Judges 14
1 And Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines.
Samson nodhi Timna kendo noneno nyako ma pod tin ma nyar jo-Filistia.
2 And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said: 'I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines; now therefore get her for me to wife.'
Kane odwogo to ne onyiso wuon-gi gi min-gi niya, “Aseneno nyar jo-Filistia modak Timna; omiyo koro kelnagouru obed chiega.”
3 Then his father and his mother said unto him: 'Is there never a woman among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines?' And Samson said unto his father: 'Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well.'
Wuon-gi gi min-gi nodwoke niya, “Donge nitiere nyako modimbore kuom wedeni kata kuom jowa duto? Ochuno ni nyaka idhi ir jo-Filistia ma ok oter nyangu mondo iyude dhako?” To Samson nowachone wuon-gi niya, “Miya gouru. En ema owinjore koda.”
4 But his father and his mother knew not that it was of the LORD; for he sought an occasion against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines had rule over Israel.
Jonywolne ne ok ongʼeyo ni ma en dwaro Jehova Nyasaye, mondo omi giyud thuolo mar kedo gi jo-Filistia; nimar e kindeno jo-Israel ne ni e bwo lochgi.
5 Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnah, and came to the vineyards of Timnah; and, behold, a young lion roared against him.
Samson nodhi Timna kaachiel gi wuon-gi kod min-gi. Kane gichiegni chopo e puoth mzabibu mar Timna, apoya nono nyathi sibuor nowuok karuto kochome tir.
6 And the spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as one would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand; but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.
Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuome giteko mane oyiecho sibuor koni gi koni gi lwete nono mana kaka onyalo yiecho nyadiel. To ne ok onyiso wuon mare kata min mare gima ne osetimo.
7 And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.
Eka nodhi mi owuoyo gi nyakono, kendo nohere.
8 And after a while he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion; and, behold, there was a swarm of bees in the body of the lion, and honey.
Bangʼe achien, kane odhi mondo onywome, nolokore mondo one choke sibuor motho. E ringrene kanyo nopo koneno kich mochiek kochokore kuome,
9 And he scraped it out into his hands, and went on, eating as he went, and he came to his father and mother, and gave unto them, and they did eat; but he told them not that he had scraped the honey out of the body of the lion.
mi nowuodho pet kiny motimo mo, mi nochamo kodhi. Kane oriwore gi jonywolne kendo, nomiyogi matin, kendo gin bende negichamo. To ne ok onyisogi nine ogolo mor kichno e choke sibuor motho.
10 And his father went down unto the woman; and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.
Wuon-gi nodhi mondo one nyakono. Kendo Samson noloso nyasi kanyo, nikech mano ema ne en kit wuowi madwaro nyombo.
11 And it came to pass, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.
Kane ochopo, to ne omiye jochungʼ piero adek.
12 And Samson said unto them: 'Let me now put forth a riddle unto you; if ye can declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of raiment;
Samson nowachonegi niya, “We agonue ngero moro. Ka unyalo miya dwoko bangʼ ndalo abiriyo mar nyasini, to anamiu kandhe piero adek gi lewni mabeyo bende piero adek.”
13 but if ye cannot declare it me, then shall ye give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of raiment.' And they said unto him: 'Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it.'
Ka ok unyal miya dwoko, to nyaka umiya kandhe piero adek gi lewni mabeyo bende piero adek. Negiwachone niya, “Nyiswa ngero mari mondo wawinji.”
14 And he said unto them: Out of the eater came forth food, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could not in three days declare the riddle.
Nodwoko niya, “Gima ichamo nowuok kuom jocham ji; gima mit nowuok kuom ratego.” Kuom ndalo adek ne ok ginyal chiwo dwoko.
15 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson's wife: 'Entice thy husband, that he may declare unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father's house with fire; have ye called us hither to impoverish us?'
E odiechiengʼ mar angʼwen, neginyiso chi Samson niya, “Hoo chwori mondo onyiswa tiend ngerono, ka ok kamano, to wabiro wangʼi kaachiel gi od wuonu duto nyaka utho. Ne iluongowa kae mondo imawa?”
16 And Samson's wife wept before him, and said: 'Thou dost but hate me, and lovest me not; thou hast put forth a riddle unto the children of my people, and wilt thou not tell it me?' And he said unto her: 'Behold, I have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell thee?'
Eka chi Samson nodirore kuome, koywak, “Ok idwara! Ok ihera. Isemiyo joga ngero, to pod ok inyisa tiende.” Samson nodwoke niya, Wachni pod ok anyiso wuonwa kata minwa, “angʼo momiyo nyaka anyisi tiende?”
17 And she wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted; and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she pressed him sore; and she told the riddle to the children of her people.
Noywak odiechienge abiriyo duto mar nyasi. Omiyo e odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo nonyise, nikech nosiko mana kokase. Bangʼe nonyiso joge tiend ngerono.
18 And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down: What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said unto them: If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.
Kane chiengʼ pod ok opodho e odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo, jo-dalano nowachone niya, “En angʼo mamit moloyo mor kich? En angʼo maratego moloyo sibuor?” Samson nowachonegi niya, “Kane ok upuro gi nyarocha, to dine ok uyudo tiend ngeroni.”
19 And the spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and smote thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave the changes of raiment unto them that declared the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.
Eka Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuome gi teko. Nodhi Ashkelon, monego ji piero adek ma omagi gigegi mi ochiwo kandhe ne jogo mane owacho tiend ngero. Nodhi e od wuon ka en gi mirima.
20 But Samson's wife was given to his companion, whom he had had for his friend.
Chi Samson nomi osiepne mane jachungʼne kokendo.
