< Judges 13 >

1 Bvt the children of Israel continued to commit wickednesse in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord deliuerd them into the handes of the Philistims fourtie yeere.
Jo-Israel nochako otimo timbe mamono e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye, omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nochiwogi e lwet jo-Filistia kuom higni piero angʼwen.
2 Then there was a man in Zorah of the familie of the Danites, named Manoah, whose wife was baren, and bare not.
Ja-Zora moro, ma nyinge Manoa, moa e anywola joka Dan, ne en gi dhako ma migumba kendo nobedo maonge nyathi.
3 And the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto the woman, and said vnto her, Beholde nowe, thou art baren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceiue, and beare a sonne.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyorene mi owacho niya, “In migumba kendo ionge nyathi to ibiro mako ich mi inywol wuowi.
4 And nowe therefore beware that thou drinke no wine, nor strong drinke, neither eate any vncleane thing.
Koro kik imadh divai kata gimoro amora mamero ji kendo kik icham chiemo moro amora mogak,
5 For loe, thou shalt conceiue and beare a sonne, and no rasor shall come on his head: for the childe shall be a Nazarite vnto God from his birth: and he shall begin to saue Israel out of the handes of the Philistims.
nikech ibiro mako ich kendo ininywol wuowi. Wembe ok nokal e wiye, nikech wuowino nyaka bed ja-Nazir, mowal ne Nyasaye, koa nywolne, kendo nochak reso jo-Israel oa e lwet jo-Filistia.”
6 Then the wife came, and tolde her husband, saying, A man of God came vnto me, and the facion of him was like the facion of the Angel of God exceeding feareful, but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name,
Eka dhakono nodhi ir chwore kendo owachone niya, “Ngʼat Nyasaye nobiro ira. Nochalo malaika mar Nyasaye, nolich ahinya. Ne ok apenje kuma ne oaye, kendo kata nyinge ne ok onyisa.
7 But he saide vnto me, Beholde, thou shalt conceiue, and beare a sonne, and nowe thou shalt drinke no wine, nor strong drinke, neither eate any vncleane thing: for the childe shalbe a Nazarite to God from his birth to the day of his death.
To nowachona ni, ‘Ibiro mako ich kendo ininywol wuowi. Omiyo koro, kik imadh divai kata gimoro amora mamero ji kendo kik icham chiemo moro amora mogak, nikech wuowino biro bedo ja-Nazir mar Nyasaye kochakore chiengʼ nywolne nyaka thone.’”
8 Then Manoah prayed to the Lord and saide, I pray thee, my Lord, Let the man of God, whome thou sentest, come againe nowe vnto vs, and teach vs what we shall doe vnto the child when he is borne.
Eka Manoa nolamo Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Yaye Ruoth Nyasaye, akwayi, mad iwe ngʼat Nyasaye mane ioro irwa obi kendo opuonjwa kaka wanyalo rito wuowini.”
9 And God heard the voyce of Manoah, and the Angel of God came againe vnto the wife, as she sate in the fielde, but Manoah her husband was not with her.
Nyasaye nowinjo Manoa, kendo malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye noduogo ir dhako sa ma ne en e puodho; to Manoa chwore ne ok ni kode.
10 And the wife made haste and ranne, and shewed her husband and sayde vnto him, Behold, the man hath appeared vnto me, that came vnto me to day.
Chi Manoa nodhi piyo monyiso chwore niya, “Ngʼat mane obiro ira cha ni ka!”
11 And Manoah arose and went after his wife, and came to the man, and saide vnto him, Art thou the man that spakest vnto the woman? and he said, Yea.
Manoa no-aa malo moluwo bangʼ chiege. Kane ochopo ir ngʼatno, nowacho niya, “In e ngʼama nowuoyo kod chiega?” Nodwoke niya, “Ee, en an.”
12 Then Manoah sayde, Nowe let thy saying come to passe: but howe shall we order the childe and doe vnto him?
Omiyo Manoa nopenje niya, “Ka wechegi ochopo kare, to chike mage mabiro rito ngima kod tich wuowini?”
13 And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto Manoah, The woman must beware of all that I said vnto her.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Chiegi nyaka tim gigo duto ma asenyise.
14 She may eate of nothing that commeth of the vinetree: she shall not drinke wine nor strong drinke, nor eate any vncleane thing: let her obserue all that I haue commanded her.
Ok onego ocham gimoro amora mowuok kuom mzabibu, kata madho divai moro amora kata madho gimoro amora mamero ji kata chamo chiemo moro amora mogak. Nyaka otim gik moko duto masechike.”
15 Manoah then said vnto the Angell of the Lord, I pray thee, let vs reteine thee, vntill we haue made readie a kid for thee.
Manoa nowachone malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Dwaher mondo ibed kodwa matin nyaka wayangʼnie nyadiel moro.”
16 And the Angel of the Lord said vnto Manoah, Though thou make me abide, I will not eate of thy bread, and if thou wilt make a burnt offring, offer it vnto the Lord: for Manoah knewe not that it was an Angel of the Lord.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Kata bed ni ugengʼona kae, to ok anacham chiembu moro amora. To ka uiko misango miwangʼo pep, to uchiwe ne Jehova Nyasaye.” Manoa ne ok ongʼeyo nine en malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye.
17 Againe Manoah said vnto the Angell of the Lord, What is thy name, that when thy saying is come to passe, we may honour thee?
Eka Manoa nonono malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Nyingi ngʼa; mondo mi wabi wamiyi duongʼ ka wachni obedo adiera?”
18 And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, which is secret?
Nodwoko niya, “Angʼo ma omiyo ipenjo nyinga? En nying modhiero ngʼeyo.”
19 Then Manoah tooke a kid with a meate offering, and offered it vpon a stone vnto the Lord: and the Angell did wonderously, whiles Manoah and his wife looked on.
Eka Manoa nokawo nyadiel, kaachiel gi chiwo mar cham, mi otimone Jehova Nyasaye misango ewi lwanda. Kendo Jehova Nyasaye notimo gima hono ka Manoa gi chiege neno.
20 For when the flame came vp toward heauen from the altar, the Angel of the Lord ascended vp in the flame of the altar, and Manoah and his wife behelde it, and fell on their faces vnto the grounde.
E sa ma pilni mach ne dhwolore koa e kendo mar misango kochiko polo, malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nodhi malo koluwo pilni mach. Kane gineno ma, Manoa gi chiege nopodho piny auma.
21 (So the Angel of the Lord did no more appeare vnto Manoah and his wife.) Then Manoah knewe that it was an Angel of the Lord.
Kane malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye ne ok ochako ofwenyore ne Manoa gi chiege, Manoa nofwenyo ni ne en malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye.
22 And Manoah said vnto his wife, We shall surely dye, because we haue seene God.
Nowachone chiege niya, “Wabiro tho nikech waseneno Nyasaye gi wangʼwa!”
23 But his wife saide vnto him, If the Lord woulde kill vs, he woulde not haue receiued a burnt offring, and a meate offring of our hands, neither would he haue shewed vs all these things, nor would now haue tolde vs any such.
To chiege nodwoko niya, “Ka dipo ni Jehova Nyasaye ne nigi paro mar negowa, to dine ok oyie misango miwangʼo pep kod chiwo mar cham moa e lwetwa, kata nyisowa gigi duto kata nyisowa masani.”
24 And the wife bare a sonne, and called his name Samson: and the childe grewe, and the Lord blessed him.
Dhakono nonywolo wuowi kendo nochake ni Samson. Nodongo kendo Jehova Nyasaye nogwedhe,
25 And the Spirite of the Lord beganne to strengthen him in the host of Dan, betweene Zorah, and Eshtaol.
kendo Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nochako bedo kode ka en Mahane Dan, e kind Zora gi Eshtaol.
