Judges 14
1 Samson went down to Timnah, and there he saw a woman, one of the daughters of the Philistines.
Nizotso mb’e Timnate t’i Simsone le nahaisake somondrara e Timnate ao, anak’ ampela’ o nte-Pilistio.
2 When he returned, he told his father and mother, “I saw a woman in Timnah, one of the daughters of the Philistines. Now get her for me to be my wife.”
Nimb’ aman-drae’e mb’eo re nitalily ama’e naho aman-drene’e, ty hoe: Nahatrea ampela e Timnate iraho, anak’ ampela’ o nte-Pilistio; ehe alao ho valiko.
3 His father and mother said to him, “Is there not a woman among the daughters of your relatives, or among all our people? Are you going to take a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?” Samson said to his father, “Get her for me, for when I look at her, she pleases me.”
Le hoe ty rae’e naho i rene’e tama’e, Tsy mahatrea amo anak’ ampelan-dongo’oo ndra am’ ondatiko iabio hao, te o nte-Pilisty tsy nisavareñeo ty ipaia’o valy? Le hoe t’i Simsone aman-drae’e, Alao ho ahy re fa mahafale ty troko.
4 But his father and his mother did not know that this matter came from Yahweh, for he desired to create a conflict with the Philistines (for at that time the Philistines were ruling Israel).
Tsy nifohin-drae’e ndra i rene’e te Iehovà ty nipay aze hiatreàtre amo nte-Pilistio, amy te nandily Israele o nte-Pilistio tañ’ andro izay.
5 Then Samson went down to Timnah with his father and his mother, and they came to the vineyards of Timnah. And, look, there one of the young lions came up and was roaring at him.
Aa le nitrao-pizotso aman-drae’e naho i rene’e mb’e Timnate mb’eo t’i Simsone, ie avy an-tanem-bahe’ i Timnate eo, hehe ty anan-diona nitroñe mb’ ama’e mb’eo.
6 Yahweh's Spirit suddenly came on him, and he tore the lion apart as easily as he would have torn apart a small goat, and he had nothing in his hand. But he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.
Nitotsak’ ama’e t’i Arofo’ Iehovà, le rinia’e manahake ty fandriatañe vik’ose, leo raha raike tsy tam-pità’e; fe tsy natalili’e aman-drae’e ndra an-drene’e i nanoe’ey.
7 He went and spoke with the woman, and when he looked at her, she pleased Samson.
Le nizotso mb’eo re nifanaontsy amy somondraray naho vata’e nitea’ i Simsone.
8 A few days later when he returned to marry her, he turned aside to look for the carcass of the lion. And, look, there was a swarm of bees and honey in what was left of the lion's body.
Ie añe, nibalike hangalak’ aze fe nitsile hey hahaisake ty fate’ i lionay, naho naheo’e te nisamborien-drene-tantele i faten-dionay vaho aman-tantele.
9 He scraped up the honey in his hands and went on, eating as he went. When he came to his father and his mother, he gave some to them, and they ate. But he did not tell them he had taken the honey out of what was left of the lion's body.
Kinaro’e am-pità’e le nikama t’ie nañavelo; aa ie nifanampe aman-drae’e naho i rene’e le nanjotsoa’e, f’ie tsy nitalily am’iareo te nakare’e an-karankan-diona ao.
10 Samson's father went down to where the woman was, and Samson gave a feast there, for this was the custom of the young men.
Aa le nizotso mb’amy somondraray ty rae’e vaho nanao sabadidak’ ao t’i Simsone, amy t’ie nilili’ o ajalahio.
11 As soon as her relatives saw him, they brought him thirty of their friends to be with him.
Ie naharendrek’ aze iereo le mbe nandesañe rañetse telo-polo ila’e hitraok’ ama’e;
12 Samson said to them, “Let me now tell you a riddle. If one of you can find it out and tell me the answer during the seven days of the feast, I will give out thirty linen robes and thirty sets of clothes.
le hoe t’i Simsone am’ iereo, ho taroñeko tafatoño nahareo henaneo, aa naho eo ty mahatoiñe naho mahafandrendrek’ aze amako añate’ ty fito andro’ i sabadidakey, le hatoloko anahareo ty lamba leny telopolo, miharo sarimbo telopolo.
13 But if you cannot tell me the answer, then you will give me thirty linen robes and thirty sets of clothes.” They said to him, “Tell us your riddle, so we may hear it.”
Aa ie tsy mahafitaroñe aze amako, le inahareo ro hanolotse ahy lamba leny telopolo naho sarimbo telopolo. Le hoe ty asa’ iareo ama’e: Akaro i razan-dreha’oy hijanjiña’ay.
14 He said to them, “Out of the eater was something to eat; out of the strong was something sweet.” But his guests could not find the answer in three days.
Hoe re tam’ iereo, Boak’ ami’ty mpihinañe ty niakaran-kaneñe naho boak’ ami’ty maozatse ty niakara’ ty mamy. Fe tsy nahabejañe i tafatoñoy iereo añate’ ty telo andro.
15 On the fourth day they said to Samson's wife, “Trick your husband so that he may tell us the answer to the riddle, or we will burn up you and your father's house. Did you invite us here in order to make us poor?”
Ie amy andro faha-fitoy, le nanoe’ iereo ty hoe i vali’ i Simsoney: Sigiho ty vali’o hitaroña’e i tafatoñoy tsy mone ho forototoe’ay añ’ afo irehe naho ty anjomban-drae’o; handrarak’ anay hao ty nañambara’o anay? Ie izay.
16 Samson's wife started to weep in front of him; she said, “All you do is hate me! You do not love me. You have told a riddle to some of my people, but you have not told me the answer.” Samson said to her, “Look here, if I have not told my father or my mother, should I tell you?”
Aa le niharovetse amy Simsone ty vali’e, nanao ty hoe: Toe heje’o iraho naho tsy kokoa’o, amy te nitaron-drazan-drehak’ amo ana’ ondatikoo fe tsy natalili’o amako. Le hoe re tama’e, Inao, ie tsy vinolako aman-draeko ndra amy reneko, ho volañeko ama’o hao?
17 She cried during the seven days that their feast lasted. On the seventh day he told her the answer because she pressured him very much. She told the answer to the relatives of her people.
F’ie nirovetse añatrefa’e avao amy fito andro’ i sabadida’ iareoy, le amy fañembera’e aze, nampandrendrehe’e amy andro faha-fitoy, vaho nabora’e am’ondatio i razan-drehakey.
18 Before the sun went down on the seventh day the men of the city said to him, “What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?” Samson said to them, “If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have found the answer to my riddle.”
Aa le hoe o roandria’ i rovaio ama’e amy andro fahafitoy aolo’ i tsofots’ àndroy: Ino ty mamy te amo tanteleo? vaho ino ty maozatse te amo lionao? Le hoe re am’ iereo. Naho tsy hinaotsao’ areo i kiloakoy, le tsy ho nioni’ areo i tafatoñokoy.
19 Then Yahweh's Spirit suddenly came on Samson with power. Samson went down to Ashkelon and killed thirty of their men. He took their plunder, and he gave their clothes to those who had explained the riddle. Burning with anger, he went up to his father's house.
Nitotsak’ ama’e amy zao ty Arofo’Iehovà, le nizotso mb’e Askelone mb’eo nanjamañe ondaty telopolo naho nikopahe’e vaho natolo’e amo nahavale i tafatoñoio o saroñeo. Nisolebotse amy zao ty haviñera’e, le nionjomb’ añ’ anjomban-drae’e mb’eo.
20 Samson's wife was given to his best friend.
Le natolotse amy mpiama’e nanoe’e mpandrorotsey i vali’ey.
