< Judges 14 >

1 And Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines.
И сниде Сампсон во Фамнафу и виде жену во Фамнафе от дщерей Филистимских, и угодна бысть пред ним.
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.
И взыде и поведа отцу своему и матери своей, и рече: жену видех во Фамнафе от дщерей Филистимских, и ныне поимите ю мне в жену.
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.
И рече ему отец его и мати его: еда несть дщерей от братии твоея и от всех людий моих жены, яко ты идеши пояти жену от дщерей иноплеменников необрезанных? И рече Сампсон ко отцу своему: сию поими мне, яко та угодна есть пред очима моима.
4 But his father and his mother knew not that it was of Yhwh, that he sought an occasion against the Philistines: for at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.
Отец же его и мати его не разумеша, яко сие от Господа есть, яко отмщения он ищет от Филистимлян: в то бо время владяху Филистимляне сыны Израилевыми.
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.
И сниде Сампсон и отец его и мати его во Фамнафу, и приидоша до винограда Фамнафа: и се, львичищь рыкающь во сретение ему.
6 And the Spirit of Yhwh 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.
И сниде на него Дух Господень, и растерза его яко козлища от коз, и ничтоже бяше в руку его: и не поведа отцу своему и матери своей, еже сотвори.
7 And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.
И поидоша и рекоша жене, и угодна бысть пред очима Сампсона.
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.
И возвратися по днех пояти ю, и обратися видети труп львов, и се, рой пчел во устех львовых и мед:
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.
и изя его от уст его в руце свои, и идяше идый и ядый: и пойде ко отцу своему и матери своей, и даде им, и ядоша: и не поведа им, яко от уст львовых изя сей мед.
10 So his father went down unto the woman: and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.
И сниде отец его к жене, и сотвори Сампсон тамо пир седмь дний, яко тако творят юношы:
11 And it came to pass, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.
и бысть внегда боятися им его, приставиша к нему тридесять другов, и быша с ним:
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:
и рече им Сампсон: предлагаю ныне вам гадание, и аще отгадающе поведите мне сие в седмь дний пира и обрящете, дам вам тридесять поняв и тридесять риз одежд:
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.
аще же не возможете сие поведати мне, дадите вы мне тридесять поняв и тридесять риз изменных. И рекоша ему: предложи гадание твое, и услышим е.
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.
И глагола им: от ядущаго ядомое изыде, и от крепкаго изыде сладкое. И не могоша поведати гадания до трех дний.
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?
И бысть в день четвертый, и рекоша жене Сампсонове: прельсти мужа своего, и да повесть тебе гадание, да не сожжем тя и дом отца твоего огнем: или оубожити призвасте ны?
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?
И плакася жена Сампсонова пред ним и рече: разве возненавидел еси мене и не возлюбил еси мене, яко гадания, еже еси предложил сыном людий моих, не поведал еси его мне. И рече ей Сампсон: се, отцу моему и матери моей не поведах сего, и тебе ли повем?
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.
И плакася пред ним седмь дний, в няже бе им пир. И бысть в день седмый, и поведа ей, яко стужи ему: и та поведа сыном людий своих.
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.
И рекоша ему мужие градстии в день седмый прежде зашествия солнца: что слаждше меда? И что креплее льва? И рече им Сампсон: аще не бысте орали юницею моею, не бысте уведали гадания моего.
19 And the Spirit of Yhwh 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.
И нападе на него Дух Господень, и сниде во Аскалон, и изби тамо тридесять мужей, и взя ризы их, и даде ризы поведавшым гадание. И разгневася яростию Сампсон, и взыде в дом отца своего.
20 But Samson’s wife was given to his companion, whom he had used as his friend.
Жена же Сампсонова иде за инаго мужа, иже бысть един от другов его.
