Judges 16
1 Samson went to Gaza, and saw there a prostitute, and went in to her.
I HO aku la o Samesona i Gaza, a ike iho la ilaila i kekahi wahine hookamakama, a komo aku la io na la.
2 The Gazites were told, “Samson is here!” They surrounded him and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, “Wait until morning light; then we will kill him.”
Haiia'ku la i ko Gaza, Ua hiki mai nei o Samesona. Hoopuni iho la lakou ia wahi, a hoohalua ia ia, ia po a ao, ma ka puka o ke kulanakauhale, a moe malie no ia po a pau, i iho la, A kakahiaka, i ke ao ana ae, make no oia ia kakou.
3 Samson lay until midnight, then arose at midnight and took hold of the doors of the gate of the city, with the two posts, and plucked them up, bar and all, and put them on his shoulders and carried them up to the top of the mountain that is before Hebron.
Moe iho la o Samesona, a iwaena konu o ka po; alaila, ala mai la ia iwaena konu o ka po, a lawe iho la i na pani o ke kulanakauhale, a me na lapauwila elua, unuhi ae la ia laua me ka hoaka o ka puka, kau iho la maluna o kona mau poohiwi, a lawe aku la iluna pono o kahi puu, ma ke alo o Heberona.
4 It came to pass afterward that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.
A mahope iho, aloha ae la ia i kekahi wahine ma ke kahawai o Soreka, o Delila kona inoa.
5 The lords of the Philistines came up to her and said to her, “Entice him, and see in which his great strength lies, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and we will each give you eleven hundred pieces of silver.”
Pii ae la na'lii o Pilisetia io na la, i ae la ia ia, E hoowalewale oe ia ia, a e nana hoi i kahi o kona ikaika nui, a me ka mea e lanakila'i makou maluna ona, i nakinaki makou ia ia, a pilikia ia; alaila, e uku aku makou ia oe, i hookahi tausani apana kala, a me ka haneri keu.
6 Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell me where your great strength lies, and what you might be bound to afflict you.”
I aku la o Delila ia Samesona, Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe ia'u i kou mea e ikaika nui ai, a me ka mea e paa ai oe, i pilikia ai oe.
7 Samson said to her, “If they bind me with seven green cords that were never dried, then shall I become weak, and be as another man.”
I mai la o Samesona ia ia, Ina nakinaki mai lakou ia'u i na kaula maka ehiku, i hoomaloo ole ia, alaila, e nawaliwali au, a like auanei me kekahi kanaka.
8 Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green cords which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.
Alaila, lawe mai na'lii o ko Pilisetia ia ia i ehiku kaula maka, i hoomaloo ole ia, a me ia no ia i nakinaki ai ia ia.
9 Now she had an ambush waiting in the inner room. She said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” He broke the cords as a flax thread is broken when it touches the fire. So his strength was not known.
E moe malu ana no na kanaka maloko o ia keena me ia. I mai la kela, Maluna on auanei ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. Moku ae la ia ia na kaula, e like me ka moku ana o ke kaula oka, i kona wa e honi ai i ke ahi, aole hoi i loaa kahi o kona ikaika.
10 Delilah said to Samson, “Behold, you have mocked me, and told me lies. Now please tell me how you might be bound.”
I mai la o Delila ia Samesona, Aia hoi, ua hoowahawaha mai oe ia'u, a ua hoopunipuni mai ia'u. Nolaila, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe ia'u i kou mea e paa ai.
11 He said to her, “If they only bind me with new ropes with which no work has been done, then shall I become weak, and be as another man.”
I aku la keia ia ia, Ina nakinaki paa loa mai lakou ia'u i na kaula hou, aole i hoohanaia, alaila e nawaliwali au, a e like auanei me kekahi kanaka.
12 So Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them, then said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” The ambush was waiting in the inner room. He broke them off his arms like a thread.
Kii ae la o Delila i na kaula hou, a nakinaki iho la ia ia me ia, i ae la, Maluna ou auanei o ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. E moe malu ana no na kanaka maloko o ia keena. Moku ae la ia ia na kaula, mai kona lima aku, me he lopi la.
13 Delilah said to Samson, “Until now, you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell me with what you might be bound.” He said to her, “If you weave the seven locks of my head with the fabric on the loom.”
I mai o Delila ia Samesona, Ua hoowahawaha mai oe ia'u, a hiki mai i keia manawa, a ua hoopunipuni ia'u. E hai mai oe ia'u i kou mea e paa ai. I aku la keia ia ia, Ina e ulana pu oe i na will ehiku o ko'u poo, me ka lole.
14 She fastened it with the pin, and said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” He awakened out of his sleep, and plucked away the pin of the beam and the fabric.
Alaila, makia iho la ia i ke kui, i ae la, Maluna ou auanei ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. Ala ae la ia mai kona hiamoe ana, a hele aku la me ke kui o ka mea nana i ulana, a me ka lole pu.
15 She said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies.”
I mai la oia ia ia, Pehea la oe e olelo ai, Ua aloha au ia oe? Aole hoi kou naau me au. Ekolu ou hoowahawaha ana mai ia'u, aole hoi i hai mai ia'u i kahi o kou ikaika nui.
16 When she pressed him daily with her words and urged him, his soul was troubled to death.
I kona koi ana ia ia i na la a pau, i kana olelo ana, a hookaumaha loa ia ia, a pilikia kona manao, aneane make;
17 He told her all his heart and said to her, “No razor has ever come on my head; for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaved, then my strength will go from me and I will become weak, and be like any other man.”
Alaila, hai aku la oia ia ia i kona naau a pau, i aku la ia ia, Aole i kau mai ka pahikahi maluna o ko'u poo; no ka mea, ua laa au i ke Akua, mai ka opu mai o ko'u makuwahine. Ina e kahiia au, alaila, lilo aku hoi ko'u ikaika mai o'u aku nei, a nawaliwali auanei au e like me kekahi kanaka.
18 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 has told me all his heart.” Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought the money in their hand.
A ike iho la o Delila, ua hai mai kela ia ia i kona naau a pau, alaila kii aku la ia, a hoakoakoa mai la i na'lii o ko Pilisetia, i ae la, E pii hou mai oukou, no ka mea, ua hai mai oia ia'u i kona naau a pau. Alaila, pii ae la na'lii o ko Pilisetia io na la, a lawe ae la i ke kala, ma ko lakou lima.
19 She made him sleep on her knees; and she called for a man and shaved off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.
Hoomoe iho la oia ia ia ma kona uha; a hea aku la i ke kanaka a haawi ia ia e kahi i na wili ehiku o kona poo a hemo; a hoomaka ia i ka hoopilikia ana ia ia, a lilo aku la kona ikaika, mai ona aku la.
20 She said, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” He awoke out of his sleep, and said, “I will go out as at other times, and shake myself free.” But he didn’t know that the LORD had departed from him.
I mai la ia, Maluna ou auanei ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. Ala ae la ia, mai kona hiamoe ana, i mai la, E hele au iwaho e like me na wa mamua, e hooluliluli. Aole ia i ike, ua haalele o Iehova ia ia.
21 The Philistines laid hold on him and put out his eyes; and they brought him down to Gaza and bound him with fetters of bronze; and he ground at the mill in the prison.
Hoopaa iho la ko Pilisetia ia ia, poalo aku la i kona mau maka, a lawe ae la ia ia i Gaza, a hoopaa iho la ia ia i na kupee keleawe; a wili ae la ia iloko o ka halepaahao.
22 However, the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaved.
Hoomaka iho la ka lauoho o kona poo i ka ulu hou, e like me ia i ka wa i kahiia'i.
23 The lords of the Philistines gathered together to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice; for they said, “Our god has delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.”
Alaila hoakoakoa mai la na'lii o ko Pilisetia e kaumaha aku i mohai nui no Dagona, ko lakou akua, a e olioli; no ka mea, olelo mai la lakou, Ua haawi mai ko kakou akua ia Samesona o ko kakou enemi, iloko o ko kakou lima.
24 When the people saw him, they praised their god; for they said, “Our god has delivered our enemy and the destroyer of our country, who has slain many of us, into our hand.”
A ike aku la na kanaka ia ia, hoomana aku la lakou i ko lakou akua; no ka mea, olelo mai la lakou, Ua haawi mai ko kakou akua iloko o ko kakou lima, i ko kakou enemi, i ka mea i anai ai i ko kakou aina, a luku nui mai ia kakou.
25 When their hearts were merry, they said, “Call for Samson, that he may entertain us.” They called for Samson out of the prison; and he performed before them. They set him between the pillars;
A i ka wa lealea ai ko lakou naau, i ae la lakou, E kii aku ia Samesona, i hula mai ia no kakou. Kii aku la lakou ia Samesona ma ka halepaahao, a hula mai la ia imua o lakou. A hooku iho la lakou ia ia iwaena o na kia.
26 and Samson said to the boy who held him by the hand, “Allow me to feel the pillars on which the house rests, that I may lean on them.”
I ae la o Samesona i ke keiki e paa ana i kona lima, E hoomaha mai oe ia'u i hana aku au i na kia e paa ai ka hale, i hilinai hoi au ma ia mau mea.
27 Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were on the roof about three thousand men and women, who saw while Samson performed.
Ua piha ka hale i na kanaka, a me na wahine. Malaila no na'lii a pau o ko Pilisetia. Ekolu tausani kanaka a me na wahine maluna o ka hale i nana mai i ko Samesona hula ana.
28 Samson called to the LORD, and said, “Lord GOD, remember me, please, and strengthen me, please, only this once, God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.”
Hea aku la o Samesona ia Iehova, i aku la, E ka Haku, e Iehova e, e hoomanao mai oe ia'u; ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hooikaika mai oe ia'u, e ke Akua e, i keia manawa hookahi no, i uku koke ia mai au e ko Pilisetia, no ko'u mau maka elua.
29 Samson took hold of the two middle pillars on which the house rested and leaned on them, the one with his right hand and the other with his left.
Lalau iho la o Samesona ma na kia waenakonu elua, a oia hoi na mea e paa ai ka hale. Hilinai iho la oia ma ia mau mea, o ka lima akau ma kekahi, a o ka lima hema ma kekahi.
30 Samson said, “Let me die with the Philistines!” He bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell on the lords, and on all the people who were in it. So the dead that he killed at his death were more than those who he killed in his life.
I iho la o Samesona, E make pu au me ko Pilisetia. Kulou iho la me ka ikaika nui, a hina iho la ka hale maluna o na'lii, a maluna o na kanaka a pau maloko. Ua nui ka poe make, ana i luku ai i kona make ana, he hapa ka poe ana i luku ai i kona wa i ola'i.
31 Then his brothers 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 burial site of Manoah his father. He judged Israel twenty years.
Iho aku la kona poe hoahanau, a me ko ka hale o kona makuakane, lalau iho la ia ia, a lawe ae la, a kanu iho la mawaena o Zora, a me Esetaola, ma ka ilina o Manoa, o kona makuakane. He iwakalua makahiki ana i hooponopono ai i ka Iseraela.
