Iye akati, “Kana munhu akandisunga zvakasimba namabote matsva asati amboshandiswa, ndichava munhu asina simba somumwewo munhu zvake.”
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Delila akĩoya mĩhĩndo mĩerũ na akĩmuoha nayo. Hĩndĩ ĩyo, andũ mehithĩte nyũmba thĩinĩ-rĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Samusoni, ũrĩ mũkore nĩ Afilisti!” Nowe agĩtuanga mĩhĩndo ĩyo kuuma moko-inĩ make o ta ũrĩa angĩtuanga uthi.

Njĩĩra kĩrĩa ũngĩohwo nakĩo.” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ũngĩogotha makundo maya mũgwanja ma njuĩrĩ ya mũtwe wakwa ndigi-inĩ, ũciigĩrĩre mũtambo-inĩ wa gũtuma taama na ũcirũmie na higĩ, niĩ nĩngwaga hinya nduĩke o ta mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rĩrĩa aakomete-rĩ, Delila akĩoya makundo mũgwanja ma njuĩrĩ cia mũtwe wake, agĩciogothania na ndigi,
Ipapo Dherira akati kuna Samusoni, “Kusvikira zvino, wanga uchingondiita benzi uye uchireva nhema kwandiri. Ndiudze kuti ungasungwa sei.” Akapindura akati, “Kana ukarukira mhotsi dzangu nomwe dzebvudzi rangu mumucheka wakarukwa uye ukadzirovera pasi nembambo, ini ndichava munhu asina simba somumwewo munhu zvake.” Saka paakanga avata, Dherira akatora mhotsi nomwe dzebvudzi romusoro wake, akadzirukira mumucheka unorukwa,
14 na agĩcirũmia na higĩ. Agĩcooka akĩmwĩta o rĩngĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Samusoni, ũrĩ mũkore nĩ Afilisti!” Nake Samusoni akĩarahũka toro, na akĩguucia higĩ ĩyo, o na mũtambo ũrĩa warĩ na ndigi.
akadzirovera pasi nembambo. Akadanidzira kwaari zvakare akati, “Samusoni, vaFiristia vasvika!” Akapepuka pahope dzake akavhomora mbambo nomucheka wakarukwa.
15 Agĩcooka akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wahota atĩa kuuga atĩ nĩũnyendete, rĩrĩa ũtangĩĩhoka? Rĩrĩ nĩ riita rĩa gatatũ ũnduĩte mũndũ mũkĩĩgu, na ndũrĩ wanjĩĩra hitho ya hinya ũcio waku mũnene.”
Ipapo akati kwaari, “Unoti ‘Ndinokuda’ sei iwe usingandiudzi zvakavanzika zvako? Aka kava ketatu uchingondiita benzi uye hauna kutongonditaurira chakavanzika chesimba rako guru.”
16 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa aamũgiaga na akamũtindĩrĩra mũthenya o mũthenya, akĩmũnogia o nginya hakuhĩ gũkua.
Pakupedzisira mushure mokunge atambudzwa namashoko ake, zuva nezuva, achimugombedzera, akaneta zvokusvika parufu.
17 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Samusoni akĩmwĩra maũndũ mothe. Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũtwe ũyũ wakwa ndũrĩ wenjwo nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, niĩ ndũire ndĩ Mũnaziri wamũrĩirwo Ngai kuuma rĩrĩa ndaciarirwo. Ingĩenjwo-rĩ, hinya wakwa no ũnjeherere, na njage hinya nduĩke o ta mũndũ ũngĩ o wothe.”
Saka akamuudza zvose. Akati, “Hapana chisvo chakatomboshandiswa kuveura musoro wangu, nokuti ndakaitwa muNaziri akatsaurirwa kuna Mwari kubva pakuberekwa kwangu. Kana musoro wangu ukaveurwa, simba rangu rinobva pandiri, uye ndinozova munhu asina simba, somumwewo munhu zvake.”
18 Na rĩrĩa Delila aamenyire atĩ nĩamwĩra maũndũ make mothe, agĩtũmanĩra aathani a Afilisti akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Cookai riita rĩngĩ rĩmwe, nĩ ũndũ nĩanjĩĩrĩte maũndũ mothe.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio aathani acio a Afilisti magĩcooka makuuĩte betha na moko.
Dherira paakaona kuti akanga amuudza zvose, akatuma shoko kuvatongi vavaFiristia achiti, “Dzokai, zvakare; andiudza zvose.” Saka vatongi vavaFiristia vakadzoka vaine sirivha mumaoko avo.
19 Nake Delila agĩtũma Samusoni akome ciero-inĩ ciake, agĩĩta mũndũ ũmwe amwenje makundo mothe mũgwanja ma njuĩrĩ yake, nao makĩambĩrĩria kũmũtooria. Naguo hinya wake ũkĩmuuma.
Akati amurarisa pamakumbo ake, akadana munhu kuti azoveura mhotsi nomwe dzebvudzi rake, nokudaro akatanga kumukunda. Uye simba rake rakabva paari.
20 Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Samusoni, ũrĩ mũkore nĩ Afilisti!” Nake agĩũkĩra kuuma toro, agĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, “Nĩnguuma nja o ta tene na ndĩĩribaribe, ndĩĩohore.” No rĩrĩ, ndaamenyete atĩ Jehova nĩamwehereire.
Ipapo akadana Samusoni akati, “Samusoni, vaFiristia vasvika!” Akapepuka pahope dzake akafunga akati, “Ndichabuda sezvandaiita kare uye ndichazvisunungura.” Asi akanga asingazivi kuti Jehovha akanga abva paari.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Afilisti makĩmũnyiita na hinya, makĩmũkũũra maitho na makĩmũikũrũkia Gaza. Makĩmuoha na mĩnyororo ya gĩcango, na makĩmũiga athĩage ngano arĩ kũu njeera.
Ipapo vaFiristia vakamubata vakatumbura meso ake vakamuendesa kundokuya mutorongo.
22 No rĩrĩ, njuĩrĩ ya mũtwe wake ĩkĩambĩrĩria gũkũra rĩngĩ, thuutha wa kwenjwo.
Asi bvudzi romusoro wake rakatanga kukurazve shure kwokumboveurwa.
23 Na rĩrĩ, aathani a Afilisti makĩũngana nĩguo marutĩre Dagoni ngai yao igongona inene na makũngũĩre, makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Ngai iitũ nĩĩneanĩte Samusoni thũ iitũ, moko-inĩ maitũ.”
Zvino vatongi vavaFiristia vakaungana kuti vabayire chibayiro chikuru kuna Dhagoni mwari wavo uye kuti vapemberere vachiti, “Mwari wedu aisa Samusoni, muvengi wedu, mumaoko edu.”
24 Rĩrĩa andũ maamuonire, makĩgooca ngai ĩyo yao makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Ngai iitũ nĩĩneanĩte thũ iitũ moko-inĩ maitũ, thũ ĩrĩa yathũkangirie bũrũri witũ na ĩkĩũraga andũ aitũ aingĩ.”
Vanhu vakati vamuona, vakarumbidza mwari wavo vachiti, “Mwari wedu aisa muvengi wedu mumaoko edu, iye akaparadza nyika yedu akawanza vakaurayiwa vedu.”
25 Na rĩrĩa ngoro ciao ciacanjamũkĩte, makĩanĩrĩra makiuga atĩrĩ, “Rehei Samusoni nĩguo oke atũkenie.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩruta Samusoni njeera, nake agĩĩka maũndũ ma mathekania. Rĩrĩa maamũrũgamirie gatagatĩ-inĩ ga itugĩ-rĩ,
Vari pakufara kukuru, vakadanidzira vachiti, “Budisai Samusoni kuti auye kuzotitandadza.” Saka vakadana Samusoni kuti abude mutorongo, uye akatamba pamberi pavo. Vakati vamumisa pakati pembiru,
26 Samusoni akĩĩra ndungata ĩrĩa yamũnyiitĩte guoko atĩrĩ, “Njiga harĩa ingĩhota kũhutia itugĩ iria inyiitĩrĩire hekarũ, nĩgeetha ndĩtiiranie nacio.”
Samusoni akati kumuranda akanga akabata ruoko rwake, “Ndiise pandinogona kubata mbiru dzinotsigira temberi, kuitira kuti ndisendamire padziri.”
27 Na rĩrĩ, hekarũ ĩyo yaiyũrĩte arũme na andũ-a-nja; na aathani othe a Afilisti maarĩ kuo, na nyũmba igũrũ kwarĩ na arũme na andũ-a-nja ta ngiri ithatũ meroreire Samusoni agĩĩka maũndũ ma kũmakenia.
Zvino temberi yakanga izere navarume navakadzi; vatongi vose vavaFiristia vakanga varimo uye padenga pakanga pane varume navakadzi vanenge zviuru zvitatu vakatarira Samusoni achitamba.
28 Samusoni akĩhooya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee Mwathani Jehova, ndirikana. Wee Ngai, ndagũthaitha ũnjĩkĩre hinya o ihinda rĩngĩ rĩmwe, na ũreke ndĩĩrĩhĩrie kũrĩ Afilisti na igũtha rĩmwe nĩ ũndũ wa maitho makwa meerĩ.”
Ipapo Samusoni akanyengetera kuna Jehovha akati, “Haiwa Ishe Jehovha, ndirangarirei. Imi Mwari, ndapota hangu, ndisimbisei henyu nguva ino bedzi, uye nditenderei kamwe chete kuti nditsive vaFiristia nokuda kwameso angu maviri.”
29 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Samusoni akĩnyiita itugĩ icio cierĩ cia gatagatĩ iria ciarũgamĩtie hekarũ ĩyo. Agĩĩtiirania nacio, kĩmwe agĩkĩnyiita na guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo na kĩrĩa kĩngĩ na guoko gwake kwa ũmotho,
Ipapo Samusoni akabata mbiru mbiri dzapakati dzakanga dzakatsigira temberi paakanga amire. Akadzisunda, ruoko rwake rworudyi rwuri pane imwe uye rworuboshwe rwuri pane imwe yacho.
30 Samusoni akiuga atĩrĩ, “Reke ngue hamwe na Afilisti!” Agĩcooka agĩcitindĩka na hinya wake wothe, nayo hekarũ ĩkĩgwĩra aathani acio hamwe na andũ othe arĩa maarĩ thĩinĩ wayo. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩũraga andũ aingĩ agĩkua gũkĩra arĩa ooragire arĩ muoyo.
