< Judges 16 >

1 And Samson went from there to Gaza, and saw a prostitute there, and went in to her.
Potom otide Samson u Gazu, i ondje vidje jednu ženu kurvu, i uðe k njoj.
2 And it was reported to the Gazites, saying, "Samson is here." They surrounded him, and lay in wait for him all night at the gate of the city, and were quiet all night, saying, "Wait until morning light, then we will kill him."
I ljudima u Gazi bi kazano: doðe Samson ovamo. I opkoliše i vrebaše ga cijelu noæ na vratima gradskim; i stajahu u potaji cijelu noæ govoreæi: dok svane, ubiæemo ga.
3 Now Samson rested until midnight, but got up at midnight and took hold of the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and pulled them up, bar and all, and put them on his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of the mountain that is overlooking Hebron, and set them down there.
Ali Samson spavav do ponoæi usta u ponoæi, i šèepa vrata gradska s oba dovratka i išèupa ih s prijevornicom zajedno, i metnu ih na ramena i odnese navrh gore koja je prema Hevronu.
4 It came to pass afterward, that he fell in love with a woman in the Valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.
Poslije toga zamilova djevojku na potoku Soriku, kojoj bješe ime Dalida.
5 The lords of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, "Entice him, and see in which his great strength lies, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and we will each give you eleven hundred pieces of silver."
I doðoše k njoj knezovi Filistejski i rekoše joj: prevari ga i iskušaj gdje mu stoji velika snaga i kako bismo mu dosadili da ga svežemo i svladamo; a mi æemo ti dati svaki po tisuæu i sto srebrnika.
6 Delilah said to Samson, "Please tell me where your great strength lies, and how you can be bound and subdued."
I Dalida reèe Samsonu: hajde kaži mi gdje stoji tvoja velika snaga i èim bi se mogao svezati i svladati.
7 Samson said to her, "If they bind me with seven green cords that were never dried, then shall I become weak, and be as another man."
A Samson joj reèe: da me svežu u sedam gužava sirovijeh neosušenijeh, onda bih izgubio snagu i bio kao i drugi èovjek.
8 Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green cords which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.
I donesoše joj knezovi Filistejski sedam gužava sirovijeh, još neosušenijeh, i ona ga sveza njima.
9 Now she had an ambush waiting in the inner room. She said to him, "The Philistines are on you, Samson." He broke the cords, as a string of tow is broken when it touches the fire. So his strength was not known.
A kod nje bijaše zasjeda u sobi; i ona mu reèe: eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on pokida gužve, kao što se kida konac od kudjelje kad osjeti vatru; i ne dozna se za snagu njegovu.
10 Delilah said to Samson, "Look, you have mocked me, and told me lies: now please tell me with which you might be bound."
Potom reèe Dalida Samsonu: gle, prevario si me, i slagao si mi; nego hajde kaži mi èim bi se mogao svezati.
11 He said to her, "If they only bind me with new ropes with which no work has been done, then shall I become weak, and be as another man."
A on joj reèe: da me dobro svežu novim užima kojima nije ništa raðeno, tada bih izgubio snagu i bio bih kao drugi èovjek.
12 So Delilah took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said to him, "The Philistines are on you, Samson." The ambush was waiting in the inner room. He broke them off his arms like a thread.
I Dalida uze nova uža, i sveza ga njima, pak mu reèe: eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A zasjeda bijaše u sobi. A on raskide s ruku uža kao konac.
13 Delilah said to Samson, "Until now, you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell me how you might be bound." He said to her, "If you weave the seven braids on my head with the fabric and fasten them with the pin, then I will be weak as another man."
Tada reèe Dalida Samsonu: jednako me varaš i lažeš mi; kaži mi èim bi se mogao svezati? A on joj reèe: da sedam pramena kose na glavi mojoj priviješ na vratilo.
14 So while he slept, Delilah took the seven braids on his head, and wove them with the fabric, and she fastened it with the pin, and said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson." And he awoke from his sleep, and pulled away the pin of the loom and the fabric.
I ona zaglavivši vratilo kocem, reèe: evo Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on se probudi od sna, i istrže kolac i osnovu i vratilo.
15 She said to him, "How can you say, 'I love you,' when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies."
Opet mu ona reèe: kako možeš govoriti: ljubim te, kad srce tvoje nije kod mene? Veæ si me tri puta prevario ne hoteæi mi kazati gdje ti je velika snaga.
16 It happened, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, that his soul was troubled to death.
I ona mu dosaðivaše svojim rijeèima svaki dan i navaljivaše na nj, i duša mu prenemože da umre,
17 He told her all his heart, and said to her, "No razor has ever come on my head; for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I am shaved, then my strength will go from me, and I will become weak, and be like any other man."
Te joj otvori cijelo srce svoje, i reèe joj: britva nije nikad prešla preko glave moje, jer sam nazirej Božji od utrobe matere svoje; da se obrijem, ostavila bi me snaga moja i oslabio bih, i bio bih kao svaki èovjek.
18 When Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up this once, for he has told me all his heart." Then the lords of the Philistines went up to her, and brought the money in their hands.
A Dalida videæi da joj je otvorio cijelo srce svoje, posla i pozva knezove Filistejske poruèivši im: hodite sada, jer mi je otvorio cijelo srce svoje. Tada doðoše knezovi Filistejski k njoj i donesoše novce u rukama svojim.
19 She made him sleep on her knees; and she called for a man, and shaved off the seven locks of his head; and he began to weaken, and his strength went from him.
A ona ga uspava na krilu svojem, i dozva èovjeka te mu obrija sedam pramena kose s glave, i ona ga prva svlada kad ga ostavi snaga njegova.
20 She said, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson." He awoke out of his sleep, and said, "I will go out as at other times, and shake myself free." But he didn't know that the LORD had departed from him.
I ona reèe: eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on probudiv se od sna reèe: izaæi æu kao i prije i oteæu se. Jer ne znadijaše da je Gospod otstupio od njega.
21 The Philistines seized him, and gouged out his eyes. And they brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with bronze shackles, and he ground at the mill in the prison.
Tada ga uhvatiše Filisteji, i iskopaše mu oèi, i odvedoše ga u Gazu i okovaše ga u dvoje verige mjedene; i meljaše u tamnici.
22 However the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaved.
A kosa na glavi njegovoj poèe rasti kao što je bila kad ga obrijaše.
23 The lords of the Philistines gathered them together to offer a great sacrifice to their god Dagon, and to celebrate; for they said, "Our god has delivered Samson our enemy into our hand."
I knezovi Filistejski skupiše se da prinesu veliku žrtvu Dagonu bogu svojemu, i da se provesele; pa rekoše: predade nam bog naš u ruke naše Samsona neprijatelja našega.
24 When the people saw him, they praised their god; for they said, "Our god has delivered our enemy and the destroyer of our country, who has slain many of us, into our hand."
Takoðer i narod vidjevši ga hvaljaše boga svojega govoreæi: predade nam bog naš u ruke naše neprijatelja našega i zatiraèa zemlje naše i koji pobi tolike izmeðu nas.
25 And it happened, when their hearts were merry, that they said, "Call for Samson, that he may entertain us." So they called for Samson out of the prison; and he performed before them. And they were striking him. And they set him between the pillars;
I kad se razveseli srce njihovo rekoše: zovite Samsona da nam igra. I dozvaše Samsona iz tamnice da im igra, i namjestiše ga meðu dva stupa.
26 and Samson said to the boy who held him by the hand, "Allow me to feel the pillars on which the house rests, that I may lean on them." And the boy did so.
Tada Samson reèe momku koji ga držaše za ruku: pusti me, da opipam stupove na kojima stoji kuæa, da se naslonim na njih.
27 Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there. And there were on the roof about three thousand men and women watching while Samson performed.
A kuæa bijaše puna ljudi i žena i svi knezovi Filistejski bijahu ondje; i na krovu bijaše oko tri tisuæe ljudi i žena, koji gledahu kako Samson igra.
28 Samson called to the LORD, and said, "Lord GOD, please remember me, and please strengthen me only this once, God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes."
Tada Samson zavapi ka Gospodu i reèe: Gospode, Gospode! opomeni me se, molim te, i ukrijepi me, molim te, samo sada, o Bože! da se osvetim jedanput Filistejima za oba oka svoja.
29 Samson took hold of the two middle pillars on which the house rested, and leaned on them, the one with his right hand, and the other with his left.
I zagrli Samson dva stupa srednja, na kojima stajaše kuæa, i nasloni se na njih, na jedan desnom a na drugi lijevom rukom svojom.
30 Samson said, "Let me die with the Philistines." He bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell on the lords, and on all the people who were in it. So the dead that he killed at his death were more than those who he killed in his life.
Pa onda reèe Samson: neka umrem s Filistejima. I naleže jako, i pade kuæa na knezove i na sav narod koji bješe u njoj; i bi mrtvijeh koje pobi umiruæi više nego onijeh koje pobi za života svojega.
31 Then his brothers and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought him up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the burial site of Manoah his father. He judged Israel twenty years.
Poslije doðoše braæa njegova i sav dom oca njegova, i uzeše ga, i vrativši se pogreboše ga izmeðu Saraje i Estaola u grobu Manoja oca njegova. A on bi sudija Izrailju dvadeset godina.
