< Juges 15 >
1 Et quelque temps après, à l'époque de la moisson des orges, Samson visita sa femme, apportant un chevreau, et il dit: Je veux entrer chez ma femme dans la chambre; mais le père ne lui permit pas d'entrer.
And it was from days in [the] days of [the] harvest of wheat and he visited Samson wife his with a kid of goats and he said let me go into wife my the chamber towards and not he permitted him father her to go.
2 Et le père dit: Je pensais que tu la haïssais et je l'ai donnée à ton ami. Sa sœur cadette n'est-elle pas plus belle qu'elle? prends-la donc à sa place!
And he said father her certainly I thought that certainly you hated her and I gave her to companion your ¿ not [is] sister her young good more than her let her belong please to you in place of her.
3 Alors Samson leur dit: Cette fois si je fais du mal aux Philistins, les Philistins ne pourront en rejeter la faute sur moi.
And he said to them Samson I will be free this time from [the] Philistines for [am] about to do I with them harm.
4 Et Samson partit, et ayant attrapé trois cents renards, il se procura des torches; et croisant une queue avec l'autre queue, il fixa une torche entre deux queues, au milieu.
And he went Samson and he captured three hundred foxes and he took torches and he turned tail to tail and he put a torch one between [the] two the tails in the middle.
5 Puis ayant allumé les torches, il les lâcha dans les moissons des Philistins, et ainsi embrasa et les tas de gerbes et les blés qui étaient sur pied, et les olivaies.
And he kindled fire on the torches and he sent [them] among [the] standing grain of [the] Philistines and it burned up from [the] heap of sheaves and unto [the] standing grain and unto [the] vineyard of olive tree[s].
6 Alors les Philistins dirent: Qui a fait cela? Et on dit: C'est Samson, gendre du Thimnite, parce que celui-ci lui a ôté sa femme et l'a donnée à son ami. Alors les Philistins arrivèrent, ils la brûlèrent elle et son père dans les flammes.
And they said [the] Philistines who? did he do this [thing] and they said Samson [the] son-in-law of the Timnite for he has taken wife his and he has given her to companion his and they went up [the] Philistines and they burned her and father her with fire.
7 Et Samson leur dit: Est-ce ainsi que vous faites?… Oui, quand j'aurai tiré vengeance de vous, alors je cesserai.
And he said to them Samson if you will do! like this that except I have avenged myself on you and after I will cease.
8 Et il leur frappa jambes et reins d'un grand coup. Puis il descendit, et prit pour sa demeure la caverne du rocher d'Eitam.
And he struck them leg with thigh a defeat great and he went down and he dwelt in [the] cleft of [the] rock of Etam.
9 Alors les Philistins se mirent en campagne et vinrent camper en Juda, et ils se déployèrent dans Léchi.
And they went up [the] Philistines and they encamped in Judah and they were spread out at Lehi.
10 Et les hommes de Juda dirent: Pourquoi marchez-vous contre nous?
And they said [the] man of Judah why? have you come up on us and they said to bind Samson we have come up to do to him just as he did to us.
11 Et ils dirent: C'est pour enchaîner Samson que nous sommes venus, pour lui rendre ce qu'il nous a fait. Là-dessus trois mille hommes de Juda descendirent à la caverne du rocher d'Eitam, et ils dirent à Samson: Ne savais-tu pas que les Philistins sont nos dominateurs? et qu'est-ce que tu nous as fait là? Et il leur dit: Je les ai traités comme ils m'ont traité.
And they went down three thousand man from Judah to [the] cleft of [the] rock of Etam and they said to Samson ¿ not do you know that [are] ruling over us [the] Philistines and what? this have you done to us and he said to them just as they did to me so I have done to them.
12 Et ils lui dirent: C'est pour te garrotter que nous venons, pour te livrer aux mains des Philistins. Et Samson leur dit: Jurez-moi que vous ne me tuerez pas!
And they said to him to bind you we have come down to give you in [the] hand of [the] Philistines and he said to them Samson swear to me lest you should fall! on me you.
13 Et ils lui dirent: Non; nous ne voulons que te garrotter et te remettre entre leurs mains; quant à te faire mourir, nous ne le ferons point. Et ils le lièrent de deux cordes neuves, et ils l'emmenèrent loin du rocher.
And they said to him saying In-deed certainly we will bind you and we will give you in hand their and certainly not we will kill you and they bound him with two ropes new and they brought up him from the rock.
14 Il arriva à Léchi et les Philistins l'accueillirent par des huées; alors l'esprit de l'Éternel s'empara de lui, et les cordes qu'il avait aux bras ne furent plus que comme des brins de fil qui brûlent dans le feu, et ses liens coulèrent de ses poignets.
He [was] coming to Lehi (and [the] Philistines *L(abh)*) they shouted to meet him and it rushed on him [the] spirit of Yahweh and they became the ropes which [were] on arms his like flax which people have burned with fire and they dropped off bonds his from on hands his.
15 Et il trouva une mâchoire d'âne fraîche, et il étendit la main et la saisit, et en frappa mille hommes.
And he found a jawbone of a donkey fresh and he stretched out hand his and he took it and he struck down with it a thousand man.
16 Et Samson dit: Avec une mâchoire d'âne, une, deux troupes! Avec une mâchoire d'âne j'ai défait mille hommes!
And he said Samson with [the] jawbone of the donkey a heap two heaps with [the] jawbone of the donkey I struck down a thousand man.
17 Et quand il eut achevé son discours, il jeta la mâchoire loin de sa main, et il nomma ce lieu Ramath-Léchi (jet de la mâchoire).
And it was when finished he to speak and he threw the jawbone from hand his and he called the place that Ramath Lehi.
18 Et il était fort altéré; alors il invoqua l'Éternel et dit: Par la main de ton serviteur tu as procuré cette grande victoire, et maintenant devrais-je mourir de soif et tomber entre les mains des incirconcis!
And he was thirsty very and he called out to Yahweh and he said you you have given by [the] hand of servant your the victory great this and now [must] I die with thirst and I fall in [the] hand of the uncircumcised [men]?
19 Alors Dieu entrouvrit une cavité qui était à Léchi, et il en jaillit de l'eau et il but, et ses esprits revinrent, et il fut ranimé. C'est pourquoi on la nomma Source de l'invocateur, et elle existe encore aujourd'hui à Léchi.
And he split open God the deep hollow which [is] at Lehi and they came out from it waters and he drank and it returned spirit his and he lived there-fore - he called name its En Hakkore which [is] at Lehi until the day this.
20 Et il jugea Israël à l'époque des Philistins pendant vingt ans.
And he judged Israel in [the] days of [the] Philistines twenty year[s].
