< Judges 15 >

1 And it came to pass after a time, in the days of the wheat-harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a kid of the goats. And he said, I will go in to my wife into the chamber; but her father would not suffer him to go in.
Tok kutu, ke pacl in kosrani lun wheat, Samson el us nani fusr soko ac som in osun nu sin mutan kial ah. El fahk nu sin papa talupal, “Nga lungse utyak nu ke infukil lun mutan kiuk ah.” Tusruktu papa sac tia lela.
2 And her father said, I verily thought that thou didst utterly hate her; therefore I gave her to thy companion. Is not her younger sister fairer than she? Let her, I pray thee, be thine instead of her.
El fahk nu sel Samson, “Nga pangon kom srungalla na pwaye, oru nga eisalang nu sin kawuk se lom ah. Tusruktu tamtael fusr se wial inge el kato lukel. Kom ku in eisal elan aolulla.”
3 And Samson said to them, This time I am blameless toward the Philistines, though I do them harm.
Na Samson el fahk, “Inge, nga finne oru kutu ma upa nu sin mwet Philistia, ac fah wangin mwetik kac.”
4 And Samson went and caught three hundred jackals, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the midst between the two tails.
Na el som ac sruokya kosro fox tolfoko ac kapriya pulalos kais lukwa, ac sang kahp in e nu kac.
5 And he set the torches on fire, and let [them] run into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks, and also the standing corn, and the olive gardens.
Na el akosak kahp inge ac fuhlelosla in ima in wheat lun mwet Philistia ah. Ouinge wheat ma elos kosrani tari ac wheat ma srakna kapak in ima ah, firiryak nufon, oayapa sak olive wi pac folla.
6 And the Philistines said, Who has done this? And they answered, Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he took his wife and gave her to his companion. And the Philistines came up, and burned her and her father with fire.
Ke mwet Philistia elos siyuk lah su oru ma inge, na fwackyang nu selos lah Samson pa oru uh, mweyen papa talupal el tuh eisalang mutan kial Samson nu sin kawuk se lal Samson ah. Ouinge mwet Philistia elos som ac esukak lohm sin papa sac, na mutan sac ac sou lal nufon misa.
7 And Samson said to them, If ye act thus, for a certainty I will avenge myself on you, and then I will cease.
Samson el fahk nu selos, “Fin pa inge orekma lowos uh, nga fulahk lah nga fah tiana tui nwe ke na nga aksafyela foloksak luk nu suwos!”
8 And he smote them hip and thigh with a great slaughter. And he went down and dwelt in the cleft of the cliff Etam.
El oru sie mweun na upa, ac onela mwet puspis selos. Na el som ac muta in luf se ke eot fulat in Etam.
9 And the Philistines went up, and encamped in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi.
Mwet Philistia elos tuku ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Judah, ac elos mweuni acn Lehi.
10 And the men of Judah said, Why are ye come up against us? And they said, To bind Samson are we come up, to do to him as he has done to us.
Mwet Judah elos siyuk selos, “Efu ku kowos tuku mweuni kut?” Na elos fahk, “Kut tuku in sruokilya Samson in folokin nu sel ma el oru nu sesr.”
11 Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cleft of the cliff Etam, and said to Samson, Knowest thou not that the Philistines rule over us? And what is this that thou hast done to us? And he said to them, As they did to me, so have I done to them.
Na tausin tolu sin mwet Judah inge som nu ke luf se ke eot fulat in Etam ac fahk nu sel Samson, “Ya kom nikin lah mwet Philistia elos pa leum facsr uh— Mea se kom oru nu sesr inge?” Na el topuk ac fahk nu selos, “Ma na elos oru nu sik ah pa nga oru oapana nu selos.”
12 And they said to him, We are come down to bind thee, that we may give thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said to them, Swear to me that ye will not fall on me yourselves.
Na elos fahk nu sel, “Kut tuku in kaprikomi tuh kut in eiskomyang nu inpaolos.” Na Samson el fahk, “Fulahk nu sik lah kowos ac tia sifacna uniyuwi.”
13 And they spoke to him, saying, No; but we will bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hand; but we certainly shall not put thee to death. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him up from the cliff.
Na elos fahk, “Aok, kut ac tia unikomi. Kut ac kaprikomi na, ac eiskomyang nu selos.” Ouinge elos kaprilya ke sucl sasu lukwa ac pwanulak liki eot fulat sac.
14 When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted against him. And the Spirit of Jehovah came upon him, and the cords that were on his arms became as threads of flax that are burned with fire, and his bands loosed from off his hands.
Ke el sun acn Lehi, mwet Philistia elos sasa ac kasrusr tuku nu yorol. In kitin pacl ah na, ku lun LEUM GOD putati nu facl, ac el wotyalik sucl ma kapriya paol oana luman turet ma firirla tari, ac mwe kapir putatla liki paol.
15 And he found a fresh jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand and took it, and slew with it a thousand men.
Na el konauk srin oalin donkey soko ma tufahna misa, ac el srukak ac sang onela sie tausin mwet kac.
16 And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, a heap, two heaps, With the jawbone of an ass have I slain a thousand men.
Na Samson el on ac fahk, “Ke srin oalin donkey soko, nga uniya sie tausin mwet; Ke srin oalin donkey soko, nga elosak yolin mwet.”
17 And it came to pass when he had ended speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramath-Lehi.
Tukun ma inge, el sisla sri soko ah, na pangpang acn se ma inge sikyak we ah Ramath Lehi.
18 And he was very thirsty, and called on Jehovah, and said, Thou hast given by the hand of thy servant this great deliverance, and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?
Na Samson el arulana malu, ouinge el pang nu sin LEUM GOD ac fahk, “Kom ase kutangla na lulap se inge nu sik. Ya pwaye nga ac misa ke sripen malu, ac putatyang nu inpoun mwet pegan?”
19 And God clave the hallow rock which was in Lehi, and water came out of it. And he drank, and his spirit came again, and he revived. Therefore its name was called En-hakkore, which is in Lehi to this day.
Na God El ikaselik sie acn oalal infohk uh in acn Lehi, ac kof unonak kac me. Ke Samson el nimkofi ngunal folokyang, na el sifilpa kui. Ouinge unon in kof se inge pangpang En-Hakkore, ac srakna oasr in acn Lehi nwe misenge.
20 And he judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years.
Samson el tuh nununku mwet Israel yac longoul, ke pacl se mwet Israel elos muta ye poun mwet Philistia.
