Judges 16
1 Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there a harlot, and went in to her.
Samson teh Gaza vah a cei. Hawvah kâyawt e napui a hmu teh a ikhai.
2 [And it was told] the Gazites, saying, Samson is come hither. And they encompassed [him], and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning when it is day we shall kill him.
Hahoi, Samson hi a tho tie hah Gazanaw koe a dei pouh awh. Hatteh king a kalup awh. Khopui kâennae longkha totouh a kâyat awh teh, karum tuettuet khodai totouh a pawp awh. Khodai toteh, thei han telah ati awh.
3 And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put [them] upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of a hill that [is] before Hebron.
Samson teh karumsaning totouh a i teh, hahoi karumsaning a thaw teh, khopui kalupnae longkha hoi a khom kahni touh a kuet teh, tarennae khuehoi a phawk teh, a loung hoi a hrawm teh, Hebron mon dawk a tâkhawng.
4 And it came to pass afterward, that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name [was] Delilah.
Hahoi, Sorek yawn e napui buet touh hah a ngai. A min teh Delilah doeh.
5 And the lords of the Philistines came to her, and said to her, Entice him, and see in what his great strength [lieth], and by what [means] we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him: and we will give thee every one of us eleven hundred [pieces] of silver.
Filistin bawinaw hah ahni koe a tho awh teh, ahni hah king katek vaiteh rektap thai nahan, a thaonae kungpui panue thai nahanlah pasawt haw, telah na panuek pawiteh, kaimouh ni tangka 1,100 touh rip na poe awh han atipouh awh.
6 And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, in what thy great strength [lieth], and with what thou mayest be bound to afflict thee.
Hahoi teh, Delilah ni Samson koevah, hettelah e na thaonae hah na dei pouh haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, katek vaiteh rektap thai nahanelah atipouh.
7 And Samson said to her, If they bind me with seven green withs, that were never dried, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.
Samson ni, napui koevah, rui kahring ni teh ka ke hoeh rae yung sari touh hoi king na katek awh pawiteh, ka tha awm hoeh vaiteh, ayânaw patetlah doeh kaawm titoe atipouh.
8 Then the lords of the Philistines brought to her seven green withs, which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.
Hahoi, Filistin bawinaw ni rui kahring e sari touh a sin awh teh, a katek awh.
9 (Now [there were] men lying in wait, abiding with her in the chamber.) And she said to him, The Philistines [are] upon thee, Samson. And he broke the withs as a thread of tow is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known.
Im e khan dawk arulahoi kapawmnaw a tâco awh teh, Samson koevah, Samson Filistinnaw ni na cusin toe atipouh. Ahni ni hote ruinaw hah hmai hoi sawi teh doukkâlat e rui patetlah ruinaw hah a tapo. Hatei, ahnie thaonae hah panuek awh hoeh.
10 And Delilah said to Samson, Behold, thou hast mocked me, and told me lies: now tell me, I pray thee, with what thou mayest be bound.
Delilah ni, Samson koevah, khenhaw! na dumyen teh, laithoe na dei. Bangtelah hoi maw na katek thai han dei leih atipouh.
11 And he said to her, If they bind me fast with new ropes that never were used, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.
Ahni ni, napui koevah, hno boihoeh rae tangron katha hoiyah, king na katek pawiteh, ka tha awm hoeh vaiteh, ayânaw patetlah doeh kaawm titoe atipouh.
12 Delilah therefore took new ropes, and bound him with them, and said to him, The Philistines [are] upon thee, Samson. (And [there were] liers in wait abiding in the chamber.) And he broke them from off his arms like a thread.
Hahoi Delilah ni tangron katha e a la teh, a katek hnukkhu, Samson Filistinnaw ni na cusin toe atipouh. Imrakhan koehoi arulahoi kapawmnaw ao. Hahoi a kut kateknae hah pahlarui tapo e patetlah soum a tapo.
13 And Delilah said to Samson, hitherto thou hast mocked me, and told me lies: tell me with what thou mayest be bound. And he said to her, If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with the web.
Delilah ni Samson koevah, laithoe doeh na dei rah. Bang patetlah hoi maw na katek han tie hah na dei pouh haw atipouh. Hat toteh, Samson ni ka sam sari touh kapek nateh, hni hoi mak na kawng sin vaiteh, tapang dawk khak hetsin pawiteh, ka thayoun vaiteh, ayânaw patetlah doeh kaawm titoe atipouh.
14 And she fastened [it] with the pin, and said to him, The Philistines [are] upon thee, Samson. And he awaked out of his sleep, and went away with the pin of the beam, and with the web.
Delilah ni a sam sari touh lah a kapek pouh teh, hni dawk mak a kawngsin teh, tapang dawk khak hetsin. Samson Filistinnaw nang ka tuk hane a tho awh toe atipouh. A hnikawng e naw khuehoi a thaw teh a cei.
15 And she said to him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when thy heart [is] not with me? Thou hast mocked me these three times, and hast not told me in what thy great strength [lieth].
Delilah ni nang ni kai lungpataw katang laipalah, bangtelamaw khuet na dei han vaw. Khenhaw! vai thum touh na dum toe. Na thaonae teh na dei hoeh rah.
16 And it came to pass when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, [so] that his soul was vexed to death;
Hot patetlah Delilah ni hnintangkuem a lung ka rek lah a dei pouh. Due han totouh a lung a ro sak.
17 That he told her all his heart, and said to her, There hath not come a razor upon my head; for I [have been] a Nazarite to God from my birth: if I be shaved, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any [other] man.
Hahoi teh, Samson ni a lungthin abuemlah hoi he a dei pouh. Kaie ka sam teh ka ngaw boihoeh. Anu e von thung ka o nah hoi, Cathut e Nazirite tami lah ka o. Atuvah ka lû ka ngaw pawiteh, ka thaonae buemlah he a kahma han. Ka tha awm mahoeh toe. Ayânaw patetlah doeh kaawm titoe telah atipouh.
18 And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he hath disclosed to me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought money in their hand.
A lungthin thung e abuemlahoi a dei toe tie hah Delilah ni a panue. Filistin bawinaw teh bout tho awh leih, a lungthin abuemlahoi a dei toe telah lawk a thui khai. Hahoi Filistin a lungkahanaw teh a tho awh teh, tangka a sin awh.
19 And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.
Delilah ni, Samson teh a phai dawk a i sak. Tami buet touh a kaw teh, a sam he a ngaw sak. Rektap hanlah a noe awh toe. A thaonae hai a kahma pouh toe.
20 And she said, the Philistines [are] upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he knew not that the LORD had departed from him.
Samson Filistinnaw ni na cusin toe atipouh. Hahoi a inae koehoi a thaw teh, ahmoun e patetlah ka tâco han bout ka hlout han doeh ati. Hatei, BAWIPA ni na ceitakhai toe tie panuek hoeh.
21 But the Philistines took him and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison-house.
Filistinnaw ni a man teh, a mitmu a cawngkhawi pouh awh. Gaza kho a ceikhai awh teh, Rahum bawtarui hoi khakpâkhi awh. Thongim thung vah cakang a phawm sak awh.
22 However the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaved.
Samson a lûngaw hnukkhu hoi a sam bout a sai.
23 Then the lords of the Philistines assembled to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice: for they said, Our god hath delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.
Filistinnaw ni amamae cathut dagon koevah, kalen e thuengnae sak hane hoi nawmnae sak hanelah a kamkhuengkhai awh. Mamae cathut ni taran Samson teh maimae kut dawk na poe awh toe telah ati awh.
24 And when the people saw him, they praised their god: for they said, Our god hath delivered into our hands our enemy, and the destroyer of our country; who slew many of us.
Tami moikapap ni a hmu navah, cathut a pholen awh. Maimae cathut ni taran teh kut dawk na poe awh toe. Ram karaphoekung, tami moi kathetkung teh maimae kut dawk na poe toe ati awh.
25 And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for Samson that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out of the prison-house; and he made them sport: and they set him between the pillars.
A lunghawikhai awh lahun nah, Samson hah paitun nahanelah, kaw awh ati awh. Hahoi Samson teh thongim thung hoi a tâcokhai awh teh, hmalah panuikhai hanlah, a ta awh. Khom hoi khom rahak a kangduesak awh.
26 And Samson said to the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars upon which the house standeth, that I may lean upon them.
Hahoi, Samson ni, kut dawk hoi ka hrawi e camo koe, hete im a kangduenae khom na tek sak haw, ka kamngawi haw nei atipouh.
27 Now the house was full of men and women: and all the lords of the Philistines [were] there: and [there were] upon the roof about three thousand men and women, that beheld while Samson made sport.
Hote im dawk napui tongpa yikkawi awh. Filistin bawinaw pueng hai hawvah king a kawi awh. Samson panuikhai hanlah, kakhennaw napui tongpa hoi 3, 000 tabang a pha awh.
28 And Samson called to the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.
Samson ni BAWIPA hah a kaw teh, Oe Bawipa Jehovah pahren lahoi na pahnim hanh lah a. Pahren lahoi atu vai touh dueng ma thaonae bout na poe haw. Oe Cathut, ka mit kahni touh e phu lah Filistinnaw koe na patho sak haw atipouh.
29 And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was supported, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left.
Hahoi, Samson ni bawkim lungui vah a dounnae khompui kahni touh hah, aranglae kut hoi buet touh, avoilah e kut hoi buet touh, ama cawt kamngawi laihoi a kuet.
30 And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with [all his] might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that [were] in it. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than [they] which he slew in his life.
Samson ni Filistinnaw hoi mek na dout sak lawih atipouh. Hahoi, a tha a kâla teh, bawinaw hoi a thung e kaawm taminaw pueng bawkim pui ni koung a ten awh. A hring nah a thei e hlak a duekhai e hah a paphnawn.
31 Then his brethren and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought [him] up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the burying-place of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years.
Hahoi teh, a hmaunawnghanaw hoi a imthungkhu abuemlah a tho awh teh, a takhangkhai awh. Zorah hoi Eshtaol rahak a na pa Manoah pakawpnae hmuen koe a pakawp awh. Hottelah kum 20 touh thung Isarelnaw hah a uk.
