Judges 13
1 And the sons of Israel add to do evil in the eyes of YHWH, and YHWH gives them into the hand of the Philistines [for] forty years.
Ndị Izrel mehiekwara ọzọ nʼihu onyenwe anyị. Nʼihi nke a, Onyenwe anyị kwenyere ka ndị Filistia merie ha. Ndị Izrel nọrọ nʼokpuru ọchịchị ha iri afọ anọ.
2 And there is a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danite, and his name [is] Manoah, his wife [is] barren, and has not borne;
Nʼoge ahụ, o nwere otu nwoke onye Zora aha ya bụ Manoa. Nwoke a si nʼagbụrụ Dan, nwunye ya bụ nwanyị aga nke mere na ọ mụtaghị nwa.
3 and the Messenger of YHWH appears to the woman and says to her, “Now behold, you [are] barren and have not borne; when you have conceived, then you have borne a son.
Otu ụbọchị, mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị gosiri nwanyị a onwe ya, gwa ya okwu sị, “Ọ bụ ezie na ị bụ nwanyị aga nke mere na ị mụtaghị nwa ma na mgbe na-adịghị anya, ị ga-atụrụ ime mụta nwa.
4 And now, please take heed and do not drink wine and strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing,
Ma site ugbu a, gaa nʼihu, aṅụkwala ihe ọṅụṅụ ọbụla na-aba nʼanya. Erikwala ihe ọbụla rụrụ arụ.
5 for behold, you are conceiving and bearing a son, and a razor does not go up on his head, for the youth is a Nazarite to God from the womb, and he begins to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.”
Ị ga-atụrụ ime, mụkwaa nwa nwoke, onye agụba agaghị aba nʼisi ya, nʼihi na ọ ga-abụ onye e kewapụrụ nye Chineke site nʼime akpanwa. Ọ ga-ebute ụzọ nʼịgbapụta Izrel site nʼaka ndị Filistia.”
6 And the woman comes and speaks to her husband, saying, “A Man of God has come to me, and His appearance [is] as the appearance of the Messenger of God, very fearful, and I have not asked Him where He [is] from, and he has not declared His Name to me;
Nwanyị ahụ gbara ọsọ gbalaa gaa gwa di ya sị ya, “Otu onye nke Chineke egosila m onwe ya. O dokwara m anya na ọ bụ mmụọ ozi Chineke, nʼihi na ọ dị oke ebube nʼile anya. Ma ajụghị m ya ebe o siri bịa, ọ gwakwaghị m aha ya.
7 and He says to me, Behold, you are pregnant, and bearing a son, and now do not drink wine and strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing, for the youth is a Nazarite to God from the womb until the day of his death.”
Kama ọ sịrị m, ‘Ị ga-adị ime, mụta nwa nwoke. Ma ugbu a, ị gaghị aṅụ mmanya vaịnị maọbụ ihe ọbụla na-aba nʼanya, maọbụ rie ihe ọbụla rụrụ arụ, nʼihi na nwantakịrị ahụ ga-abụ onye e doro nsọ nye Chineke, site nʼime akpanwa ruo nʼọnwụ ya.’”
8 And Manoah makes plea to YHWH and says, “O my Lord, the Man of God whom You sent, please let Him come in again to us, and direct us what we do to the youth who is born.”
Mgbe ahụ, Manoa kpere ekpere rịọọ Onyenwe anyị arịrịọ sị, “Biko, Onyenwe anyị, ka onye nke Chineke ahụ i ziteere anyị bịaghachikwa ọzọ, kuziere anyị otu anyị ga-esi zụlite nwa nwoke a ga-amụta.”
9 And God listens to the voice of Manoah, and the Messenger of God comes again to the woman, and she [is] sitting in a field, and her husband Manoah is not with her,
Chineke zara ekpere ya. Mmụọ ozi ahụ bịakwutekwara nwunye Manoa mgbe ọ nọ nʼubi; maọbụ naanị ya nọ, di ya anọghị ya.
10 and the woman hurries, and runs, and declares [it] to her husband, and says to him, “Behold, He has appeared to me—the Man who came on [that] day to me.”
Ya mere, nwanyị ahụ gbara ọsọ gaa gwa di ya sị, “Lee, nwoke ahụ bịakwutere m ụbọchị a, abịala ọzọ!”
11 And Manoah rises, and goes after his wife, and comes to the Man, and says to Him, “Are you the Man who spoke to the woman?” And He says, “I [am].”
Manoa biliri, soro nwunye ya. Mgbe o bịarutere ebe nwoke ahụ nọ, ọ jụrụ ya ajụjụ sị, “Ọ bụ gị bụ nwoke ahụ gwara nwunye m okwu nʼoge gara aga?” Ọ zara sị ya, “E, ọ bụ m.”
12 And Manoah says, “Now let Your words come to pass; what is the custom of the youth—and his work?”
Manoa gwara ya okwu sị, “Mgbe okwu gị mezuru, gịnị bụ iwu banyere ndụ na ọrụ nwa nwoke a?”
13 And the Messenger of YHWH says to Manoah, “Of all that I said to the woman let her take heed;
Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị zaghachiri, “Nwunye gị aghaghị imezu ihe niile m nke m gwara ya.
14 she does not eat of anything which comes out from the wine-vine, and she does not drink wine and strong drink, and she does not eat any unclean thing; she observes all that I have commanded her.”
Ka ọ ghara iri ihe ọbụla si nʼosisi vaịnị, maọbụ ṅụọ mmanya ọbụla maọbụ ihe ọbụla na-aba nʼanya, maọbụ rie ihe rụrụ arụ ọbụla.”
15 And Manoah says to the Messenger of YHWH, “Please let us detain You, and we prepare a kid of the goats before You.”
Manoa rịọrọ Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị si ya, “Ọ ga-amasị anyị ma ị nọdụ chere ka anyị kwadoro gị nwa ewu.”
16 And the Messenger of YHWH says to Manoah, “If you detain Me—I do not eat of your bread; and if you prepare a burnt-offering—offer it to YHWH”; for Manoah has not known that He [is] the Messenger of YHWH.
Ma Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị zara ya, “A sịkwarị na i mee ka m nọrọ, agaghị m eri nri gị ọbụla. Ma ọ bụrụ na i kwadoo aja nsure ọkụ, were ya chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja.” Ma Manoa aghọtaghị na onye ahụ bụ Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị.
17 And Manoah says to the Messenger of YHWH, “What [is] Your Name? When Your words come to pass, then we have honored You.”
Mgbe ahụ, Manoa jụrụ Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị ahụ, sị, “Biko, gịnị bụ aha gị, ka anyị nye gị nsọpụrụ dịịrị gị mgbe okwu gị mezuru?”
18 And the Messenger of YHWH says to him, “Why do you ask this, My Name, since it [is] incomprehensible?”
Ọ zara, “Nʼihi gịnị kwa ka ị na-ajụ banyere aha m? Ọ bụ ihe karịrị nghọta.”
19 And Manoah takes the kid of the goats, and the present, and offers on the rock to YHWH, and He is doing wonderfully, and Manoah and his wife are looking on,
Mgbe ahụ, Manoa weere nwa ewu, ya na ụfọdụ mkpụrụ ọka, jiri ha chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nʼelu nkume. Mgbe ahụ kwa, Onyenwe anyị mere ihe dị ebube nke ukwuu mgbe Manoa na nwunye ya guzo na-ele anya:
20 and it comes to pass, in the going up of the flame from off the altar toward the heavens, that the Messenger of YHWH goes up in the flame of the altar, and Manoah and his wife are looking on, and they fall on their faces to the earth,
Mgbe ire ọkụ ahụ sitere nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ na-arịgo na-aga elu, Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị wụliri elu soro ire ọkụ ahụ rigoro gawa nʼeluigwe! Mgbe Manoa na nwunye ya hụrụ ka nke a na-eme, ha kpuru ihu ha nʼala.
21 and the Messenger of YHWH has not added again to appear to Manoah, and to his wife, then Manoah has known that He [is] the Messenger of YHWH.
Mgbe Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị na-egosighị onwe ya ọzọ nye Manoa na nwunye ya, ka Manoa ghọtara na ọ bụ Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị ka ha hụrụ.
22 And Manoah says to his wife, “We certainly die, for we have seen God.”
Manoa gwara nwunye ya sị, “Anyị abụrụla ndị nwụrụ anwụ, nʼihi na anyị ahụla Chineke!”
23 And his wife says to him, “If YHWH were desirous to put us to death, He had not received burnt-offering and present from our hands, nor showed us all these things, nor caused us to hear [anything] like this as [at this] time.”
Ma nwunye ya zara sị ya, “Ọ bụrụ na Onyenwe anyị chọrọ igbu anyị, ọ garaghị anara aja nsure ọkụ, na aja mkpụrụ ọka anyị chụrụ nye ya. Ọzọkwa, ọ garaghị egosi anyị ihe ndị a niile maọbụ gwa anyị ihe ndị a.”
24 And the woman bears a son, and calls his name Samson, and the youth grows, and YHWH blesses him,
Emesịa, nwanyị ahụ mụrụ nwa nwoke, onye ha gụrụ Samsin. Onyenwe anyị gọzikwara nwantakịrị ahụ mgbe ọ na-etolite.
25 and the Spirit of YHWH begins to move him in the camp of Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
Mmụọ Onyenwe anyị bidokwara na-agba ya ume nʼoge niile, mgbe ọ nọ Mahane Dan, nke dị nʼetiti Zora na Eshtaol.
