Judges 14
1 Therfor Sampson yede doun in to Thannatha, and he siy there a womman of `the douytris of Filisteis;
Da bi a na Samson wɔ Timna no, ohuu Filistini ababaa bi.
2 and he stiede, and telde to his fadir and `to his modir, and seide, Y siy a womman in Thannatha of the `douytris of Filistees, and Y biseche, that ye take hir a wijf to me.
Ɔsan kɔɔ fie no, ɔka kyerɛɛ nʼagya ne ne na se, “Mahu Filistini ababaa bi wɔ Timna a mepɛ sɛ meware no.”
3 To whom his fadir and modir seiden, Whether no womman is among the douytris of thi britheren and in al my puple, for thou wolt take a wijf of Filisteis, that ben vncircumcidid? And Sampson seide to his fadir, Take thou this wijf to me, for sche pleside myn iyen.
Nʼagya ne ne na ampene so kaa no anibere so se, “Enti yɛn abusua yi mu anaa Israelfo yi mu, ɔbea baako mpo nni mu a wutumi ware no? Adɛn na ɛsɛ sɛ wokɔ Filistifo abosonsomfo mu kɔhwehwɛ ɔyere?” Nanso Samson ka kyerɛɛ nʼagya se, “Kɔyɛ ne ho ade ma me. Ɔno ara na mepɛ.”
4 Forsothe his fadir and modir wisten not, that the thing was don of the Lord; and that he souyte occasiouns ayens Filisteis; for in that tyme Filisteis weren lordis of Israel.
Nʼagya ne ne na anhu sɛ Awurade na ɔreyɛ nʼadwuma, rehwehwɛ akwannya bi a ɔbɛfa so atia Filistifo a saa bere no na wodi Israelfo so.
5 Therfor Sampson yede doun with his fadir and modir in to Thannatha; and whanne thei hadden come to the vyneris of the citee, a fers and rorynge `whelp of a lioun apperide, and ran to Sampson.
Samson ne nʼawofo rekɔ Timna no, gyata ba bi tow hyɛɛ Samson so wɔ beae bi a ɛbɛn Timna bobe nturo.
6 Forsothe the spirit of the Lord felde in to Sampson, and he to-rente the lioun, as if he `to-rendide a kide `in to gobetis, and outerli he hadde no thing in the hond; and he nolde schewe this to the fadir and modir.
Amono mu hɔ ara, Awurade Honhom baa ne so wɔ ahoɔden mu, na ɔde ne nsa hunu waee gyata no abogye. Ɔwaee te sɛ nea ɔrewae abirekyi ba bi abogye. Nanso wanka nea ɔyɛe yi ankyerɛ nʼawofo.
7 And he yede doun, and spak to the womman, that pleside hise iyen.
Samson duu Timna no, ɔne ɔbea no kasae, na nʼani gyee ne ho.
8 And aftir summe daies he turnede ayen to take hir `in to matrimonye; and he `bowide awey to se the `careyn of the lioun; and lo! a gaderyng of bees was in the `mouth of the lioun, and `a coomb of hony.
Akyiri no a ɔresan akɔ Timna akohyia ayeforo no, ɔman kɔhwɛɛ gyata no funu no. Ohuu sɛ nnowa kuw akɔyɛ ɛwo wɔ mu.
9 And whanne he hadde take it in hondis, he eet in the weie; and he cam to his fadir and modir, and yaf part `to hem, and thei eeten; netheles he nolde schewe to hem, that he hadde take hony of the `mouth of the lioun.
Okotii ɛwo no bi dii wɔ kwan so. Ɔmaa nʼawofo no bi ma wodii. Nanso wanka ankyerɛ wɔn sɛ onyaa ɛwo no wɔ gyata funu no mu.
10 And so his fadir yede doun to the womman, and made a feeste to his sone Sampson; for yonge men weren wont to do so.
Afei, bere a nʼagya reyɛ ahoboa ama awaregye no, Samson too pon wɔ Timna, sɛnea amanne kyerɛ saa bere no.
11 Therfor whanne the citeseyns of that place hadden seyn hym, thei yauen to hym thretti felowis, whiche schulen be with hym.
Wɔtoo nsa frɛɛ mmerante aduasa a wofi kurow no mu sɛ wɔmmɛka ne ho.
12 To whiche Sampson spak, Y schal putte forth to you a probleme, `that is, a douyteful word and priuy, and if ye `asoilen it to me with ynne seuen daies of the feeste, Y schal yyue to you thretti lynnun clothis, and cootis `of the same noumbre; sotheli if ye moun not soyle,
Samson ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Momma menka aborɔme bi nkyerɛ mo. Sɛ nnanson aponto yi mu, mutumi yi ano a, mɛma mo sirikyitam ntade aduasa ne ntade ahorow bi nso aduasa.
13 ye schulen yyue to me thretti lynnun clothis, and cootis `of the same noumbre. Whiche answeriden to hym, Sette forth the probleme, that we here it.
Sɛ moantumi anyi ano nso a, mo nso mobɛma me sirikyitam ntade aduasa ne ntade ahorow bi nso aduasa.” Wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ka aborɔme no ma yentie.”
14 And he seide to hem, Mete yede out of the etere, and swetnesse yede out of the stronge. And bi thre daies thei myyten not assoile the `proposicioun, that is, the resoun set forth.
Ɔkaa no se, “Nea odidi mu na wonya biribi a wodi; ɔhoɔdenfo mu na ade dɛɛdɛ fi ba.” Nnansa akyi no, na wontumi nyii ano.
15 And whanne the seuenthe dai cam, thei seiden to `the wijf of Sampson, Glose thin hosebonde, and counseile hym, that he schewe to thee what the probleme signyfieth. That if thou nylt do, we schulen brenne thee and `the hous of thi fadir. Whether herfor ye clepiden vs to weddyngis, that ye schulden robbe vs?
Ne nnaanan so no, wɔkɔka kyerɛɛ Samson yere se, “Gye aborɔme no mmuae fi wo kunu hɔ ma yɛn, anyɛ saa a, yɛbɛhyew wo ne wʼagya fi ama wɔawu. Motoo nsa frɛɛ yɛn wɔ ha sɛ morebesisi yɛn ana?”
16 And sche schedde teerys at Sampson, and pleynede, and seide, Thou hatist me, and louest not, therfor thou nylt expowne to me the probleme, which thou settidist forth to the sones of my puple. And he answeride, Y nolde seie to my fadir and modir, and schal Y mow schewe to thee?
Enti Samson yere de su baa ne nkyɛn bɛkae se, “Wonnɔ me. Wotan me! Woaka aborɔme bi akyerɛ me nkurɔfo, nanso wonkyerɛɛ me ase.” Samson buaa ne yere no se, “Saa ara na mʼagya ne me na nso menkyerɛɛ wɔn ase ɛ. Na adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ meka kyerɛ wo?”
17 Therfor bi seuene dayes of the feest sche wepte at hym; at the laste `he expownede in the seuenthe dai, whanne sche was diseseful to hym. And anoon sche telde to hir citeseyns.
Enti osu guu ne so bere biara a ɔne no wɔ hɔ. Ɔkɔɔ so saa ara nna a aka na aponto no aba nʼawie nyinaa. Nnanson so no, esiane haw a ɔhaw no nti, ɔkyerɛɛ no ase. Ɔno nso kaa aborɔme nkyerɛase no kyerɛɛ mmerante no.
18 And thei seiden to hym in the seuenthe dai bifor the goyng doun of the sunne, What is swettere than hony, and what is strengere than a lioun? And he seide to hem, If ye hadden not erid in my cow calf, `that is, my wijf, ye hadden not founde my proposicioun.
Na nnanson so, ansa na owia rebɛtɔ no, kurow no mu mmarima baa Samson nkyɛn bɛkyerɛɛ no ase se, “Dɛn na ɛyɛ dɛ sen ɛwo? Dɛn na ɛwɔ ahoɔden sen gyata?” Samson buaa wɔn se, “Sɛ mo ne ɔfatwafo no antu agyina a, anka morennya aborɔme no nkyerɛase.”
19 Therfor the spirit of the Lord felde in to hym; and he yede doun to Ascalon, and killyde there thretti men, whose clothis he took awey, and he yaf to hem that soiliden the probleme; and he was ful wrooth, and stiede in to `the hows of his fadir.
Afei, Awurade Honhom de ahoɔden kɛse bi baa ne so. Ɔkɔɔ Askelon kurow mu. Okunkum mmarima aduasa faa wɔn agyapade nyinaa. Ɔde wɔn ntade maa mmarima a woyii aborɔme no ano no. Na Samson bo annwo nea ɛbae no ho yiye nti ɔkɔɔ ne fi na ɔne nʼawofo kɔtenae.
20 Forsothe his wijf took an hosebonde, oon of the frendis and keperis `of hir.
Enti wɔde ne yere no maa ɔbarima a na odi Samson nan ase wɔ wɔn ayeforohyia mu no aware.
