Jij 14
1 Samson te desann Thimna. La li te wè yon fanm Thimna; youn nan fi Filisten yo.
Therfor Sampson yede doun in to Thannatha, and he siy there a womman of `the douytris of Filisteis;
2 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.”
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.
3 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.”
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.
4 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.
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.
5 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.
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.
6 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.
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.
7 Konsa, li te desann pale avèk fanm nan, epi li te fè kè l kontan.
And he yede doun, and spak to the womman, that pleside hise iyen.
8 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.
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.
9 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.
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.
10 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.
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.
11 Lè yo te wè li, yo te mennen trant zanmi parèy a yo pou yo ta kab la avèk li.
Therfor whanne the citeseyns of that place hadden seyn hym, thei yauen to hym thretti felowis, whiche schulen be with hym.
12 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.
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,
13 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.”
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.
14 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.
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.
15 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?”
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?
16 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?”
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?
17 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.
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.
18 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.”
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.
19 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.
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.
20 Men madanm a Samson an te vin bay a yon konpanyen li ki te bon zanmi li.
Forsothe his wijf took an hosebonde, oon of the frendis and keperis `of hir.
