Judges 16
1 One day Samson went to Gaza, where he saw a prostitute and went in to spend the night with her.
At naparoon si Samson sa Gaza, at nakakita roon ng isang patutot at sinipingan.
2 When the Gazites heard that Samson was there, they surrounded that place and lay in wait for him all night at the city gate. They were quiet throughout the night, saying, “Let us wait until dawn; then we will kill him.”
At ibinalita sa mga taga Gaza na sinasabi, Si Samson ay naparito. At kanilang kinulong siya, at binakayan siya buong gabi sa pintuang-bayan, at tahimik buong gabi, na sinasabi, Maghintay tayo hanggang magbukang liwayway, saka natin patayin siya.
3 But Samson lay there only until midnight, when he got up, took hold of the doors of the city gate and both gateposts, and pulled them out, bar and all. Then he put them on his shoulders and took them to the top of the mountain overlooking Hebron.
At si Samson ay humiga hanggang hating gabi, at bumangon sa hating gabi at humawak sa mga pinto ng pintuang-bayan, at sa dalawang haligi, at kapuwa binunot, pati ng sikang, at pinasan sa kaniyang mga balikat, at isinampa sa taluktok ng bundok na nasa tapat ng Hebron.
4 Some time later, Samson fell in love with a woman in the Valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.
At nangyari pagkatapos, na siya'y suminta sa isang babae sa libis ng Sorec, na ang pangala'y Dalila.
5 The lords of the Philistines went to her and said, “Entice him and find out the source of his great strength and how we can overpower him to tie him up and subdue him. Then each one of us will give you eleven hundred shekels of silver.”
At inahon ng mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo ang babae, at sinabi sa kaniya: Dayain mo siya, at tingnan mo kung saan naroon ang kaniyang dakilang kalakasan, at sa anong paraan mananaig kami laban sa kaniya upang aming matalian at mapighati siya: at bibigyan ka ng bawa't isa sa amin ng isang libo't isang daang putol na pilak.
6 So Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell me the source of your great strength and how you can be tied up and subdued.”
At sinabi ni Dalila kay Samson, Saysayin mo sa akin, isinasamo ko sa iyo, kung saan naroon ang iyong dakilang kalakasan, at kung paanong matatalian ka upang pighatiin ka.
7 Samson told her, “If they tie me up with seven fresh bowstrings that have not been dried, I will become as weak as any other man.”
At sinabi ni Samson sa kaniya, Kung tatalian nila ako ng pitong sariwang yantok na kailan man ay hindi natuyo, ay hihina ako, at ako'y magiging gaya ng alinmang tao.
8 So the lords of the Philistines brought her seven fresh bowstrings that had not been dried, and she tied him up with them.
Nang magkagayo'y nagdala ang mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo sa kaniya ng pitong sariwang yantok na hindi pa natutuyo, at ipinagtali niya sa kaniya.
9 While the men were hidden in her room, she called out, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” But he snapped the bowstrings like a strand of yarn seared by a flame. So the source of his strength remained unknown.
Ngayo'y may mga bakay na sa silid sa loob. At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Narito na sa iyo ang mga Filisteo, Samson. At kaniyang pinatid ang mga yantok, na tulad sa taling estopa pagka nadidikitan ng apoy. Sa gayo'y hindi naalaman ang kaniyang lakas.
10 Then Delilah said to Samson, “You have mocked me and lied to me! Now please tell me how you can be tied up.”
At sinabi ni Dalila kay Samson, Narito, pinaglaruan mo ako, at pinagbulaanan mo ako: isinasamo ko ngayon sa iyo na saysayin mo sa akin kung paano matatalian ka.
11 He replied, “If they tie me up with new ropes that have never been used, I will become as weak as any other man.”
At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Kung tatalian lamang nila ako ng mga bagong lubid na hindi pa nagagamit, ay hihina nga ako at magiging gaya ng alinmang tao.
12 So Delilah took new ropes, tied him up with them, and called out, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” But while the men were hidden in her room, he snapped the ropes off his arms like they were threads.
Sa gayo'y kumuha si Dalila ng mga bagong lubid, at itinali sa kaniya, at sinabi sa kaniya, Narito na sa iyo ang mga Filisteo, Samson. At ang mga bakay ay nangasa silid sa loob. At pawang pinatid niya sa kaniyang mga bisig na parang sinulid.
13 Then Delilah said to Samson, “You have mocked me and lied to me all along! Tell me how you can be tied up.” He told her, “If you weave the seven braids of my head into the web of a loom and tighten it with a pin, I will become as weak as any other man.”
At sinabi ni Dalila kay Samson, Hanggang dito'y pinaglaruan mo ako, at pinagbulaanan mo ako: saysayin mo sa akin kung paanong matatalian ka. At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Kung iyong hahabihin ang pitong tirintas sa aking ulo ng hinabing kayo.
14 So while he slept, Delilah took the seven braids of his hair and wove them into the web. Then she tightened it with a pin and called to him, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” But he awoke from his sleep and pulled out the pin with the loom and the web.
At kaniyang pinagtibay ng tulos, at sinabi sa kaniya, Narito na sa iyo ang mga Filisteo, Samson. At siya'y gumising sa kaniyang pagkakatulog, at binunot ang tulos ng panghabi, at ang hinabi.
15 “How can you say, ‘I love you,’” she asked, “when your heart is not with me? This is the third time you have mocked me and failed to reveal to me the source of your great strength!”
At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Bakit nasasabi mo, na iniibig kita, sa bagay ang iyong puso ay hindi sumasaakin? pinaglaruan mo akong makaitlo, at hindi mo isinaysay sa akin kung saan nagpapahinga ang iyong dakilang kalakasan.
16 Finally, after she had pressed him daily with her words and pleaded until he was sick to death,
At nangyari, nang kaniyang igiit araw araw, at kaniyang ipilit sa kaniya, na ang kaniyang loob ay naligalig sa ikamamatay.
17 Samson told her all that was in his heart: “My hair has never been cut, because I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaved, my strength will leave me, and I will become as weak as any other man.”
At isinaysay niya sa kaniya ang kaniyang buong taglayin sa kaniyang puso, at sinabi sa kaniya, Walang pangahit na nagdaan sa aking ulo; sapagka't ako'y naging Nazareo sa Dios mula sa tiyan ng aking ina: kung ako'y ahitan, hihiwalay nga sa akin ang aking lakas, at ako'y hihina, at magiging gaya ng alinmang tao.
18 When Delilah realized that he had revealed to her all that was in his heart, she sent this message to the lords of the Philistines: “Come up once more, for he has revealed to me all that is in his heart.” Then the lords of the Philistines came to her, bringing the money in their hands.
At nang makita ni Dalila na sinaysay sa kaniya, ang buong taglayin niya sa kaniyang puso, ay nagsugo siya at tinawag ang mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo, na sinasabi, Ahunin pa ninyong minsan, sapagka't sinaysay niya sa akin ang buong taglayin niya sa kaniyang puso. Nang magkagayo'y inahon siya ng mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo, at nagdala ng salapi sa kanilang kamay.
19 And having lulled him to sleep on her lap, she called a man to shave off the seven braids of his head. In this way she began to subdue him, and his strength left him.
At pinatulog niya siya sa kaniyang mga tuhod; at nagpatawag siya ng isang lalake, at inahit ang pitong tirintas sa kaniyang ulo; at pinasimulan niyang pighatiin siya, at ang kaniyang lakas ay nawala.
20 Then she called out, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” When Samson awoke from his sleep, he thought, “I will escape as I did before and shake myself free.” But he did not know that the LORD had departed from him.
At sinabi niya, Narito na sa iyo ang mga Filisteo, Samson. At siya'y gumising sa kaniyang pagkakatulog, at sinabi, Ako'y lalabas na gaya ng dati, at ako'y magpupumiglas. Nguni't hindi niya talos na ang Panginoo'y humiwalay sa kaniya.
21 Then the Philistines seized him, gouged out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, where he was bound with bronze shackles and forced to grind grain in the prison.
At hinuli ng mga Filisteo, at dinukit ang kaniyang mga mata; at inilusong nila sa Gaza, at tinalian siya ng mga pangaw na tanso; at siya'y gumiling sa bilangguan.
22 However, the hair of his head began to grow back after it had been shaved.
Gayon ma'y nagpasimulang tumubo uli ang buhok ng kaniyang ulo, pagkatapos na siya'y maahitan.
23 Now the lords of the Philistines gathered together to offer a great sacrifice to their god Dagon. They rejoiced and said, “Our god has delivered Samson our enemy into our hands.”
At nagpipisan ang mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo upang maghandog ng isang dakilang hain kay Dagon na kanilang dios, at mangagalak: sapagka't kanilang sinabi, Ibinigay ng ating dios si Samson na ating kaaway sa ating kamay.
24 And when the people saw him, they praised their god, saying: “Our god has delivered into our hands our enemy who destroyed our land and multiplied our dead.”
At nang makita siya ng bayan, ay kanilang pinuri ang kanilang dios: sapagka't kanilang sinabi, Ibinigay ng ating dios sa ating kamay ang ating kaaway, at ang mangwawasak sa ating lupain, na pumatay sa marami sa atin.
25 And while their hearts were merry, they said, “Call for Samson to entertain us.” So they called Samson out of the prison to entertain them. And they stationed him between the pillars.
At nangyari, nang masayahan ang kanilang puso, na kanilang sinabi, Tawagin si Samson, upang siya'y ating mapaglaruan. At tinawag nga si Samson mula sa bilangguan; at siya'y pinaglaruan nila. At kanilang inilagay sa pagitan ng mga haligi:
26 Samson said to the servant who held his hand, “Lead me where I can feel the pillars supporting the temple, so I can lean against them.”
At sinabi ni Samson sa bata na umaakay sa kaniya sa kamay, Ipahipo mo sa akin ang mga haliging pumipigil ng bahay, upang aking mangahiligan.
27 Now the temple was full of men and women; all the lords of the Philistines were there, and about three thousand men and women were on the roof watching Samson entertain them.
Ang bahay nga ay puno ng mga lalake at babae, at ang lahat ng mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo ay nandoon; at sa bubungan ay may tatlong libong lalake at babae, na nanonood samantalang pinaglalaruan si Samson.
28 Then Samson called out to the LORD: “O Lord GOD, please remember me. Strengthen me, O God, just once more, so that with one vengeful blow I may pay back the Philistines for my two eyes.”
At tumawag si Samson sa Panginoon, at sinabi, Oh Panginoong Dios, idinadalangin ko sa iyo na alalahanin mo ako, at idinadalangin ko sa iyong palakasin mo ako, na minsan na lamang, Oh Dios, upang maiganti kong paminsan sa mga Filisteo ang aking dalawang mata.
29 And Samson reached out for the two central pillars supporting the temple. Bracing himself against them with his right hand on one pillar and his left hand on the other,
At si Samson ay pumigil sa dalawang gitnang haligi na pumipigil ng bahay, at isinuhay sa mga yaon, ang isa sa kaniyang kanang kamay, at ang isa'y sa kaniyang kaliwa.
30 Samson said, “Let me die with the Philistines.” Then he pushed with all his might, and the temple fell on the lords and all the people in it. So in his death he killed more than he had killed in his life.
At sinabi ni Samson, Mamatay nawa akong kasama ng mga Filisteo, At iniubos niya ang kaniyang buong lakas; at ang bahay ay bumagsak sa mga pangulo, at sa buong bayan na nandoon sa loob. Sa gayo'y ang nangamatay na kaniyang pinatay sa kaniyang kamatayan ay higit kay sa pinatay niya sa kaniyang kabuhayan.
31 Then Samson’s brothers and his father’s family came down, carried him back, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of his father Manoah. And he had judged Israel twenty years.
Nang magkagayo'y lumusong ang kaniyang mga kapatid at ang buong sangbahayan ng kaniyang ama, at kinuha siya, at iniahon siya, at inilibing siya sa pagitan ng Sora at Esthaol sa libingan ni Manoa na kaniyang ama. At siya'y naghukom sa Israel na dalawang pung taon.
