Judges 16
1 He also went into Gaza. And there he saw a harlot woman, and he entered to her.
И иде Сампсон в Газу, и виде тамо жену блудницу и вниде к ней.
2 And when the Philistines had heard of this, and it had become well known among them, that Samson had entered the city, they surrounded him, placing guards at the gate of the city. And there they were keeping watch all night in silence, so that, in the morning, they might kill him as he was going out.
И поведаша Газяном, глаголюще: прииде Сампсон семо. И обыдоша и подседоша ему всю нощь у врат градных, и утаишася всю нощь, глаголюще: дондеже осветает утро, и убием его.
3 But Samson slept until the middle of the night, and rising up from there, he took both doors from the gate, with their posts and bars. And laying them upon his shoulders, he carried them to the top of the hill that looks toward Hebron.
И спа Сампсон до полунощи: и воста в полунощи, и восхити двери у врат града со обеими вереями, и подя оныя с заворою, и возложи я на рамена своя, и вознесе я на верх горы, яже пред лицем Хеврона, и положи их тамо.
4 After these things, he loved a woman who was living in the valley of Sorek. And she was called Delilah.
И бысть по сем, и возлюби жену от водотечи Сориховы: имя же ей Далида.
5 And the leaders of the Philistines went to her, and they said: “Deceive him, and learn from him wherein lies his great strength, and how we may be able to overcome him and to impose restraints on him. And if you will do this, each one of us will give you one thousand one hundred silver coins.”
И взыдоша к ней князи иноплеменничи и рекоша ей: прельсти его, и виждь, в чем есть крепость его великая, и чим преможем его, и свяжем его, яко смирити его: и мы тебе дадим кийждо тысящу и сто сребреников.
6 Therefore, Delilah said to Samson, “Tell me, I beg you, wherein lies your very great strength, and with what might you be bound, so that you could not break free?”
И рече Далида к Сампсону: повеждь ми ныне, в чем крепость твоя (тако) великая, и чим свяжешися и смиришися?
7 And Samson answered her, “If I will be bound with seven cords, made of sinews not yet dry, but still damp, I will be weak like other men.”
И рече ей Сампсон: аще свяжут мя седмию тятивами сырыми неистлевшими, и изнемогу, и буду яко един от человек.
8 And the princes of the Philistines brought to her seven cords, such as he had described. And she bound him with these.
И принесоша ей князи от иноплеменник седмь тятив мокрых неистлевших, и связа его ими:
9 And so, those hiding in ambush with her, in the bedroom, were expecting the end of the matter. And she cried out to him, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” And he broke the cords, as one would break a thread of flax, twisted for cutting and singed by fire. And so it was not known wherein lay his strength.
и подсада ему седяше в храмине. И рече ему: иноплеменницы на тя, Сампсоне. И расторже тятивы, аки бы кто расторгнул соскание изгребий, егда коснется ему огнь: и не уведася крепость его.
10 And Delilah said to him: “Behold, you have mocked me, and you have spoken a falsehood. But at least now, tell me with what you may be bound.”
И рече Далида к Сампсону: се, прельстил еси мя, глаголя ко мне лжу: ныне убо повеждь ми, чим свяжешися?
11 And he answered her, “If I will be bound with new cords, which have never been used, I will be weak and like other men.”
И рече к ней: аще вяжуще свяжут мя ужы новыми, имиже не делано, и изнемогу, и буду яко един от человек.
12 Again, Delilah tied him with these, and she cried out, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” For an ambush had been prepared in the bedroom. But he broke the bindings like the filaments of a web.
И взя Далида ужы новы и связа его ими, и рече ему: иноплеменницы на тя, Сампсоне. Подсада же седяше в храмине. И расторже я от руку своею аки нить.
13 And Delilah spoke to him again: “How long will you deceive me and tell me falsehoods? Reveal with what you ought to be bound.” And Samson responded to her, “If you weave the seven locks of my head with a loom, and if you tie these around a spike and fix it to the ground, I will be weak.”
И рече Далида к Сампсону: даже до ныне прельщал мя еси и глаголал ко мне лжу: повеждь ми убо, чим свяжешися? И рече ей: аще сплетеши седмь плениц влас главы моея спрядением и вбиеши колом в стену, и буду немощен яко един от человек.
14 And when Delilah had done this, she said to him, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson.” And arising from sleep, he withdrew the spike with the hairs and the weaving.
И успи Далида его на коленех своих, и бысть внегда уснути ему, взя Далида седмь плениц влас главы его и сплете спрядением и вонзе колом в стену, и рече: иноплеменницы на тя, Сампсоне. И возбну от сна своего и исторже кол сплетением из стены, и не уведася крепость его.
15 And Delilah said to him: “How can you say that you love me, when your soul is not with me? You have lied to me on three occasions, and you are not willing to reveal wherein lies your very great strength.”
И рече к нему Далида: како глаголеши, возлюбих тя, и сердце твое несть со мною? Се, третие прельстил еси мя, и не поведал еси мне, в чем крепость твоя великая.
16 And when she had been very troublesome to him, and over many days had continually stayed nearby, giving him no time to rest, his soul was faint, and he was weary, even unto death.
И бысть егда стужи ему словесы своими по вся дни, и убеди его, и изнеможе даже до умертвия.
17 Then disclosing the truth of the matter, he said to her: “Iron has never been drawn across my head, for I am a Nazirite, that is, I have been consecrated to God from my mother’s womb. If my head will be shaven, my strength will depart from me, and I will be faint and will be like other men.”
И поведа ей все сердце свое, и рече к ней: железо не взыде на главу мою, яко назорей есмь аз Господу от утробы матере моея: аще убо обриюся, отступит от мене крепость моя, и изнемогу, и буду якоже вси человецы.
18 Then, seeing that he had confessed to her his whole soul, she sent to the leaders of the Philistines and ordered: “Come up just once more. For now he has opened his heart to me.” And they went up, taking with them the money that they had promised.
И виде Далида, яко поведа ей все сердце свое, посла и призва князи иноплеменничи, глаголющи: взыдите еще единою, яко поведа ми все сердце свое. И взыдоша к ней вси князи иноплеменничи, и принесоша сребро в руках своих.
19 But she made him sleep upon her knees, and recline his head upon her bosom. And she called a barber, and he shaved his seven locks of hair. And she began to push him away, and to repel him from herself. For immediately his strength departed from him.
И успи Далида Сампсона на коленех своих: и призва стригача, и остриже седмь плениц влас главы его: и нача смирятися, и отступи крепость его от него.
20 And she said, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” And awaking from sleep, he said in his mind, “I will break away and shake myself free, just as I did before.” For he did not know that the Lord had withdrawn from him.
И рече Далида: иноплеменницы на тя, Сампсоне. И возбудися от сна своего и рече: изыду якоже и прежде, и отрясуся. И не разуме, яко Господь отступи от него.
21 And when the Philistines had seized him, they immediately plucked out his eyes. And they led him, bound in chains, to Gaza. And enclosing him in a prison, they made him work a millstone.
И яша его иноплеменницы, и избодоша ему очи, и введоша его в Газу, и оковаша его путы медяны: и бяше меля в храмине темничней.
22 And now his hair began to grow back.
И начаша власы главы его расти по острижении.
23 And the leaders of the Philistines convened as one, so that they might offer great sacrifices to Dagon, their god. And they feasted, saying, “Our god has delivered our enemy, Samson, into our hands.”
И князи иноплеменничи собрашася пожрети жертву велику Дагону богу своему и возвеселитися, и рекоша: предаде бог наш в руки нашя Сампсона врага нашего.
24 Then, too, the people, seeing this, praised their god, and they said the same, “Our god has delivered our adversary into our hands: the one who destroyed our land and who killed very many.”
И видеша его людие, и похвалиша бога своего, яко реша: предаде бог наш в руки нашя врага нашего, опустошившаго землю нашу, и иже умножи язвенных наших.
25 And rejoicing in their celebration, having now taken food, they instructed that Samson be called, and that he be mocked before them. And having been brought from prison, he was mocked before them. And they caused him to stand between two pillars.
И бысть егда возблажа сердце их, и рекоша: призовите Сампсона из дому темничнаго, и да играет пред нами. И призваша Сампсона из дому темничнаго, и играша пред ними: и заушаху его, и поставиша его между столпы.
26 And he said to the boy who was guiding his steps, “Permit me to touch the pillars, which support the entire house, and to lean against them, so that I may rest a little.”
И рече Сампсон ко юноши держащему его за руку: остави мене, да осяжу столпы, на нихже дом сей утвержден есть, и опруся на них. Юноша же сотвори тако.
27 Now the house was full of men and women. And all the leaders of the Philistines were there, as well as about three thousand persons, of both sexes, on the roof and in the upper level of the house, who were watching Samson being mocked.
Дом же бяше полн мужей и жен, и тамо вси князи иноплеменничи: на крове же том до трех тысящ мужей и жен, зряще ругаемаго Сампсона.
28 Then, calling upon the Lord, he said, “O Lord God remember me, and restore to me now my former strength, O my God, so that I may avenge myself against my enemies, and so that I may receive one vengeance for the deprivation of my two eyes.”
И воззва Сампсон ко Господу и рече: Адонаи Господи, Господи Сил, помяни мя ныне, и укрепи мя еще единою, Боже, да воздам мщение едино за два ока моя Филистимом.
29 And taking hold of both the pillars, on which the house rested, and holding one with his right hand and the other with his left,
И объя Сампсон оба столпа средния, на нихже храмина бяше утверждена, и опреся на них, держя един рукою десною, а другий левою.
30 he said, “May my life die with the Philistines.” And when he had shaken the pillars strongly, the house fell upon all the leaders, and the rest of the multitude who were there. And he killed many more in his death than he had killed before in his life.
И рече Сампсон: да умрет душа моя со иноплеменники. И преклонися крепостию, и паде храмина на князи и на вся люди иже в ней: и бысть мертвых, ихже умертви Сампсон при смерти своей, множае неже ихже умертви в животе своем.
31 Then his brothers and all his relatives, going down, took his body, and they buried it between Zorah and Eshtaol, in the burying place of his father, Manoah. And he judged Israel for twenty years.
И снидоша братия его и весь дом отца его, и взяша его: и взыдоша, и погребоша его между Сараи и между Есфаолом во гробе Маноя отца его. И сей суди Израилю лет двадесять. (и воста по Сампсоне Емегар сын Енань, и уби от иноплеменников шесть сот мужей кроме скота, и спасе и он Израиля.)
