< Judges 14 >
1 And Samson goes down to Timnath, and sees a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines,
Nikhat hi Samson Timnah khopia agachesuh leh, Philistine nungah khat ahin mudoh in ahi.
2 and comes up and declares [it] to his father and to his mother, and says, “I have seen a woman in Timnath, of the daughters of the Philistines; and now, take her for me for a wife.”
In na ahung kile phatnin aman anule apa kommah, “Timnah kho’ah Philistine nungah khat kamun kadei lheh jengin ahi, amakhu kajidingin eiga puipeh lhonnin” ati.
3 And his father says to him—also his mother, “Is there no woman among the daughters of your brothers, and among all my people, that you are going to take a woman from the uncircumcised Philistines?” And Samson says to his father, “Take her for me, for she is right in my eyes.”
Anule apan anel lhonnin, “Eiho phunga numei umlou hija ahilouleh Israelte jouse lah a nakichenpi thei umlou hella hitam?” Amanin aseilhonnin, “Ipi dinga cheptanlou Philistine holah a ji naga kipui dingham?” atilhonne. Ahinlah Samson nin apa kommah “Neiga puipeh in, amanu khun kalung atoh lhehjenge” ati.
4 And his father and his mother have not known that it [is] from YHWH, that He is seeking a meeting of the Philistines; and the Philistines are ruling over Israel at that time.
Hiche thilsoh hi Samson chu Philistine te toh akidouna dinga Pathen thilgon ahilam chu anuleh apan ahet lhonlou ahi. Ajeh chu hichea pat’a hi Israelte chu Philistine te thaneina noija umma ahiuve.
5 And Samson goes down—also his father and his mother, to Timnath, and they come to the vineyards of Timnath, and behold, a lion’s whelp roars at meeting him,
Hitichun Samson chu anuleh apatoh Timnah kho a achesuh un ahilah Timnah kho a lengpithei lei kom aphah uchun keipi bahkai golkhatnin pohphungin ahin ngih in ahi.
6 and the Spirit of YHWH prospers over him, and he tears it as the tearing of a kid, and there is nothing in his hand, and he has not declared to his father and to his mother that which he has done.
Hiche pettah chun Pakai Lhagao chun Samson chu pohphung in ahin hatdoh sah in ahileh, Samson in akhutkeo seh in akha ahin kaopeh in, min kelnou abolna bangin aboljengin ahi. Ahinlah aman thilsoh chu anuleh apa ana seipeh pon ahi.
7 And he goes down and speaks to the woman, and she is right in the eyes of Samson;
Samson chu Timnah khopi alhunphat in hiche nungahnu chutoh akihoulim lhonnin ahileh amanun Samson chu alunglhaisah lheh jengin ahi.
8 and he turns back after [some] days to take her, and turns aside to see the carcass of the lion, and behold, a swarm of bees [are] in the body of the lion—and honey.
Khonungin amanu chu kichenpi dingin Timnah kho a chun aga kilekitnin ahileh lampam’a chun keipi bahkai thilongchu agahven ahileh hiche thilong sunga chun khoiju bom anakaijin ahi.
9 And he takes it down on to his hands, and goes on, going and eating; and he goes to his father, and to his mother, and gives to them, and they eat, and he has not declared to them that he took down the honey from the body of the lion.
Aman khoiju chu akhut in themkhat agah khendohin achepum pumin anen ahi. Aman anule apajong themkhat apen ahile amanin jong anelhon’in ahi. Ahinla aman keipi bahkai thilong sunga khoiju alahdoh chu aseipeh lhonpon ahil
10 And his father goes down to the woman, and Samson makes a banquet there, for so the young men does;
Apan kichenna dinga tohgon achaiding konna akisahlel laitah chun, Samson in Timnah kho a golvah khat abollin ahi, hichu hiche phatlaija khangthah ho chonna ngaichu achepi ahi.
11 and it comes to pass, when they see him, that they take thirty companions, and they are with him.
Mounu nulepa chun Samson chu amu phatnin aloi agoldingin khopi sunga konchun golhang somthum agonpeh in ahi.
12 And Samson says to them, “Now let me put forth a riddle to you; if you certainly declare it to me [in] the seven days of the banquet, and have found [it] out, then I have given thirty linen shirts and thirty changes of garments to you;
Samson’in amaho koma chun, “Nangho kommah thulem khat seijingting nanghon hiche golvah ni sagi sungahi naseidoh theijuva ahileh keiman nangho tupat ponnem somthum leh golvah von somthum kapeh diu ahi,” ati.
13 and if you are not able to declare [it] to me, then you have given thirty linen shirts and thirty changes of garments to me.” And they say to him, “Put forth your riddle, and we hear it!”
“Ahinlah nanghon naseidoh theilou uleh nanghon tupat ponnem somthum leh golvah von somthum keima neipeh diu ahi,” ati. Amahon aphai kanom uve hiche thulem chu ipiham neiseipeh tauvin atin ahi.
14 And he says to them: “Out of the eater came forth something to eat, And out of the strong came forth [something] sweet”; and they were not able to declare the riddle [in] three days.
Hitichun aman aseitan ahi, “Mi nepa a kon in nehthei themkhat ahungdoh e, mihatpa a kon in alhumkei themkhat ahung doh e” ati. Nithum sungin amahon hetdohtei ding ago uvin ahin ahedoh joupouvin ahi.
15 And it comes to pass, on the seventh day, that they say to Samson’s wife, “Entice your husband, that he declare the riddle to us, lest we burn you and the house of your father with fire; have you not called for us [here] to rob us?”
Anili channin Samson jinu kommachun, “Hiche thulem hi najipa a kon in hetdoh tei hingon achuti louleh napa in hi nangpuma kahal lhah thadiu ahi. Nanghon hiche golvah a hi suhjum dinga neikou uham?” atiuve.
16 And Samson’s wife weeps for it and says, “You have only hated me, and have not loved me; you have put forth the riddle to the sons of my people, but have not declared it to me”; and he says to her, “Behold, I have not declared [it] to my father and to my mother—and I declare [it] to you?”
Hijeh chun Samson komma chun ajunu in mitlhi pummin aseijin, “Nanghin neilungset ahipoi, neivetda joh ahibouve! Nangin kamite thulem khat nasei khummin ahinlah keikommah aledoh nading neiseipeh poi” ati. Aman adonbutnin, “Hiche ledohna appa kanule appa jeng jong kaseipeh lou ahi, nang komma iti kaseidoh dingham?” ati.
17 And she weeps for it the seven days [in] which their banquet has been, and it comes to pass on the seventh day that he declares [it] to her, for she has distressed him; and she declares the riddle to the sons of her people.
Hitichun golvah sunga chun amanun neiseipeh teijin tin akomma akap jengin ahi. Ajonan nisagi channa in aman aledohna chu aseipehtan ahi, ajeh chu amanun phat tinna asuhboi jing jeng ahi. Hichun amanun gollhangho komma chun aseipeh tan ahi.
18 And the men of the city say to him on the seventh day, before the sun goes in: “What [is] sweeter than honey? And what [is] stronger than a lion?” And he says to them: “Unless you had plowed with my heifer, You had not found out my riddle.”
Hijouchun nisagi channi nilhum masangin khopi mihochu ahungun “Khoiju sanga lhumjo ipi umding ham? Keipi bahkai sanga hatjo epi umding ham?” atiuve. Samson in adonbutnin,” Kabongla namanchah louvu hileh kathulem chu hoiya nahet diuham!” ati.
19 And the Spirit of YHWH prospers over him, and he goes down to Ashkelon, and strikes down thirty of their men, and takes their armor, and gives the changes to those declaring the riddle; and his anger burns, and he goes up to the house of his father;
Hiche jouchun Samson chunga Pakai Lhagao chu thanei tah in achung’ah ahung chutan, ama Ashkelon khopia chun achesuh in, mi somthum aga thatnin aneihou ahin chommin athulem seidoh mihochu akitepna ponho chu agapetan ahi. Ahinla Samson chu hiche chungchanga chun alung phamolheh jengin ainlanga akile in anule apatoh aum khommun ahi.
20 and Samson’s wife becomes his companion’s, who had attended to him.
Hijeh chun ajinu chu Samson golphapen pa kommah anapeu vin ana kichensah tauvin ahi.
