Judges 13
1 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of Yhwh; And Yhwh delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
Na ka mahi kino ano nga tamariki a Iharaira i te tirohanga a Ihowa, a ka hoatu ratou e Ihowa ki te ringa o nga Pirihitini, e wha tekau tau.
2 And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and bare not.
Na ko tetahi tangata o Toraha no te hapu o nga Rani, tona ingoa ko Manoa, he pakoko hoki tana wahine, kahore ano i whanau tamariki.
3 And the angel of Yhwh appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.
Na ka puta te anahera a Ihowa ki te wahine, ka mea ki a ia, Na, he pakoko koe, kahore hoki i whanau tamariki: otiia ka hapu koe, a ka whanau he tama.
4 Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing:
Na kia tupato, kaua e inumia he waina, he wai whakahaurangi ranei; kaua ano e kainga tetahi mea poke.
5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.
No te mea ka hapu koe, a ka whanau he tama; na kaua he heu e pa ki tona matenga: hei Natari hoki tena tamaiti ki te Atua no te kopu mai ano: a mana e timata te whakaora i a Iharaira i roto i te ringa o nga Pirihitini.
6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name:
Na haere ana te wahine, korero ana ki tana tahu, ka mea, Ko te tangata ra a te Atua i puta mai nei ki ahau, tona ahua kei te ahua o te anahera a te Atua; nui rawa te wehi; heoi kihai ahau i ui no hea ia, kihai ano i korerotia mai e ia tona ingoa ki ahau.
7 But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death.
Otiia i ki mai ia ki ahau, Ka hapu koe, a ka whanau he tama; na kaua koe e inu i te waina, i te wai whakahaurangi ranei, kaua ano hoki e kainga tetahi mea poke; he Natari hoki tena tamaiti ki te Atua no te kopu mai ano a mate noa.
8 Then Manoah intreated Yhwh, and said, O my Lord, let the man of God which thou didst send come again unto us, and teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be born.
Na ka inoi a Manoa ki a Ihowa, ka mea, Tena ra, e toku Ariki, kia haere mai ano ki a maua te tangata a te Atua i tonoa mai na e koe, hei whakaatu i tetahi tikanga ki a maua mo te tamaiti ka whanau nei.
9 And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband was not with her.
A i rongo te Atua ki te reo o Manoa, a ka haere mai ano te anahera a te Atua ki te wahine i a ia e noho ana i te parae; ko Manoa ia, ko tana tahu, kahore i a ia.
10 And the woman made haste, and ran, and shewed her husband, and said unto him, Behold, the man hath appeared unto me, that came unto me the other day.
Na hohoro tonu te wahine, oma ana, korero ana ki tana tahu, ka mea ki a ia, Nana, kua puta ki ahau te tangata i haere mai ra ki ahau i tera ra.
11 And Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said unto him, Art thou the man that spakest unto the woman? And he said, I am.
Na ka whakatika a Manoa, a aru ana i tana wahine, a ka tae ki taua tangata, ka mea ki a ia, Ko koe ranei te tangata i korero ra ki te wahine nei? Ka mea ia, Ae, ko ahau.
12 And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him?
Na ka mea a Manoa, Kia mana ra tau kupu. Tena koa nga tikanga mo te tamaiti, he aha he mahi mana?
13 And the angel of Yhwh said unto Manoah, Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware.
Ka mea te anahera a Ihowa ki a Manoa, Kia tupato te wahine i nga mea katoa i korero ai ahau ki a ia.
14 She may not eat of any thing that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: all that I commanded her let her observe.
Kaua ia e kai i tetahi mea i puta mai i te waina; kaua ano e inumia e ia he waina, he wai whakahaurangi ranei, kaua ano hoki ia e kai i tetahi mea poke: kia mau ia ki nga mea katoa i kiia atu e ahau ki a ia.
15 And Manoah said unto the angel of Yhwh, I pray thee, let us detain thee, until we shall have made ready a kid for thee.
Na, ka mea a Manoa ki te anahera a Ihowa, Me pupuri maua i a koe, kia taka ai e maua he kuao koati mau.
16 And the angel of Yhwh said unto Manoah, Though thou detain me, I will not eat of thy bread: and if thou wilt offer a burnt offering, thou must offer it unto Yhwh. For Manoah knew not that he was an angel of Yhwh.
Ka mea te anahera a Ihowa ki a Manoa, Ahakoa pupuri noa koe i ahau, e kore ahau e kai i tau taro: a ki te meatia e koe he tahunga tinana, me whakaeke ma Ihowa. Kihai hoki a Manoa i mohio he anahera ia na Ihowa.
17 And Manoah said unto the angel of Yhwh, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour?
Na ka mea a Manoa ki te anahera a Ihowa, Ko wai tou ingoa, kia whakahonore ai maua i a koe, ina mana au korero?
18 And the angel of Yhwh said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret?
Ka mea te anahera a Ihowa ki a ia, He aha toku ingoa i uia ai e koe; he mea whakamiharo nei hoki?
19 So Manoah took a kid with a grain offering, and offered it upon a rock unto Yhwh: and the angel did wondrously; and Manoah and his wife looked on.
Heoi ka tikina e Manoa tetahi kuao koati, me tetahi whakahere totokore, a whakaekea ana e ia ki runga ki te kamaka ki a Ihowa: na he mea whakamiharo te mahi a taua anahera, me te titiro ano a Manoa raua ko tana wahine.
20 For it came to pass, when the flame went up toward heaven from off the altar, that the angel of Yhwh ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on it, and fell on their faces to the ground.
I te putanga ake hoki o te mura i runga i te aata whaka te rangi, na kua kake atu te anahera a Ihowa i roto i te mura o te aata. A, i te kitenga o Manoa raua ko tana wahine, tapapa ana raua ki te whenua.
21 But the angel of Yhwh did no more appear to Manoah and to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was an angel of Yhwh.
Kihai ia i puta mai ano te anahera a Ihowa ki a Manoa raua ko tana wahine. Katahi a Manoa ka mohio he anahera ia na Ihowa.
22 And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.
Na ka mea a Manoa ki tana wahine, Ka mate rawa taua; kua kite hoki taua i te Atua.
23 But his wife said unto him, If Yhwh were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a grain offering at our hands, neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor would as at this time have told us such things as these.
Ano ra ko tana wahine ki a ia, Me i pai a Ihowa ki te whakamate i a taua, kihai i tangohia e ia te tahunga tinana me te whakahere totokore i o taua ringa, kihai ano hoki i whakakitea mai e ia enei mea katoa ki a taua, kihai hoki i korerotia mai inaianei ki a taua nga mea penei i enei.
24 And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, And Yhwh blessed him.
Na ka whanau taua wahine, he tama, a huaina ana e ia tona ingoa ko Hamahona: na ka tupu taua tamaiti, a ka manaakitia e Ihowa.
25 And the Spirit of Yhwh began to move him at times in the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol.
Na ka timata te wairua o Ihowa te whakaohooho i a ia i te puni o Rana, i te takiwa o Toraha, o Ehetaoro.
