Judges 15
1 And it came to pass after a time, in the days of wheat harvest, that Sampson visited his wife with a kid, and said, I will go in to my wife even into the chamber: but her father did not suffer him to go in.
Hathnukkhu hoi canga lahun navah, Samson ni hmaeca a sin teh, a yu a pâtam. Ahni ni, ka yu koe roe hanelah rakhan thung na kâen sak haw atipouh. Hatei, a na pa ni kâen han pasoung pouh hoeh.
2 And her father spoke, saying, I said that you did surely hate her, and I gave her to one of your friends: [is] not her younger sister better than she? let her be to you instead of her.
A na pa ni, ka canu hah na pahnawt toe telah ka pouk dawkvah, na hui koe yo ka poe toe. A nawngha teh ahni hlak a mei ahawi nahoehmaw. A hmau e yueng lah a nawngha ma lat lawih atipouh.
3 And Sampson said to them, Even for once am I guiltless with regard to the Philistines, in that I do mischief amongst them.
Samson ni ahnimouh koe, atuteh, Filistinnaw heh patawnae puenghoi ka poe nakunghai, kai teh pathoe han awm hoeh toe telah atipouh.
4 And Sampson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch between two tails, and fastened it.
Hahoi teh, Samson a cei teh, Asuihu 300 touh a man teh, a mai dawk hmaito koung a kawm pouh.
5 And he set fire to the torches, and sent [the foxes] into the corn of the Philistines; and every thing was burnt from the threshing floor to the standing corn, and even to the vineyard and olives.
Hmaitonaw hah hmai a toteh, Filistinnaw e law um a yawng sak teh, cang hai thoseh, cabongnaw hai thoseh, misur takha, olive takhanaw hai thoseh koung a kak pouh.
6 And the Philistines said, Who [has done] these things? and they said, Sampson the son-in-law of the Thamnite, because he has taken his wife, and given her to one of his friends; and the Philistines went up, and burnt her and her father's house with fire.
Filistinnaw ni, het heh apimaw ka sak ati awh. Ahnimouh ni Timnah e cava Samson ni doeh ati awh. A yu a lawp awh teh, a hui a poe pouh awh dawkvah ati awh. Hahoi teh, Filistinnaw ni hote napui hoi a na pa im hmai ngeng a sawi pouh awh.
7 And Sampson said to them, Though you may have dealt thus with her, verily I will be avenged of you, and afterwards I will cease.
Samson ni hettelah na sak awh dawkvah, nangmouh koe let na pathung awh roeroe han. Hathnukkhu doeh duem kaawm ti atipouh.
8 And he struck them leg on thigh [with] a great overthrow; and went down and lived in a cave of the rock Etam.
A cusin awh teh, buet touh hai hlout laipalah he a thei. Hahoi ka yawng ni teh Etam lungha kâko dawk a kâhro awh.
9 And the Philistines went up, and encamped in Juda, and spread themselves abroad in Lechi.
Hahoi Filistinnaw teh a takhang awh teh, Judah kho vah a roe awh. Lehi vah tueng a kâyat awh.
10 And the men of Juda said, Why are you come up against us? and the Philistines said, We are come up to bind Sampson, and to do to him as he has done to us.
Hahoi Judahnaw ni bangkongmaw kaimouh tuk hanlah na tho awh atipouh awh. Ahnimouh ni, Samson man hane hoi, kaimouh ka tak dawk a sak e patetlah a tak dawk sak hanelah ka tho awh atipouh.
11 And the three thousand men of Juda went down to the hole of the rock Etam, and they said to Sampson, Know you not that the Philistines rule over us? and what [is] this [that] you have done to us? and Sampson said to them, As they did to me, so have I done to them.
Hottelah, Judahnaw 3,000 touh Etam lungha kâko dawk a yawng awh teh, Samson koevah, Filistinnaw ni na uk awh e heh na panuek awh hoeh maw telah ati. Ahni ni, ahnimouh koe kai ka tak dawk a sak e patetlah ka sak pouh e doeh telah ati.
12 And they said to him, We are come down to bind you to deliver you into the hand of the Philistines: and Sampson said to them, Swear to me that you will not fall upon me yourselves.
Hatei, ahnimouh ni, ama koe Filistinnaw kut dawk na poe nahanelah, nang man hanelah, ka tho atipouh awh. Na thet mahoeh tie lawk kâkam ei telah atipouh awh.
13 And they spoke to him, saying, Nay, but we will only bind you fast, and deliver you into their hand, and will by no means kill you: and they bound him with two new ropes, and brought him from that rock.
Ahnimouh ni na thet awh mahoeh. Hatei, kacaklah na katek awh vaiteh, a kut dawk na poe awh han telah atipouh awh. Hahoi tangron katha yung hni touh hoi a katek awh teh, lungsong koe hoi a takhangkhai awh.
14 And they came to Lechi: and the Philistines shouted, and ran to meet him: and the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him, and the ropes that were upon his arms became as tow which is burnt with fire; and his bonds were consumed from off his hands.
Lehi a pha awh toteh, Filistinnaw a tho awh teh, a hramki sin awh. BAWIPA e Muitha a thakaawmpounge hah a tak dawk a pha teh, a kut dawk kateknae ruinaw pueng teh hmai hoi thoukthouk ka kang e patetlah a kut dawk hoi pak a ca pouh.
15 And he found the jaw-bone of an ass that had been cast away, and he put forth his hand and took it, and struck with it a thousand men.
La e a kamhru katha a pâphawng teh, hot hoi Filistinnaw 1,000 touh a thei.
16 And Sampson said, With the jaw-bone of an ass I have utterly destroyed them, for with the jaw-bone of an ass I have struck a thousand men.
Samson ni telah ati. La e kamhru hoi thouk ka mawk teh, La kamhru hoi tami 1,000 touh ka thei toe.
17 And it came to pass when he ceased speaking, that he cast the jaw-bone out of his hand; and he called that place the Lifting of the jaw-bone.
Hottelah lawk a dei hnukkhu, la e kamhru a sin e hah a tâkhawng teh, hote hmuen teh Ramathlehi telah ati awh.
18 And he was very thirsty, and wept before the Lord, and said, You have been well pleased to grant this great deliverance by the hand of your servant, and new shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?
Hahoi, tui hroung a kahran teh, BAWIPA hah a kaw. Nang ni na san e kut heh hno lahoi lentoe e lahoi na rungngang. Atu tui kahran lawi meimei ka due toe. Vuensom ka a hoeh naw e kut dawk maw kai ka kâpoe han toung.
19 And God broke open a hollow place in the jaw, and there came thence water, and he drank; and his spirit returned and he revived: therefore the name of the fountain was called 'The well of the invoker,' which is in Lechi, until this day.
Cathut ni Lehi hmuen koe a kavi pouh teh, tui a tâco. Hote a nei toteh, a kâha teh a tha bout akawi.
20 And he judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years.
Hottelah, Filistinnaw senah, Isarelnaw hah kum 20 touh a uk.
