< Judges 16 >
1 And Samson goes to Gaza, and sees a woman there, a harlot, and goes in to her;
Nimb’e Azà mb’eo t’i Simsone, le nanjo ty tsimirirañe, vaho nizilik’ ao.
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.”
Natalily amo nte-Gazeo ty hoe: Fa nomb’ atoy t’i Simsone. Aa le nivoñone’ iereo naho nialeñe nandiñe aze an-dalambey eo, f’ie nianjiñe amy haleñe iabiy, le hoe ty asa’ iareo: Angao re ampara’ te mazava i maraiñey, vaho hañohofan-tika loza.
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.
Nàndre ao t’i Simsone ampara’ te antets’ ale le nitroatse te petsak-aleñe naho nandrambe o lalambein-drovao reketse ty tokona’e roe, naho nombota’e reketse sikadañe aman-karao’e, naho nanoe’e an-tsoroke vaho jinini’e mb’an-kaboa’ ty vohitse aolo’ i Kebrone eñe.
4 And it comes to pass afterward that he loves a woman in the Valley of Sorek, and her name [is] Delilah,
Ie añe, le nikokoa’e ty rakemba am-bavatane’ i Soreke ao, i Delilà ty añara’e.
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.”
Aa le nomb’ ama’e mb’eo o talem-Pilistio, nanao ty hoe ama’e: Sigiho, hahaoniñañe te aia i haozara’e ra’elahiy, naho an-tsata akore ty hahafitroara’ay, hamahots’ aze, hanolora’ay sotry, vaho songa hanolotse drala arivo-tsi-zato ama’o zahay.
6 And Delilah says to Samson, “Please declare to me wherein your great power [is], and with what you are bound, to afflict you.”
Aa le hoe t’i Delilà amy Simsone: Atalilio amako te aia ty idoña’ o haozara’o ra’elahio, vaho manao akore ty hamahorañe azo hiambanea’o?
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.”
Le hoe t’i Simsone ama’e, Ie vahora’ iareo an-tàlim-pale leñe fito mbe tsy nimaiheñe le hihalème manahake ondaty ila’eo.
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.
Aa le nanese vahotse fito mbe tsy nimaiheñe ama’e o talèm-Pilistio vaho finehe’e.
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.
Ie amy zao, nasia’e mpamandroñe am-po’ ty traño raik’ ao, le hoe re: O Simsone, fa ama’o o nte-Pilistio! Fe tinampa’e hoe ty fitampahan-karafon-deny mioza afo o tàlim-paleo. Tsy nirendrek’ amy zao ty foto’ i haozara’ey.
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.”
Aa le nanao ty hoe amy Simsone t’i Delilà, Toe nifañahia’o, vaho nandañira’o; ehe saontsio amako, inoñe ty hamahorañe azo?
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.”
Le hoe re tama’e: Naho fehe’ iereo mafe an-taly vao mbe lia’e tsy niasa, le havòzo manahake ondaty ila’eo.
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.
Aa le nangalake taly vao t’i Delilà, namahots’ aze vaho nanao ty hoe ama’e: O Simsone, ama’o o nte-Pilistio. Ie amy zao an-traño ao o mpamandroñeo. Fe tinampa’e hoe fole o taly am-pità’eo.
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.”
Aa le hoe t’i Delilà amy Simsone: Ampara’ henane nikobihe’o avao naho nitaroña’o vande; atalilio amako arè ty handrohizañe azo. Le hoe re ama’e: Naho ranjie’o an-tenoñe o randram-piton-dohakoo.
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.
Aa le vinandri’e ami’ty harake, naho hoe ty koi’e ama’e: O Simsone, ama’o o nte-Pilistio: Nibarakakaok’ amy firota’ey amy zao re vaho sininto amo komboo i harakey rekets’ i tenoñey.
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].”
Le hoe re ama’e, Aia ty hatao’o ty hoe: Kokoako, kanao tsy amako ty arofo’o? Ie fa nikobik’ ahy in-telo vaho mb’e tsy natalili’o amako ty talin-kaozara’o.
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,
Aa kanao tinindri’e lomoñandro lomoñandro an-drehake, naho nitolom-pañosik’ aze, le nirintike te hamoe’ay,
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.”
naho fonga nabora’e ama’e o añ’ arofo’eo ami’ty hoe: Mbe lia’e tsy nirangàm-piharatse ty lohako; ie nte-Nazire aman’ Añahare boak’ an-kovin-dreneko; aa naho harateñe le hienga ahy o hafatrarakoo vaho hihamavozo manahake ondaty ila’eo.
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.
Aa ie nioni’ i Delilà te hene nabora’e ty arofo’e, le nihitrife’e an-koike o talèm-Pilistio, ami’ty hoe: Mb’etoa aniany fa fonga binora’e amako ty an-tro’e ao, Aa le nihitrike mb’eo o talem-Pilistio reke-drala am-pità’e ao.
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;
Nampirote’e añ’ongo’e eo le kinanji’e t’indaty naho niharate’e i randrañe fito añambone’e rey naho niorotse nanolo-tsotry aze, fe nisitak’ ama’e i haozara’ey.
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.
Le hoe re, O Simsone, fa ama’o o nte-Pilistio. Tsekak’ amy firota’ey amy zao le nanao ty hoe: Hiavotse manahake tamo ila’eo, le hivoamboañe; fe tsy napota’e te nieng’ aze t’Iehovà.
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.
Aa le rinambe’ o nte-Pilistio, naho napoliti’ iareo o fihaino’eo; nendese’ iareo mb’e Azà mb’eo naho vinaho’ iareo an-daborìdy torisìke; vaho nandisañe am-porozò ao.
22 And the hair of his head begins to shoot up when he has been shaven,
Ie añe, namototse nitombo o maroi’e niharateñeo.
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.”
Nampamorie’ o talèm-Pilistio amy zao ondatio hanao sorom-bey amy Dagone ‘ndrahare’ iareo vaho hirebeke; fa hoe iereo: Natolon’ añaharentika am-pitàn-tika t’i Simsone rafelahintikañey.
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.”
Aa ie nahaisak’ aze ondatio, le nandrenge an-drahare’ iareo, ami’ty hoe: Fa natolon-draharentika am-pitàntika i rafelahintikañey, i mpijoy o tànen-tikañeoy, i nanjamañe maro aman-tikañey.
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.
Ie nifale añ’arofo, le nanao ty hoe: Hitrifo am-balabey ao t’i Simsone, hihisa’ay. Aa le kinoi’ iareo boak’ am-porozò ao t’i Simsone hitohafa’ iareo le napo’ iareo añivo’ o fahañeo.
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.”
Le hoe t’i Simsone amy ajalahy nitañe ty fità’ey, ehe apoho iraho hitsapa o fahañe mitohañe ty anjomba toio, hiatoako.
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.
Ie amy zao nialindretse t’indaty naho rakemba amy anjombay; tao iaby o talem-Pilistio, vaho tan-tafo’e ey nisamba ty fikobihañe i Simsone ty lahilahy naho rakemba telo arivo varañe.
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.”
Aa le nikanjy Iehovà t’i Simsone ami’ ty hoe: Ry Iehovà Talè, ehe tiahio iraho amy henaneo avao, ehe ampaozaro ry Andrianañahare, soa te ami’ty indraike toy avao ty hamaleako o nte-Pilistio ty amy masoko roey.
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;
Rinambe’ i Simsone amy zao o fahañe añivo ao mitohañe i anjombaio, nampionjonañe aze, vaho naronje’e, ty raike am-pità’e havana naho ty raike am-pità’e havia.
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.
Le hoe t’i Simsone: Angao hitrao-pikenkañe amo nte-Pilistio iraho, le naronje’e ami’ ty haozara’e iaby, vaho nikorovok’ amo talèo naho amy ze hene’ ondaty tam-po’e ao. Aa le nandikoatse ze vinono’e amy hene havelo’ey o zinama’e amy fikoromaha’eio.
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.
Le songa nizotso mb’eo o longo’eo naho ty anjomban-drae’e nandrambe aze naho nakare’ iareo vaho nalenteke añivo’ i Tsorà naho i Estaole, an-kibori’ i Manoà rae’e. Nizaka Israele roapolo taon-dre.
