harvest of wheat and he visited Samson wife his with a kid of goats and he said let me go into wife my the chamber towards and not he permitted him father her to go.
2 men sagde: »Jeg tænkte for vist, at du havde faaet Uvilje mod hende, derfor gav jeg hende til ham, der var din Brudesvend; men hendes yngre Søster er smukkere end hun, lad hende blive din Hustru i Søsterens Sted!«
And he said father her certainly I thought that certainly you hated her and I gave her to companion your ¿ not [is] sister her young good more than her let her belong please to you in place of her.
3 Da sagde Samson til dem: »Denne Gang er jeg sagesløs over for Filisterne, naar jeg gør dem Fortræd!«
And he said to them Samson I will be free this time from [the] Philistines for [am] about to do I with them harm.
4 Saa gik Samson hen og fangede 300 Ræve; derpaa tog han Fakler, bandt Halerne sammen to og to og fastgjorde en Fakkel midt imellem;
And he went Samson and he captured three hundred foxes and he took torches and he turned tail to tail and he put a torch one between [the] two the tails in the middle.
5 saa tændte han Faklerne, slap Rævene løs i Filisternes Korn og stak Ild baade paa Negene og Kornet paa Roden, ogsaa paa Vingaarde og Oliventræer.
And he kindled fire on the torches and he sent [them] among [the] standing grain of [the] Philistines and it burned up from [the] heap of sheaves and unto [the] standing grain and unto [the] vineyard of olive tree[s].
6 Da Filisterne spurgte, hvem der havde gjort det, blev der sagt: »Det har Samson, Timnitens Svigersøn, fordi han tog hans Hustru og gav hende til hans Brudesvend.« Da gik Filisterne op og brændte hende og hendes Faders Hus inde.
And they said [the] Philistines who? did he do this [thing] and they said Samson [the] son-in-law of the Timnite for he has taken wife his and he has given her to companion his and they went up [the] Philistines and they burned her and father her with fire.
7 Men Samson sagde til dem: »Naar I bærer eder saaledes ad, under jeg mig ikke Ro, før jeg faar hævnet mig paa eder!«
And he said to them Samson if you will do! like this that except I have avenged myself on you and after I will cease.
8 Saa slog han dem sønder og sammen med vældige Slag, og derpaa steg han ned i Fjeldkløften ved Etam og tog Ophold der.
And he struck them leg with thigh a defeat great and he went down and he dwelt in [the] cleft of [the] rock of Etam.
9 Filisterne drog nu op og slog Lejr i Juda og spredte sig ved Lehi.
And they went up [the] Philistines and they encamped in Judah and they were spread out at Lehi.
10 Da sagde Judas Mænd: »Hvorfor er I draget op imod os?« Og de svarede: »Vi er draget herop for at binde Samson og handle mod ham, som han har handlet mod os!«
And they said [the] man of Judah why? have you come up on us and they said to bind Samson we have come up to do to him just as he did to us.
11 Saa steg 3000 Mand fra Juda ned til Fjeldkløften ved Etam og sagde til Samson: »Ved du ikke, at Filisterne har Magten over os? Hvad er det dog, du har voldt os?« Han svarede dem: »Som de har handlet mod mig, har jeg handlet mod dem!«
And they went down three thousand man from Judah to [the] cleft of [the] rock of Etam and they said to Samson ¿ not do you know that [are] ruling over us [the] Philistines and what? this have you done to us and he said to them just as they did to me so I have done to them.
12 Men de sagde til ham: »Vi er kommet ned for at binde dig og overgive dig til Filisterne!« Da sagde Samson til dem: »Sværg mig til, at I ikke vil slaa mig ihjel!«
And they said to him to bind you we have come down to give you in [the] hand of [the] Philistines and he said to them Samson swear to me lest you should fall! on me you.
13 De svarede ham: »Nej, vi vil Kun binde dig og overgive dig til dem; slaa dig ihjel vil vi ikke!« Saa bandt de ham med to nye Reb og førte ham op af Fjeldkløften.
And they said to him saying In-deed certainly we will bind you and we will give you in hand their and certainly not we will kill you and they bound him with two ropes new and they brought up him from the rock.
14 Men da han kom til Lehi, og Filisterne hilste hans Komme med Jubelraab, kom HERRENS Aand over ham, og Rebene om hans Arme blev som svedne Sytraade, og hans Baand faldt skørnet af hans Hænder.
He [was] coming to Lehi (and [the] Philistines *L(abh)*) they shouted to meet him and it rushed on him [the] spirit of Yahweh and they became the ropes which [were] on arms his like flax which people have burned with fire and they dropped off bonds his from on hands his.
15 Og da han fik Øje paa en frisk Æselkæbe, rakte han sin Haand ud, greb den og huggede 1000 Mand ned med den.
And he found a jawbone of a donkey fresh and he stretched out hand his and he took it and he struck down with it a thousand man.
16 Da sagde Samson: »Med en Æselkæbe har jeg flaaet dem sønder og sammen, med en Æselkæbe har jeg fældet 1000 Mand!«
And he said Samson with [the] jawbone of the donkey a heap two heaps with [the] jawbone of the donkey I struck down a thousand man.
17 Med disse Ord kastede han Kæbebenet fra sig, og derfor kaldte man Stedet Ramat Lehi.
And it was when finished he to speak and he threw the jawbone from hand his and he called the place that Ramath Lehi.
18 Og da han var meget tørstig, raabte han til HERREN og sagde: »Ved din Tjeners Haand har du skaffet os denne vældige Sejr, skal jeg da nu dø af Tørst og falde i de uomskaarnes Haand?«
And he was thirsty very and he called out to Yahweh and he said you you have given by [the] hand of servant your the victory great this and now [must] I die with thirst and I fall in [the] hand of the uncircumcised [men]?
19 Da aabnede Gud Lavningen i Lehi, og der vældede Vand frem deraf; og da han havde drukket, fik han sin Livskraft igen. Derfor kaldte man denne Kilde En-Hakkore; den findes i Lehi endnu den Dag i Dag.
And he split open God the deep hollow which [is] at Lehi and they came out from it waters and he drank and it returned spirit his and he lived there-fore - he called name its En Hakkore which [is] at Lehi until the day this.
20 Han var Dommer i Israel i Filistertiden i tyve Aar.
And he judged Israel in [the] days of [the] Philistines twenty year[s].
