< Judges 13 >

1 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì túnṣe ohun tí ó burú ní ojú Olúwa, Olúwa sì fi wọ́n lé àwọn ará Filistini lọ́wọ́ fún ogójì ọdún.
2 There was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and did not bear.
Ọkùnrin ará Sora kan wà, orúkọ rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Manoa láti ẹ̀yà Dani. Aya rẹ̀ yàgàn kò sì bímọ.
3 The angel of the LORD appeared to the woman, and said to her, "See now, you are barren, and do not bear; but you shall conceive, and bear a son.
Angẹli Olúwa fi ara han obìnrin náà, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ìwọ yàgàn, ìwọ kò sì tí ì bímọ, ìwọ yóò lóyún, ìwọ yóò sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan.
4 Now therefore please be careful and drink no wine nor strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing.
Báyìí rí i dájúdájú pé ìwọ kò mu wáìnì tàbí ọtí líle kankan àti pé ìwọ kò jẹ ohun aláìmọ́ kankan,
5 For look, you shall conceive, and bear a son; and no razor will come on his head; for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb. And he shall begin to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines."
nítorí ìwọ yóò lóyún, ìwọ yóò sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan. Má ṣe fi abẹ kan orí rẹ̀, nítorí pé Nasiri, ẹni ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún Ọlọ́run ni ọmọ náà yóò jẹ́ láti ọjọ́ ìbí rẹ̀. Òun ni yóò bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìdáǹdè àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kúrò ní ọwọ́ àwọn ará Filistini.”
6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, "A man of God came to me, and his face was like the face of the angel of God, very awesome; and I didn't ask him where he was from, neither did he tell me his name,
Nígbà náà ni obìnrin náà tọ ọkọ rẹ̀ lọ, o sì sọ fún un wí pé, “Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run kan tọ̀ mí wá. Ó jọ angẹli Ọlọ́run, ó ba ènìyàn lẹ́rù gidigidi. Èmi kò béèrè ibi tí ó ti wá, òun náà kò sì sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ fún mi.
7 but he said to me, 'Look, you shall conceive, and bear a son. And now drink no wine nor strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing; for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb until the day of his death.'"
Ṣùgbọ́n ó sọ fún mi wí pé, ‘Ìwọ yóò lóyún, ìwọ yóò sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, fún ìdí èyí, má ṣe mu wáìnì tàbí àwọn ọtí líle mìíràn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìwọ má ṣe jẹ ohunkóhun tí í ṣe aláìmọ́, nítorí pé Nasiri Ọlọ́run ni ọmọ náà yóò jẹ́ láti ọjọ́ ìbí rẹ̀ títí di ọjọ́ ikú rẹ̀.’”
8 Then Manoah pleaded with the LORD, and said, "Oh, Lord, please let the man of God whom you did send come again to us, and teach us what we shall do to the child who shall be born."
Nígbà náà ni Manoa gbàdúrà sí Olúwa wí pé, “Háà Olúwa, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, jẹ́ kí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run tí ìwọ rán sí wa padà tọ̀ wá wá láti kọ́ wa bí àwa yóò ti ṣe tọ́ ọmọ tí àwa yóò bí náà.”
9 God listened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again to the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah, her husband, wasn't with her.
Ọlọ́run fetí sí ohùn Manoa, angẹli Ọlọ́run náà tún padà tọ obìnrin náà wá nígbà tí ó wà ní oko ṣùgbọ́n ọkọ rẹ̀ Manoa kò sí ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀.
10 The woman ran quickly, and told her husband, and said to him, "Look, the man who came to me the other day has appeared to me."
Nítorí náà ni obìnrin náà ṣe yára lọ sọ fún ọkọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ọkùnrin tí ó fi ara hàn mí ní ọjọ́sí ti tún padà wá.”
11 Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said to him, "Are you the man who spoke to the woman?" He said, "I am."
Manoa yára dìde, ó sì tẹ̀lé aya rẹ̀, nígbà tí ó dé ọ̀dọ̀ ọkùnrin náà ó ní, “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ ni o bá obìnrin yìí sọ̀rọ̀?” Ọkùnrin náà dáhùn pé, “Èmi ni.”
12 Manoah said, "Now let your word happen. How shall the child be raised and what is he to do?"
Manoa bi ọkùnrin náà pé, “Nígbà tí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ bá ṣẹ kí ni yóò jẹ́ ìlànà fún ìgbé ayé àti iṣẹ́ ọmọ náà?”
13 The angel of the LORD said to Manoah, "Of all that I said to the woman let her be careful.
Angẹli Olúwa náà dáhùn wí pé, “Aya rẹ gbọdọ̀ ṣe gbogbo ohun tí mo ti sọ fún un
14 She may not eat of anything that comes of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing. All that I have commanded her she is to observe."
kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ohunkóhun tí ó bá ti inú èso àjàrà jáde wá, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ mu wáìnì tàbí àwọn ọtí líle mìíràn tàbí jẹ ohunkóhun tí ó bá jẹ́ aláìmọ́. Ó ní láti ṣe ohun gbogbo tí mo ti pàṣẹ fún un.”
15 Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, "Please, stay a bit longer that we may prepare a young goat for you."
Manoa sọ fún angẹli Olúwa náà pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ dára dúró títí àwa yóò fi pèsè ọ̀dọ́ ewúrẹ́ kan fún ọ.”
16 The angel of the LORD said to Manoah, "Though you detain me, I won't eat of your bread. And if you prepare a burnt offering, you must offer it to the LORD." For Manoah did not know that he was the angel of the LORD.
Angẹli Olúwa náà dá Manoa lóhùn pé, “Bí ẹ̀yin tilẹ̀ dá mi dúró, èmi kì yóò jẹ ọ̀kankan nínú oúnjẹ tí ẹ̀yin yóò pèsè. Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ̀yin bá fẹ́ ẹ pèsè ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun, kí ẹ sì fi rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa.” (Manoa kò mọ̀ pé angẹli Olúwa ní i ṣe.)
17 Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, "What is your name, that when your words come true we may honor you?"
Manoa sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ angẹli Olúwa náà pé, “Kí ni orúkọ rẹ, kí àwa bá à lè fi ọlá fún ọ nígbà tí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ bá ṣẹ?”
18 And the angel of the LORD said to him, "Why do you ask for my name? It is incomprehensible."
Ṣùgbọ́n angẹli Olúwa náà dáhùn pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ ń béèrè orúkọ mi? Ìyanu ni, ó kọjá ìmọ̀.”
19 So Manoah took the young goat and a grain offering, and offered it on the rock to the LORD, the LORD who works wonders. And Manoah and his wife looked on.
Lẹ́yìn náà ni Manoa mú ọ̀dọ́ ewúrẹ́, pẹ̀lú ẹbọ ọkà, ó sì fi rú ẹbọ lórí àpáta kan sí Olúwa. Nígbà tí Manoa àti ìyàwó dúró tí wọn ń wò Olúwa ṣe ohun ìyanu kan.
20 For it happened, when the flame went up toward the sky from off the altar, that the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on, and they fell on their faces to the ground.
Bí ẹ̀là ahọ́n iná ti là jáde láti ibi pẹpẹ ìrúbọ náà sí ọ̀run, angẹli Olúwa gòkè re ọ̀run láàrín ahọ́n iná náà. Nígbà tí wọ́n rí ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀ yìí, Manoa àti aya rẹ̀ wólẹ̀ wọ́n sì dojúbolẹ̀.
21 But the angel of the LORD did not appear again to Manoah or to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was the angel of the LORD.
Nígbà tí angẹli Olúwa náà kò tún fi ara rẹ̀ han Manoa àti aya rẹ̀ mọ́, Manoa wá mọ̀ pé angẹli Olúwa ni.
22 Manoah said to his wife, "We shall surely die, because we have seen God."
Manoa sọ fún aya rẹ̀ pé, “Dájúdájú àwa yóò kú nítorí àwa ti fi ojú rí Ọlọ́run.”
23 But his wife said to him, "If the LORD meant to kill us, he wouldn't have received a burnt offering and a grain offering from us, neither would he have shown us all these things, nor would he have spoken to us now like this."
Ṣùgbọ́n ìyàwó rẹ̀ dáhùn pé, “Bí Olúwa bá ní èrò àti pa wá kò bá tí gba ẹbọ sísun àti ọrẹ ọkà wa, tàbí fi gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí hàn wá tó sọ nǹkan ìyanu yìí fún wa.”
24 The woman bore a son, and named him Samson. And the child grew, and the LORD blessed him.
Obìnrin náà sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, ó sì sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Samsoni. Ọmọ náà dàgbà Olúwa sì bùkún un.
25 And the Spirit of the LORD began to direct him in Mahaneh Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
Ẹ̀mí Olúwa sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ru sókè nígbà tí ó wà ní Mahane-Dani ní agbede-méjì Sora àti Eṣtaoli.
