Judges 16
1 Then went Samson to Gazzah, and saw there a harlot, and went in unto her.
Потом отиде Самсон у Газу, и онде виде једну жену курву, и уђе к њој.
2 And it was told to the Gazzites, saying, Samson is come hither: and they compassed him in, and lay in wait for him all the night in the gate of the city, and held themselves quiet all the night, saying, By the time it is light in the morning will we kill him.
И људима у Гази би казано: Дође Самсон овамо. И опколише и вребаше га целу ноћ на вратима градским; и стајаху у потаји целу ноћ говорећи: Док сване, убићемо га.
3 And Samson lay till midnight; but he arose at midnight, and took hold of the doors of the city-gate, and the two door-posts, and tore them away with the bolt, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of the mount that is before Hebron.
Али Самсон спавав до поноћи уста у поноћи, и шчепа врата градска с оба довратка и ишчупа их с преворницом заједно, и метну их на рамена и однесе на врх горе која је према Хеврону.
4 And it came to pass after this, that he loved a woman in the valley of Shorek, whose name was Delilah.
После тога замилова девојку на потоку Сорику, којој беше име Далида.
5 And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said unto her, Persuade him, and see wherein his great strength lieth, and by what means we may prevail over him, that we may bind him to subdue him: and we will give thee every one of us eleven hundred pieces of silver.
И дођоше к њој кнезови филистејски и рекоше јој: Превари га и искушај где му стоји велика снага и како би смо му досадили да га свежемо и савладамо; а ми ћемо ти дати сваки по хиљаду и сто сребрника.
6 And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength lieth, and wherewith thou canst be bound to subdue thee.
И Далида рече Самсону: Хајде кажи ми где стоји твоја велика снага и чим би се могао свезати и савладати.
7 And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with seven moist cords which have not yet been dried, then shall I become weak, and be like any other of mankind.
А Самсон јој рече: Да ме свежу у седам гужава сирових неосушених, онда бих изгубио снагу и био као и други човек.
8 And the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven moist cords which had not yet been dried, and she bound him with them.
И донесоше јој кнезови филистејски седам гужава сирових, још неосушених, и она га свеза њима.
9 And she had men lying in wait, sitting near her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he tore the cords, as a thread of tow is torn when it toucheth the fire; and his strength was not perceived.
А код ње беше заседа у соби; и она му рече: Ето Филистеја на те, Самсоне! А он покида гужве, као што се кида конац од кудеље кад осети ватру; и не дозна се за снагу његову.
10 And Delilah said unto Samson, Behold, thou hast deceived me, and told me lies; now do tell me, I pray thee, wherewith thou canst be bound.
Потом рече Далида Самсону: Гле, преварио си ме, и слагао си ми; него хајде кажи ми чим би се могао свезати.
11 And he said unto her, If they bind me fast with new ropes that have never been used in work, then shall I become weak, and be like any other of mankind.
А он јој рече: Да ме добро свежу новим ужима којима није ништа рађено, тада бих изгубио снагу и био бих као други човек.
12 And Delilah took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said unto him, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And the liers in wait were sitting in the chamber. But he tore them from off his arms like a thread.
И Далида узе нова ужа, и свеза га њима, пак му рече: Ето Филистеји на те Самсоне! А заседа беше у соби. А он раскиде с руку ужа као конац.
13 And Delilah said unto Samson, Hitherto thou hast deceived me, and told me lies; do tell me wherewith thou canst be bound. And he said unto her, If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with the web.
Тада рече Далида Самсону: Једнако ме вараш и лажеш ми; кажи ми чим би се могао свезати? А он јој рече: Да седам прамена косе на глави мојој привијеш на вратило.
14 And she fastened it with the pin, and said unto him, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he awakened out of his sleep, and tore away the pin of the loom, with the web.
И она заглавивши вратило коцем, рече: Ево Филистеја на те, Самсоне! А он се пробуди од сна, и истрже колац и основу и вратило.
15 And she said unto him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when thy heart is not with me? these three times hast thou deceived me, and hast not told me wherein thy great strength lieth.
Опет му она рече: Како можеш говорити: Љубим те, кад срце твоје није код мене? Већ си ме три пута преварио не хотећи ми казати где ти је велика снага.
16 And it came to pass, when she worried him daily with her words, and urged him, that his soul became impatient to die;
И она му досађиваше својим речима сваки дан и наваљиваше на њ, и душа му пренеможе да умре.
17 And he told her all his heart, and said unto her, A razor hath not passed over my head; for a Nazarite of God have I been from my mother's womb; if I were shaved, my strength would depart from me, and I should become weak, and be like all other men.
Те јој отвори цело срце своје, и рече јој: Бритва није никад прешла преко главе моје, јер сам назиреј Божји од утробе матере своје; да се обријем, оставила би ме снага моја и ослабио бих, и био бих као сваки човек
18 And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once; for he hath told me all his heart. Then came the lords of the Philistines up unto her, and brought the money in their hand.
А Далида видећи да јој је отворио цело срце своје, посла и позва кнезове филистејске поручивши им: Ходите сада, јер ми је отворио цело срце своје. Тада дођоше кнезови филистејски к њој и донесоше новце у рукама својим.
19 And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called a man, and caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to subdue him, and his strength departed from him.
А она га успава на крилу свом, и дозва човека те му обрија седам прамена косе с главе, и она га прва свлада кад га остави снага његова.
20 And she said, The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and thought, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself free. But he knew not that the Lord had departed from him.
И она рече: Ето Филистеја на те, Самсоне! А он пробудивши се од сна рече: Изаћи ћу као и пре и отећу се; јер не знаше да је Господ одступио од њега.
21 And the Philistines seized him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gazzah, and bound him with fetters of copper; and he had to grind in the prison-house.
Тада га ухватише Филистеји, и ископаше му очи, и одведоше га у Газу и оковаше га у двоје вериге бронзане; и мељаше у тамници.
22 But the hair of his head began to grow again after it was shaved off.
А коса на глави његовој поче расти као што је била кад га обријаше.
23 And the lords of the Philistines gathered themselves together to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice; and they said, Our god hath delivered into our hand Samson our enemy.
И кнезови филистејски скупише се да принесу велику жртву Дагону богу свом, и да се провеселе, па рекоше: Предаде нам бог наш у руке наше Самсона непријатеља нашег.
24 And when the people saw him, they praised their god; for they said, Our god hath delivered into our hand our enemy, and the destroyer of our country, and him who hath slain so many of us.
Такође и народ видевши га хваљаше бога свог говорећи: Предаде нам бог наш у руке наше непријатеља нашег и затирача земље наше и који поби толике између нас.
25 And it came to pass, when their heart was merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make sport for us. And they called for Samson out of the prison-house; and he made sport before them; and they placed him between the pillars.
И кад се развесели срце њихово рекоше: Зовите Самсона да нам игра. И дозваше Самсона из тамнице да им игра, и наместише га међу два стуба.
26 And Samson said unto the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me [to go] and let me feel the pillars whereupon the house is supported, that I may lean upon them.
Тада Самсон рече момку који га држаше за руку: Пусти ме, да опипам стубове на којима стоји кућа, да се наслоним на њих.
27 Now the house was full of men and women; and there were all the lords of the Philistines; and upon the roof were about three thousand men and women, that looked on while Samson made sport.
А кућа беше пуна људи и жена и сви кнезови филистејски беху онде; и на крову беше око три хиљаде људи и жена, који гледаху како Самсон игра.
28 And Samson called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord Eternal, remember me, I pray thee, and do thou strengthen me only this once, O God, that I may be avenged for one of my two eyes on the Philistines.
Тада Самсон завапи ка Господу и рече: Господе, Господе! Опомени ме се, молим те, и укрепи ме, молим те, само сада, о Боже! Да се осветим једанпут Филистејима за оба ока своја.
29 And Samson threw his arms around the two middle pillars upon which the house was supported, and he leaned on them, [on] one with his right hand, and [on] the other with his left.
И загрли Самсон два стуба средња, на којима стајаше кућа, и наслони се на њих, на један десном а на други левом руком својом.
30 And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bent [them] with might, and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead whom he slew at his death were more than those whom he had slain in his life.
Па онда рече Самсон: Нека умрем с Филистејима. И належе јако, и паде кућа на кнезове и на сав народ који беше у њој; и би мртвих које поби умирући више него оних које поби за живота свог.
31 Then came down his brothers and all the house of his father, and they took him up, and carried him up, and buried him between Zor'ah and Eshtaol, in the burying-place of Manoach his father. And he had judged Israel twenty years.
После дођоше браћа његова и сав дом оца његовог, и узеше га, и вративши се погребоше га између Сараје и Естола у гробу Маноја оца његовог. А он би судија Израиљу двадесет година.
