< Judges 14 >

1 And he went down Samson Timnah towards and he saw a woman in Timnah one of [the] daughters of [the] Philistines.
Samsin gbadara nʼobodo Timna ebe ọ hụrụ otu nwaagbọghọ onye Filistia.
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.
Mgbe ọ lọtara nʼụlọ, ọ gwara nne na nna ya, “Ahụrụ m otu nwanyị nʼime Timna sitere nʼụmụ ndị inyom Filistia; ugbu a, lụtara m ya na nwunye.”
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.
Nne na nna ya zara ya, “Ọ bụ na ọ dịghị nwanyị dị nʼetiti ndị inyom ụmụnne gị, maọbụ nʼetiti ndị anyị niile? Gịnị mere o ji bụrụ nʼetiti ndị Filistia a na-ebighị ugwu ka i si lụtara onwe gị nwunye?” Ma Samsin sịrị nna ya, “Gaa lụtara m ya. Nʼihi na o ziri ezi nʼanya m.”
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.
(Nne na nna ya aghọtaghị na aka Onyenwe anyị dị nʼọlụlụ nwunye a Samsin chọrọ ịlụ. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-achọ ụzọ ọ ga-esi megide ndị Filistia, ndị na-achị ụmụ Izrel nʼoge ahụ.)
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.
Samsin na nne na nna ya gawara obodo Timna maka ọlụlụ nwanyị a. Mgbe ha na-erute ubi vaịnị dị obodo Timna nso, otu nwa ọdụm sitere nʼọhịa mapụta, gbọrọ ụja na-abịakwute Samsin.
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.
Nʼotu oge ahụ, Mmụọ Onyenwe anyị bịakwasịrị Samsin nʼike. O jekwuuru ọdụm ahụ, were aka ya abụọ dọwaa ya ọnụ, dịka a ga-asị na ọ bụ nwa ewu. Ma Samsin agwaghị nne na nna ya ihe mere.
7 And he went down and he spoke to the woman and she was pleasing in [the] eyes of Samson.
Ma mgbe ha bịaruru Timna, Samsin na nwaagbọghọ ahụ kparịtara ụka. Ihe banyere nwaagbọghọ ahụ dị Samsin ezi mma.
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.
Ọ laghachiri mgbe ụbọchị ole na ole gasịrị ka ọ kpọrọ ya. Ma mgbe ọ tụgharịrị ka ọ hụ ozu ọdụm ahụ, ọ hụrụ na igwe aṅụ bizi nʼime ozu ọdụm ahụ, na-emepụtakwa mmanụ aṅụ.
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.
Ọ kọpụtara mmanụ aṅụ ahụ tinye nʼaka ya, malite ịracha ka ọ na-aga nʼụzọ. Mgbe ọ bịakwutere nne na nna ya, o nyebinyere ha ụfọdụ, ha onwe ha rachakwara ya. Ma ọ gwaghị ha na o wetara ya site nʼozu ọdụm.
10 And he went down father his to the woman and he prepared there Samson a feast for thus they did the young men.
Nna ya gara ịhụ nwanyị ahụ ma Samsin kpọkọtara ụmụ okorobịa obodo ahụ meere ha oriri dịka omenaala ha sị di.
11 And it was when saw they him and they took thirty companions and they were with him.
Mgbe Samsin rutere, a kpọnyere ya ndị bịara mmemme ọnụọgụgụ ha dị iri atọ.
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.
Mgbe ahụ, Samsin gwara ha okwu sị ha, “O nwere ajụjụ, gwa m, gwa m, gwa m, m chọrọ ka unu kọwaara m. Ọ bụrụ na unu enwee ike kọwaa ya, site taa ruo nʼụbọchị asaa nke mmemme a, aga m enye unu iri uwe mwụda atọ, nyekwa unu iri uwe mwụda atọ ọzọ akpara akpa.
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.
Ọ bụrụkwanụ na unu enweghị ike kọwaa ya, unu ga-enye m iri uwe mwụda atọ, na iri uwe mwụda atọ akpara akpa.” Ha niile kwenyere sị, “Ọ dị mma. Kwuo ka anyị nụ.”
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.
Ọ gwara ha sị, “Ihe oriri si nʼime onye na-eri eri na-apụta, ọzọkwa, ihe dị ụtọ si nʼime onye dị ike pụta.” Mgbe ụbọchị atọ gasịrị, ha enwebeghịkwa ike kọwaa ya.
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].
Ma nʼụbọchị nke anọ, ha jekwuuru nwunye Samsin gwa ya okwu sị, “Chọọ ụzọ rafụta di gị ọnụ, ka ọ gwa gị ihe okwu a pụtara. Ma ọ bụghị ya, anyị ga-akpọ gị na ezinaụlọ nna gị ọkụ. Ọ bụ ịnapụ anyị ihe anyị nwere ka unu ji kpọọ anyị oku bịa nʼebe?”
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?
Mgbe ahụ nwunye Samsin buuru onwe ya tụọ nʼelu ahụ ya, nʼebe akwa, sị, “Ị kpọrọ m asị! Nʼezie, ị hụghị m nʼanya. Ị tụụrụ ndị m ilu, ma ị gwaghị m ọsịsa ya.” Ọ sịrị ya, “Lee, agwaghị m nne na nna m, ọ bụkwa gị ka m ga akọwara ya?”
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.
Ma nwanyị ahụ kwagidere akwa abalị asaa ha nọ na mmemme ahụ. Nʼikpeazụ, nʼụbọchị nke asaa, Samsin kọwaara ya okwu ahụ nʼihi na ọ nọgidere na-enye ya nsogbu. Nwanyị ahụ gakwara kọwaara ụmụ okorobịa obodo ihe okwu ahụ pụtara.
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.
Ma tupu anwụ adaa nʼụbọchị nke asaa ahụ, ndị ikom obodo ahụ sịrị ya, “Olee ihe dị ụtọ karịa mmanụ aṅụ? Gịnị dịkwa ike karịa ọdụm?” Ma Samsin zara sị ha, “A sị na unu enyeghị nwa ehi m nsogbu, unu agaraghị enwe ike kọwaa ya.”
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.
Otu mgbe ahụ kwa, Mmụọ Onyenwe anyị bịakwasịrị ya. O sitere nʼebe ahụ pụọ, gaa nʼobodo Ashkelọn. Nʼebe ahụ ka ọ nọ tigbuo iri mmadụ atọ, napụ ha uwe ha niile, chịrị ha chịnye ndị ahụ kọwaara ya ilu ahụ. Ma site nʼoke iwe, o laghachiri nʼụlọ nna ya.
20 And she belonged [the] wife of Samson to companion his who he was a special friend to him.
E duuru nwunye Samsin dunye enyi Samsin ka ha abụọ bụrụ di na nwunye.
