Judges 13
1 Again the Israeli people did things that Yahweh said were very evil. So Yahweh enabled the people of Philistia to conquer them. They ruled over the Israelis for 40 years.
Isala: ili dunu da bu Hina Godema wadela: le hamoi. Amaiba: le, E da ilima se iasu. Gode da Filisidini dunu fidibiba: le, ilia da Isala: ili fi ilima ode 40 amoga hinawane esalu.
2 There was a man named Manoah from the descendants of Dan who lived in Zorah [town]. His wife was unable to become pregnant, so they had no children.
Amogalu, dunu ea dio amo Manoua esalu, e da Soula moilai bai bagadega esalu. E da Da: ne fi dunu. Ea uda da mano mae lalewane, aligime esalu.
3 One day, Yahweh appeared to Manoah’s wife in the form of an angel, and said to her, “Even though you have not been able to give birth to any children until now, you will soon become pregnant and give birth to a son.
Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da ema misini, amane sia: i, “Di da aligime esalu, be wali di da abula aguni, mano lalelegemu.
4 [From now until he is born], you must not drink any wine or other alcoholic/fermented drink, and you must not eat any food that will make you unacceptable to God.
Dawa: ma! Waini hano, adini amola sema ha: i manu mae moma.
5 After you give birth to your son, you must never allow his hair to be cut. He must be dedicated to God from the day he is born until the day he dies. He is the one who will rescue [many of] the Israeli people from the people of Philistia.”
Dia mano lalelegesea, ea dialuma hinabo mae damuma. Eso huluane yolesi dialoma. Bai e da eno dunuma afafane, Gode Ea ilegele momogili gagai Na: salaide dunu esalumu. E da Isala: ili dunuma gaga: su dunu ba: mu. Ilia da Filisidini ouligisu fisili, hahawane laloma: ne, e da hamomu.”
6 The woman ran and told her husband, “A prophet came to me. He looked awesome, like an angel from God. I did not ask where he came from, and he did not tell me his name.
Amalalu, amo uda da asili, egoa amoma amane sia: i, “Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu da nama misi. E da Gode Ea a: igele dunu, gasa bagade agoane ba: i. E da habidili misi, na da ema hame adole ba: i. Amola e da ea dio amo nama hame adole i.
7 But he told me, ‘You will become pregnant and give birth to a son. Until then, you must not drink any wine or any alcoholic/fermented drink, and you must not eat any food that would make you unacceptable to God. Your son must be dedicated to God from the day he is born until the day he dies.’”
Be e da nama agoane olelei. Na da abula agui ba: mu, amola dunu mano lalelegemu. E da nama, na da waini hano amola adini mae moma: ne sia: i, amola sema ha: i manu mae nawane sia: i. Bai amo dunu mano lalelegemu da Godema i mano, e da ea esalebe eso huluane amoga momogili gagai Na: salaide dunu esalumu.”
8 Then Manoah prayed to Yahweh, saying, “O Yahweh, I plead with you, allow that prophet whom you sent to us to come again, and teach us how we should raise the boy who will be born to us.”
Amalalu, Manoua da Godema sia: ne gadoi, amane, “Hina Gode na da Dima adole ba: sa. Dia hawa: hamosu dunu Di da asunasi, amo ania mano lalelegesea ani da adi hamoma: bela: , amo anima olema: ne, dia hawa: hamosu dunu bu asunasima.”
9 God did what Manoah asked, and Yahweh again appeared to his wife in the form of an angel, while she was out in the field. But again her husband Manoah was not with her.
Gode da Manoua ea adole ba: i defele hamoi dagoi. Manoua idua da ifabia ga esalu, amola a: igele dunu da ema misi. Be Manoua da amoga hame lelu.
10 So she quickly ran and said to her husband, “The man who appeared to me a few days ago has come back again!”
Amaiba: le, uda da hehenane, ema amane sia: i, “Ba: la misa! Dunu da gasida nama misi, amo da nama bu misi dagoi.”
11 Manoah ran back with his wife, and asked, “Are you the man who talked with my wife a few days ago?” He replied, “Yes, I am.”
Manoua da wa: legadole, idua asi fa: no bobogei. E da a: igele dunu ema amane sia: i, “Na uda amoma sia: dalu, amo dunu da dila: ?” A: igele da bu adole i, “Ma!”
12 Manoah asked him, “When what you promised occurs [and my wife gives birth to a son], what rules must he obey, and what work will he do [when he grows up]?”
Amalalu, Manoua da amane sia: i, “Dia sia: i amo didibi ania ba: sea, amo dunu mano da adi hamoma: bela: ? Ea esalebe ahoanusu hou da haboda: i esaloma: bela: ?”
13 Yahweh replied, “Your wife must obey all the instructions I gave her.
A: igele da bu adole i, “Dia uda da na sia: i huluane defele hamoma: mu.
14 [Before the baby is born], she must not eat grapes, or drink wine or any other alcoholic/fermented drink, or eat anything that would make her unacceptable to God.”
Waini efe fage ha: i manu liligi huluane mae moma: ne, na da sia: i. E da waini hano amola adini sema ha: i manu maedafa moma: ne, na sia: i. Na sia: i liligi huluanedafa, ea hamoma: ne sia: ma.”
15 Then Manoah said, “Please stay here until we can kill and cook a young goat for you.”
16 Yahweh replied, “I will stay here, but I will not eat anything. However, you may kill an animal and sacrifice it as a burned offering to Yahweh.” (Manoah did not realize that the [man he thought was an] angel was really Yahweh.)
Manoua da amo dunu da Gode Ea a: igele dunu amo hame dawa: i. Amaiba: le, e da ema amane sia: i, “Wahadafa mae masa. Ania da goudi mano dima imunusa: , gobemu.” Be a: igele dunu da bu adole i, “Na da hame ahoasea, dia ha: i manu hame manu. Be di da goudi mano gobemusa: dawa: sea, defea, amo Hina Godema imunusa: gobele salima.”
17 Then Manoah asked him, “What is your name? When what you have promised happens, we want to honor you.”
Manoua da a: igele dunuma amane sia: i, “Dia dio anima adoma. Bai dia sia: da dafawaneyale ba: sea, ania da dia dio amoma nodomusa: adomu.”
18 Yahweh replied, “(Why do you ask me my name?/You should not ask me my name.) [RHQ] It is (wonderful/it cannot be understood).”
Be a: igele dunu da bu adole i, “Dia da abuli na dio dawa: musa: hanabela: Na dio da fofogadigisu bagade liligi.”
19 Then Manoah killed a young goat and burned it on a rock, along with a grain offering, as a sacrifice to Yahweh. And Yahweh did an amazing thing while Manoah and his wife watched.
Amalalu, Manoua da goudi mano lale, amo amola gagoma gilisili oloda da: iya Hina Godema ima: ne, gobele sali. Amalalu, Manoua amola idua da balalebe lelu, Hina Gode da gasa bagade musa: hame ba: i hou hamoi.
20 Flames from the altar blazed up toward the sky, and Yahweh ascended in the flames. When Manoah and his wife saw that, they prostrated themselves on the ground.
21 Although Yahweh did not appear in the form of an angel to Manoah and his wife again, Manoah realized that the [man they thought was an] angel was really Yahweh.
Lalu gona: su da oloda amoga heda: lebe ba: loba, Manoua amola idua da agoane ba: i. Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da lalu gona: su amo ganodini Hebene diasuga heda: lebe ba: i. Amalalu, Manoua da amo dunu da Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu dawa: iou. E amola ea uda da osoboga diasa: ili, ilia odagi da osoboga doaga: i. Ela da amo a: igele dunu bu hame ba: i.
22 So he said, “Now we will die, because we have seen God!”
Manoua da iduama amane sia: i, “Ania da dafawane bogomu galebe. Bai ania da Gode ba: i dagoi.”
23 But his wife said, “No, we will not die, because if Yahweh intended to kill us, he would not have accepted the burned offering and the grain offering. And he would not have appeared to us and told us the wonderful thing that would happen to us, and he would not have performed this miracle.”
Be ea uda da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da ani medomu hanai ganiaba, E da ania gobele salasu hame lala: loba. Amola E da Ea adoi liligi amola hou anima hame olelela: loba.”
24 When their son was born, they named him Samson. Yahweh blessed him as he grew up.
Uda da dunu mano lalelegei. E da ema Sa: masane dio asuli. Amo mano da asigilalu, amola Hina Gode da e hahawane dogolegelewane fidisu.
25 And while he was in Mahaneh-Dan, which is between Zorah and Eshtaol [towns], Yahweh’s Spirit began to control him.
E da Da: ne ea fifilasu moilai amo ganodini esaloba (amo sogebi da Soula amola Esadoule dogoa dialu) amoga Hina Gode da Ea gasaga ema muni gasa bagade iasu.
