< Judges 15 >

1 After some days, during the time of wheat harvest, Samson took a young goat and went to visit his wife. He said to himself, “I will go to my wife's room.” But her father would not allow him to go in.
Ergasii yeroo qamadiin walitti qabamutti Saamsoon korma reʼee xinnaa isaa fudhatee niitii isaa ilaaluu dhaqe. Innis, “Ani daree niitii koo nan seena” jedhe. Abbaan niitii isaa garuu eeyyamuufii dide.
2 Her father said, “I really thought you hated her, so I gave her to your friend. Her younger sister is more beautiful than she is, is she not? Take her instead.”
Innis, “Ani waan ati ishee jibbiteerta jedhee dhugumaan amaneef miinjee keetti ishee heerumsiiseera; obboleettiin ishee quxisuun, ishee caalaa bareedduu mitii? Qooda sanaa ishee fudhadhu” jedheen.
3 Samson said to them, “This time I will be innocent in regard to the Philistines when I hurt them.”
Saamsoon deebisee, “Ani yeroo kanatti yoo miidhaa kam iyyuu Filisxeemota irraan gaʼe itti hin gaafatamu” isaaniin jedhe.
4 Samson went and caught three hundred foxes and he tied together each pair, tail to tail. Then he took torches and tied them in the middle of each pair of tails.
Kanaafuu inni achii baʼee waangota dhibba sadii qabee lama lamaan eegee isaanii walitti hidhe. Eegee lamaan lamaan isaanii irrattis guca guduunfe;
5 When he had set the torches on fire, he let the foxes go into the standing grain of the Philistines, and they set fire to both the stacked grain and the grain standing in the field, along with the vineyards and the olive orchards.
ibiddas itti qabsiisee qamadii Filisxeemotaa keessatti waangota sana gad lakkise. Midhaan haamamee fi kan hin haamaminitti akkasumas iddoo dhaabaa wayiniitii fi ejersaa guggube.
6 The Philistines asked, “Who did this?” They were told, “Samson, the Timnite's son-in-law, did this because the Timnite took Samson's wife and gave her to his friend.” Then the Philistines went and burned up her and her father.
Yeroo Filisxeemonni, “Eenyutu waan kana godhe?” jedhanii gaafatanitti, “Saamsoon dhirsa intala namicha Tiimnaahi sanaatu sababii niitiin isaa miinjee isaatti jalaa heerumsiifamteef waan kana godhe” jedhamee isaanitti himame. Kanaafuu Filisxeemonni ol baʼanii niitii Saamsoonii fi abbaa ishee gubanii ajjeesan.
7 Samson said to them, “If this is what you do, I will get my revenge against you, and after that is done, I will stop.”
Saamsoonis, “Erga isin akkas gootanii ani hamma haaloo koo baafadhutti isin hin dhiisu” isaaniin jedhe.
8 Then he cut them to pieces, hip and thigh, with a great slaughter. Then he went down and lived in a cave in the cliff of Etam.
Akka malees isaan dhaʼee hedduu isaanii galaafate. Ergasii gad buʼee holqa kattaa Eexaam keessa jiraate.
9 Then the Philistines came up and they prepared for battle in Judah and set up their army in Lehi.
Filisxeemonnis ol baʼanii naannoo Lehiitti faffacaʼanii Yihuudaa keessa qubatan.
10 The men of Judah said, “Why have you come up to attack us?” They said, “We are attacking so we may capture Samson, and do to him as he has done to us.”
Namoonni Yihuudaas, “Isin maaliif nu waraanuuf dhuftan?” jedhanii isaan gaafatan. Isaanis deebisanii, “Nu Saamsoon hiinee waan inni nu godhe sana isa godhuuf dhufne” jedhan.
11 Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cave in the cliff of Etam, and they said to Samson, “Do you not know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What is this you have done to us?” Samson said to them, “They did to me, and so I have done to them.”
Ergasiis namoonni kuma sadii Yihuudaadhaa gara holqa Eexaamitti gad buʼanii Saamsooniin, “Ati maali nu goote? Akka Filisxeemonni nu bulchan hin beektuu?” jedhan. Innis, “Ani waanuma isaan na godhan sana isaan irratti nan godhe” jedhee deebise.
12 They said to Samson, “We have come down to tie you up and give you into the hands of the Philistines.” Samson said to them, “Swear to me that you will not kill me yourselves.”
Isaanis, “Nu si hiinee dabarsinee Filisxeemotatti si kennuuf dhufne” jedhaniin. Saamsoon immoo, “Isin mataan keessan akka na hin ajjeefne naa kakadhaa” jedhe.
13 They said to him, “No, we will only tie you with ropes and hand you over to them. We promise we will not kill you.” Then they tied him up with two new ropes and brought him up from the rock.
Isaanis, “Tole, nu si hiinee dabarsinee harka isaaniitti si kennina malee ofii keenyaan siʼi hin ajjeefnu” jedhaniin. Kanaafuu funyoo haaraa lamaan isa hidhanii holqa keessaa isa baasan.
14 When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting as they met him. Then Yahweh's Spirit came on him with power. The ropes on his arms became like burnt flax, and they fell off his hands.
Yeroo inni Lehiitti dhiʼaatettis Filisxeemonni iyyaa gara isaa dhufan. Hafuurri Waaqayyoos jabinaan isa irra buʼe. Funyoon harki isaa ittiin hidhamee ture sun akka quncee talbaa kan ibidda keessa buʼee taʼe; hidhaan isaas harka isaa irraa ciccite.
15 Samson found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and he picked it up and killed a thousand men with it.
Innis lafee haʼoo harree haaraa isaa argatee hiixatee fudhate; ittiinis dhaʼee nama kuma tokko fixe.
16 Samson said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps upon heaps, with the jawbone of a donkey I have killed a thousand men.”
Kana irrattis Saamsoon, “Ani lafee haʼoo harree tokkoon, wal irra isaan nan tuule; lafee haʼoo harree tokkootiin, namoota kuma tokko nan ajjeese” jedhe.
17 When Samson finished speaking, he threw away the jawbone, and he called the place Ramath Lehi.
Innis erga waan kana dubbatee fixatee booddee lafee haʼoo harree sana achi darbate; iddoon sunis Raamaat Leehii jedhame.
18 Samson was very thirsty and called on Yahweh and said, “You have given this great victory to your servant. But now will I die of thirst and fall into the hands of those who are uncircumcised?”
Innis sababii akka malee dheeboteef, “Ati moʼannaa guddaa akkanaa garbicha keetiif kenniteerta. Egaa ani amma dheebuudhaan duʼee harka warra dhagna hin qabatinii keessan buʼaa?” jechuudhaan Waaqayyoon waammate.
19 God split open the hollow place that is at Lehi and water came out. When he drank, his strength returned and he revived. So he called the name of that place En Hakkore, and it is at Lehi to this day.
Waaqnis boolla Lehii keessa jiru dhoosee bishaan baase. Saamsoonis yommuu bishaan sana dhugetti humni isaa deebiʼeefii jabaate. Kanaafuu burqaan suni Een Haqoree jedhamee moggaafame. Innis hamma harʼaatti achuma Leehiitti argama.
20 Samson judged Israel in the days of the Philistines for twenty years.
Saamsoon bara Filisxeemotaa keessa waggaa digdama Israaʼeloota bulche.
