< Judges 14 >

1 Now Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah, of the daughters of the Philistines;
शिमशोन तल तिम्नामा गए, र त्यहाँ पलिश्तीहरूका छोरीहरूमध्‍ये एक जना स्‍त्रीलाई तिनले देखे ।
2 And when he came back he said to his father and mother, I have seen a woman in Timnah, of the daughters of the Philistines: get her now for me for my wife.
जब तिनी फर्के, तब तिनले आफ्ना बुबा र आमालाई भने, “मैले तिम्नामा पलिश्तीहरूका छोरीहरूमध्‍ये एक जना स्‍त्रीलाई देखें । तिनलाई मेरो पत्‍नी हुनलाई ल्याइदिनुहोस् ।”
3 Then his father and mother said to him, Is there no woman among the daughters of your relations or among all my people, that you have to go for your wife to the Philistines, who are without circumcision? But Samson said to his father, Get her for me, for she is pleasing to me.
तिनका बुबा र आमाले तिनलाई भने, “के तिम्रा नातेदारहरूका छोरीहरू वा हाम्रा मानिसहरूका माझमा कोही स्‍त्री छैन र? के तिमी खतना नभएका पलिश्तीहरूबाट आफ्नो निम्ति पत्‍नी लिन जाँदैछौ?” शिमशोनले आफ्ना बुबालाई भने, “तिनलाई मेरो निम्ति ल्याइदिनुहोस्, किनकि म जब तिनलाई हेर्छु, मलाई खुशी लाग्‍छ ।”
4 Now his father and mother had no knowledge that this was the purpose of the Lord, who had the destruction of the Philistines in mind. Now the Philistines at that time were ruling over Israel.
तर तिनका बुबा र आमालाई यो कुरा परमप्रभुबाट आएको हो भन्‍ने कुरा थाहा थिएन, किनकि उहाँले पलिश्तीहरूसँग झगडा ल्याउने योजना गर्नुभएको थियो (किनकि त्यो समयमा पलिश्तीहरूले इस्राएलमाथि शासन गरिरहेको थियो) ।
5 Then Samson went down to Timnah (and his father and his mother, ) and came to the vine-gardens of Timnah; and a young lion came rushing out at him.
तब शिमशोन आफ्ना बुबा र आमासँग तल तिम्नामा गए, र तिनीहरू तिम्नाको दाखबारीमा गए । अनि हेर, त्‍यहाँ जवान सिंहहरूमध्‍ये एउटा माथि आयो र तिनीमाथि गर्जन थाल्यो ।
6 And the spirit of the Lord came on him with power, and, unarmed as he was, pulling the lion in two as one might do to a young goat, he put him to death; (but he said nothing to his father and mother of what he had done.)
परमप्रभुका आत्मा अचानक तिनीमाथि आउनुभयो, र तिनले एउटा सानो पाठोलाई झैं तुरुन्‍तै त्यो सिंहलाई च्यातिदिए, र तिनको हातमा तिनीसित कुनै कुरा पनि थिएन । तर आफूले जे गरेका थिए, त्‍यो तिनले आफ्ना बुबा वा आमालाई भनेनन् ।
7 So he went down and had talk with the woman; and she was pleasing to Samson.
तिनी गए र त्यो स्‍त्रीसँग कुरा गरे, र जब शिमशोनले उनलाई हेरे, तब उनले तिनलाई खुसी पारिन् ।
8 Then after a time he went back to take her; and turning from the road to see the dead body of the lion, he saw a mass of bees in the body of the lion, and honey there.
केही दिनपछि जब तिनी उनलाई विवाह गर्न भनेर फर्के, तब त्‍यो सिंहको सिनु हेर्नलाई तिनी त्‍यतातिर गए । अनि हेर, तिनले छाडेका त्यो सिंहको सिनुमा मौरीको झुण्ड र मह थियो ।
9 And he took the honey in his hand, and went on, tasting it on the way; and when he came to his father and mother he gave some to them; but did not say that he had taken the honey from the body of the lion.
तिनले आफ्ना हातमा मह लिए र तिनी जाँदा खाँदै गए । जब तिनी आफ्ना बुबा र आमाकहाँ आए, तिनले अलिकति मह तिनीहरूलाई पनि दिए, र तिनीहरूले खाए । तर तिनले त्यो मह सिंहको सिनुबाट लिएका थिए भन्‍ने कुरा तिनले भनेनन् ।
10 Then Samson went down to the woman, and made a feast there, as was the way among young men.
शिमशोनका बुबा तल त्यो स्‍त्री भएको ठाउँमा गए, र शिमशोनले त्यहाँ एउटा भोज दिए, किनकि त्‍यो दुलहाले गर्नैपर्ने प्रचलन थियो ।
11 And he took thirty friends, and they were with him.
स्‍त्रीका नातेदारहरूले तिनलाई देख्‍नेबित्तिकै, तिनीहरूले आफ्ना तिस जना साथी तिनीसँग बस्‍नलाई ल्याए ।
12 And Samson said, Now I have a hard question for you: if you are able to give me the answer before the seven days of the feast are over, I will give you thirty linen robes and thirty changes of clothing;
शिमशोनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “म तिमीहरूलाई एउटा अड्को थाप्छु । तिमीहरूमध्ये कसैले भोजको सात दिनभित्रमा अड्को फुकाएर त्यसको उत्तर मलाई भन्‍न सक्यौ भने, म तिमीहरूलाई तिसवटा सुतीका लबेदा र तिस थान लुगाहरू दिनेछु ।
13 But if you are not able to give me the answer, then you will have to give me thirty linen robes and thirty changes of clothing. And they said to him, Put your hard question and let us see what it is.
तर तिमीहरूले मलाई उत्तर भन्‍न सकेनौ भने, तिमीहरूले मलाई तिसवटा सुतीका लबेदा र तिस थान लुगाहरू दिनुपर्नेछ ।” तिनीहरूले उनलाई भने, “हामीलाई तिम्रो अड्को भन, ताकि हामी त्‍यो सनौं ।”
14 And he said, Out of the taker of food came food, and out of the strong came the sweet. And at the end of three days they were still not able to give the answer.
तिनले उनीहरूलाई भने, “खानेबाट केही खाने कुरो निस्क्यो, बलियोबाट केही गुलियो कुरो निस्क्यो ।” तर तिनका पाहुनाहरूले तिन दिनमा त्यसको उत्तर पाउन सकेनन् ।
15 So on the fourth day they said to Samson's wife, Get from your husband the answer to his question by some trick or other, or we will have you and your father's house burned with fire; did you get us here to take all we have?
चौथो दिनमा तिनीहरूले शिमशोनकी पत्‍नीलाई भने, “तिम्रो पतिलाई छल गर ताकि तिनले हामीलाई त्यो अड्कोको उत्तर बताऊन्, नत्रता हामी तिमी र तिम्रो बुबाको घरलाई आगो लगाइदिनेछौं । के हामीलाई गरिब बनाउनलाई तिमीले हामीलाई यहाँ बोलाएकी हौ?”
16 Then Samson's wife, weeping over him, said, Truly you have no love for me but only hate; you have put a hard question to the children of my people and have not given me the answer. And he said to her, See, I have not given the answer even to my father or my mother; am I to give it to you?
शिमशोनकी पत्‍नी तिनको सामु रुन थालिन् । उनले भनिन्, “तपाईंले मलाई घृणा मात्र गर्नुहुन्छ! तपाईंले मलाई प्रेम गर्नुहुन्‍न । तपाईंले मेरा केही मानिसलाई अड्को थाप्नुभएको छ, तर तपाईंले मलाई उत्तर भन्‍नुभएको छैन ।” शिमशोनले त्यसलाई भने, “यता हेर, मैले मेरो बुबा वा आमालाई त भनेको छैनँ, त के म तिमीलाई भनूँ?”
17 And all the seven days of the feast she went on weeping over him; and on the seventh day he gave her the answer, because she gave him no peace; and she sent word of it to the children of her people.
भोजको सातौं दिनसम्म त्यो रोई । सातौं दिनमा तिनले उनलाई उत्तर भनिदिए किनभने उनले तिनलाई धेरै दबाब दिइन् । उनले आफ्ना नातेदारहरूलाई उत्तर भनिदिई ।
18 Then on the seventh day, before he went into the bride's room, the men of the town said to him, What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said to them, If you had not been ploughing with my cow you would not have got the answer to my question.
सातौं दिनमा सूर्य अस्ताउनअगि सहरका मानिसले तिनलाई भने, “महभन्दा गुलियो के हुन्छ र? सिंहभन्दा बलियो के हुन्छ र?” शिमशोनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले मेरो कोरेलीलाई नजोतेका भए, तिमीहरूले मेरो अड्कोको उत्तर पाउनेथिएनौ ।”
19 And the spirit of the Lord came rushing on him, and he went down to Ashkelon and, attacking thirty men there, took their clothing from them, and gave it to the men who had given the answer to his hard question. Then, full of wrath, he went back to his father's house.
तब परमप्रभुको आत्मा अचानक शक्तिको साथमा शिमशोनमाथि आउनुभयो । शिमशोन तल अश्कलोनमा गए र तिनीहरूका तिस जना मानिसहरूलाई मारे । तिनले तिनीहरूका लुटका सामान लिए, र त्यो अड्को फुकाउने मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका लुगाहरू दिए । रिसले चूर भएर तिनी आफ्ना बुबाका घरमा गए ।
20 But Samson's wife was given to the friend who had been his best man.
शिमशोनको साथमा बसेको मित्रलाई तिनको पत्‍नी दिएर पठाइयो ।
