< Judges 14 >

1 And Samson goes down to Timnath, and sees a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines,
И сиђе Самсон у Тамнат, и виде онде једну девојку између кћери филистејских.
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.”
И вративши се каза оцу свом и матери својој говорећи: Видех девојку у Тамнату између кћери филистејских; ожените ме њом.
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.”
А отац и мати рекоше му: Зар нема девојке међу кћерима твоје браће у свем народу мом, да идеш да се ожениш између Филистеја необрезаних? А Самсон одговори оцу свом: Њом ме ожени, јер ми је она омилела.
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.
А отац и мати његова не знаху да је то од Господа, и да тражи задевицу с Филистејима; јер у оно време Филистеји владаху синовима Израиљевим.
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,
И тако сиђе Самсон с оцем својим и с матером својом у Тамнат, и кад дођоше до винограда тамнатских, гле, млад лав ричући сукоби га.
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.
И дух Господњи сиђе на њ, те растрже лава као јаре немајући ништа у руци: и не каза оцу ни матери шта је учинио.
7 And he goes down and speaks to the woman, and she is right in the eyes of Samson;
И тако дошавши говори с девојком, и она омиле Самсону.
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.
А после неколико дана идући опет да је одведе, сврне да види мртвог лава; а гле, у мртвом лаву рој пчела и мед.
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.
И извади га у руку, и пође путем једући; и кад дође к оцу и матери, даде им те једоше; али им не рече да је из мртвог лава извадио мед.
10 And his father goes down to the woman, and Samson makes a banquet there, for so the young men does;
И тако дође отац његов к оној девојци, и Самсон учини онде весеље, јер тако чињаху момци.
11 and it comes to pass, when they see him, that they take thirty companions, and they are with him.
И кад га видеше Филистеји, изабраше тридесет другова да буду с њим.
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;
И рече им Самсон: Ја ћу вам загонетнути загонетку, па ако ми је одгонетнете за седам дана док је весеље и погодите, даћу вам тридесет кошуља и тридесет свечаних хаљина.
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!”
Ако ли не одгонетнете, ви ћете дати мени тридесет кошуља и тридесеторе свечане хаљине. А они му рекоше: Загонетни загонетку своју, да чујемо.
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.
Тада им рече; од оног који једе изиђе јело, и од љутог изиђе слатко. И не могаше одгонетнути загонетке три дана.
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?”
И седми дан рекоше жени Самсоновој: Наговори мужа свог да нам каже загонетку, или ћемо спалити огњем тебе и дом оца твог. Јесте ли нас зато позвали да нам узмете имање? Је ли тако?
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?”
И стаде плакати жена Самсонова пред њим говорећи: Ти мрзиш на ме, и ти ме не љубиш; загонетнуо си загонетку синовима народа мог, а нећеш мени да кажеш. А он јој рече: Гле, ни оцу свом ни матери својој нисам је казао, а теби да је кажем?
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.
И она плака пред њим за седам дана докле трајаше весеље. А седми дан каза јој, јер беше навалила на њ: а она каза загонетку синовима народа свог.
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.”
Тада му рекоше људи града оног седми дан док сунце не зађе: Шта је слађе од меда, и шта је љуће од лава? А он им рече: Да нисте орали на мојој јуници, не бисте погодили моје загонетке.
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;
И дође на њ дух Господњи, те сиђе у Аскалон, и поби онде тридесет људи, и узе одело с њих и даде свечане хаљине онима који одгонетнуше загонетку; и расрди се врло и отиде кући оца свог.
20 and Samson’s wife becomes his companion’s, who had attended to him.
А жена Самсонова удаде се за друга његовог, с којим се беше удружио.
