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.
Toda pripetilo se je čez nekaj časa, ob času pšenične žetve, da je Samson s kozličem obiskal svojo ženo in rekel: »Šel bom noter k svoji ženi v sobo.« Toda njen oče mu ni dovolil vstopiti.
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.
Njen oče je rekel: »Resnično sem mislil, da si jo popolnoma zasovražil, zato sem jo dal tvojemu družabniku. Mar ni njena mlajša sestra boljša od nje? Vzemi njo, prosim te, namesto nje.«
3 Then Samson saide vnto them, Nowe am I more blamelesse then the Philistims: therefore will I doe them displeasure.
Samson je glede njih rekel: »Sedaj bom bolj brez krivde kakor Filistejci, čeprav jim storim zlo.«
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.
Samson je odšel in ujel tristo lisic in vzel kose tlečega lesa in obrnil rep k repu in kos tlečega lesa položil v sredo med dva repa.
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.
Ko je kose tlečega lesa zažgal, jih je spustil v stoječe žito Filistejcev in zažgal tako snope, kot tudi stoječe žito, z vinogradi in oljkami.
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.
Potem so Filistejci rekli: »Kdo je to storil?« Odgovorili so: »Samson, zet Timnčana, ker je ta vzel njegovo ženo in jo dal njegovemu družabniku.« In Filistejci so prišli gor in z ognjem zažgali njo in njenega očeta.
7 And Samson saide vnto them, Though yee haue done this, yet wil I be auenged of you, and then I wil cease.
Samson jim je rekel: »Čeprav ste to storili, se vam bom vendarle maščeval in potem bom odnehal.«
8 So hee smote them hippe and thigh with a mightie plague: then hee went and dwelt in the top of the rocke Etam.
Udaril jih je, golen in stegno, z velikim pokolom in odšel dol ter prebival na vrhu skale Etám.
9 Then the Philistims came vp, and pitched in Iudah, and were spred abroad in Lehi.
Potem so Filistejci odšli gor, se utaborili v Judu in se razširili v 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.
Možje iz Juda so rekli: »Zakaj ste prišli gor zoper nas?« Odgovorili so: »Gor smo prišli, da zvežemo Samsona, da mu storimo, kakor je on storil nam.«
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.
Potem je tri tisoč mož iz Juda odšlo na vrh skale Etám in reklo Samsonu: »Mar ne veš, da so Filistejci vladarji nad nami? Kaj je to, kar si nam storil?« Rekel jim je: »Kakor so storili meni, tako sem jaz storil njim.«
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.
Rekli so mu: »Prišli smo dol, da te zvežemo, da te lahko izročimo v roko Filistejcev.« Samson jim je rekel: »Prisezite mi, da vi sami ne boste padli name.«
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.
Odgovorili so mu, rekoč: »Ne, temveč te bomo trdno zvezali in te izročili v njihovo roko, toda mi te zagotovo ne bomo ubili.« Zvezali so ga z dvema novima vrvema in ga od skale privedli gor.
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.
Ko je prišel v Lehi, so Filistejci zavpili zoper njega in nadenj je mogočno prišel Gospodov Duh in vrvi, ki so bile na njegovih laktih, so postale kakor lan, ki je bil zažgan z ognjem in njegove vezi so se sprostile iz njegovih rok.
15 And he found a new iawebone of an asse, and put forth his hand, and caught it, and slewe a thousand men therewith.
Našel je novo oslovsko čeljustnico, iztegnil svojo roko, jo vzel in z njo usmrtil tisoč mož.
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.
Samson je rekel: »Z oslovsko čeljustnico, kupi na kupe, z oslovsko čeljustjo sem umoril tisoč mož.«
17 And when he had left speaking, hee cast away the iawebone out of his hande, and called that place, Ramath-Lehi.
Ko je končal z govorjenjem, se je pripetilo, da je iz svoje roke odvrgel čeljustnico in ta kraj imenoval Ramát Lehi.
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?
Bil pa je silno žejen in klical h Gospodu ter rekel: »Ti si dal to veliko osvoboditev v roko svojega služabnika in sedaj ali naj umrem od žeje in padem v roko neobrezancev?«
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.
Toda Bog je razklal votel kraj, ki je bil v Čestjustnici in iz njega je pritekla voda. Ko jo je pil, je njegov duh ponovno prišel in bil je oživljen. Zato je njegovo ime imenoval En Koré, ki je v Lehiju, do današnjega dne.
20 And hee iudged Israel in the dayes of the Philistims twentie yeeres.
V dneh Filistejcev je Izraelu sodil dvajset let.
