Judges 15
1 And it was from days in [the] days of [the] harvest of wheat and he visited Samson wife his with a kid of goats and he said let me go into wife my the chamber towards and not he permitted him father her to go.
Di lì a qualche tempo, verso la mietitura del grano, Sansone andò a visitare sua moglie, le portò un capretto, e disse: “Voglio entrare in camera da mia moglie”. Ma il padre di lei non gli permise d’entrare,
2 And he said father her certainly I thought that certainly you hated her and I gave her to companion your ¿ not [is] sister her young good more than her let her belong please to you in place of her.
e gli disse: “Io credevo sicuramente che tu l’avessi presa in odio, e però l’ho data al tuo compagno; la sua sorella minore non e più bella di lei? Prendila dunque in sua vece”.
3 And he said to them Samson I will be free this time from [the] Philistines for [am] about to do I with them harm.
Sansone rispose loro: “Questa volta, non avrò colpa verso i Filistei, quando farò loro del male”.
4 And he went Samson and he captured three hundred foxes and he took torches and he turned tail to tail and he put a torch one between [the] two the tails in the middle.
E Sansone se ne andò e acchiappò trecento sciacalli; prese pure delle fiaccole, volse coda contro coda, e mise una fiaccola in mezzo, fra le due code.
5 And he kindled fire on the torches and he sent [them] among [the] standing grain of [the] Philistines and it burned up from [the] heap of sheaves and unto [the] standing grain and unto [the] vineyard of olive tree[s].
Poi accese le fiaccole, dette la via agli sciacalli per i campi di grano de’ Filistei, e brucio i covoni ammassati, il grano tuttora in piedi, e perfino gli uliveti.
6 And they said [the] Philistines who? did he do this [thing] and they said Samson [the] son-in-law of the Timnite for he has taken wife his and he has given her to companion his and they went up [the] Philistines and they burned her and father her with fire.
E i Filistei chiesero: “Chi ha fatto questo?” Fu risposto: “Sansone, il genero del Thimneo, perché questi gli ha preso la moglie, e l’ha data al compagno di lui”. E i Filistei salirono e diedero alle fiamme lei e suo padre.
7 And he said to them Samson if you will do! like this that except I have avenged myself on you and after I will cease.
E Sansone disse loro: “Giacché agite a questo modo, siate certi che non avrò posa finché non mi sia vendicato di voi”.
8 And he struck them leg with thigh a defeat great and he went down and he dwelt in [the] cleft of [the] rock of Etam.
E li sbaragliò interamente, facendone un gran macello. Poi discese, e si ritirò nella caverna della roccia d’Etam.
9 And they went up [the] Philistines and they encamped in Judah and they were spread out at Lehi.
Allora i Filistei salirono, si accamparono in Giuda, e si distesero fino a Lehi.
10 And they said [the] man of Judah why? have you come up on us and they said to bind Samson we have come up to do to him just as he did to us.
Gli uomini di Giuda dissero loro: “Perché siete saliti contro di noi?” Quelli risposero: “Siam saliti per legare Sansone; per fare a lui quello che ha fatto a noi”.
11 And they went down three thousand man from Judah to [the] cleft of [the] rock of Etam and they said to Samson ¿ not do you know that [are] ruling over us [the] Philistines and what? this have you done to us and he said to them just as they did to me so I have done to them.
E tremila uomini di Giuda scesero alla caverna della roccia d’Etam, e dissero a Sansone: “Non sai tu che i Filistei sono nostri dominatori? Che è dunque questo che ci hai fatto?” Ed egli rispose loro: “Quello che hanno fatto a me, l’ho fatto a loro”.
12 And they said to him to bind you we have come down to give you in [the] hand of [the] Philistines and he said to them Samson swear to me lest you should fall! on me you.
E quelli a lui: “Noi siam discesi per legarti e darti nelle mani de’ Filistei”. Sansone replicò loro: “Giuratemi che voi stessi non mi ucciderete”.
13 And they said to him saying In-deed certainly we will bind you and we will give you in hand their and certainly not we will kill you and they bound him with two ropes new and they brought up him from the rock.
Quelli risposero: “No, ti legheremo soltanto, e ti daremo nelle loro mani; ma certamente non ti metteremo a morte”. E lo legarono con due funi nuove, e lo fecero uscire dalla caverna.
14 He [was] coming to Lehi (and [the] Philistines *L(abh)*) they shouted to meet him and it rushed on him [the] spirit of Yahweh and they became the ropes which [were] on arms his like flax which people have burned with fire and they dropped off bonds his from on hands his.
Quando giunse a Lehi, i Filistei gli si fecero incontro con grida di gioia; ma lo spirito dell’Eterno lo investì, e le funi che aveva alle braccia divennero come fili di lino a cui si appicchi il fuoco; e i legami gli caddero dalle mani.
15 And he found a jawbone of a donkey fresh and he stretched out hand his and he took it and he struck down with it a thousand man.
E, trovata una mascella d’asino ancor fresca, stese la mano, l’afferrò, e uccise con essa mille uomini.
16 And he said Samson with [the] jawbone of the donkey a heap two heaps with [the] jawbone of the donkey I struck down a thousand man.
E Sansone disse: “Con una mascella d’asino, un mucchio! due mucchi! Con una mascella d’asino ho ucciso mille uomini!”
17 And it was when finished he to speak and he threw the jawbone from hand his and he called the place that Ramath Lehi.
Quand’ebbe finito di parlare, gettò via di mano la mascella, e chiamò quel luogo Ramath-Lehi.
18 And he was thirsty very and he called out to Yahweh and he said you you have given by [the] hand of servant your the victory great this and now [must] I die with thirst and I fall in [the] hand of the uncircumcised [men]?
Poi ebbe gran sete; e invocò l’Eterno, dicendo: “Tu hai concesso questa gran liberazione per mano del tuo servo; e ora, dovrò io morir di sete e cader nelle mani degli incirconcisi?”
19 And he split open God the deep hollow which [is] at Lehi and they came out from it waters and he drank and it returned spirit his and he lived there-fore - he called name its En Hakkore which [is] at Lehi until the day this.
Allora Iddio fendé la roccia concava ch’è a Lehi, e ne uscì dell’acqua. Sansone bevve, il suo spirito si rianimò, ed egli riprese vita. Donde il nome di En-Hakkore dato a quella fonte, che esiste anche al dì d’oggi a Lehi.
20 And he judged Israel in [the] days of [the] Philistines twenty year[s].
Sansone fu giudice d’Israele, al tempo de’ Filistei, per vent’anni.
