< Judges 15 >

1 And it comes to pass after [some] days, in the days of wheat-harvest, that Samson looks after his wife, with a kid of the goats, and says, “I go in to my wife, to the inner chamber”; and her father has not permitted him to go in,
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà díẹ̀, ní àkókò ìkórè alikama, Samsoni mú ọ̀dọ́ ewúrẹ́ kan láti bẹ ìyàwó rẹ̀ wò. Ó ní, “Èmi yóò wọ yàrá ìyàwó mi lọ.” Ṣùgbọ́n baba rẹ̀ kò gbà á láààyè láti wọlé.
2 and her father says, “I certainly said that you surely hated her, and I give her to your companion; is her younger sister not better than she? Please let her be to you instead of her.”
Baba ìyàwó dá a lóhùn pé, “Ó dá mi lójú pé o kórìíra rẹ̀, torí náà mo ti fi fún ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ, ṣe bí àbúrò rẹ̀ obìnrin kò ha lẹ́wà jùlọ? Fẹ́ ẹ dípò rẹ̀.”
3 And Samson says of them, “I am more innocent this time than the Philistines, though I am doing evil with them.”
Samsoni dáhùn pé, “Ní àkókò yìí tí mo bá ṣe àwọn Filistini ní ibi èmi yóò jẹ́ aláìjẹ̀bi.”
4 And Samson goes and catches three hundred foxes, and takes torches, and turns tail to tail, and puts a torch between the two tails, in the midst,
Samsoni sì jáde lọ, ó mú ọ̀ọ́dúnrún kọ̀lọ̀kọ̀lọ̀ ó so ìrù wọn mọ́ ara wọn ní méjì méjì. Ó mú ètùfù iná, ó so ó mọ́ àwọn ìrù tí ó so pọ̀.
5 and kindles fire in the torches, and sends [them] out into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burns [it] from heap even to standing grain, even to vineyard [and] olive-yard.
Ó fi iná ran àwọn ètùfù tí ó so náà, ó sì jọ̀wọ́ wọn lọ́wọ́ lọ sínú àwọn oko ọkà àwọn Filistini. Ó jó àwọn pòpóòrò ọkà tí ó dúró àti àwọn tí a dì ní ìtí, ìtí, pẹ̀lú àwọn ọgbà àjàrà àti olifi.
6 And the Philistines say, “Who has done this?” And they say, “Samson, son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken away his wife, and gives her to his companion”; and the Philistines go up, and burn her and her father with fire.
Nígbà tí àwọn Filistini béèrè pé, “Ta ni ó ṣe èyí?” Wọ́n dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Samsoni ará Timna ni, nítorí a gba ìyàwó rẹ̀ fún ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀.” Nítorí náà àwọn Filistini lọ wọ́n sì sun obìnrin náà àti baba rẹ̀.
7 And Samson says to them, “Though you do thus, nevertheless I am avenged on you, and afterward I cease!”
Samsoni sọ fún un pé, “Nítorí pé ẹ̀yin ṣe èyí, èmi ó gbẹ̀san lára yín, lẹ́yìn náà èmi yóò sì dẹ́kun.”
8 And he strikes them hip and thigh [with] a great striking, and goes down and dwells in the cleft of the rock of Etam.
Ó kọlù wọ́n pẹ̀lú ìbínú àti agbára ńlá, ó sì pa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ nínú wọn. Lẹ́yìn náà ni ó lọ, ó sì dúró nínú ihò àpáta kan nínú àpáta Etamu.
9 And the Philistines go up, and encamp in Judah, and are spread out in Lehi,
Àwọn ará Filistini sì dìde ogun sí Juda, wọ́n ti tan ara wọn ká sí agbègbè Lehi.
10 and the men of Judah say, “Why have you come up against us?” And they say, “We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to us.”
Àwọn ọkùnrin Juda sì béèrè pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ fi wá gbóguntì wá?” Ìdáhùn wọn ni pé, “A wá láti mú Samsoni ní ìgbèkùn, kí a ṣe sí i bí òun ti ṣe sí wa.”
11 And three thousand men of Judah go down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and say to Samson, “Have you now known that the Philistines are rulers over us? And what [is] this you have done to us?” And he says to them, “As they did to me, so I did to them.”
Nígbà náà ni ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkùnrin láti Juda sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ihò àpáta nínú àpáta Etamu, wọ́n sì sọ fún Samsoni pé, “Kò ti yé ọ pé àwọn Filistini ní ń ṣe alákòóso lórí wa? Kí ni o ṣe sí wa?” Òun sì dáhùn pé, “Ohun tí wọ́n ṣe sí mi ni èmi náà ṣe sí wọn.”
12 And they say to him, “We have come down to bind you—to give you into the hand of the Philistines.” And Samson says to them, “Swear to me, lest you fall on me yourselves.”
Wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa wá láti dè ọ́, kí a sì fi ọ́ lé àwọn Filistini lọ́wọ́.” Samsoni wí pé, “Ẹ búra fún mi pé, ẹ̀yin kì yóò fúnra yín pa mí.”
13 And they speak to him, saying, “No, but we certainly bind you, and have given you into their hand, and we certainly do not put you to death”; and they bind him with two thick bands, new ones, and bring him up from the rock.
“Àwa gbà,” ni ìdáhùn wọn. “Àwa yóò kàn dè ọ́, àwa yóò sì fi ọ́ lé wọn lọ́wọ́, àwa kì yóò pa ọ́.” Wọ́n sì dé pẹ̀lú okùn tuntun méjì, wọ́n sì mú u jáde wá láti ihò àpáta náà.
14 He has come to Lehi—and the Philistines have shouted at meeting him—and the Spirit of YHWH prospers over him, and the thick bands which [are] on his arms are as flax which they burn with fire, and his bands are melted from off his hands,
Bí ó ti súnmọ́ Lehi, àwọn Filistini ń pariwo bí wọ́n ṣe ń tò bọ̀. Ẹ̀mí Olúwa bà lé e pẹ̀lú agbára. Àwọn okùn ọwọ́ rẹ̀ dàbí òwú tí ó jóná, ìdè ọwọ́ rẹ̀ já kúrò ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀.
15 and he finds a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and puts forth his hand and takes it, and strikes down one thousand men with it.
Nígbà tí ó rí egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ tuntun kan, ó mú un, ó sì fi pa ẹgbẹ̀rún ọkùnrin.
16 And Samson says, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heap on heaps—I have struck down one thousand men with the jawbone of a donkey!”
Samsoni sì wí pé, “Pẹ̀lú egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan, mo sọ wọ́n di òkìtì kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́. Pẹ̀lú egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan, mo ti pa ẹgbẹ̀rún ọkùnrin.”
17 And it comes to pass, when he finishes speaking, that he casts away the jawbone out of his hand, and calls that place Ramath-Lehi;
Nígbà tí ó dákẹ́ ọ̀rọ̀ í sọ, ó ju egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ náà nù, wọ́n sì pe ibẹ̀ ní Ramati-Lehi (ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ jẹ́ egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ pa).
18 and he thirsts exceedingly, and calls to YHWH, and says, “You have given this great salvation by the hand of Your servant; and now, I die with thirst, and have fallen into the hand of the uncircumcised.”
Nítorí tí òǹgbẹ gbẹ ẹ́ gidigidi, ó ké pe Olúwa, wí pé, “Ìwọ ti fún ìránṣẹ́ ní ìṣẹ́gun tí ó tóbi yìí. Ṣé èmi yóò ha kú pẹ̀lú òǹgbẹ, kí èmi sì ṣubú sí ọwọ́ àwọn aláìkọlà ènìyàn?”
19 And God cleaves the hollow place which [is] in Lehi, and waters come out of it, and he drinks, and his spirit comes back, and he revives; therefore [one] has called its name “The fountain of him who is calling,” which [is] in Lehi to this day.
Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run la kòtò ìsun omi tí ó wà ní Lehi, omi sì tú jáde láti inú rẹ̀. Nígbà tí Samsoni mú mi tan, agbára rẹ̀ sì padà, ọkàn sì sọjí, fún ìdí èyí wọ́n pe ìsun omi náà ni. Ẹni Hakkore (orísun ẹni tí ó pe Ọlọ́run) èyí tí ó sì wà ní Lehi di òní.
20 And he judges Israel in the days of the Philistines [for] twenty years.
Samsoni ṣe ìdájọ́ Israẹli fún ogún ọdún ní àkókò àwọn ará Filistini.
