Judges 15
1 And a while after, when the days of the wheat harvest were at hand, Samson came, meaning to visit his wife, and he brought her a kid of the flock. And when he would have gone into her chamber as usual, her father would not suffer him, saying:
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 I thought thou hadst hated her, and therefore I gave her to thy friend: but she hath a sister, who is younger and fairer than she, take her to wife 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 answered him: From this day I shall be blameless in what I do against the Philistines: for I will do you evils.
Na Samson el fahk, “Inge, nga finne oru kutu ma upa nu sin mwet Philistia, ac fah wangin mwetik kac.”
4 And he went and caught three hundred foxes, and coupled them tail to tail, and fastened torches between the tails.
Na el som ac sruokya kosro fox tolfoko ac kapriya pulalos kais lukwa, ac sang kahp in e nu kac.
5 And setting them on fire he let the foxes go, that they might run about hither and thither. And they presently went into the standing corn of the Philistines. Which being set on fire, both the corn that was already carried together, and that which was yet standing, was all burnt, insomuch, that the flame consumed also the vineyards and the oliveyards.
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 Then the Philistines said: Who hath done this thing? And it was answered: Samson the son in law of the Thamnathite, because he took away his wife, and gave her to another, hath done these things. And the Philistines went up and burnt both the woman and her father.
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 But Samson said to them: Although you have done this, yet will I be revenged of you, and then I will be quiet.
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 made a great slaughter of them, so that in astonishment they laid the calf of the leg upon the thigh. And going down he dwelt in a cavern of the rock 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 Then the Philistines going up into the land of Juda, camped in the place which afterwards was called Lechi, that is, the Jawbone, where their army was spread.
Mwet Philistia elos tuku ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Judah, ac elos mweuni acn Lehi.
10 And the men of the tribe of Juda said to them: Why are you come up against us? They answered: We are come to bind Samson, and to pay him for what he hath done against 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 Wherefore three thousand men of Juda, went down to the cave of the rock Etam, and said to Samson: Knowest thou not that the Philistines rule over us? Why wouldst thou do thus? 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 to bind thee and to deliver thee into the hands of the Philistines. And Samson said to them: Swear to me, and promise me, that you will not kill me.
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 They said: We will not kill thee: but we will deliver thee up bound. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him from the rock Etam.
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 Now when he was come to the place of the Jawbone, and the Philistines shouting went to meet him, the spirit of the Lord came strongly upon him: and as the flax is wont to be consumed at the approach of fire, so the bands with which he was bound were broken and loosed.
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 finding a jawbone, even the jawbone of an ass which lay there, catching it up, be slew therewith 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 he said: With the jawbone of an ass, with the jaw of the colt of asses I have destroyed them, and have 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 when he had ended these words singing, he threw the jawbone out of his hand, and called the name of that place Ramathlechi, which is interpreted the lifting up of the jawbone.
Tukun ma inge, el sisla sri soko ah, na pangpang acn se ma inge sikyak we ah Ramath Lehi.
18 Arid being very thirsty, he cried to the Lord, and said: Thou hast given this very great deliverance and victory into the hand of thy servant: and behold I die for thirst, and shall fall into the hands 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 Then the Lord opened a great tooth in the jaw of the ass, and waters issued out of it. And when he had drank them he refreshed his spirit, and recovered his strength. Therefore the name of that place was called, The Spring of him that invoked from the jawbone, until this present 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.
