< Judges 15 >

1 But within a while after, in the time of wheate haruest, Samson visited his wife with a kid, saying, I wil go in to my wife into the chamber: but her father would not suffer him to goe in.
Khohnin puet om tih cangah tue vaengah tah Samson loh a yuu te maae ca neh a hip. Te dongah, “Ka yuu taengah imkhui la ka kun pawn ni,” a ti van hatah huta kah a napa loh anih te kun sak pawh.
2 And her father sayde, I thought that thou hadst hated her: therefore gaue I her to thy companion. Is not her yonger sister fayrer then shee? take her, I pray thee, in stead of the other.
Te phoeiah huta kah a napa loh, “Anih he hnoel rhoela na hnoel tila ka ti khaw ka ti coeng dongah anih he na baerhoep taengah ka paek coeng. A mana te anih lakah a then ngai moenih a? A ham yueng la nang taengah tloep om mai saeh,” a ti nah.
3 Then Samson saide vnto them, Nowe am I more blamelesse then the Philistims: therefore will I doe them displeasure.
Te phoeiah Samson loh amih te, “Philisti taeng lamloh voeivai tah m'hmil dae saeh, amih taengah boethae ka saii vaengah he,” a ti nah.
4 And Samson went out, and tooke three hundreth foxes, and tooke firebrands, and turned them taile to taile, and put a firebrand in ye middes betweene two tailes.
Te phoeiah Samson te cet tih maetang ya thum a tuuk. Hmaithoi a loh tih maetang a mai neh mai boeih a hlaengtang pah. Maetang kah a mai rhoi laklo ah hmaithoi a khih pah.
5 And when he had set the brandes on fire, he sent them out into the standing corne of the Philistims, and burnt vp both the rickes and the standing corne with the vineyardes and oliues.
Hmaithoi te hmai a hlae tih Philisti kah canghli ah a hlah vaengah canghlom lamloh canghli khaw, misur neh olive khaw boeih a ung pah.
6 Then the Philistims sayde, Who hath done this? And they answered, Samson the sonne in law of the Timnite, because hee had taken his wife, and giuen her to his companion. Then the Philistims came vp and burnt her and her father with fire.
Te dongah Philisti rhoek loh, “He he ulae aka saii,” a ti uh hatah, “A yuu te a bong pah tih a baerhoep taengla vik a paek pah dongah Timni cava Samson loh a saii,” a ti uh. Te dongah Philisti rhoek te cet uh tih amah khaw a napa te khaw hmai neh a hoeh uh.
7 And Samson saide vnto them, Though yee haue done this, yet wil I be auenged of you, and then I wil cease.
Tedae amih te Samson loh, “He bang he na saii uh van dongah nangmih phu kan loh daengah ni ka paa eh?,” a ti nah.
8 So hee smote them hippe and thigh with a mightie plague: then hee went and dwelt in the top of the rocke Etam.
Amih te a hlit neh a laeng dongah hmasoe len neh a taam daengah suntla tih Etam thaelpang kah thaelvap khuiah kho a sak.
9 Then the Philistims came vp, and pitched in Iudah, and were spred abroad in Lehi.
Philisti rhoek te cet uh tih Judah ah a rhaeh uh hatah Lehi kaep ah khaw khawk yaal uh.
10 And the men of Iudah sayde, Why are yee come vp vnto vs? And they answered, To binde Samson are we come vp, and to do to him as hee hath done to vs.
Te dongah Judah hlang rhoek loh, “Balae tih kaimih soah na luei uh,” a ti nah hatah, “Samson te khoh ham neh kaimih taengah a saii bangla anih taengah saii van ham kam paan uh coeng,” a ti uh.
11 Then three thousande men of Iudah went to the top of the rocke Etam, and sayde to Samson, Knowest thou not that the Philistims are rulers ouer vs? Wherefore then hast thou done thus vnto vs? And he answered them, As they did vnto me, so haue I done vnto them.
Te dongah Judah hlang thawng thum te Etam thaelpang kah thaelvap la suntla uh tih Samson te, “Philisti loh mamih ng'ngol thil te na ming pawt nim, kaimih ham balae na saii he?,” a ti nauh. Tedae amih te Samson loh, “Kai taengah a saii uh vanbanglam ni amih taengah khaw ka saii van,” a ti nah.
12 Againe they sayd vnto him, Wee are come to binde thee, and to deliuer thee into the hande of the Philistims. And Samson sayde vnto them, Sweare vnto me, that yee will not fall vpon me your selues.
Te vaengah, “Nang khih ham neh Philisti kut ah tloeng ham ni ka suntlak uh,” a ti uh. Te dongah amih te Samson loh, “Kai taengah toemngam uh dae, kai tarha nan cuuk uh thil ve,” a ti nah.
13 And they answered him, saying, No, but we will bynde thee and deliuer thee vnto their hande, but we will not kill thee. And they bound him with two newe cordes, and brought him from the rocke.
Te dongah Samson te a doo uh tih, “Nang te dawk kang khih la kang khih uh vetih a kut ah kan tloeng ham ngawn ni, nang te kan duek rhoe kan duek sak uh mahpawh,” a ti nauh. Te dongah anih te rhuivaeh a thai rhoi neh a khih uh tih thaelpang lamloh a khuen uh.
14 When hee came to Lehi, the Philistims shouted against him, and the Spirite of the Lord came vpon him, and the cordes that were vpon his armes, became as flaxe that was burnt with fire: for the bandes loosed from his handes.
Lehi la a pawk vaengah anih te doe hamla Philisti rhoek yuhui uh. Tedae anih te BOEIPA Mueihla loh a thaihtak sak dongah a ban dongkah rhuivaeh te hmai neh a do hlamik bangla poeh. Te dongah a kut dong lamkah a pinyennah te tlae.
15 And he found a new iawebone of an asse, and put forth his hand, and caught it, and slewe a thousand men therewith.
Te vaengah laak kah a kam haeng te a hmuh dongah a kut a yueng tih a loh. Te nen te hlang thawngkhat a ngawn.
16 Then Samson sayd, With the iaw of an asse are heapes vpon heapes: with the iawe of an asse haue I slaine a thousand men.
Te dongah Samson loh, “Laak kah a kam neh paelh paelh, laak kah kam neh hlang thawngkhat ka ngawn coeng,” a ti.
17 And when he had left speaking, hee cast away the iawebone out of his hande, and called that place, Ramath-Lehi.
A thui te a khah nen tah a kut dongkah laak kam te khaw vik a voeih. Te phoeiah tekah hmuen te Ramathlehi a sak.
18 And he was sore a thirst, and called on the Lord, and sayde, Thou hast giuen this great deliuerance into the hand of thy seruaunt: and nowe shall I dye for thirst, and fall into the handes of the vncircumcised?
Te vaengah tui dikdik a halthi hatah BOEIPA te a khue tih, “Na sal kut dongah he loeihnah khaw namah loh muep nam paek coeng. Tedae tuihalh ah ka duek vetih pumdul kut ah ka cungku pawn aya?,” a ti nah.
19 Then God brake the cheeke tooth, that was in the iawe, and water came thereout: and when he had drunke, his Spirit came againe, and he was reuiued: wherefore the name therof is called, Enhakkore, which is in Lehi vnto this day.
Te vaengah Pathen loh Lehi ah a khui a vueh pah tih tui a phuet pah. Samson loh a ok tih a hil a sang daengah ni a hing pueng. Te dongah a ming te Enehakore a sak tih tihnin duela Lehi ah om.
20 And hee iudged Israel in the dayes of the Philistims twentie yeeres.
Philisti tue vaengah Israel te kum kul lai a tloek pah.
