< Judges 14 >

1 And he went down Samson Timnah towards and he saw a woman in Timnah one of [the] daughters of [the] Philistines.
Samson te Timnah la a suntlak vaengah huta pakhat, Philisti nu te Timnah ah a hmuh.
2 And he went up and he told to father his and to mother his and he said a woman I have seen in Timnah one of [the] daughters of [the] Philistines and now get her for me to a wife.
Te dongah ha bal tih a napa neh a manu taengah a thui pah tih, “Timnah ah Philisti nu huta ka hmuh tih anih te kai yuu la han lo laeh,” a ti nah.
3 And he said to him father his and mother his ¿ [is] there not among [the] daughters of brothers your and among all people my a woman that you [are] going to take a wife from [the] Philistines uncircumcised and he said Samson to father his her get for me for she she is pleasing in view my.
Tedae a napa neh a manu loh, “Na manuca kah tanu lakli neh ka pilnam cungkuem lakli ah om pawt tih a? Philisti pumdul te yuu la loh ham tekah huta te na paan eh,” a ti nah. Tedae a napa taengah Samson loh, “Ka mik loh a nai coeng dongah anih mah kai ham han lo laeh,” a ti nah.
4 And father his and mother his not they knew that [was] from Yahweh it for an occasion he [was] seeking from [the] Philistines and at the time that [the] Philistines [were] ruling over Israel.
Te vaeng tue ah Philisti loh Israel a ngol thil dongah BOEIPA loh Philisti taengah a tuetang a dawn te Samson kah a napa neh a manu loh ming pawh.
5 And he went down Samson and father his and mother his Timnah towards and they came to [the] vineyards of Timnah and there! a young lion of lions [was] roaring to meet him.
Samson loh a manu a napa te Timnah la a suntlak puei tih Timnah misur a pha uh vaengah tah sathueng khuikah sathuengca loh samson cuuk thil ham tarha kawk.
6 And it rushed on him [the] spirit of Yahweh and he tore apart it as tears apart kid and [was] anything there not in hand his and not he told to father his and to mother his [that] which he had done.
BOEIPA Mueihla loh Samson te a thaihtak sak dongah maae ca a baeh bangla sathueng te a baeh tih, a kut dongah pakhat khaw kap pawh. Tedae a saii te a manu a napa taengah thui pawh.
7 And he went down and he spoke to the woman and she was pleasing in [the] eyes of Samson.
Suntla tih huta taengah a cal vaengah mah Samson mik dongah thuem.
8 And he returned from days to take her and he turned aside to see [the] carcass of the lion and there! a swarm of bees [was] in [the] carcass of the lion and honey.
Khohnin a thok phoeiah a yuu te loh ham a mael vaengah sathueng a cungkunah te sawt ham a phael hatah sathueng rhok dongah khoi ana bop tih khoitui te lawt a hmuh.
9 And he scraped out it into palms his and he went continuously and eating and he came to father his and to mother his and he gave to them and they ate and not he told to them that from [the] carcass of the lion he had scraped out the honey.
Te dongah khoi te a kut neh a poh tih a caeh, a caeh doela a caak. A manu a napa taengah a pha vaengah amih rhoi te khaw a paek tih a caak rhoi. Tedae sathueng rhok khui lamkah khoitui a poh te amih rhoi taengah thui pawh.
10 And he went down father his to the woman and he prepared there Samson a feast for thus they did the young men.
Te phoeiah huta taengah a napa te cet tih tongpang rhoek loh a saii uh noek bangla Samson loh buhkoknah pahoi a saii.
11 And it was when saw they him and they took thirty companions and they were with him.
Anih te a hmuh uh vaengah baerhoep sawmthum a khuen uh tih anih taengah om uh.
12 And he said to them Samson let me ask a riddle please to you a riddle certainly [if] you will tell it to me [the] seven [the] days of the feast and you will find [it] out and I will give to you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of garments.
Amih te Samson loh, “Nangmih taengah ka thui olkael he buhkoknah hnin rhih khuiah kai taengah han thui rhoela han thui uh. Na puk uh atah hni sawmthum neh thovaelnah himbai sawmthum te nangmih kam pae eh.
13 And if not you will be able to tell to me and you will give you to me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of garments and they said to him ask [the] riddle! riddle your so we may hear it.
Tedae kai taengah na thui ham na coeng uh pawt atah kai he nangmih loh hni sawmthum neh thovaelnah himbai sawmthum nam paek uh van ni,” a ti nah. Te dongah Samsawn te, “Na olkael te thui lamtah ka hnatun uh lah eh,” a ti uh.
14 And he said to them from the eater it came out food and from a strong [one] it came out a sweet [thing] and not they were able to tell the riddle three days.
Te phoeiah amih te, “Aka hnom khui lamkah caak ha thoeng tih aka tlung khui lamkah didip ha thoeng,” a ti nah hatah olkael ming ham te hnin thum khuiah coeng uh thai voel pawh.
15 And it was - on the day seventh and they said to [the] wife of Samson entice husband your so may he tell to us the riddle lest we should burn you and [the] house of father your with fire ¿ to impoverish us did you invite us ¿ [is it] not [so].
Hnin rhih a pha vaengah Samson yuu taengah, “Na va te hloih lamtah olkael te kaimih ham thui laeh saeh, namah neh na pa imkhui hmai neh kang hoeh uh ve, kaimih talh ham nim kaimih taengla nang khue,” a ti na uh.
16 And she wept [the] wife of Samson over him and she said only you hate me and not you love me the riddle you have asked [the] riddle to [the] sons of people my and to me not you have told and he said to her here! to father my and to mother my not I have told and to [why] you will I tell?
Te dongah Samson yuu te a taengah a rhah pah tih, “Kai nan nen tih nan lungnah pawt dongah ka pilnam khuikah ka nganpa rhoek te olkael neh na voek khaw kai taengah nan thui pawh,” a ti nah. Tedae Samson loh, “A nu a pa taengah pataeng ka thui pawt te nang taengah tarha ka thui aya?” a ti nah.
17 And she wept over him [the] seven the days which it belonged to them the feast and it was - on the day seventh and he told to her for she pressed him and she told the riddle to [the] sons of people her.
Amih ham buhkoknah a om duela hnin rhih khuiah samson te a rhah thil. Tedae a hnin rhih dongla a pha vaengah tah Samson te moelh a kilh dongah a yuu ham te a thui pah tih a yuu loh a pilnam khuikah a hlang rhoek taengah olkael te a thui pah.
18 And they said to him [the] men of the city on the day seventh before it went the sun what? [is] sweet more than honey and what? [is] strong more than a lion and he said to them if not you had plowed with heifer my not you found out riddle my.
Te dongah a hnin rhih dongah tah khopuei hlang rhoek loh vinhna bangla a hnai hlanah, “Khoitui lakah balae aka didip tih sathueng lakah balae aka tlung?” a ti nah. Tedae amih te Samson loh, “Kai kah vaito neh na phayai uh pawt koinih ka olkael he na puk uh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
19 And it rushed on him [the] spirit of Yahweh and he went down Ashkelon and he struck down of them - thirty man and he took spoils their and he gave the changes to [those who] told the riddle and it burned anger his and he went up [the] house of father his.
BOEIPA Mueihla loh Samson te a thaihtak sak dongah Ashkelon la suntla tih hlang sawmthum a ngawn. Amih kah pumoep te a loh pah tih olkael aka thui rhoek te thovaelnah himbai te a paek. Tedae a thintoek a sai doeah a napa im la mael.
20 And she belonged [the] wife of Samson to companion his who he was a special friend to him.
Samson yuu te anih taengah aka luem a baerhoep taengla a om pah.
