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.
Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe, le luxaɣi la, Samson tsɔ gbɔ̃vi aɖe yi be yeatsɔ ana ye srɔ̃ eye yeadɔ kplii gake srɔ̃a fofo meɖe mɔ nɛ o.
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.
Egblɔ na Samson be, “Mebu xaa be ɖe nèlé fui eya ta metsɔe na xɔ̃wò wòɖe. Nɔvia suetɔ hã li, ame si dze tugbe wui eya ta àte ŋu aɖe eya boŋ.”
3 Then Samson saide vnto them, Nowe am I more blamelesse then the Philistims: therefore will I doe them displeasure.
Nu sia do dɔmedzoe na Samson ŋutɔ eya ta wòblu ɖe wo ta gblɔ be, “Ne nya aɖe dzɔ ɖe mia dzi fifia la, migabu fɔm o!”
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.
Nu sia ta Samson yi ɖalé abei alafa etɔ̃, sa kɔ abei eve ɖe sia ɖe ƒe asikewo ɖekae eye wòbla akakati ɖeka ɖe abei eve ɖe sia ɖe siwo ƒe asikewo wòsa ɖekae la ŋu.
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.
Esi dzo tɔ akakati ɖe sia ɖe eye wòna abeiawo ƒu du yi Filistitɔwo ƒe agblewo me eye wotɔ dzo lu siwo womexa haɖe o kple wainkawo kpakple amitiwo.
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.
Esi Filistitɔwo bia be ame kae wɔ esia la, woɖo eŋu na wo be, “Samson ye elabena srɔ̃a fofo tsɔ srɔ̃a na ŋutsu bubu wòɖe.” Ale Filistitɔwo tɔ dzo nyɔnuvi la kple fofoa kple woƒe aƒe.
7 And Samson saide vnto them, Though yee haue done this, yet wil I be auenged of you, and then I wil cease.
Samson ka atam be, “Magabia hlɔ̃ kokoko hafi adzudzɔ.”
8 So hee smote them hippe and thigh with a mightie plague: then hee went and dwelt in the top of the rocke Etam.
Eya ta Samson dza ali kple ata na wo hewu ame geɖewo eye wòyi ɖanɔ agado aɖe me le Etam.
9 Then the Philistims came vp, and pitched in Iudah, and were spred abroad in Lehi.
Filistitɔwo va ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Yuda eye wokaka ɖe Lehi.
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.
Yudatɔwo bia wo be, “Nu ka dim miele le afi sia?” Filistitɔwo ɖo eŋu be, “Míeva be míalé Samson eye míawɔe abe ale si wòwɔ mí ene.”
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.
Ale Yuda ŋutsu alafa etɔ̃ yi Samson gbɔ le agado la me le Etam. Wobiae be, “Nu kae nye nu sia si nèle mía wɔm? Ɖe mènya be Filistitɔwoe le mía dzi ɖum oa?” Samson ɖo eŋu be, “Nu si wowɔm teƒe koe meɖo na wo.”
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.
Wogblɔ nɛ be, “Míeva be míalé wò eye míatsɔ wò ade asi na Filistitɔwo.” Samson gblɔ be, “Mika atam nam be miawo miawum o.”
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.
Woɖo eŋu be, “Míelɔ̃. Ɖe ko míabla wò, atsɔ wò ade asi na wo. Míawu wò o.” Ale woblae kple atagbika yeye eve eye wokplɔe dzoe tso agakpe la dzi.
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.
Esi Samson kple Yuda ŋutsu siwo lée ɖo Lehi la, Filistitɔwo tso aseye kple ɣli. Enumake Yehowa ƒe ŋusẽ gaɖo Samson me eye atagbika siwo wotsɔ blae la tso abe ɖetika ko wonye ene eye woge le alɔnu nɛ!
15 And he found a new iawebone of an asse, and put forth his hand, and caught it, and slewe a thousand men therewith.
Etsɔ tedzi kuku aɖe ƒe glãƒu si nɔ anyigba la eye wotsɔe wu Filistitɔ akpe ɖeka.
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.
Emegbe la Samson gblɔ be, “Tedzi glãe metsɔ wu ame akpe ɖekae!”
17 And when he had left speaking, hee cast away the iawebone out of his hande, and called that place, Ramath-Lehi.
Esi wòwu nya siawo gbɔgblɔ nu la, eɖe asi le tedziglã la ŋu da ɖi. Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, woyɔa teƒe ma be, “Ramat Lehi,” si gɔmee nye “Tedziglãtogbɛ.”
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?
Tsikɔ de asi Samson wuwu me vevie eya ta wòdo gbe ɖa na Yehowa gblɔ be, “Èɖe Israel nukutɔe to dzinye va se ɖe egbe! Ɖe maku azɔ le tsikɔwuame ta eye mage ɖe trɔ̃subɔla siawo si mea?”
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.
Ale Mawu na tsi do tso agakpe aɖe me eye esi Samson noe la, agbe gaɖo eme. Ena ŋkɔ teƒea be “En Hakore” si gɔmee nye, “Gbedoɖala Ƒe Vudo.” Eye teƒe sia gali va se ɖe egbe.
20 And hee iudged Israel in the dayes of the Philistims twentie yeeres.
Samson nye ʋɔnudrɔ̃la na Israel le ƒe blaeve siwo kplɔ nya siawo ɖo la me, ke Filistitɔwo gaɖu Israelnyigba la dzi kokoko.
