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.
O rĩngĩ andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo Jehova akĩmaneana moko-inĩ ma Afilisti handũ ha mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna.
2 Then there was a man in Zorah of the familie of the Danites, named Manoah, whose wife was baren, and bare not.
Mũndũ ũmwe warĩ wa Zora, wetagwo Manoa kuuma mũhĩrĩga wa Adani, aarĩ na mũtumia warĩ thaata watũũrĩte atarĩ na mwana.
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.
Mũraika wa Jehova akĩmuumĩrĩra, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩ thaata na ndũrĩ mwana, no nĩũkũgĩa nda ũciare kahĩĩ.
4 And nowe therefore beware that thou drinke no wine, nor strong drinke, neither eate any vncleane thing.
Na rĩrĩ, wĩmenyerere ndũkananyue ndibei kana kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩgagatu, na ndũkanarĩe kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩ thaahu,
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.
tondũ wee nĩũkũgĩa nda na ũciare kahĩĩ. Gũtirĩ kanyũi gakaahũthĩrwo mũtwe-inĩ wake, nĩ ũndũ kahĩĩ kau gagaatuĩka Mũnaziri wamũrĩirwo Ngai kuuma gũciarwo, na nĩakambĩrĩria kũhonokia Isiraeli kuuma moko-inĩ ma Afilisti.”
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,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũtumia ũcio agĩthiĩ kũrĩ mũthuuriwe, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ wa Ngai nĩokire kũrĩ niĩ. Ekuonekaga ahaana ta mũraika wa Ngai wa gwĩtigĩrwo mũno. Ndinamũũria kũrĩa oimĩte, nake ndananjĩĩra rĩĩtwa rĩake.
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.
No nĩanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩũkũgĩa nda na ũciare kahĩĩ. Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo, ndũkanyue ndibei kana kĩndũ kĩgagatu, o na ndũkarĩe kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩ thaahu, tondũ kahĩĩ kau gagaakorwo karĩ Mũnaziri wa Ngai kuuma gũciarwo nginya mũthenya wako wa gũkua.’”
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Manoa akĩhooya Jehova: “Mwathani nĩndagũthaitha, reke mũndũ ũcio wa Ngai ũgũtũmĩte kũrĩ ithuĩ oke rĩngĩ nĩguo atũrute ũrĩa tũkũrera kahĩĩ karĩa gagaaciarwo.”
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.
Ngai akĩigua Manoa, na mũraika wa Ngai agĩũka rĩngĩ kũrĩ mũtumia rĩrĩa aarĩ mũgũnda-inĩ; no mũthuuriwe Manoa ndaarĩ hamwe nake.
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.
Nake mũtumia akĩhiũha gũthiĩ kwĩra mũthuuriwe, “Mũndũ ũrĩa wanyumĩrĩire mũthenya ũrĩa ũngĩ-rĩ, arĩ haha!”
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 agĩũkĩra, akĩrũmĩrĩra mũtumia wake. Rĩrĩa aakinyire harĩ mũndũ ũcio-rĩ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “We nĩwe waririe na mũtumia wakwa?” Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩ niĩ.”
12 Then Manoah sayde, Nowe let thy saying come to passe: but howe shall we order the childe and doe vnto him?
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Manoa akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ciugo ciaku ikaahinga-rĩ, watho wa mũtũũrĩre wa kahĩĩ gaka na wĩra wako ũgaakorwo ũrĩ ũrĩkũ?”
13 And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto Manoah, The woman must beware of all that I said vnto her.
Mũraika wa Jehova agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia waku no nginya eeke ũrĩa wothe ndĩmwĩrĩte.
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.
Ndakarĩe kĩndũ o gĩothe kiumĩte mũthabibũ-inĩ, kana anyue ndibei o yothe, kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ gĩa kũnyua kĩgagatu kana arĩe kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩ thaahu. No nginya eeke maũndũ mothe marĩa niĩ ndĩmwathĩte.”
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 akĩĩra mũraika wa Jehova atĩrĩ, “No twende ũikare nginya tũgũthĩnjĩre koori.”
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.
Mũraika wa Jehova agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “O na wangiria thiĩ, ndikũrĩa irio ciaku. No wahaarĩria igongona rĩa njino-rĩ, rĩu rĩrutĩre Jehova.” (Manoa ndaigana gũkũũrana atĩ ũcio aarĩ mũraika wa Jehova.)
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?
Nake Manoa agĩtuĩria ũhoro kuuma kũrĩ mũraika wa Jehova akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee wĩtagwo atĩa, nĩguo tũgaagũtĩĩa hĩndĩ ĩrĩa kiugo gĩaku gĩgaatuĩka kĩa ma?”
18 And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, which is secret?
Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma ũnjũũrie rĩĩtwa rĩakwa? Ndũngĩhota kũrĩmenya, nĩ rĩa magegania.”
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Manoa akĩoya koori hamwe na mũtu wa igongona, agĩcirutĩra Jehova igũrũ rĩa ihiga. Nake Jehova agĩĩka ũndũ wa magegania o Manoa na mũtumia wake meroreire:
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.
O rũrĩrĩmbĩ rũkĩrĩrĩmbũkaga kuuma kĩgongona-inĩ rũrorete igũrũ-rĩ, mũraika wa Jehova akĩambatĩra rũrĩrĩmbĩ-inĩ rũu. Nake Manoa na mũtumia wake mona ũguo, makĩĩgũithia magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ.
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.
Rĩrĩa mũraika ũcio wa Jehova aagire gũcooka kwĩyonithania kũrĩ Manoa na mũtumia wake, Manoa akĩmenya atĩ ũcio aarĩ mũraika wa Jehova.
22 And Manoah said vnto his wife, We shall surely dye, because we haue seene God.
Akĩĩra mũtumia wake atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ rĩu no tũgũkua, tondũ nĩtuonete Ngai!”
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.
No mũtumia wake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Korwo Jehova nĩegũtuĩte gũtũũraga-rĩ, ndangĩtĩkĩrire igongona rĩa njino na igongona rĩa mũtu kuuma moko-inĩ maitũ, o na kana atuonie maũndũ maya mothe kana gũtwĩra ũguo aatwĩra rĩu.”
24 And the wife bare a sonne, and called his name Samson: and the childe grewe, and the Lord blessed him.
Mũtumia ũcio agĩciara kahĩĩ na agĩgatua Samusoni. Gagĩkũra, nake Jehova agĩkarathima,
25 And the Spirite of the Lord beganne to strengthen him in the host of Dan, betweene Zorah, and Eshtaol.
nake Roho wa Jehova akĩambĩrĩria gũkaarahũra o hĩndĩ ĩyo kaarĩ kũu Mahane-Dani, gatagatĩ ga Zora na Eshitaoli.
