< Judges 13 >

1 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
Mwet Israel elos sifilpa oru ma koluk ye mutun LEUM GOD, ke ma inge LEUM GOD El lela tuh mwet Philistia in leum faclos yac angngaul.
2 And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name [was] Manoah; and his wife [was] barren, and bore not.
In pacl sac oasr sie mwet in siti Zorah su pangpang Manoah, sin sruf lal Dan, ac mutan kial ah el sie mutan talap.
3 And the angel of the LORD appeared to the woman, and said to her, Behold, now, thou [art] barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.
Na lipufan lun LEUM GOD sikyang nu sin mutan sac ac fahk, “Soenna oasr tulik nutum mweyen kom talap, tusruktu ac tia paht kom ac pitutu, ac oswela sie wen.
4 Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine, nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean [thing]:
Karinganang tuh kom in tia nim wain ku kutena mwe nim ku, ac nik kom kang kutena mongo ma oal.
5 For lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from his birth: and he shall begin to deliver Israel from the hand of the Philistines.
Na tukun wen se nutum an el isusla, kom in tia kal aunsifal, mweyen len se na ma el isusla ah fahla el fah sriyukla nu sin God oana sie mwet Nazirite. El pa ac molela mwet Israel liki inpoun mwet Philistia.”
6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came to me, and his countenance [was] like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he [was], neither did he tell me his name:
Na mutan sac som ac fahk nu sin mukul tumal, “Sie mwet lun God tuku nu yuruk. Arulana aksangeng lumahl, oana elan sie lipufan lun God. Nga tiana siyuk lah el tuku ya me, ac el tia pacna fahk inel nu sik.
7 But he said to me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean [thing]: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from his birth to the day of his death.
Tusruktu el fahk nu sik lah nga ac fah pitutu ac oswela sie wen. Ac el fahk pac mu nga in tiana nim wain ku kutena mwe nim ku, ku kang kutena mongo oal, mweyen tulik sac ac fah sie mwet Nazirite nu sin God ke lusen moul lal nufon.”
8 Then Manoah entreated the LORD, and said, O my LORD, let the man of God, whom thou didst send come again to us, and teach us what we shall do to the child that shall be born.
Na Manoah el pre nu sin LEUM GOD ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD, nunak munas, lela tuh mwet lun God se su kom supwama meet ah in sifil foloko nu yorosr ac fahk nu sesr lah mea kut ac oru nu sin tulik se inge ke el ac isusla uh.”
9 And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again to the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband [was] not with her.
God El oru oana ma Manoah el siyuk ah. Lipufan lun God sifilpa foloko nu yurin mutan sac ke el muta in ima ah, tusruktu mukul tumal el wangin in pacl sac.
10 And the woman made haste, and ran, and showed her husband, and said to him, Behold, the man hath appeared to me, that came to me the [other] day.
Na mutan sac sulaklak som ac fahk nu sin mukul tumal, “Liye, mwet se ma tuh tuku nu yuruk ah el sifilpa sikyak nu sik!”
11 And Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said to him, [Art] thou the man that didst speak to the woman? And he said, I [am].
Manoah el tuyak ac fahsr tukun mutan kial ah, ac ke el sun mwet sac, el siyuk sel, “Ku kom pa mwet se ma sramsram nu sin mutan kiuk ah?” Na lipufan sac fahk, “Aok.”
12 And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and [how] shall we do to him?
Na Manoah el fahk, “Na inge, ke pacl se ma kas lom inge akpwayeyeyuk, mea tulik se inge ac oru? Moul fuka el ac moulkin?”
13 And the angel of the LORD said to Manoah, Of all that I said to the woman, let her beware.
Na lipufan lun LEUM GOD el fahk, “Mutan kiom an el enenu in liyaung ma nukewa nga fahk nu sel ah.
14 She may not eat of any [thing] that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean [thing]; all that I commanded her let her observe.
El tia enenu in kang kutena ma su tuku ke fokin grape, ku nim kutena wain, ku mwe nim ku, ku kang kutena mongo oal. El enenu in oru ma nukewa ma nga sapkin nu sel ah.”
15 And Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, I pray thee, let us detain thee, until we shall have made ready a kid for thee.
Manoah el fahk nu sin lipufan lun LEUM GOD, “Nunak munas, nimet kom sa som. Soano kut in akmolyela soko nani fusr kom in mongo.”
16 And the angel of the LORD said to Manoah, Though thou shouldst detain me, I will not eat of thy bread: and if thou wilt offer a burnt-offering, thou must offer it to the LORD. For Manoah knew not that he [was] an angel of the LORD.
Na lipufan lun LEUM GOD el fahk nu sel Manoah, “Kom finne ikolyuwi, nga ac tia kang mongo kom oru an. Tusruktu kom fin lungse oru, kom kisakin nu sin LEUM GOD.”
17 And Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, What [is] thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass, we may do thee honor?
Na Manoah el fahk, “Su inem an, tuh kut fah ku in akfulatye kom ke pacl se kas lom inge ac akpwayeyuk.”
18 And the angel of the LORD said to him, why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it [is] secret?
Na lipufan sac el siyuk, “Efu ku kom ke etu inek? Inek sie ine lukma.”
19 So Manoah took a kid, with a meat-offering, and offered [it] upon a rock to the LORD; and [the angel] did wonderously, and Manoah and his wife looked on.
Na Manoah el eis soko nani fusr ac kutu wheat, ac el kisakin ma inge fin sie eot nu sin LEUM GOD su oru ma usrnguk.
20 For it came to pass, when the flame ascended towards heaven from off the altar, that the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on [it], and fell on their faces to the ground.
Ke pacl se e sac firiryak liki loang sac, na lipufan lun LEUM GOD el weak firir sac nu inkusrao. Ke Manoah ac mutan kial ah ngetang liye ma inge, eltal putati ac faksufi nu infohk uh.
21 But the angel of the LORD did no more appear to Manoah and to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he [was] an angel of the LORD.
Lipufan lun LEUM GOD el tia sifil sikyak nu sel Manoah ac mutan kial ah, na Manoah el tufah akilenak lah lipufan lun LEUM GOD pa mwet sac.
22 And Manoah said to his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.
Manoah el fahk nu sin mutan kial ah, “Pwayena lah kut ac misa, mweyen kut liyalak God!”
23 But his wife said to him, If the LORD were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt-offering and a meat-offering at our hands, neither would he have showed us all these [things], nor would, as at this time, have told us [such things] as these.
Na mutan kial ah topuk ac fahk, “LEUM GOD El funu lungse unikuti, El lukun tia insewowo ke mwe kisa kut orala, ac El lukun tia pac akkalemye ma inge nu sesr, ku fahkak kas ouinge nu sesr ke pacl se inge.”
24 And the woman bore a son, and called his name Samson. And the child grew, and the LORD blessed him.
Na mutan sac oswela wen se, ac sang inel Samson. Ac tulik sac el kapak, ac LEUM GOD El akinsewowoyal.
25 And the Spirit of the LORD began to move him at times in the camp of Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
Ac ku lun LEUM GOD mutawauk in akkeyal ke el muta ke iwen aktuktuk lun mwet Dan in masrlon acn Zorah ac acn Eshtaol.
