Judges 14
1 And Samson goeth down to Timnath, and seeth a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines,
Samson te desann Thimna. La li te wè yon fanm Thimna; youn nan fi Filisten yo.
2 and cometh up and declareth to his father, and to his mother, and saith, 'A woman I have seen in Timnath, of the daughters of the Philistines; and now, take her for me for a wife.'
Konsa, li te retounen pou te di papa l avèk manman l: “Mwen te wè yon fanm Thimna, youn nan fi Filisten yo. Alò pou sa, al chache li pou mwen kòm madanm.”
3 And his father saith to him — also his mother, 'Is there not among the daughters of thy brethren, and among all my people, a woman, that thou art going to take a woman from the uncircumcised Philistines?' and Samson saith unto his father, 'Take her for me, for she is right in mine eyes.'
Papa l avèk manman l te di li: “Èske pa gen okenn fanm pami fi a fanmi ou yo, oswa pami tout pèp nou an, pou ou alepran yon madanm pami Filisten ensikonsi sa yo?” Samson te di a papa l: “Ale pran li pou mwen; paske selon mwen menm, li byen bèl.”
4 And his father and his mother have not known that from Jehovah it [is], that a meeting he is seeking of the Philistines; and at that time the Philistines are ruling over Israel.
Alò, papa li avèk manman li pa t konnen ke sa se te yon bagay a SENYÈ a; paske Li t ap chache yon okazyon kont Filisten yo. Alò, nan tan sa a, Filisten yo t ap domine sou Israël.
5 And Samson goeth down — also his father and his mother, to Timnath, and they come unto the vineyards of Timnath, and lo, a lion's whelp roareth at meeting him,
Epi Samson te desann Thimna avèk papa l avèk manman l e yo te avanse rive jis nan chan rezen a Thimna yo; epi vwala, yon jenn lyon tou ap gwonde te vin lonje sou li.
6 and the Spirit of Jehovah prospereth over him, and he rendeth it as the rending of a kid, and there is nothing in his hand, and he hath not declared to his father and to his mother that which he hath done.
Lespri SENYÈ a te vin monte byen fò sou li e li te chire li tankou yon moun ta chire yon jenn kabrit, malgre anyen pa t nan men li. Men li pa t pale ni papa l ni manman l sa li te fè a.
7 And he goeth down and speaketh to the woman, and she is right in the eyes of Samson;
Konsa, li te desann pale avèk fanm nan, epi li te fè kè l kontan.
8 and he turneth back after [some] days to take her, and turneth aside to see the carcase of the lion, and lo, a company of bees [are] in the body of the lion — and honey.
Lè l te retounen pita pou pran l, li te vire akote pou gade kadav lyon an. Epi vwala, yon desen myèl te nan kò lyon an.
9 And he taketh it down on to his hands, and goeth on, going and eating; and he goeth unto his father, and unto his mother, and giveth to them, and they eat, and he hath not declared to them that from the body of the lion he took down the honey.
Konsa, li te fè yon grate lasi ak siwo myèl nan men li e li te fè wout li pandan li t ap manje. Lè li te vin kote papa l avèk manman l, li te bay yo, e yo te manje. Men li pa t di yo ke li te grate siwo a sòti nan kò lyon an.
10 And his father goeth down unto the woman, and Samson maketh there a banquet, for so the young men do;
Alò, papa li te desann vè fanm nan; epi Samson te fè yon fèt la, paske jennonm yo te konn fè sa kòm koutim pa yo.
11 and it cometh to pass when they see him, that they take thirty companions, and they are with him.
Lè yo te wè li, yo te mennen trant zanmi parèy a yo pou yo ta kab la avèk li.
12 And Samson saith to them, 'Let me, I pray you, put forth to you a riddle; if ye certainly declare it to me [in] the seven days of the banquet, and have found [it] out, then I have given to you thirty linen shirts, and thirty changes of garments;
Samson te di yo: “Kite m bannou yon kont pou nou kab devine l. Si nou kab vrèman reponn pandan sèt jou ki ekoule nan fèt la pou twouve bout li, alò, mwen va bannou trant gwo manto fèt an len avèk trant echanj vètman.
13 and if ye are not able to declare [it] to me, then ye have given to me thirty linen shirts, and thirty changes of garments.' And they say to him, 'Put forth thy riddle, and we hear it!'
Men si nou pa kab reponn mwen, alò, nou va ban mwen trant echanj vètman.” Yo te di li: “Bannou kont lan pou nou kab koute li.”
14 And he saith to them: 'Out of the eater came forth meat, And out of the strong came forth sweetness;' and they were not able to declare the riddle [in] three days.
Konsa, li te di yo: “Sòti nan sila ki konn manje, te parèt yon bagay pou manje. Sòti nan sila ki gen fòs, te parèt yon bagay ki dous.” Men nan twa jou, yo pa t kab ba li repons lan.
15 And it cometh to pass, on the seventh day, that they say to Samson's wife, 'Entice thy husband, that he declare to us the riddle, lest we burn thee and the house of thy father with fire; to possess us have ye called for us? is it not?'
Alò, li te vin rive ke nan katriyèm jou a, ke yo te di a madanm Samson an: “Mennen mari ou pou l kab bannou repons kont lan, oswa nou va brile ou menm avèk kay papa ou avèk dife. Èske se pou fè nou vin pòv ke ou te envite nou? Se pa sa w ap fè la a?”
16 And Samson's wife weepeth for it, and saith, 'Thou hast only hated me, and hast not loved me; the riddle thou hast put forth to the sons of my people — and to me thou hast not declared it;' and he saith to her, 'Lo, to my father and to my mother I have not declared [it] — and to thee I declare [it]!'
Madanm a Samson te kriye devan li e te di: “Se sèlman ke ou rayi mwen e ou pa renmen m. Ou te prezante yon kont a fis pèp mwen yo e ou pa t pale m de sa.” Li te di li: “Gade byen, mwen pa t pale l ni a manman m, ni a papa m. Èske se a ou menm pou m ta pale li?”
17 And she weepeth for it the seven days [in] which their banquet hath been, and it cometh to pass on the seventh day that he declareth [it] to her, for she hath distressed him; and she declareth the riddle to the sons of her people.
Men li te kriye devan li pandan sèt jou pandan fèt yo a t ap pase. Epi nan setyèm jou a, li te pale li kont lan, akoz li menm (fanm nan) te peze li rèd. Alò konsa, li al pale istwa a fis pèp li yo.
18 And the men of the city say to him on the seventh day, before the sun goeth in: — 'What [is] sweeter than honey? And what stronger than a lion?' And he saith to them: 'Unless ye had ploughed with my heifer, Ye had not found out my riddle.'
Konsa, mesye lavil yo te di a li nan setyèm jou a avan solèy la te kouche: “Se kisa ki pi dous ke siwo myèl? Epi kisa ki pi fò pase yon lyon?” Li te reponn yo: “Si nou pa t raboure avèk gazèl bèf mwen, nou pa t ap dekouvri kont mwen an.”
19 And the Spirit of Jehovah prospereth over him, and he goeth down to Ashkelon, and smiteth of them thirty men, and taketh their armour, and giveth the changes to those declaring the riddle; and his anger burneth, and he goeth up to the house of his father;
Lespri SENYÈ a te vini sou li byen fò, e li te desann Askalon pou te touye trant nan Filisten yo. Li te pran piyaj pa yo e te bay echanj rad yo a sila ki te reponn kont lan. Epi kòlè li te monte, e li te monte vè lakay papa l.
20 and Samson's wife becometh his companion's, who [is] his friend.
Men madanm a Samson an te vin bay a yon konpanyen li ki te bon zanmi li.
