< Judges 14 >
1 Nowe Samson went downe to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistims,
Samson te Timnah la a suntlak vaengah huta pakhat, Philisti nu te Timnah ah a hmuh.
2 And he came vp and told his father and his mother and saide, I haue seene a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistims: now therfore giue me her to wife.
Te dongah ha bal tih a napa neh a manu taengah a thui pah tih, “Timnah ah Philisti nu huta ka hmuh tih anih te kai yuu la han lo laeh,” a ti nah.
3 Then his father and his mother sayde vnto him, Is there neuer a wife among the daughters of thy brethren, and among all my people, that thou must go to take a wife of the vncircumcised Philistims? And Samson sayd vnto his father, Giue mee her, for she pleaseth me well.
Tedae a napa neh a manu loh, “Na manuca kah tanu lakli neh ka pilnam cungkuem lakli ah om pawt tih a? Philisti pumdul te yuu la loh ham tekah huta te na paan eh,” a ti nah. Tedae a napa taengah Samson loh, “Ka mik loh a nai coeng dongah anih mah kai ham han lo laeh,” a ti nah.
4 But his father and his mother knewe not that it came of the Lord, that he should seeke an occasion against the Philistims: for at that time the Philistims reigned ouer Israel.
Te vaeng tue ah Philisti loh Israel a ngol thil dongah BOEIPA loh Philisti taengah a tuetang a dawn te Samson kah a napa neh a manu loh ming pawh.
5 Then went Samson and his father and his mother downe to Timnath, and came to ye vineyardes at Timnath: and beholde, a young Lyon roared vpon him.
Samson loh a manu a napa te Timnah la a suntlak puei tih Timnah misur a pha uh vaengah tah sathueng khuikah sathuengca loh samson cuuk thil ham tarha kawk.
6 And the Spirit of the Lord came vpon him, and he tare him, as one should haue rent a kid, and had nothing in his hand, neither told he his father nor his mother what he had done.
BOEIPA Mueihla loh Samson te a thaihtak sak dongah maae ca a baeh bangla sathueng te a baeh tih, a kut dongah pakhat khaw kap pawh. Tedae a saii te a manu a napa taengah thui pawh.
7 And he went down, and talked with the woman which was beautifull in the eyes of Samson.
Suntla tih huta taengah a cal vaengah mah Samson mik dongah thuem.
8 And within a fewe dayes, when he returned to receiue her, he went aside to see the karkeis of the Lion: and behold, there was a swarme of bees, and hony in the body of the Lyon.
Khohnin a thok phoeiah a yuu te loh ham a mael vaengah sathueng a cungkunah te sawt ham a phael hatah sathueng rhok dongah khoi ana bop tih khoitui te lawt a hmuh.
9 And he tooke therof in his handes, and went eating, and came to his father and to his mother, and gaue vnto them, and they did eate: but hee told not them, that he had taken the hony out of the body of the lyon.
Te dongah khoi te a kut neh a poh tih a caeh, a caeh doela a caak. A manu a napa taengah a pha vaengah amih rhoi te khaw a paek tih a caak rhoi. Tedae sathueng rhok khui lamkah khoitui a poh te amih rhoi taengah thui pawh.
10 So his father went down vnto the woman, and Samson made there a feast: for so vsed the yong men to doe.
Te phoeiah huta taengah a napa te cet tih tongpang rhoek loh a saii uh noek bangla Samson loh buhkoknah pahoi a saii.
11 And when they sawe him, they brought thirtie companions to be with him.
Anih te a hmuh uh vaengah baerhoep sawmthum a khuen uh tih anih taengah om uh.
12 Then Samson sayd vnto them, I will nowe put forth a riddle vnto you: and if you can declare it me within seuen dayes of the feast, and finde it out, I will giue you thirty sheetes, and thirtie change of garments.
Amih te Samson loh, “Nangmih taengah ka thui olkael he buhkoknah hnin rhih khuiah kai taengah han thui rhoela han thui uh. Na puk uh atah hni sawmthum neh thovaelnah himbai sawmthum te nangmih kam pae eh.
13 But if you cannot declare it mee, then shall yee giue mee thirty sheetes and thirtie change of garments. And they answered him, Put forth thy riddle, that we may heare it.
Tedae kai taengah na thui ham na coeng uh pawt atah kai he nangmih loh hni sawmthum neh thovaelnah himbai sawmthum nam paek uh van ni,” a ti nah. Te dongah Samsawn te, “Na olkael te thui lamtah ka hnatun uh lah eh,” a ti uh.
14 And he sayd vnto them, Out of the eater came meate, and out of the strong came sweetenesse: and they could not in three dayes expound the riddle.
Te phoeiah amih te, “Aka hnom khui lamkah caak ha thoeng tih aka tlung khui lamkah didip ha thoeng,” a ti nah hatah olkael ming ham te hnin thum khuiah coeng uh thai voel pawh.
15 And when the seuenth day was come, they said vnto Samsons wife, Entise thine husband, that he may declare vs the riddle, lest wee burne thee and thy fathers house with fire. Haue ye called vs, to possesse vs? is it not so?
Hnin rhih a pha vaengah Samson yuu taengah, “Na va te hloih lamtah olkael te kaimih ham thui laeh saeh, namah neh na pa imkhui hmai neh kang hoeh uh ve, kaimih talh ham nim kaimih taengla nang khue,” a ti na uh.
16 And Samsons wife wept before him, and said, Surely thou hatest mee and louest mee not: for thou hast put forth a riddle vnto the children of my people, and hast not told it mee. And hee sayd vnto her, Beholde, I haue not told it my father, nor my mother, and shall I tell it thee?
Te dongah Samson yuu te a taengah a rhah pah tih, “Kai nan nen tih nan lungnah pawt dongah ka pilnam khuikah ka nganpa rhoek te olkael neh na voek khaw kai taengah nan thui pawh,” a ti nah. Tedae Samson loh, “A nu a pa taengah pataeng ka thui pawt te nang taengah tarha ka thui aya?” a ti nah.
17 Then Samsons wife wept before him seuen dayes, while their feast lasted: and when the seuenth day came he tolde her, because she was importunate vpon him: so she told the riddle to the children of her people.
Amih ham buhkoknah a om duela hnin rhih khuiah samson te a rhah thil. Tedae a hnin rhih dongla a pha vaengah tah Samson te moelh a kilh dongah a yuu ham te a thui pah tih a yuu loh a pilnam khuikah a hlang rhoek taengah olkael te a thui pah.
18 And the men of ye citie sayde vnto him the seuenth day before the Sunne went downe, What is sweeter then honie? and what is stronger then a lyon? Then sayd hee vnto them, If yee had not plowed with my heiffer, yee had not found out my riddle.
Te dongah a hnin rhih dongah tah khopuei hlang rhoek loh vinhna bangla a hnai hlanah, “Khoitui lakah balae aka didip tih sathueng lakah balae aka tlung?” a ti nah. Tedae amih te Samson loh, “Kai kah vaito neh na phayai uh pawt koinih ka olkael he na puk uh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
19 And the Spirite of the Lord came vpon him, and he went downe to Ashkelon, and slew thirtie men of them and spoyled them, and gaue chaunge of garments vnto them, which expounded the riddle: and his wrath was kindled, and he went vp to his fathers house.
BOEIPA Mueihla loh Samson te a thaihtak sak dongah Ashkelon la suntla tih hlang sawmthum a ngawn. Amih kah pumoep te a loh pah tih olkael aka thui rhoek te thovaelnah himbai te a paek. Tedae a thintoek a sai doeah a napa im la mael.
20 Then Samsons wife was giuen to his companion, whom he had vsed as his friend.
Samson yuu te anih taengah aka luem a baerhoep taengla a om pah.
