Judges 14
1 And Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines, and she was right in his eyes.
Samson nodhi Timna kendo noneno nyako ma pod tin ma nyar jo-Filistia.
2 He came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, "I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines. Now therefore get her for me as wife."
Kane odwogo to ne onyiso wuon-gi gi min-gi niya, “Aseneno nyar jo-Filistia modak Timna; omiyo koro kelnagouru obed chiega.”
3 Then his father and his mother said to him, "Is there not a woman among the daughters of your brothers, or among all my people, that you go to take a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?" And Samson said to his father, "Get her for me, for she is right in my eyes."
Wuon-gi gi min-gi nodwoke niya, “Donge nitiere nyako modimbore kuom wedeni kata kuom jowa duto? Ochuno ni nyaka idhi ir jo-Filistia ma ok oter nyangu mondo iyude dhako?” To Samson nowachone wuon-gi niya, “Miya gouru. En ema owinjore koda.”
4 But his father and his mother did not know that it was of Jehovah, for he sought for an opportunity against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines had rule over Israel.
Jonywolne ne ok ongʼeyo ni ma en dwaro Jehova Nyasaye, mondo omi giyud thuolo mar kedo gi jo-Filistia; nimar e kindeno jo-Israel ne ni e bwo lochgi.
5 Then Samson went down with his father and his mother to Timnah. And he turned aside and went into the vineyards of Timnah, and look, a young lion roared against him.
Samson nodhi Timna kaachiel gi wuon-gi kod min-gi. Kane gichiegni chopo e puoth mzabibu mar Timna, apoya nono nyathi sibuor nowuok karuto kochome tir.
6 And the Spirit of Jehovah rushed upon him, and he tore him as he would have torn a young goat. And he had nothing in his hand, but he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.
Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuome giteko mane oyiecho sibuor koni gi koni gi lwete nono mana kaka onyalo yiecho nyadiel. To ne ok onyiso wuon mare kata min mare gima ne osetimo.
7 He went down and talked with the woman, and she was right in Samson's eyes.
Eka nodhi mi owuoyo gi nyakono, kendo nohere.
8 After a while he returned to take her; and he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion, and look, there was a swarm of bees in the body of the lion, and honey.
Bangʼe achien, kane odhi mondo onywome, nolokore mondo one choke sibuor motho. E ringrene kanyo nopo koneno kich mochiek kochokore kuome,
9 He took it into his hands, and went on, eating as he went. And he came to his father and mother, and gave to them, and they ate. But he did not tell them that he had taken the honey out of the body of the lion.
mi nowuodho pet kiny motimo mo, mi nochamo kodhi. Kane oriwore gi jonywolne kendo, nomiyogi matin, kendo gin bende negichamo. To ne ok onyisogi nine ogolo mor kichno e choke sibuor motho.
10 His father went down to the woman, and Samson made a feast there, since young men used to do so.
Wuon-gi nodhi mondo one nyakono. Kendo Samson noloso nyasi kanyo, nikech mano ema ne en kit wuowi madwaro nyombo.
11 It happened, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.
Kane ochopo, to ne omiye jochungʼ piero adek.
12 Samson said to them, "Let me now put forth a riddle to you. If you can explain it to me within the seven days of the feast, and figure it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing.
Samson nowachonegi niya, “We agonue ngero moro. Ka unyalo miya dwoko bangʼ ndalo abiriyo mar nyasini, to anamiu kandhe piero adek gi lewni mabeyo bende piero adek.”
13 But if you can't explain it to me, then you shall give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing." And they said to him, "Propose your riddle, we want to hear it."
Ka ok unyal miya dwoko, to nyaka umiya kandhe piero adek gi lewni mabeyo bende piero adek. Negiwachone niya, “Nyiswa ngero mari mondo wawinji.”
14 He said to them, "Out of the eater came forth food. Out of the strong came forth sweetness." They couldn't in three days declare the riddle.
Nodwoko niya, “Gima ichamo nowuok kuom jocham ji; gima mit nowuok kuom ratego.” Kuom ndalo adek ne ok ginyal chiwo dwoko.
15 And it happened on the fourth day, that they said to Samson's wife, "Entice your husband, that he may tell us the riddle, lest we burn you and your father's house with fire. Did you invite us here to impoverish us?"
E odiechiengʼ mar angʼwen, neginyiso chi Samson niya, “Hoo chwori mondo onyiswa tiend ngerono, ka ok kamano, to wabiro wangʼi kaachiel gi od wuonu duto nyaka utho. Ne iluongowa kae mondo imawa?”
16 Samson's wife wept before him, and said, "You just hate me, and do not love me. You have put forth a riddle to the children of my people, and haven't told it me." And he said to her, "Look, I haven't told it to my father or my mother, and shall I tell you?"
Eka chi Samson nodirore kuome, koywak, “Ok idwara! Ok ihera. Isemiyo joga ngero, to pod ok inyisa tiende.” Samson nodwoke niya, Wachni pod ok anyiso wuonwa kata minwa, “angʼo momiyo nyaka anyisi tiende?”
17 She wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted: and it happened on the seventh day, that he told her, because she pressed him hard; and she told the riddle to the children of her people.
Noywak odiechienge abiriyo duto mar nyasi. Omiyo e odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo nonyise, nikech nosiko mana kokase. Bangʼe nonyiso joge tiend ngerono.
18 The men of the city said to him on the seventh day before the sun went down, "What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?" He said to them, "If you hadn't plowed with my heifer, you wouldn't have found out my riddle."
Kane chiengʼ pod ok opodho e odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo, jo-dalano nowachone niya, “En angʼo mamit moloyo mor kich? En angʼo maratego moloyo sibuor?” Samson nowachonegi niya, “Kane ok upuro gi nyarocha, to dine ok uyudo tiend ngeroni.”
19 The Spirit of Jehovah rushed upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and struck thirty men of them, and took their belongings, and gave their garments to those who explained the riddle. His anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.
Eka Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuome gi teko. Nodhi Ashkelon, monego ji piero adek ma omagi gigegi mi ochiwo kandhe ne jogo mane owacho tiend ngero. Nodhi e od wuon ka en gi mirima.
20 But Samson's wife was given to his companion, who had been his friend.
Chi Samson nomi osiepne mane jachungʼne kokendo.
