Judges 16
1 And Samson goes to Gaza, and sees a woman there, a harlot, and goes in to her;
三松往迦薩去，在那裏看見一個妓女，便去走近了她。
2 [it is told] to the Gazathites, saying, “Samson has come in here”; and they go around and lay wait for him all the night at the gate of the city, and keep themselves silent all the night, saying, “Until the morning light—then we have slain him.”
有人告訴迦薩人說：「三松到這裏來了。」他們就把他圍住，終夜派人埋伏在城門口，整夜靜悄悄地等待他，說：「等到早晨天亮，我們纔殺他。」
3 And Samson lies down until the middle of the night, and rises in the middle of the night, and lays hold on the doors of the gate of the city, and on the two side-posts, and removes them with the bar, and puts [them] on his shoulders, and takes them up to the top of the hill, which [is] on the front of Hebron.
三松睡到半夜，半夜醒來，抓緊城門，連兩個門框帶門閂，一起拔起，放在肩上，背到赫特龍對面的山頂上。三松與德里拉
4 And it comes to pass afterward that he loves a woman in the Valley of Sorek, and her name [is] Delilah,
此後，他在芍勒克平原又愛上一個女人，名叫德里拉。
5 and the princes of the Philistines come up to her, and say to her, “Entice him, and see wherein his great power [is], and wherein we are able for him—and we have bound him to afflict him, and each one of us gives eleven hundred pieces of silver to you.”
培肋舍特的酋長上到她那裏，對她說：「請你引誘他，看看他這樣大的力量是從那裏來的，我們怎樣能制勝他，將他捆起，而制伏他；我們每人給你一千一百銀子。」
6 And Delilah says to Samson, “Please declare to me wherein your great power [is], and with what you are bound, to afflict you.”
德里拉問三松說：「請你告訴我，你這樣大的力量是從那裏來的﹖人怎樣纔能將你捆起，而制伏你﹖」
7 And Samson says to her, “If they bind me with seven green cords which have not been dried, then I have been weak, and have been as one of mankind.”
三松回答說：「人若用七根未乾的新牛筋繩將我捆起，我就像別人一樣軟弱。」
8 And the princes of the Philistines bring up to her seven green cords which have not been dried, and she binds him with them.
培肋舍特人的酋長就給她送來七根未乾的新牛筋繩，她便用這些繩子將他捆起。
9 And the ambush is abiding with her in an inner chamber, and she says to him, “Philistines [are] on you, Samson!” And he breaks the cords as a thread of tow is broken in its touching fire, and his power has not been known.
當時有埋伏的人暗藏在她的內室裏；德里拉向他喊說：「三松，培肋舍特人來捉你哩! 」他就掙斷牛筋繩，如同麻線被火燒斷一樣；於是人們仍不知他力量的所在。
10 And Delilah says to Samson, “Behold, you have played on me, and speak lies to me; now, please declare to me with what you are bound.”
德里拉遂對三松說：「看，你戲弄我，對我說謊。如今請你告訴我，怎樣纔能捆綁你﹖」
11 And he says to her, “If they certainly bind me with thick bands, new ones, by which work has not been done, then I have been weak, and have been as one of mankind.”
他回答她說：「人若用從未用過的新繩將我捆起，我就像別人一樣軟弱。」
12 And Delilah takes thick bands, new ones, and binds him with them, and says to him, “Philistines [are] on you, Samson!” And the ambush is abiding in an inner chamber, and he breaks them from off his arms as a thread.
德里拉就拿新繩將他捆起，對他喊說：「三松，培肋舍特人來捉你哩! 」當時仍有埋伏的人暗藏在內室裏；但他掙斷手臂上的繩子，好像一根絲線一樣。
13 And Delilah says to Samson, “Until now you have played on me, and speak lies to me; declare to me with what you are bound.” And he says to her, “If you weave the seven locks of my head with the web.”
德里拉對三松說：「到現在你仍戲弄我，對我說謊；你告訴我，人怎樣纔能捆綁你﹖」他回答她說：「你若把我頭上的七條髮辮與織布的經線編在一起，然後用木橛釘住，我就像別人一樣軟弱。」
14 And she fixes [it] with the pin and says to him, “Philistines [are] on you, Samson!” And he awakens out of his sleep, and pulls out the pin of the loom, and with the web.
德里拉使他睡了，然後把他頭上的七條髮辮與織布的經線編在一起，再用木橛釘住，向他喊說：「三松，培肋舍特人來捉你哩! 」他從夢中醒來，把織布機的木橛連織布的經線都拔了出來。
15 And she says to him, “How do you say, I have loved you, and your heart is not with me? These three times you have played on me, and have not declared to me wherein your great power [is].”
德里拉就對他說：「你心裏既沒有我，你怎能說：我愛你呢﹖你已三次戲弄我，還沒有告訴我你這樣大的力量是從那裏來的! 」
16 And it comes to pass, because she distressed him with her words all the days, and urges him, and his soul is grieved to death,
因為她天天用話來逼他，催他，致使他的精神苦惱的要死。
17 that he declares all his heart to her, and says to her, “A razor has not gone up on my head, for I [am] a Nazarite to God from the womb of my mother; if I have been shaven, then my power has turned aside from me, and I have been weak, and have been as all of mankind.”
三松遂把心中的一切全透露給她，對她說：「剃刀從未接觸過我的頭，因為我在母胎時就是獻於天主的；人若剃去我的頭髮，我的力量就離開了我，我就像眾人一樣軟弱。」
18 And Delilah sees that he has declared all his heart to her, and she sends and calls for the princes of the Philistines, saying, “Come up this time, for he has declared all his heart to me”; and the princes of the Philistines have come up to her, and bring up the money in their hand.
德里拉一見他把心中的一切全給她透露了，便打發人召培肋舍特的酋長來說：「這一次你們上來罷! 因為他把心中的一切全透露給我。」於是培肋舍特人的酋長手中帶著銀子，來到德里拉那裏。
19 And she makes him sleep on her knees, and calls for a man, and shaves the seven locks of his head, and begins to afflict him, and his power turns aside from off him;
德里拉使三松睡在自己的膝上，又叫來一個人，剃去他頭上的七條髮辮，他就開始軟弱無力，他的力量全離開了他。
20 and she says, “Philistines [are] on you, Samson!” And he awakens out of his sleep and says, “I go out as time by time, and shake free”; but he has not known that YHWH has turned aside from off him.
她於是喊說：「三松，培肋舍特人來捉你哩! 」他由夢中醒來，心想：「這一次和前幾次一樣，我一掙扎，必能脫身。」他卻不知道上主已離棄了他。
21 And the Philistines seize him, and pick out his eyes, and bring him down to Gaza, and bind him with two bronze chains; and he is grinding in the prison-house.
培肋舍特人便把他捉住，剜去他的眼睛，帶他下到迦薩，用銅鍊鎖了他，叫他在監獄裏推磨。
22 And the hair of his head begins to shoot up when he has been shaven,
但是他的頭髮在剃了以後，又漸漸長起來。三松殉身復仇
23 and the princes of the Philistines have been gathered together to sacrifice a great sacrifice to their god Dagon, and to rejoice; and they say, “Our god has given our enemy Samson into our hand.”
培肋舍特人的酋長聚集起來，為給他們的神達貢舉行祭獻大典，表示慶祝；他們說：「我們的神把我們的仇人三松交在我們手中。」
24 And the people see him, and praise their god, for they said, “Our god has given into our hand our enemy, and he who is laying waste to our land, and who multiplied our wounded.”
民眾一見三松，就讚頌他們的神說：「我們的神把破壞過我們的田地，殺害過我們多人的仇人，交在我們的手中了。」
25 And it comes to pass, when their heart [is] glad, that they say, “Call for Samson, and he entertains for us”; and they call for Samson out of the prison-house, and he entertains their faces, and they cause him to stand between the pillars.
當他們興高采烈的時候，就喊說：「讓三松給我們表演把戲。」他們就從監獄裏叫出三松來，在他們面前耍把戲；以後把他放在兩根柱子中間。
26 And Samson says to the young man who is keeping hold on his hand, “Let me also feel the pillars on which the house is established, and I lean on them.”
三松對牽他手的僮僕說：「讓我摸摸支殿的柱子，好能靠一靠。」
27 And the house has been full of the men and the women, and all the princes of the Philistines [are] there, and about three thousand men and women [are] on the roof, who are watching Samson entertain.
那時殿內滿了男女，培肋舍特人的酋長也在裏面，在天台上約有三千男女，都在看三松表演把戲。
28 And Samson calls to YHWH and says, “Lord YHWH, please remember me and please strengthen me only this time, O God; and I am avenged—vengeance at once—because of my two eyes, on the Philistines.”
三松呼求上主說：「吾主上主，求你眷念我! 天主，求你再賜我力量，只要這一次! 以報培肋舍特人剜我雙眼的仇。」
29 And Samson turns aside [to] the two middle pillars, on which the house is established, and on which it is supported, [to] one with his right hand and one with his left;
三松就抱住正中支殿的兩根柱子，右手抱一根，左手抱一根；
30 and Samson says, “Let me die with the Philistines,” and he inclines himself powerfully, and the house falls on the princes, and on all the people who [are] in it, and the dead whom he has put to death in his death are more than those whom he put to death in his life.
然後三松說：「讓我的性命和培肋舍特人同歸於盡! 」於是他奮力屈身，大殿隨之倒塌，壓在酋長和裏面所有的民眾身上；這樣他在臨死時所殺死的人，比一生所殺死的人還多。
31 And his brothers come down, and all the house of his father, and lift him up, and bring him up, and bury him between Zorah and Eshtaol, in the burying-place of his father Manoah; and he has judged Israel [for] twenty years.
此後，他的兄弟和父親的全家下來，把他抬上去，葬在祚辣和厄市陶耳之間，他父親瑪諾亞的墳墓裏。他作以色列民長二十年。
