Judges 14
1 Nowe Samson went downe to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistims,
I HO aku la o Samesona i Timenata, a ike aku la i kekahi wahine ma Timenata, no na kaikamahine a ko Pilisetia.
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.
Pii mai la ia, a hai mai la i kona makuakane, a me kona makuwahine, i mai la, Ua ike au i kekahi wahine ma Timenata, no na kaikamahine a ko Pilisetia; nolaila ea, e kii aku ia ia, i wahine na'u.
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.
I aku la kona makuakane, a me kona makuwahine ia ia, Aole anei he wahine iwaena o na kaikamahine o kou poe hoahanau, a me kou poe kanaka a pau, i hele aku ai oe, e lawe i wahine no ka poe okipoepoe ole ia o ko Pilisetia? I mai la o Samesona i kona makuakane, E kii aku ia ia na'u, no ka mea, ua pono ia i ko'u mau maka.
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.
Aole i ike kona makuakane a me kona makuwahine, na Iehova mai ia mea, no kona imi hala ana no i ko Pilisetia. Ia manawa e noho lanakila ana ko Pilisetia maluna o ka Iseraela.
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.
Alaila, iho aku la o Samesona, a me kona makuakane a me kona makuwahine i Timenata, a hiki i na pawaina o Timenata; uwo mai la kekahi liona opiopio, i kona halawai ana me ia.
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.
Kau mai la ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, a haehae iho la oia ia ia, e like me ka haehae ana o ke kaokeiki, aohe mea ma kona lima; aole hoi ia i hai aku i kona makuakane, a me kona makuwahine, i ka mea ana i hana'i.
7 And he went down, and talked with the woman which was beautifull in the eyes of Samson.
Iho aku la ia, a kamailio pu iho la me ua wahine la; a ua pono ia i na maka o Samesona.
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.
A mahope iho hoi mai la ia e lawe ia ia, kipa ae la ia e nana i ke kino o ka liona; aia hoi, he poe nalomeli, a me ka meli pu maloko o ke kino o ua liona la.
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.
Lalau aku la kona mau lima ia mea, a i ka hele ana, hele no ia e ai ana, a hiki i kona makuakane, a me kona makuwahine, a haawi aku la ia laua, a ai iho la laua; aole nae ia i hai aku ia laua, i kona lawe ana i ka meli, mailoko aku o ke kino o ka liona.
10 So his father went down vnto the woman, and Samson made there a feast: for so vsed the yong men to doe.
Iho aku la kona makuakane i ua wahine la, a malaila i hana'i o Samesona i ahaaina palala; no ka mea, pela i hana'i na kanaka ui.
11 And when they sawe him, they brought thirtie companions to be with him.
A ike lakou ia ia, lawe lakou i kanakolu hoa, e noho pu ai me ia.
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.
I aku la o Samesona ia lakou, E nanenane aku au ia oukou, a ina e koho mai oukou ia ia'u, i keia mau la ehiku o ka ahaaina ana, a loaa pono, alaila, e haawi aku au ia oukou i kanakolu palule, a me na paa kapa he kanakolu.
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.
Aka, ina aole hiki ia oukou ke hai mai ia'u, alaila, na oukou e haawi mai ia'u, i kanakolu palule, a me na paa kapa he kanakolu. I mai la lakou ia ia, E nane mai oe, i lohe makou.
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.
I aku la oia ia lakou, Mailoko mai o ka mea e ai ana i puka mai ai ka ai, a mailoko mai hoi o ka mea ikaika, i loaa mai ai ka ono. A i na la ekolu, aole hiki ia lakou, ke koho mai ia ia i ua nane la.
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?
A i ka hiku o ka la, i ae la lakou i ka wahine a Samesona, E hoowalewale oe i kau kane, i hai mai ai oia ia kakou i ka nane, o puhi auanei makou ia oe, a me ka hale o kou makuakane i ke ahi. Ua kii mai anei oukou ia makou e hoohune ia makou, aole anei?
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?
Uwe iho la ka wahine a Samesona imua ona, i aku la ia ia, Ke hoowahawaha wale mai nei oe ia'u, aole aloha mai ia'u. Ua nanenane mai oe i na keiki a ko'u poe kanaka, aole hoi i hai mai ia'u. I mai la kela ia ia, Aia hoi, aole au i hai aku i ko'u makuakane, a me ko'u makuwahine, a e hai anei au ia oe?
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.
A ia mau la ehiku o ka lakou ahaaina ana, uwe iho la oia imua ona; a i ka hiku o ka la, hai mai la kela ia ia, no ka mea, koi ikaika loa mai la ia ia; a hai ae la ka wahine i ua nane la i na keiki a kona poe kanaka.
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.
A i ka hiku o ka la, aole i komo ka la, i mai la na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale ia ia, Heaha ka mea i oi aku ka ono mamua o ka meli? a heaha hoi ka mea i oi aku ka ikaika mamua o ka liona? I aku la keia ia lakou, Ina aole oukou i oopalau me ka'u bipi wahine opiopio, ina ua loaa ole ia oukou ka'u nane.
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.
Kau mai la ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, a iho aku la ia i Asekelona, a pepehi iho la i kanakolu kanaka o lakou, a lawe i ko lakou lole, a haawi ae la i paa kapa no ka poe i hai mai i ka nane. Wela iho la kona huhu, a pii aku la ia i ka hale o kona makuakane.
20 Then Samsons wife was giuen to his companion, whom he had vsed as his friend.
Lilo ae la ka wahine a Samesona i kona hoa, ana i hoolauna aku ai.
