Judges 14
1 And Samson went down to Timnath, —and saw a woman in Timnath, of the daughters of the Philistines.
Nizotso mb’e Timnate t’i Simsone le nahaisake somondrara e Timnate ao, anak’ ampela’ o nte-Pilistio.
2 So he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said—A woman, have I seen in Timnath, of the daughters of the Philistines, —now, therefore, take her for me, to wife.
Nimb’ aman-drae’e mb’eo re nitalily ama’e naho aman-drene’e, ty hoe: Nahatrea ampela e Timnate iraho, anak’ ampela’ o nte-Pilistio; ehe alao ho valiko.
3 And his father and his mother said to him—Is there not, among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, a woman, that thou art going away to take a woman from among the uncircumcised Philistines? But Samson said unto his father—Take, her, for me, for, she, is pleasant in mine eyes.
Le hoe ty rae’e naho i rene’e tama’e, Tsy mahatrea amo anak’ ampelan-dongo’oo ndra am’ ondatiko iabio hao, te o nte-Pilisty tsy nisavareñeo ty ipaia’o valy? Le hoe t’i Simsone aman-drae’e, Alao ho ahy re fa mahafale ty troko.
4 Now, his father and his mother, knew not, that, from Yahweh, it was, that, an occasion, he was seeking of the Philistines, —at that time, the Philistines having dominion over Israel.
Tsy nifohin-drae’e ndra i rene’e te Iehovà ty nipay aze hiatreàtre amo nte-Pilistio, amy te nandily Israele o nte-Pilistio tañ’ andro izay.
5 So Samson went down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, —and they came as far as the vineyards of Timnath, when lo! a young lion, roaring to meet him.
Aa le nitrao-pizotso aman-drae’e naho i rene’e mb’e Timnate mb’eo t’i Simsone, ie avy an-tanem-bahe’ i Timnate eo, hehe ty anan-diona nitroñe mb’ ama’e mb’eo.
6 And the Spirit of Yahweh, came suddenly over him, and he tore it in pieces as if he had torn in pieces a kid, there being, nothing at all, in his hand, —but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.
Nitotsak’ ama’e t’i Arofo’ Iehovà, le rinia’e manahake ty fandriatañe vik’ose, leo raha raike tsy tam-pità’e; fe tsy natalili’e aman-drae’e ndra an-drene’e i nanoe’ey.
7 So he went down, and spake unto the woman, —and she was pleasant in the eyes of Samson.
Le nizotso mb’eo re nifanaontsy amy somondraray naho vata’e nitea’ i Simsone.
8 And he returned, after a time, to take her, and went aside to see the carcass of the lion, —and lo! a swarm of bees, in the body of the lion, and, honey,
Ie añe, nibalike hangalak’ aze fe nitsile hey hahaisake ty fate’ i lionay, naho naheo’e te nisamborien-drene-tantele i faten-dionay vaho aman-tantele.
9 which he took into his hands, and went on—eating as he went, and came unto his father and unto his mother, and gave unto them, and they did eat, —but he told them not that, out of the carcass of the lion, he had taken the honey.
Kinaro’e am-pità’e le nikama t’ie nañavelo; aa ie nifanampe aman-drae’e naho i rene’e le nanjotsoa’e, f’ie tsy nitalily am’iareo te nakare’e an-karankan-diona ao.
10 And his father went down unto the woman, —and Samson made there a banquet, for, so, used the young men, to do.
Aa le nizotso mb’amy somondraray ty rae’e vaho nanao sabadidak’ ao t’i Simsone, amy t’ie nilili’ o ajalahio.
11 And it came to pass, because they feared him, that they took thirty companions, who remained with him.
Ie naharendrek’ aze iereo le mbe nandesañe rañetse telo-polo ila’e hitraok’ ama’e;
12 And Samson said unto them, I pray you let me put you forth a riddle, —if ye, tell, it me, within the seven days of the banquet, and find it out, then will I give you thirty linen wraps and thirty changes of raiment;
le hoe t’i Simsone am’ iereo, ho taroñeko tafatoño nahareo henaneo, aa naho eo ty mahatoiñe naho mahafandrendrek’ aze amako añate’ ty fito andro’ i sabadidakey, le hatoloko anahareo ty lamba leny telopolo, miharo sarimbo telopolo.
13 but, if ye cannot tell me, then shall, ye, give me thirty linen wraps, and thirty changes of raiment. And they said unto him, Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it.
Aa ie tsy mahafitaroñe aze amako, le inahareo ro hanolotse ahy lamba leny telopolo naho sarimbo telopolo. Le hoe ty asa’ iareo ama’e: Akaro i razan-dreha’oy hijanjiña’ay.
14 And he said to them—Out of the eater, came forth food, And, out of the strong, came forth sweetness. But they could not tell the riddle, in three days.
Hoe re tam’ iereo, Boak’ ami’ty mpihinañe ty niakaran-kaneñe naho boak’ ami’ty maozatse ty niakara’ ty mamy. Fe tsy nahabejañe i tafatoñoy iereo añate’ ty telo andro.
15 And it came to pass, on the fourth day, that they said to Samson’s wife, Entice thy husband, that he may tell us the riddle, lest we burn thee and the house of thy father, with fire. Was it not, to impoverish us, that ye invited us—was it not?
Ie amy andro faha-fitoy, le nanoe’ iereo ty hoe i vali’ i Simsoney: Sigiho ty vali’o hitaroña’e i tafatoñoy tsy mone ho forototoe’ay añ’ afo irehe naho ty anjomban-drae’o; handrarak’ anay hao ty nañambara’o anay? Ie izay.
16 And the wife of Samson wept upon him, and said—Thou dost, altogether hate me, and dost not love me, a riddle, hast thou put forth to the sons of my people, and, unto me, thou hast not told it! And he said to her, Lo! to my own father and mother, have I not told it, and, to thee, shall I tell it?
Aa le niharovetse amy Simsone ty vali’e, nanao ty hoe: Toe heje’o iraho naho tsy kokoa’o, amy te nitaron-drazan-drehak’ amo ana’ ondatikoo fe tsy natalili’o amako. Le hoe re tama’e, Inao, ie tsy vinolako aman-draeko ndra amy reneko, ho volañeko ama’o hao?
17 So she wept upon him the seven days, —while their banquet lasted, —and it came to pass, on the seventh day, that he told her, because she urged him, and she told the riddle unto the sons of her people.
F’ie nirovetse añatrefa’e avao amy fito andro’ i sabadida’ iareoy, le amy fañembera’e aze, nampandrendrehe’e amy andro faha-fitoy, vaho nabora’e am’ondatio i razan-drehakey.
18 And the men of the city said to him, on the seventh day—ere yet the sun went in, What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion? And he said to them: If ye had not ploughed with my heifer, Ye had not found out my riddle!
Aa le hoe o roandria’ i rovaio ama’e amy andro fahafitoy aolo’ i tsofots’ àndroy: Ino ty mamy te amo tanteleo? vaho ino ty maozatse te amo lionao? Le hoe re am’ iereo. Naho tsy hinaotsao’ areo i kiloakoy, le tsy ho nioni’ areo i tafatoñokoy.
19 And the Spirit of Yahweh, came suddenly over him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and smote of them thirty men, and took their garments, and gave the changes [of raiment] to them who had told the riddle, —and his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father’s house.
Nitotsak’ ama’e amy zao ty Arofo’Iehovà, le nizotso mb’e Askelone mb’eo nanjamañe ondaty telopolo naho nikopahe’e vaho natolo’e amo nahavale i tafatoñoio o saroñeo. Nisolebotse amy zao ty haviñera’e, le nionjomb’ añ’ anjomban-drae’e mb’eo.
20 And the wife of Samson was given unto his companion who had served him as his friend.
Le natolotse amy mpiama’e nanoe’e mpandrorotsey i vali’ey.
