< Judges 15 >

1 But after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a young goat; and he said, "I will go in to my wife into the room." But her father wouldn't allow him to go in.
Hathnukkhu hoi canga lahun navah, Samson ni hmaeca a sin teh, a yu a pâtam. Ahni ni, ka yu koe roe hanelah rakhan thung na kâen sak haw atipouh. Hatei, a na pa ni kâen han pasoung pouh hoeh.
2 Her father said, "I most certainly thought that you had utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Isn't her younger sister more beautiful than she is? Please take her, instead."
A na pa ni, ka canu hah na pahnawt toe telah ka pouk dawkvah, na hui koe yo ka poe toe. A nawngha teh ahni hlak a mei ahawi nahoehmaw. A hmau e yueng lah a nawngha ma lat lawih atipouh.
3 Samson said to him, "This time I will be blameless in regard of the Philistines, when I harm them."
Samson ni ahnimouh koe, atuteh, Filistinnaw heh patawnae puenghoi ka poe nakunghai, kai teh pathoe han awm hoeh toe telah atipouh.
4 Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the midst between every two tails.
Hahoi teh, Samson a cei teh, Asuihu 300 touh a man teh, a mai dawk hmaito koung a kawm pouh.
5 And when he had set fire to the torches, he let them go into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks and the standing grain, as well as the vineyards and olive groves.
Hmaitonaw hah hmai a toteh, Filistinnaw e law um a yawng sak teh, cang hai thoseh, cabongnaw hai thoseh, misur takha, olive takhanaw hai thoseh koung a kak pouh.
6 Then the Philistines said, "Who has done this?" They said, "Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife, and given her to his companion." The Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father's house with fire.
Filistinnaw ni, het heh apimaw ka sak ati awh. Ahnimouh ni Timnah e cava Samson ni doeh ati awh. A yu a lawp awh teh, a hui a poe pouh awh dawkvah ati awh. Hahoi teh, Filistinnaw ni hote napui hoi a na pa im hmai ngeng a sawi pouh awh.
7 Samson said to them, "Because you did this, I will surely take revenge on you, and after that I will cease."
Samson ni hettelah na sak awh dawkvah, nangmouh koe let na pathung awh roeroe han. Hathnukkhu doeh duem kaawm ti atipouh.
8 He struck them hip and thigh with a great slaughter: and he went down and lived in the cleft of the rock of Etam.
A cusin awh teh, buet touh hai hlout laipalah he a thei. Hahoi ka yawng ni teh Etam lungha kâko dawk a kâhro awh.
9 Then the Philistines went up, and camped in Judah, and spread out in Lehi.
Hahoi Filistinnaw teh a takhang awh teh, Judah kho vah a roe awh. Lehi vah tueng a kâyat awh.
10 The men of Judah said, "Why have you come up against us?" They said, "We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to us."
Hahoi Judahnaw ni bangkongmaw kaimouh tuk hanlah na tho awh atipouh awh. Ahnimouh ni, Samson man hane hoi, kaimouh ka tak dawk a sak e patetlah a tak dawk sak hanelah ka tho awh atipouh.
11 Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and said to Samson, "Do you not know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?" He said to them, "As they did to me, so have I done to them."
Hottelah, Judahnaw 3,000 touh Etam lungha kâko dawk a yawng awh teh, Samson koevah, Filistinnaw ni na uk awh e heh na panuek awh hoeh maw telah ati. Ahni ni, ahnimouh koe kai ka tak dawk a sak e patetlah ka sak pouh e doeh telah ati.
12 They said to him, "We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines." Samson said to them, "Swear to me that you will not fall on me yourselves."
Hatei, ahnimouh ni, ama koe Filistinnaw kut dawk na poe nahanelah, nang man hanelah, ka tho atipouh awh. Na thet mahoeh tie lawk kâkam ei telah atipouh awh.
13 They spoke to him, saying, "No; but we will bind you fast, and deliver you into their hand; but surely we will not kill you." They bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock.
Ahnimouh ni na thet awh mahoeh. Hatei, kacaklah na katek awh vaiteh, a kut dawk na poe awh han telah atipouh awh. Hahoi tangron katha yung hni touh hoi a katek awh teh, lungsong koe hoi a takhangkhai awh.
14 When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him: and the Spirit of the LORD rushed upon him, and the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands dropped from off his hands.
Lehi a pha awh toteh, Filistinnaw a tho awh teh, a hramki sin awh. BAWIPA e Muitha a thakaawmpounge hah a tak dawk a pha teh, a kut dawk kateknae ruinaw pueng teh hmai hoi thoukthouk ka kang e patetlah a kut dawk hoi pak a ca pouh.
15 And he found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and reached down and took it, and struck a thousand men with it.
La e a kamhru katha a pâphawng teh, hot hoi Filistinnaw 1,000 touh a thei.
16 Samson said, "With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps; with the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men."
Samson ni telah ati. La e kamhru hoi thouk ka mawk teh, La kamhru hoi tami 1,000 touh ka thei toe.
17 It happened, when he had finished speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath Lehi.
Hottelah lawk a dei hnukkhu, la e kamhru a sin e hah a tâkhawng teh, hote hmuen teh Ramathlehi telah ati awh.
18 He was very thirsty, and called on the LORD, and said, "You have given this great deliverance by the hand of your servant; and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?"
Hahoi, tui hroung a kahran teh, BAWIPA hah a kaw. Nang ni na san e kut heh hno lahoi lentoe e lahoi na rungngang. Atu tui kahran lawi meimei ka due toe. Vuensom ka a hoeh naw e kut dawk maw kai ka kâpoe han toung.
19 And God split the hollow place that is at Lehi, and water came out of it. When he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: therefore its name was called En Hakkore, which is in Lehi, to this day.
Cathut ni Lehi hmuen koe a kavi pouh teh, tui a tâco. Hote a nei toteh, a kâha teh a tha bout akawi.
20 He judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years.
Hottelah, Filistinnaw senah, Isarelnaw hah kum 20 touh a uk.
