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.
И сиђе Самсон у Тамнат, и виде онде једну девојку између кћери филистејских.
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."
И вративши се каза оцу свом и матери својој говорећи: Видех девојку у Тамнату између кћери филистејских; ожените ме њом.
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."
А отац и мати рекоше му: Зар нема девојке међу кћерима твоје браће у свем народу мом, да идеш да се ожениш између Филистеја необрезаних? А Самсон одговори оцу свом: Њом ме ожени, јер ми је она омилела.
4 But his father and his mother did not know that it was of the LORD, for he sought for an opportunity against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines had rule over Israel.
А отац и мати његова не знаху да је то од Господа, и да тражи задевицу с Филистејима; јер у оно време Филистеји владаху синовима Израиљевим.
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.
И тако сиђе Самсон с оцем својим и с матером својом у Тамнат, и кад дођоше до винограда тамнатских, гле, млад лав ричући сукоби га.
6 And the Spirit of the LORD 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.
И дух Господњи сиђе на њ, те растрже лава као јаре немајући ништа у руци: и не каза оцу ни матери шта је учинио.
7 He went down and talked with the woman, and she was right in Samson's eyes.
И тако дошавши говори с девојком, и она омиле Самсону.
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.
А после неколико дана идући опет да је одведе, сврне да види мртвог лава; а гле, у мртвом лаву рој пчела и мед.
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.
И извади га у руку, и пође путем једући; и кад дође к оцу и матери, даде им те једоше; али им не рече да је из мртвог лава извадио мед.
10 His father went down to the woman, and Samson made a feast there, since young men used to do so.
И тако дође отац његов к оној девојци, и Самсон учини онде весеље, јер тако чињаху момци.
11 It happened, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.
И кад га видеше Филистеји, изабраше тридесет другова да буду с њим.
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.
И рече им Самсон: Ја ћу вам загонетнути загонетку, па ако ми је одгонетнете за седам дана док је весеље и погодите, даћу вам тридесет кошуља и тридесет свечаних хаљина.
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."
Ако ли не одгонетнете, ви ћете дати мени тридесет кошуља и тридесеторе свечане хаљине. А они му рекоше: Загонетни загонетку своју, да чујемо.
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.
Тада им рече; од оног који једе изиђе јело, и од љутог изиђе слатко. И не могаше одгонетнути загонетке три дана.
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?"
И седми дан рекоше жени Самсоновој: Наговори мужа свог да нам каже загонетку, или ћемо спалити огњем тебе и дом оца твог. Јесте ли нас зато позвали да нам узмете имање? Је ли тако?
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?"
И стаде плакати жена Самсонова пред њим говорећи: Ти мрзиш на ме, и ти ме не љубиш; загонетнуо си загонетку синовима народа мог, а нећеш мени да кажеш. А он јој рече: Гле, ни оцу свом ни матери својој нисам је казао, а теби да је кажем?
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.
И она плака пред њим за седам дана докле трајаше весеље. А седми дан каза јој, јер беше навалила на њ: а она каза загонетку синовима народа свог.
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."
Тада му рекоше људи града оног седми дан док сунце не зађе: Шта је слађе од меда, и шта је љуће од лава? А он им рече: Да нисте орали на мојој јуници, не бисте погодили моје загонетке.
19 The Spirit of the LORD 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.
И дође на њ дух Господњи, те сиђе у Аскалон, и поби онде тридесет људи, и узе одело с њих и даде свечане хаљине онима који одгонетнуше загонетку; и расрди се врло и отиде кући оца свог.
20 But Samson's wife was given to his companion, who had been his friend.
А жена Самсонова удаде се за друга његовог, с којим се беше удружио.
