Judges 14
1 And Sampson went down to Thamnatha, and saw a woman in Thamnatha of the daughters of the Philistines.
Sie len ah Samson el tufoki som nu Timnah, ac el liyauk sie mutan fusr Philistia we.
2 And he went up and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Thamnatha of the daughters of the Phylistines; and now take her to me for a wife.
Ke el folokla nu yen sel ah el fahk nu sin papa tumal ac nina kial, “Nga tuh liyauk mutan fusr Philistia se in acn Timnah. Usalu ngan payukyak sel.”
3 And his father and his mother said to him, Are there no daughters of your brethren, and [is there not] a woman of all my people, that you go to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines? And Sampson said to his father, Take her for me, for she [is] right in my eyes.
Na papa tumal ac nina kial eltal siyuk sel, “Efu ku kom suk sie mutan pegan kiom yurin mwet Philistia— Mea wanginna mutan inmasrlon mwet in ota lasr uh kom in eis kiom?” Ac Samson el fahk nu sin papa tumal, “Usalu! El na pa nga lungse uh.”
4 And his father and his mother knew not that it was of the Lord, that he sought to be revenged on the Philistines: and at that time the Philistines lorded it over Israel.
Papa tumal ac nina kial Samson tiana akilen lah LEUM GOD pa kolol Samson ke sulela se lal inge, ke sripen LEUM GOD El suk sie pacl wo in mweuni mwet Philistia. Mweyen ke pacl se inge, mwet Philistia elos leum fin mwet Israel ah.
5 And Sampson and his father and his mother went down to Thamnatha, and he came to the vineyard of Thamnatha; and behold, a young lion roared in meeting him.
Na Samson el tufoki nu Timnah wi papa tumal ac nina kial. Ke elos fahsr ke ima in grape in acn Timnah, Samson el lohngak pusren lion soko ngutngut.
6 And the spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon him, and he crushed him as he would have crushed a kid of the goats, and there was nothing in his hands: and he told not his father and his mother what he had done.
Na ngun lun LEUM GOD sa na sikyang in el ac sang ku lulap nu sel, na el sang na paol ac eiya lion soko ah oana in nani fusr soko. Tusruktu el tiana akkalemye ma el oru inge nu sin papa tumal ku nina kial.
7 And they went down and spoke to the woman, and she was pleasing in the eyes of Sampson.
Na el som ac sramsram nu sin mutan sac, ac el arulana insewowo sel.
8 And after some time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion; and behold, a swarm of bees, and honey [were] in the mouth of the lion.
Kutu len toko, Samson el sifilpa som nu we tuh elan payuk sin mutan sac. Ke el srakna fahsr nu we, el srola liki inkanek ah tuh elan liye lion soko ma el uniya ah. Na el lut ke el liye loanginyeir ac honey ke monin lion soko ah.
9 And he took it into his hands, and went on eating, and he went to his father and his mother, and gave to them, and they did eat; but he told them not that he took the honey out of the mouth of the lion.
Na el lafusak honey inge nu inpaol, ac el fahsr kang inkanek ah. Ke el sun papa tumal ac nina kial ah, el sang kutu naltal, tusruktu el tiana fahk nu seltal lah ma el eis liki monin lion soko ma misa ah.
10 And his father went down to the woman, and Sampson made there a banquet for seven days, for so the young men are used to do.
Na papa tumal ah som nu lohm sin mutan fusr sac, ac Samson el orala sie kufwa we, tuh mukul fusr elos oru ouinge in pacl sac.
11 And it came to pass when they saw him, that they took thirty guests, and they were with him.
Ke mwet Philistia elos liyal Samson, elos supwala mukul fusr tolngoul in muta yorol.
12 And Sampson said to them, I propound you a riddle: if you will indeed tell it me, and discover it within the seven days of the feast, I will you give thirty sheets and thirty changes of raiment.
Na Samson el fahk nu seltal, “Nga ac fahk ma se inge, na kowos palye. Kowos fin ku in konauk kalmac meet liki safla len in kufwa itkosr uh, nga ac sot polo nuknuk linen tolngoul ac nuknuk in ayaol na kato tolngoul.
13 And if you can’t tell it me, you shall give me thirty napkins and thirty changes of apparel: and they said to him, Propound your riddle, and we will hear it.
A kowos fin tia konauk kalmac, na kowos ase nu sik polo nuknuk linen tolngoul ac nuknuk in ayaol na kato tolngoul.” Na elos fahk nu sel, “Fahk kas in palye sacn kut in lohng.”
14 And he said to them, Meat came forth of the eater, and sweetness out of the strong: and they could not tell the riddle for three days.
Na el fahk nu selos, “Liki el su mongo, mwe mongo sikyak, Liki el su fokoko, ma emwem sikyak.” Ke len nufon tolu elos tia ku in konauk kalmac.
15 And it came to pass on the fourth day, that they said to the wife of Sampson, Deceive now your husband, and let him tell you the riddle, lest we burn you and your father's house with fire: did you invite us to do us violence?
Ke len se akakosr, elos fahk nu sin mutan kial Samson, “Kwafe nu sin mukul tomom an tuh elan fahk kalmen kas in palye lal nu sum. Kom fin tia, na kut ac isikkomyak ac lohm sin papa tomom. Mea, komtal sulikutme komtal in tuh sruokani ma lasr?”
16 And Sampson's wife wept before him, and said, You do but hate me, and love me not; for the riddle which you have propounded to the children of my people you have not told me: and Sampson said to her, If I have not told it to my father and my mother, shall I tell it to you?
Na mutan sac el som nu yorol Samson ac tung ye mutal ac fahk nu sel, “Kom kikiap in lungse nga. Kom srungayu! Kom fahkak kas in palye nu sin mwet kawuk luk, a kom tiana fahkak kalmac nu sik!” Na Samson el fahk, “Nga tia pacna fahk kalmac nu sin papa tumuk ac nina kiuk! Efu ku nga in fahk nu sum?”
17 And she wept before him the seven days, during which their banquet lasted: and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she troubled him; and she told it to the children of her people.
Mutan kial ah tung ke len itkosr nufon ma kufwa ah orek ah. Tusruktu ke len se akitkosr ah na Samson el fahkang kalmen ma sac nu sel mweyen el na kwafe na nu sel. Na mutan sac som ac fahkak kalmac ah nu sin mwet Philistia ah.
18 And the men of the city said to him on the seventh day, before sunrise, What [is] sweeter than honey? and what [is] stronger than a lion? and Sampson said to them, If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have known my riddle.
Ouinge, meet liki faht ah tili ke len se akitkosr ah, mukul in siti sac fahk nu sel Samson, “Mea emwem liki honey? Ac mea ku liki lion?” Na Samson el fahk nu selos, “Komtal funu tia orekmakin cow mutan nutik in akfisrasrye infohk uh, Komtal lukun tia ku in konauk kalmac.”
19 And the Spirit of the Lord came upon him powerfully, and he went down to Ascalon, and destroyed of the inhabitants thirty men, and took their garments, and gave the changes of raiment to them that told the riddle; and Sampson was very angry, and went up to the house of his father.
In kitin pacl ah na, ku lun LEUM GOD sikyang in el, na el oatula nu Ashkelon ac uniya mukul tolngoul we. El sarukla nuknuk wowo lalos ac sang lun mwet ma palyeak kas in palu sac. Na el arulana kasrkusrak na folok nu in lohm sin papa tumal ah.
20 And the wife of Sampson was [given] to one of his friends, with whom he was on terms of friendship.
Na mutan kial Samson ah itukyang nu sin mukul se ma tafwel Samson ke alu in marut lal ah.
