Judges 15
1 During the time that they harvested wheat, Samson took a young goat to Timnah as a present for his wife. He planned to sleep with [EUP] his wife, but her father would not let him go into [her room].
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà díẹ̀, ní àkókò ìkórè alikama, Samsoni mú ọ̀dọ́ ewúrẹ́ kan láti bẹ ìyàwó rẹ̀ wò. Ó ní, “Èmi yóò wọ yàrá ìyàwó mi lọ.” Ṣùgbọ́n baba rẹ̀ kò gbà á láààyè láti wọlé.
2 He said to Samson, “I really thought that you hated her. So I gave her to the man who had been your best man at the wedding, and she married him. But look, her younger sister is [RHQ] more beautiful than she is. You can marry her!”
Baba ìyàwó dá a lóhùn pé, “Ó dá mi lójú pé o kórìíra rẹ̀, torí náà mo ti fi fún ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ, ṣe bí àbúrò rẹ̀ obìnrin kò ha lẹ́wà jùlọ? Fẹ́ ẹ dípò rẹ̀.”
3 Samson replied, “No! And this time I have a right to get revenge on you Philistines!”
Samsoni dáhùn pé, “Ní àkókò yìí tí mo bá ṣe àwọn Filistini ní ibi èmi yóò jẹ́ aláìjẹ̀bi.”
4 Then he went out [into the fields] and caught 300 foxes. He tied their tails together, two-by-two. He fastened torches to each pair of tails.
Samsoni sì jáde lọ, ó mú ọ̀ọ́dúnrún kọ̀lọ̀kọ̀lọ̀ ó so ìrù wọn mọ́ ara wọn ní méjì méjì. Ó mú ètùfù iná, ó so ó mọ́ àwọn ìrù tí ó so pọ̀.
5 Then he lit the torches and let the foxes run through the fields of the Philistines. The fire [from the torches] burned all the grain to the ground, including the grain that had been cut and piled in bundles. The fire also burned down their grapevines and their olive trees.
Ó fi iná ran àwọn ètùfù tí ó so náà, ó sì jọ̀wọ́ wọn lọ́wọ́ lọ sínú àwọn oko ọkà àwọn Filistini. Ó jó àwọn pòpóòrò ọkà tí ó dúró àti àwọn tí a dì ní ìtí, ìtí, pẹ̀lú àwọn ọgbà àjàrà àti olifi.
6 The Philistines asked, “Who did this?” Someone told them, “Samson did it. He married a woman from Timnah, but then his father-in-law gave her to the man who was Samson’s best man at the wedding, and she married him.” So the Philistines went [to Timnah] and got the woman and her father, and burned them to death.
Nígbà tí àwọn Filistini béèrè pé, “Ta ni ó ṣe èyí?” Wọ́n dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Samsoni ará Timna ni, nítorí a gba ìyàwó rẹ̀ fún ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀.” Nítorí náà àwọn Filistini lọ wọ́n sì sun obìnrin náà àti baba rẹ̀.
7 Samson [found out about that, and he] said to them, “Because you have done this, I will not stop until I get revenge on you!”
Samsoni sọ fún un pé, “Nítorí pé ẹ̀yin ṣe èyí, èmi ó gbẹ̀san lára yín, lẹ́yìn náà èmi yóò sì dẹ́kun.”
8 So he attacked the Philistines furiously, and killed many of them. Then he went [to hide] in a cave in the large rock at a place called Etam.
Ó kọlù wọ́n pẹ̀lú ìbínú àti agbára ńlá, ó sì pa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ nínú wọn. Lẹ́yìn náà ni ó lọ, ó sì dúró nínú ihò àpáta kan nínú àpáta Etamu.
9 The Philistines [did not know where he was, so they] went up to where the descendants of Judah lived, set up their tents near Lehi [town and then raided the town].
Àwọn ará Filistini sì dìde ogun sí Juda, wọ́n ti tan ara wọn ká sí agbègbè Lehi.
10 The men there asked the Philistines, “Why have you attacked us?” The Philistines replied, “We have come to capture Samson. We have come to get revenge on him for what he did to us.”
Àwọn ọkùnrin Juda sì béèrè pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ fi wá gbóguntì wá?” Ìdáhùn wọn ni pé, “A wá láti mú Samsoni ní ìgbèkùn, kí a ṣe sí i bí òun ti ṣe sí wa.”
11 [Someone there knew where Samson was hiding]. So 3,000 men from Judah went down to get Samson at the cave in the rock where he was hiding. They said to Samson, “Do you not realize that the people of Philistia are ruling over us? Do you not realize what they will do to us?” Samson replied, “The only thing I did was that I got revenge on them for what they did to me.”
Nígbà náà ni ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkùnrin láti Juda sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ihò àpáta nínú àpáta Etamu, wọ́n sì sọ fún Samsoni pé, “Kò ti yé ọ pé àwọn Filistini ní ń ṣe alákòóso lórí wa? Kí ni o ṣe sí wa?” Òun sì dáhùn pé, “Ohun tí wọ́n ṣe sí mi ni èmi náà ṣe sí wọn.”
12 But the men from Judah said to him, “We have come to tie you up and put you in the hands of the Philistines.” Samson said, “All right, but promise me that you yourselves will not kill me!”
Wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa wá láti dè ọ́, kí a sì fi ọ́ lé àwọn Filistini lọ́wọ́.” Samsoni wí pé, “Ẹ búra fún mi pé, ẹ̀yin kì yóò fúnra yín pa mí.”
13 They replied, “We will just tie you up and take you to the Philistines. We will not kill you.” So they tied him with two new ropes, and led him away from the cave.
“Àwa gbà,” ni ìdáhùn wọn. “Àwa yóò kàn dè ọ́, àwa yóò sì fi ọ́ lé wọn lọ́wọ́, àwa kì yóò pa ọ́.” Wọ́n sì dé pẹ̀lú okùn tuntun méjì, wọ́n sì mú u jáde wá láti ihò àpáta náà.
14 When they arrived at Lehi, the Philistines came toward him, shouting [triumphantly]. But Yahweh’s Spirit came upon Samson powerfully. He snapped the ropes on his arms as easily as if they were stalks of burned flax, and the ropes fell off his wrists.
Bí ó ti súnmọ́ Lehi, àwọn Filistini ń pariwo bí wọ́n ṣe ń tò bọ̀. Ẹ̀mí Olúwa bà lé e pẹ̀lú agbára. Àwọn okùn ọwọ́ rẹ̀ dàbí òwú tí ó jóná, ìdè ọwọ́ rẹ̀ já kúrò ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀.
15 Then he saw a donkey’s jawbone lying on the ground. It was fresh, [so it was hard]. He picked it up and killed about 1,000 Philistine men with it.
Nígbà tí ó rí egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ tuntun kan, ó mú un, ó sì fi pa ẹgbẹ̀rún ọkùnrin.
16 Then Samson wrote this poem: “With the jawbone of a donkey I have made them like a heap of [dead] donkeys. With the jawbone of a donkey I killed 1,000 men.”
Samsoni sì wí pé, “Pẹ̀lú egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan, mo sọ wọ́n di òkìtì kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́. Pẹ̀lú egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan, mo ti pa ẹgbẹ̀rún ọkùnrin.”
17 When he finished killing those men, he threw the jawbone away, and later that place was called Jawbone Hill.
Nígbà tí ó dákẹ́ ọ̀rọ̀ í sọ, ó ju egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ náà nù, wọ́n sì pe ibẹ̀ ní Ramati-Lehi (ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ jẹ́ egungun àgbọ̀n ìsàlẹ̀ pa).
18 Then Samson was very thirsty, so he called out to Yahweh, “You have given me strength to win a great victory. So now must I die because of being thirsty, with the result that those heathen Philistines will take away my body [and mutilate it]?”
Nítorí tí òǹgbẹ gbẹ ẹ́ gidigidi, ó ké pe Olúwa, wí pé, “Ìwọ ti fún ìránṣẹ́ ní ìṣẹ́gun tí ó tóbi yìí. Ṣé èmi yóò ha kú pẹ̀lú òǹgbẹ, kí èmi sì ṣubú sí ọwọ́ àwọn aláìkọlà ènìyàn?”
19 So God caused water to gush out of a depression in the ground at Lehi. Samson drank from it and soon felt strong again. He named that place ‘The spring of the one who called out’. That spring is still there at Lehi.
Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run la kòtò ìsun omi tí ó wà ní Lehi, omi sì tú jáde láti inú rẹ̀. Nígbà tí Samsoni mú mi tan, agbára rẹ̀ sì padà, ọkàn sì sọjí, fún ìdí èyí wọ́n pe ìsun omi náà ni. Ẹni Hakkore (orísun ẹni tí ó pe Ọlọ́run) èyí tí ó sì wà ní Lehi di òní.
20 Samson was the leader of the Israeli people for 20 years, but during that time the Philistines [were the ones who really ruled over the land].
Samsoni ṣe ìdájọ́ Israẹli fún ogún ọdún ní àkókò àwọn ará Filistini.
