< Judges 16 >

1 Then went Samson unto Gaza, —and saw there an unchaste woman, and went in unto her.
Sie len ah Samson el som nu Gaza, sie siti lun mwet Philistia. Ingo el liyauk sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, ac el utyak ac motulla yorol ke fong sac.
2 And it was told the Gazites, saying—Samson hath come in hither. So they came round, and lay in wait for him, all the night, in the gate of the city, —but kept themselves quiet all the night, saying, Until the light of the morning, then will we slay him.
Ke mwet Gaza elos lohng lah Samson el oasr we, elos som raunela acn sac ac soanel ke mutunpot lun siti sac. Elos misla ke fong nufon sac ac fahk, “Soano nu ke lenelik, na kut fah unilya.”
3 And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took hold of the doors of the gate of the city, and of the two doorposts, and tare them away, with the bar, and put them on his shoulders, —and carried them up to the top of the hill that faceth Hebron.
Tusruktu Samson el oan nwe infulwen fong, na el tukakek, tulakunla srungul ke mutunpot sac, wi sru lukwa ac sukan kaul mutunoa. El lippisauk ma inge ac usak nwe ke mangon eol soko oan ngeti nu Hebron.
4 And it came to pass, after this, that he loved a woman in the ravine of Shorek, whose, name, was Delilah.
Tukun ma inge, Samson el lungseyak sie mutan su muta Infahlfal Sorek. Inen mutan sac pa Delilah.
5 So the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said to her—Entice him, and see wherein lieth his great strength, and wherewith we may prevail against him, and bind him, to humble him, —and, we, will give thee, every man, eleven hundred pieces of silver.
Leum limekosr lun mwet Philistia elos som nu yurin mutan sac ac fahk, “Srike lah kom ac ku in oru elan fahkot lah mea oru ku se lal inge, ac mea kut ku in oru tuh kut in kutangulla ac kaprilya ac kunausla kuiyal. Kais sie sesr ac fah sot nu sum sie tausin siofok ipin silver.”
6 So Delilah said unto Samson, Do tell me, I pray thee, wherein lieth thy great strength, —and wherewith thou mightest be bound, to humble thee.
Na Delilah el som ac fahk nu sel Samson, “Fahkma nu sik lah mea se oru ku se lom ingan. Mwet se fin lungse kaprikomi ac kunausla kuiyom, el ac oru fuka?”
7 And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with seven green cords, that have not been dried, then shall I become weak, and be as any other man.
Ac Samson el fahk, “Mwet se fin kapriyuwi ke ah in pisr itkosr su srakna sasu ac soenna paola, na nga ac munasla oana mwet nukewa.”
8 So the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green cords, that had not been dried, —and she bound him therewith.
Na leum lun mwet Philistia elos use ah in pisr na sasu itkosr su soenna paola, ac sang nu sel Delilah, ac el sang kaprilya Samson.
9 Now, the liers in wait, were tarrying for her, in an inner chamber, —and she said unto him, —The Philistines, are upon thee, Samson! And he snapped the cords as a thread of tow is broken, when fire bloweth thereon, so his strength was not discovered.
Delilah el tuh okanla kutu mwet ke sie pac infukil, na el wowo ac fahk, “Samson, mwet Philistia pa tuku inge!” Na Samson el wotyalik ah in pisr inge oana ke turet soko ac wotelik ke ac pusralla e uh. Ouinge elos tiana konauk lah ku lal tuku ya me.
10 And Delilah said unto Samson, Lo! thou hast been laughing at me, and speaking unto me falsehoods, —Now, do tell me, I pray thee, wherewith thou mightest be bound.
Na Delilah el fahk nu sel Samson, “Liye, kom tiana kaskas pwaye nu sik, a kom aklalfonyeyu! Nunak munas, fahk nu sik lah ac orek fuka in kapiri kom.”
11 And he said unto her, If they, bind me fast, with new ropes, wherewith work was never done, then shall I become weak, and be as any other man.
Na Samson el fahk mu, “Mwet fin kapriyuwi ke sucl sasu ma soenna orekmakinyuk, na nga ac munasla oana mwet nukewa.”
12 So Delilah took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said unto him—The Philistines, are upon thee, Samson! Now, the liers in wait, were tarrying in an inner chamber. And he snapped them off his arms like a thread.
Ouinge Delilah el sang kutu sucl sasu kaprilya. Na el wowo ac fahk, “Samson, mwet Philistia pa tuku inge!” (Oasr na mwet soano ke sie pac infukil.) Na Samson el sifilpa wotyalik sucl ekasr ah oana turet uh.
13 And Delilah said unto Samson—Hitherto, hast thou been laughing at me, and speaking unto me falsehoods, do tell me, wherewith thou mightest be bound. And he said unto her, If thou weave the seven braids of my head with the warp.
Na Delilah el sifilpa fahk nu sel Samson, “Kom srakna aklalfonyeyu ac kikiap nu sik. Fahkma lah ac orek fuka in kapiri kom.” Samson el topuk ac fahk nu sel, “Kom fin orani aunsuf nu ke srup itkosr ac sang otwela nu ke sie mwe orek nuknuk, ac sang sak in mwe otwot soko ah, ac itungya, na nga ac munasla oana mwet nukewa.”
14 So she beat them up with the pin, and said unto him, The Philistines, are upon thee, Samson! And he awaked out of his sleep, and pulled out the pin of the loom, and the warp.
Na Delilah el oru tuh Samson elan motulla, na el orani aunsifal nu ke srup itkosr, ac otwela nu ke mwe orek nuknuk, ac itungya ke sak in mwe otwot sac, na el wowo ac fahk, “Samson, mwet Philistia pa tuku inge!” Na Samson el ngutalik ac tulakunla aunsifal liki mwe orek nuknuk sac.
15 And she said unto him—How canst thou say, I love thee, when, thy heart, is not with me? These three times, hast thou laughed at me, and hast not told me wherein lieth thy great strength.
Na Delilah el fahk nu sel, “Efu ku kom fahk mu kom lungse nga, a kom tiana fahk ke insiom na pwaye— Kom kiapweyula pacl tolu, a kom tiana akkalemye lah mea oru ku se lom ingan.”
16 And it came to pass, when she urged him with her words continually, and pressed him, that his soul became impatient, unto death;
El kwafe ouinge nu sel len nukewa, nwe ke na Samson el arulana ulla sel,
17 so he told her all his heart, and said to her—No, razor, hath come on my head, for, one separate unto God, have I been, from my birth, —if I were shaven, then would depart from me my strength, and I should become weak, and be as any other man.
ac el tari na fahk na pwaye ma el siyuk sel ah. El mu, “Wangin sie pacl insifuk kalkulla. Ke nga isusla elos sriyula nu sin God tuh nga in sie mwet Nazirite. Fin kalkulla sifuk, na ku luk uh ac wanginla, ac nga ac fah munasla oana mwet nukewa.”
18 And, 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 hath told me all his heart. And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought up the silver in their hand.
Ke Delilah el akilen lah Samson el kaskas pwaye nu sel, na el sapla nu sin leum lun mwet Philistia ac fahk, “Sifilpa foloko. El akkalemye na pwaye ma nukewa nu sik.” Ouinge elos tuku ac us mani inpaolos.
19 And she made him sleep upon her knees, and called for a man, and caused him to shave off the seven braids of his head, —and she began to humble him, and his strength departed from him.
Delilah el akmotulyal Samson finyepal, na el sap sie mwet ah in kalla sripin aunsuf itkosr ke sifal. Na Delilah el mutawauk in akkasrkusrakyal, ac ku lal Samson mutawauk wanginla lukel.
20 And she said—The Philistines, are upon thee, Samson! And he awoke out of his sleep, and said—I will go out now, as time after time, and shake myself free: he, not knowing, that, Yahweh, had departed from him.
Na mutan sac wowo ac fahk, “Samson, mwet Philistia pa tuku inge!” Ke el ngutalik, el nunku mu el ac sukosok oana meet ah. Tusruktu el tiana etu lah LEUM GOD El som lukel.
21 And the Philistines seized him, and put out his eyes, —and took him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of bronze, and it came to pass that he used to grind in the prison.
Mwet Philistia elos sruokilya, ac tipalla atronmutal, ac usalla nu Gaza. Elos kaprilya ke mwe kapir bronze ac usalla tuh elan orekma ke mwe ilil se in presin ah.
22 And the hair of his head began to grow, after he had been shaven.
Na aunsifal sifilpa mutawauk in kapak.
23 Now, the lords of the Philistines, had gathered themselves together to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice, —and they said, Our god hath delivered into our hand, Samson our enemy.
Leum lun mwet Philistia elos fahsreni tuh elos in engan ac kisakin mwe kisa lulap nu sel Dagon, god lalos. Elos on ac fahk, “God lasr el eisalma Samson, mwet lokoalok lasr, nu inpaosr.”
24 And, when the people saw him, they praised their god, —for they said—Our god hath delivered into our hand our enemy, even him who laid waste our land, and who multiplied our slain.
Ke mwet ah liyal, elos kaksakin god lalos ac fahk, “Mwet lokoalok lasr su kunausla acn sesr ac uniya mwet puspis lasr, god lasr el eisalma nu inpaosr.”
25 And it came to pass, when their heart was merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make sport for us. So they called for Samson out of the prison, and he made sport before them, and they stationed him between the pillars.
Ke yohk engan lalos ah, elos wowoyak ac fahk, “Usalu Samson elan akpwarye kut.” Na elos usalu Samson liki presin ac sap elan tu inmasrlon sru lulap ah, ac akpwaryalos.
26 And Samson said unto the youth that held him by his hand, Place me where I may feel the pillars whereon the house resteth, that I may lean upon them.
Samson el fahk nu sin tulik se ma pwanul ah, “Pwenyula nu yen ma nga ac ku in kahlya sru ma loango lohm uh ngan mau ku in fungla kac.”
27 Now, the house, was full of men and women, there, also were all the lords of the Philistines, —and, on the roof, were about three thousand men and women, looking on while Samson made sport.
Lohm sac tingtingi ke mukul ac mutan. Leum lun mwet Philistia kewa muta pac we, ac apkuran in tolu tausin mukul ac mutan elos muta fin mangon lohm ah ngeti liye ma Samson el oru ah.
28 So then Samson cried unto Yahweh, and said, —My Lord Yahweh! remember me, I pray thee, —and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be avenged, with one avenging, for my two eyes, upon the Philistines.
Na Samson el pre ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD Fulatlana, nunak munas esamyu. O God, nga kwafe sum tuh kom in sifilpa ase ku nu sik ke pacl sefanna lula inge, tuh nga fah ku in foloksak nu sin mwet Philistia inge ke po sefanna, ke sripen atronmutuk.”
29 Then did Samson grasp the two middle pillars, whereon the house rested, and whereon it was upheld, and he braced himself against them, —the one with his right hand, and the other with his left.
Na Samson el saplakang nu ke sru lulap lukwa ma oan infulwa mwe loango lohm sac. El filiya la paol ke soko, ac la nu ke soko, ac mutawauk in sinukun,
30 And Samson said—Let my soul die with the Philistines! And he bowed mightily, and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead, whom he slew at his death, were more than they whom he slew in his life.
ac el wowoyak ac fahk, “Lela nga in misa wi mwet Philistia inge!” Na el sang kuiyal nufon sinukun sru ah, na lohm sac putati nu fin leum limekosr ac mwet saya nukewa. Ouinge, pisen mwet el uniya ke el misa ah alukela pisen mwet el tuh uniya ke pacl el moul ah.
31 Then came down his brethren, and all the house of his father, and lifted him, and carried him up, and buried him, between Zorah and Eshtaol, in the buryingplace of Manoah his father, —he, having judged Israel twenty years.
Tamulel lal ac mwet nukewa in sou lun papa tumal ah elos tuku in eis manol. Elos folokunla ac piknilya ke kulyuk lal Manoah, papa tumal ah, inmasrlon Zorah ac Eshtaol. Samson el tuh mwet nununku lun mwet Israel ke yac longoul.
