Judges 15
1 But after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, Samson visited his wife with a young goat. He said, “I will go in to my wife’s room.” But her father wouldn’t allow him to go in.
А после неколико дана, о пшеничној жетви, дође Самсон да походи жену своју донесавши јој јаре, и рече: Идем к жени својој у ложницу. Али му отац њен не даде да уђе.
2 Her father said, “I most certainly thought that you utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Isn’t her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please, take her instead.”
Јер рече отац њен: Ја мишљах зацело да ти није по вољи, па је дадох другу твом; него млађа сестра њена није ли лепша од ње? Узми њу место оне.
3 Samson said to them, “This time I will be blameless in the case of the Philistines when I harm them.”
А Самсон им рече: Ја нећу бити крив Филистејима кад им учиним зло.
4 Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the middle between every two tails.
И отишавши Самсон ухвати триста лисица, и узе луча, и свеза по две у репове, и метну по један луч међу два репа.
5 When he had set the torches on fire, he let them go into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks and the standing grain, and also the olive groves.
Па запали лучеве, и пусти у летину филистејску, и попали летину пожњевену и непожњевену, и винограде и маслинике.
6 Then the Philistines said, “Who has done this?” They said, “Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife and given her to his companion.” The Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire.
Тада Филистеји рекоше: Ко је то учинио? И одговорише: Самсон зет Тамнаћанинов, јер му узе жену и даде је другу његовом. Тада дођоше Филистеји и спалише огњем њу и оца њеног.
7 Samson said to them, “If you behave like this, surely I will take revenge on you, and after that I will cease.”
А Самсон им рече: Ако сте и учинили тако, опет ћу вам се осветити, па ћу се онда оканити.
8 He struck them hip and thigh with a great slaughter; and he went down and lived in the cave in Etam’s rock.
И поломи их љуто ногама по бедрима: Потом отиде и настани се у пећини од стене Итама
9 Then the Philistines went up, encamped in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi.
Тада изиђоше Филистеји и стадоше у логор према Јуди, и раширише се до Лехије.
10 The men of Judah said, “Why have you come up against us?” They said, “We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to us.”
А људи од Јуде рекоше: Што сте изашли на нас? И одговорише: Изашли смо да свежемо Самсона и да му учинимо како је он нама учинио.
11 Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cave in Etam’s rock, and said to Samson, “Don’t you know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?” He said to them, “As they did to me, so I have done to them.”
Тада изиђе три хиљаде људи из Јуде к пећини у стени Итаму, и рекоше Самсону: Не знаш ли да Филистеји владају над нама? А он им рече: Како су они мени учинили тако ја учиних њима.
12 They said to him, “We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines.” Samson said to them, “Swear to me that you will not attack me yourselves.”
Они му рекоше: Дошли смо да те свежемо и предамо у руке Филистејима. А Самсон им рече: Закуните ми се да нећете ви уложити на ме.
13 They spoke to him, saying, “No, but we will bind you securely and deliver you into their hands; but surely we will not kill you.” They bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock.
Они му одговорише и рекоше: Нећемо; него ћемо те само свезати и предати у њихове руке, али те нећемо погубити. И свезаше га у два нова ужа и одведоше га из стене.
14 When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him. Then the LORD’s Spirit came mightily on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire; and his bands dropped from off his hands.
И кад он дође до Лехије, Филистеји га сретоше вичући од радости; а Дух Господњи сиђе на њ, и ужа на рукама његовим посташе као конци изгорели од ватре, и спадоше свезе с руку његових.
15 He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, put out his hand, took it, and struck a thousand men with it.
И он нађе чељуст магарећу још сирову, и пруживши руку своју узе је, и поби њом хиљаду људи.
16 Samson said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps; with the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men.”
Потом рече Самсон: Чељушћу магарећом једну гомилу, две гомиле, чељушћу магарећом побих хиљаду људи.
17 When he had finished speaking, he threw the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath Lehi.
А кад изрече, баци чељуст из руке своје, и назва оно место Рамат-Лехија.
18 He was very thirsty, and called on the LORD and said, “You have given this great deliverance by the hand of your servant; and now shall I die of thirst, and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?”
И беше жедан јако, те завапи ка Господу и рече: Ти си учинио руком слуге свог ово избављење велико; а сад хоћу ли умрети од жеђи, или ћу пасти у руке необрезанима?
19 But God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out of it. When he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived. Therefore its name was called En Hakkore, which is in Lehi, to this day.
Тада Бог расцепи стену у Лехији, и потече вода из ње, те се напи, и поврати му се дух и оживе. Зато се прозва онај извор Ен-Акоре, који је у Лехији до данашњег дана.
20 He judged Israel twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
И би судија Израиљу за времена филистејског двадесет година.
