Judges 14
1 One day Samson went down to Timnah, where he saw a young Philistine woman.
Simmalog ni Samsom idiay Timna, ket sadiay, nakitana ti maysa a babai, maysa kadagiti annak dagiti Filisteo.
2 So he returned and told his father and mother, “I have seen a daughter of the Philistines in Timnah. Now get her for me as a wife.”
Idi nagawid isuna, imbagana iti ama ken inana, “Nakitak ti maysa a babai idiay Timna, maysa kadagiti annak a babbai dagiti Filisteo. Ita, alaenyo isuna para kaniak tapno agbalin nga asawak.”
3 But his father and mother replied, “Can’t you find a young woman among your relatives or among any of our people? Must you go to the uncircumcised Philistines to get a wife?” But Samson told his father, “Get her for me, for she is pleasing to my eyes.”
Ngem kinuna ti ama ken inana kenkuana, “Awan kadi ti babai kadagiti annak dagiti kabagiam, wenno kadagiti amin a tattaotayo? Mangalaka kadi iti asawaem manipud kadagiti saan a nakugit a Filisteo?” Kinuna ni Samson iti amana, “Alaem isuna para kaniak, ta tunggal makitak isuna, maay-ayoak kenkuana.”
4 (Now his father and mother did not know this was from the LORD, who was seeking an occasion to move against the Philistines; for at that time the Philistines were ruling over Israel.)
Ngem saan nga ammo ti ama ken inana a nagtaud kenni Yahweh daytoy a banag, ta kayatna a mangparnuay iti riri kadagiti Filisteo (ta dagiti Filisteo ti mangiturturay iti Israel iti dayta a tiempo).
5 Then Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother and came to the vineyards of Timnah. Suddenly a young lion came roaring at him,
Kalpasanna, kadua ni Samson ti ama ken inana a simmalog idiay Timna, ket nakagtengda kadagiti kaubasan ti Timna. Ket rimmuar sadiay ti maysa a bumaro a leon nga agngerngernger kenkuana.
6 and the Spirit of the LORD came powerfully upon him, and he tore the lion apart with his bare hands as one would tear a young goat. But he did not tell his father or mother what he had done.
Immay a dagus kenkuana ti Espiritu ni Yahweh, ket rinangrangkayna ti leon a kas kalaka iti panangrangkayna iti bassit a kalding, ket awan ti iggemna. Ngem saanna nga imbaga iti ama wenno inana ti inaramidna.
7 Then Samson continued on his way down and spoke to the woman, because she was pleasing to his eyes.
Napanna kinasarita ti babai, ket idi kinitana ti babai, naay-ayo ni Samson kenkuana.
8 When Samson returned later to take her, he left the road to see the lion’s carcass, and in it was a swarm of bees, along with their honey.
Kalpasan ti sumagmamano nga aldaw idi nagsubli ni Samson tapno asawaenna isuna, simmiasi isuna tapno kitaenna ti bangkay ti leon. Ket adda maysa a pangen dagiti ayukan ken diro iti nabatbati a bagi ti leon.
9 So he scooped some honey into his hands and ate it as he went along. And when he returned to his father and mother, he gave some to them and they ate it. But he did not tell them that he had taken the honey from the lion’s carcass.
Inakuyna ti diro babaen kadagiti imana ket mangmangan bayat a magmagna. Idi nakagteng iti ayan ti ama ken iti inana, intedna ti dadduma kadagitoy, ket nanganda. Ngem saanna nga imbaga nga innalana ti diro iti nabatbati a bagi ti leon.
10 Then his father went to visit the woman, and Samson prepared a feast there, as was customary for the bridegroom.
Simmalog ti ama ni Samson iti ayan ti babai, ket nagparambak ni Samson sadiay, ta daytoy ti kaugalian dagiti agtutubo a lallaki.
11 And when the Philistines saw him, they selected thirty men to accompany him.
Apaman a nakita dagiti kabagian ti babai isuna, nangiyegda kenkuana iti tallopulo a gagayyemda a mangkadua kenkuana.
12 “Let me tell you a riddle,” Samson said to them. “If you can solve it for me within the seven days of the feast, I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty sets of clothes.
Kinuna ni Samson kadakuada, “Adda burburtiak kadakayo. No adda kadakayo ti makaibaga kaniak iti sungbat daytoy kabayatan ti pito nga aldaw iti panagrambak, mangtedakto iti tallopulo a lino a kagay ken tallopulo a pagan-anay.”
13 But if you cannot solve it, you must give me thirty linen garments and thirty sets of clothes.” “Tell us your riddle,” they replied. “Let us hear it.”
Ngem no saanyo a maibaga kaniak ti sungbat, ket ikkandakto iti tallopulo a lino a kagay ken tallopulo a pagan-anay.” Kinunada kenkuana, “Ibagam kadakami ti burburtiam, tapno mangngegmi daytoy.”
14 So he said to them: “Out of the eater came something to eat, and out of the strong came something sweet.” For three days they were unable to explain the riddle.
Kinunana kadakuada, “Manipud iti mangmangan, adda maysa a banag a makan; manipud iti napigsa, adda maysa a banag a nasam-it.” Ngem saan a napugtoan dagiti sangailina ti sungbat iti las-ud ti tallo nga aldaw.
15 So on the fourth day they said to Samson’s wife, “Entice your husband to explain the riddle to us, or we will burn you and your father’s household to death. Did you invite us here to rob us?”
Iti maika-uppat nga aldaw, kinunada iti asawa ni Samson, “Sikapam ti asawam tapno ibagana kadakami ti sungbat ti burburtia, ta no saan puorandaka ken ti balay ti amam. Inawisdakami kadi ditoy tapno papanglawendakami?”
16 Then Samson’s wife came to him, weeping, and said, “You hate me! You do not really love me! You have posed to my people a riddle, but have not explained it to me.” “Look,” he said, “I have not even explained it to my father or mother, so why should I explain it to you?”
Ket rinugian ti asawa ni Samson ti agsangit iti sangoananna: kinunana, “Kagurguranak! Saannak nga ay-ayaten. Nangibagaka iti maysa a burburtia iti sumagmamano kadagiti tattaok, ngem saanmo nga imbaga kaniak ti sungbatna.” Kinuna ni Samson kenkuana, “Kitaem, no saanko nga imbaga iti ama wenno iti inak, rumberng kadi nga ibagak kenka?”
17 She wept the whole seven days of the feast, and finally on the seventh day, because she had pressed him so much, he told her the answer. And in turn she explained the riddle to her people.
Nagsangsangit isuna kabayatan ti pito nga aldaw a kabayag ti panagrambakda. Iti maikapito nga aldaw, imbaga ni Samson ti sungbat iti asawana gapu ta kasta unay ti panangpilitna kenkuana. Imbaga ti asawana ti sungbat kadagiti kabagian dagiti tattaona.
18 Before sunset on the seventh day, the men of the city said to Samson: “What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion?” So he said to them: “If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have solved my riddle!”
Ket kinuna dagiti lallaki iti siudad kenni Samson iti maikapito nga aldaw sakbay a lumnek ti init, “Ania ti nasamsam-it ngem iti diro? Ania ti napigpigsa ngem ti leon?” Kinuna ni Samson kadakuada, “No saanyo a pinagarado ti bakak, saanyo koma a naammoan ti sungbat iti burburtiak.”
19 Then the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, killed thirty of their men, took their apparel, and gave their clothes to those who had solved the riddle. And burning with anger, Samson returned to his father’s house,
Ket kellaat nga immay kenni Samson ti pannakabalin ti Espiritu ni Yahweh. Simmalog ni Samson idiay Askelon ket pinatayna ti tallopulo a lallaki kadagiti tattao. Innalana ti nasamsamda, ket intedna dagiti pagan-anay kadagiti nakasungbat iti burburtiana. Kasta unay ti ungetna ket simmang-at isuna iti balay ti amana.
20 and his wife was given to one of the men who had accompanied him.
Ket naited ti asawana iti nasinged a gayyemna.
