< Judges 14 >

1 AND Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines.
शिमशोन तल तिम्नामा गए, र त्यहाँ पलिश्तीहरूका छोरीहरूमध्‍ये एक जना स्‍त्रीलाई तिनले देखे ।
2 And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me to wife.
जब तिनी फर्के, तब तिनले आफ्ना बुबा र आमालाई भने, “मैले तिम्नामा पलिश्तीहरूका छोरीहरूमध्‍ये एक जना स्‍त्रीलाई देखें । तिनलाई मेरो पत्‍नी हुनलाई ल्याइदिनुहोस् ।”
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.
तिनका बुबा र आमाले तिनलाई भने, “के तिम्रा नातेदारहरूका छोरीहरू वा हाम्रा मानिसहरूका माझमा कोही स्‍त्री छैन र? के तिमी खतना नभएका पलिश्तीहरूबाट आफ्नो निम्ति पत्‍नी लिन जाँदैछौ?” शिमशोनले आफ्ना बुबालाई भने, “तिनलाई मेरो निम्ति ल्याइदिनुहोस्, किनकि म जब तिनलाई हेर्छु, मलाई खुशी लाग्‍छ ।”
4 But his father and his mother knew not that it was of the Lord, that he sought an occasion against the Philistines: for at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.
तर तिनका बुबा र आमालाई यो कुरा परमप्रभुबाट आएको हो भन्‍ने कुरा थाहा थिएन, किनकि उहाँले पलिश्तीहरूसँग झगडा ल्याउने योजना गर्नुभएको थियो (किनकि त्यो समयमा पलिश्तीहरूले इस्राएलमाथि शासन गरिरहेको थियो) ।
5 Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and, behold, a young lion roared against him.
तब शिमशोन आफ्ना बुबा र आमासँग तल तिम्नामा गए, र तिनीहरू तिम्नाको दाखबारीमा गए । अनि हेर, त्‍यहाँ जवान सिंहहरूमध्‍ये एउटा माथि आयो र तिनीमाथि गर्जन थाल्यो ।
6 And the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he 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.
परमप्रभुका आत्मा अचानक तिनीमाथि आउनुभयो, र तिनले एउटा सानो पाठोलाई झैं तुरुन्‍तै त्यो सिंहलाई च्यातिदिए, र तिनको हातमा तिनीसित कुनै कुरा पनि थिएन । तर आफूले जे गरेका थिए, त्‍यो तिनले आफ्ना बुबा वा आमालाई भनेनन् ।
7 And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.
तिनी गए र त्यो स्‍त्रीसँग कुरा गरे, र जब शिमशोनले उनलाई हेरे, तब उनले तिनलाई खुसी पारिन् ।
8 And after a time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion.
केही दिनपछि जब तिनी उनलाई विवाह गर्न भनेर फर्के, तब त्‍यो सिंहको सिनु हेर्नलाई तिनी त्‍यतातिर गए । अनि हेर, तिनले छाडेका त्यो सिंहको सिनुमा मौरीको झुण्ड र मह थियो ।
9 And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion.
तिनले आफ्ना हातमा मह लिए र तिनी जाँदा खाँदै गए । जब तिनी आफ्ना बुबा र आमाकहाँ आए, तिनले अलिकति मह तिनीहरूलाई पनि दिए, र तिनीहरूले खाए । तर तिनले त्यो मह सिंहको सिनुबाट लिएका थिए भन्‍ने कुरा तिनले भनेनन् ।
10 So his father went down unto the woman: and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.
शिमशोनका बुबा तल त्यो स्‍त्री भएको ठाउँमा गए, र शिमशोनले त्यहाँ एउटा भोज दिए, किनकि त्‍यो दुलहाले गर्नैपर्ने प्रचलन थियो ।
11 And it came to pass, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.
स्‍त्रीका नातेदारहरूले तिनलाई देख्‍नेबित्तिकै, तिनीहरूले आफ्ना तिस जना साथी तिनीसँग बस्‍नलाई ल्याए ।
12 And Samson said unto them, I will now put forth a riddle unto you: if ye can certainly declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty sheets and thirty change of garments:
शिमशोनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “म तिमीहरूलाई एउटा अड्को थाप्छु । तिमीहरूमध्ये कसैले भोजको सात दिनभित्रमा अड्को फुकाएर त्यसको उत्तर मलाई भन्‍न सक्यौ भने, म तिमीहरूलाई तिसवटा सुतीका लबेदा र तिस थान लुगाहरू दिनेछु ।
13 But if ye cannot declare it me, then shall ye give me thirty sheets and thirty change of garments. And they said unto him, Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it.
तर तिमीहरूले मलाई उत्तर भन्‍न सकेनौ भने, तिमीहरूले मलाई तिसवटा सुतीका लबेदा र तिस थान लुगाहरू दिनुपर्नेछ ।” तिनीहरूले उनलाई भने, “हामीलाई तिम्रो अड्को भन, ताकि हामी त्‍यो सनौं ।”
14 And he said unto them, Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could not in three days expound the riddle.
तिनले उनीहरूलाई भने, “खानेबाट केही खाने कुरो निस्क्यो, बलियोबाट केही गुलियो कुरो निस्क्यो ।” तर तिनका पाहुनाहरूले तिन दिनमा त्यसको उत्तर पाउन सकेनन् ।
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 to take that we have? is it not so?
चौथो दिनमा तिनीहरूले शिमशोनकी पत्‍नीलाई भने, “तिम्रो पतिलाई छल गर ताकि तिनले हामीलाई त्यो अड्कोको उत्तर बताऊन्, नत्रता हामी तिमी र तिम्रो बुबाको घरलाई आगो लगाइदिनेछौं । के हामीलाई गरिब बनाउनलाई तिमीले हामीलाई यहाँ बोलाएकी हौ?”
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 hast not told it me. And he said unto her, Behold, I have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell it thee?
शिमशोनकी पत्‍नी तिनको सामु रुन थालिन् । उनले भनिन्, “तपाईंले मलाई घृणा मात्र गर्नुहुन्छ! तपाईंले मलाई प्रेम गर्नुहुन्‍न । तपाईंले मेरा केही मानिसलाई अड्को थाप्नुभएको छ, तर तपाईंले मलाई उत्तर भन्‍नुभएको छैन ।” शिमशोनले त्यसलाई भने, “यता हेर, मैले मेरो बुबा वा आमालाई त भनेको छैनँ, त के म तिमीलाई भनूँ?”
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 lay sore upon him: and she told the riddle to the children of her people.
भोजको सातौं दिनसम्म त्यो रोई । सातौं दिनमा तिनले उनलाई उत्तर भनिदिए किनभने उनले तिनलाई धेरै दबाब दिइन् । उनले आफ्ना नातेदारहरूलाई उत्तर भनिदिई ।
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.
सातौं दिनमा सूर्य अस्ताउनअगि सहरका मानिसले तिनलाई भने, “महभन्दा गुलियो के हुन्छ र? सिंहभन्दा बलियो के हुन्छ र?” शिमशोनले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूले मेरो कोरेलीलाई नजोतेका भए, तिमीहरूले मेरो अड्कोको उत्तर पाउनेथिएनौ ।”
19 And the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father’s house.
तब परमप्रभुको आत्मा अचानक शक्तिको साथमा शिमशोनमाथि आउनुभयो । शिमशोन तल अश्कलोनमा गए र तिनीहरूका तिस जना मानिसहरूलाई मारे । तिनले तिनीहरूका लुटका सामान लिए, र त्यो अड्को फुकाउने मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका लुगाहरू दिए । रिसले चूर भएर तिनी आफ्ना बुबाका घरमा गए ।
20 But Samson’s wife was given to his companion, whom he had used as his friend.
शिमशोनको साथमा बसेको मित्रलाई तिनको पत्‍नी दिएर पठाइयो ।
