< Judges 15 >

1 Later on, at the time of the wheat harvest, Samson took a young goat and went to visit his wife. “I want to go to my wife in her room,” he said. But her father would not let him enter.
Ergasii yeroo qamadiin walitti qabamutti Saamsoon korma reʼee xinnaa isaa fudhatee niitii isaa ilaaluu dhaqe. Innis, “Ani daree niitii koo nan seena” jedhe. Abbaan niitii isaa garuu eeyyamuufii dide.
2 “I was sure that you thoroughly hated her,” said her father, “so I gave her to one of the men who accompanied you. Is not her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please take her instead.”
Innis, “Ani waan ati ishee jibbiteerta jedhee dhugumaan amaneef miinjee keetti ishee heerumsiiseera; obboleettiin ishee quxisuun, ishee caalaa bareedduu mitii? Qooda sanaa ishee fudhadhu” jedheen.
3 Samson said to them, “This time I will be blameless in doing harm to the Philistines.”
Saamsoon deebisee, “Ani yeroo kanatti yoo miidhaa kam iyyuu Filisxeemota irraan gaʼe itti hin gaafatamu” isaaniin jedhe.
4 Then Samson went out and caught three hundred foxes. And he took torches, turned the foxes tail-to-tail, and fastened a torch between each pair of tails.
Kanaafuu inni achii baʼee waangota dhibba sadii qabee lama lamaan eegee isaanii walitti hidhe. Eegee lamaan lamaan isaanii irrattis guca guduunfe;
5 Then he lit the torches and released the foxes into the standing grain of the Philistines, burning up the piles of grain and the standing grain, as well as the vineyards and olive groves.
ibiddas itti qabsiisee qamadii Filisxeemotaa keessatti waangota sana gad lakkise. Midhaan haamamee fi kan hin haamaminitti akkasumas iddoo dhaabaa wayiniitii fi ejersaa guggube.
6 “Who did this?” the Philistines demanded. “It was Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite,” they were told. “For his wife was given to his companion.” So the Philistines went up and burned her and her father to death.
Yeroo Filisxeemonni, “Eenyutu waan kana godhe?” jedhanii gaafatanitti, “Saamsoon dhirsa intala namicha Tiimnaahi sanaatu sababii niitiin isaa miinjee isaatti jalaa heerumsiifamteef waan kana godhe” jedhamee isaanitti himame. Kanaafuu Filisxeemonni ol baʼanii niitii Saamsoonii fi abbaa ishee gubanii ajjeesan.
7 And Samson told them, “Because you have done this, I will not rest until I have taken vengeance upon you.”
Saamsoonis, “Erga isin akkas gootanii ani hamma haaloo koo baafadhutti isin hin dhiisu” isaaniin jedhe.
8 And he struck them ruthlessly with a great slaughter, and then went down and stayed in the cave at the rock of Etam.
Akka malees isaan dhaʼee hedduu isaanii galaafate. Ergasii gad buʼee holqa kattaa Eexaam keessa jiraate.
9 Then the Philistines went up, camped in Judah, and deployed themselves near the town of Lehi.
Filisxeemonnis ol baʼanii naannoo Lehiitti faffacaʼanii Yihuudaa keessa qubatan.
10 “Why have you attacked us?” said the men of Judah. The Philistines replied, “We have come to arrest Samson and pay him back for what he has done to us.”
Namoonni Yihuudaas, “Isin maaliif nu waraanuuf dhuftan?” jedhanii isaan gaafatan. Isaanis deebisanii, “Nu Saamsoon hiinee waan inni nu godhe sana isa godhuuf dhufne” jedhan.
11 In response, three thousand men of Judah went to the cave at the rock of Etam, and they asked Samson, “Do you not realize that the Philistines rule over us? What have you done to us?” “I have done to them what they did to me,” he replied.
Ergasiis namoonni kuma sadii Yihuudaadhaa gara holqa Eexaamitti gad buʼanii Saamsooniin, “Ati maali nu goote? Akka Filisxeemonni nu bulchan hin beektuu?” jedhan. Innis, “Ani waanuma isaan na godhan sana isaan irratti nan godhe” jedhee deebise.
12 But they said to him, “We have come down to arrest you and hand you over to the Philistines.” Samson replied, “Swear to me that you will not kill me yourselves.”
Isaanis, “Nu si hiinee dabarsinee Filisxeemotatti si kennuuf dhufne” jedhaniin. Saamsoon immoo, “Isin mataan keessan akka na hin ajjeefne naa kakadhaa” jedhe.
13 “No,” they answered, “we will not kill you, but we will tie you up securely and hand you over to them.” So they bound him with two new ropes and led him up from the rock.
Isaanis, “Tole, nu si hiinee dabarsinee harka isaaniitti si kennina malee ofii keenyaan siʼi hin ajjeefnu” jedhaniin. Kanaafuu funyoo haaraa lamaan isa hidhanii holqa keessaa isa baasan.
14 When Samson arrived in Lehi, the Philistines came out shouting against him. And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him. The ropes on his arms became like burnt flax, and the bonds broke loose from his hands.
Yeroo inni Lehiitti dhiʼaatettis Filisxeemonni iyyaa gara isaa dhufan. Hafuurri Waaqayyoos jabinaan isa irra buʼe. Funyoon harki isaa ittiin hidhamee ture sun akka quncee talbaa kan ibidda keessa buʼee taʼe; hidhaan isaas harka isaa irraa ciccite.
15 He found the fresh jawbone of a donkey, reached out his hand and took it, and struck down a thousand men.
Innis lafee haʼoo harree haaraa isaa argatee hiixatee fudhate; ittiinis dhaʼee nama kuma tokko fixe.
16 Then Samson said: “With the jawbone of a donkey I have piled them into heaps. With the jawbone of a donkey I have slain a thousand men.”
Kana irrattis Saamsoon, “Ani lafee haʼoo harree tokkoon, wal irra isaan nan tuule; lafee haʼoo harree tokkootiin, namoota kuma tokko nan ajjeese” jedhe.
17 And when Samson had finished speaking, he cast the jawbone from his hand; and he named that place Ramath-lehi.
Innis erga waan kana dubbatee fixatee booddee lafee haʼoo harree sana achi darbate; iddoon sunis Raamaat Leehii jedhame.
18 And being very thirsty, Samson cried out to the LORD, “You have accomplished this great deliverance through Your servant. Must I now die of thirst and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?”
Innis sababii akka malee dheeboteef, “Ati moʼannaa guddaa akkanaa garbicha keetiif kenniteerta. Egaa ani amma dheebuudhaan duʼee harka warra dhagna hin qabatinii keessan buʼaa?” jechuudhaan Waaqayyoon waammate.
19 So God opened up the hollow place in Lehi, and water came out of it. When Samson drank, his strength returned, and he was revived. That is why he named it En-hakkore, and it remains in Lehi to this day.
Waaqnis boolla Lehii keessa jiru dhoosee bishaan baase. Saamsoonis yommuu bishaan sana dhugetti humni isaa deebiʼeefii jabaate. Kanaafuu burqaan suni Een Haqoree jedhamee moggaafame. Innis hamma harʼaatti achuma Leehiitti argama.
20 And Samson judged Israel for twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
Saamsoon bara Filisxeemotaa keessa waggaa digdama Israaʼeloota bulche.
