< Judges 15 >
1 But it came to pass after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a kid; and he said: 'I will go in to my wife into the chamber.' But her father would not suffer him to go in.
Sima na mwa mikolo, na eleko oyo bakataka ble, Samison azwaki mwana ntaba mpe akendeki kotala mwasi na ye. Alobaki: — Nalingi kokota na shambre epai wapi mwasi na ngai alalaka. Kasi tata ya mwasi na ye apesaki ye nzela te.
2 And her father said: 'I verily thought that thou hadst utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to thy companion; is not her younger sister fairer than she? take her, I pray thee, instead of her.'
Alobaki na Samison: — Nakanisaki penza ete olingaka ye te, yango wana nabalisaki ye epai ya moko kati na baninga na yo, oyo obengisaki na feti. Tala leki na ye ya mwasi, aleki ye na kitoko te? Zwa ye kaka.
3 And Samson said unto them: 'This time shall I be quits with the Philistines, when I do them a mischief.'
Samison alobaki na bango: — Ya mbala oyo, nakozala ata na ngambo moko te liboso ya bato ya mokili ya Filisitia; nakeyi kosala bango mabe.
4 And Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the midst between every two tails.
Samison abimaki mpe akangaki bambwa ya zamba nkama misato, akangisaki yango mibale-mibale na mikila mpe atiaki koni na kati-kati ya mikila mibale-mibale ya bambwa yango.
5 And when he had set the torches on fire, he let them go into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks and the standing corn, and also the oliveyards.
Apelisaki koni yango mpe atikaki bambwa ya zamba kati na bilanga ya ble ya bato ya Filisitia, oyo esili kokomela. Atumbaki maboke ya ble oyo batiaki na mipiku mpe ble oyo babukaki nanu te, banzete ya vino mpe banzete ya olive.
6 Then the Philistines said: 'Who hath done this?' And they said: 'Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he hath taken his wife, and given her to his companion.' And the Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire.
Bato ya Filisitia batunaki: — Nani asali boye? Bazongiselaki bango: — Ezali Samison, bokilo ya moto moko ya Timina; pamba te abalisaki mwasi ya Samison epai ya moko kati na baninga oyo Samison abengisaki na feti. Bato ya Filisitia bakendeki mpe batumbaki mwasi yango elongo na tata na ye kino bakufaki.
7 And Samson said unto them: 'If ye do after this manner, surely I will be avenged of you, and after that I will cease.'
Samison alobaki na bango: « Lokola bosali boye, nakotika te kino nakozongisela bino mabe na mabe. »
8 And he smote them hip and thigh with a great slaughter; and he went down and dwelt in the cleft of the rock of Etam.
Samison abundisaki bango mpe abomaki ebele kati na bango. Bongo akendeki mpe avandaki kati na lidusu ya mabanga, na Etami.
9 Then the Philistines went up, and pitched in Judah, and spread themselves against Lehi.
Bato ya Filisitia bayaki mpe batongaki molako na bango kati na etuka ya Yuda, bapanzanaki kino na etuka ya Leyi.
10 And the men of Judah said: 'Why are ye come up against us?' And they said: 'To bind Samson are we come up, to do to him as he hath done to us.'
Bato ya Yuda batunaki: — Mpo na nini boyei kobundisa biso? Bato ya Filisitia bazongiselaki bango: — Toyei kokanga Samison na basinga mpo ete tosala ye ndenge asalaki biso.
11 Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and said to Samson: 'Knowest thou not that the Philistines are rulers over us? what then is this that thou hast done unto us?' And he said unto them: 'As they did unto me, so have I done unto them.'
Bato nkoto misato ya Yuda bakendeki na lidusu ya mabanga ya Etami, mpe balobaki na Samison: — Oyebi te ete bato ya Filisitia bazali kokonza biso? Likambo nini osali biso? Samison azongisaki: — Nazongiseli bango makambo oyo bango basalaki ngai.
12 And they said unto him: 'We are come down to bind thee, that we may deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines.' And Samson said unto them: 'Swear unto me, that ye will not fall upon me yourselves.'
Bato ya Yuda balobaki na Samison: — Toyei mpo na kokanga yo na basinga mpe kokaba yo na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia. Samison alobaki na bango: — Bolapa ndayi liboso na ngai ete bokoboma ngai te bino moko.
13 And they spoke unto him, saying: 'No; but we will bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hand; but surely we will not kill thee.' And they bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock.
Bato ya Yuda bazongisaki: — Iyo! Tokoboma yo te. Tolingi kaka kokanga yo na basinga mpe kokaba yo na maboko na bango. Bongo bakangaki ye na basinga mibale ya sika mpe babimisaki ye na lidusu ya mabanga.
14 When he came unto Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him; and the spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and the ropes that were upon his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands dropped from off his hands.
Tango bakomaki pembeni ya etuka ya Leyi, bato ya Filisitia bayaki kokutana na ye na koganga. Molimo na Yawe akitelaki ye na nguya, mpe basinga oyo ekangaki maboko na ye ekatanaki lokola basinga ya lino oyo eziki na moto, mpe ekweyaki wuta na maboko na ye.
15 And he found a new jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand, and took it, and smote a thousand men therewith.
Samison amonaki mokuwa ya mobesu ya mbanga ya ane, asembolaki loboko na ye, alokotaki mokuwa yango mpe abomaki na yango bato nkoto moko.
16 And Samson said: With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jawbone of an ass have I smitten a thousand men.
Samison alobaki: « Na mokuwa ya mobesu ya mbanga ya ane, nakangisi bango mipiku na mipiku; na mokuwa ya mobesu ya mbanga ya ane, nabomi bato nkoto moko. »
17 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath-lehi.
Tango asilisaki koloba, abwakaki mokuwa yango mosika mpe apesaki esika yango kombo « Ramati-Leyi. »
18 And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said: 'Thou hast given this great deliverance by the hand of Thy servant; and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?'
Lokola azalaki na posa makasi ya mayi, asambelaki Yawe: « Opesi mosali na Yo elonga oyo monene; boni, nakufa sik’oyo na posa ya mayi mpe nakweya na maboko ya bato oyo bakatama ngenga te? »
19 But God cleaved the hollow place that is in Lehi, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came back, and he revived; wherefore the name thereof was called En-hakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day.
Bongo Nzambe afungolaki libanga oyo ezalaki kati na Leyi, mpe libanga yango ebimisaki mayi. Tango Samison amelaki mayi, makasi na ye ezongaki mpe azwaki lisusu bomoi. Boye abengaki etima yango Eyini-Akore.
20 And he judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years.
Samison akambaki Isalaele mibu tuku mibale, wana bato ya Filisitia bazalaki kokonza mokili.
