1 Wata rana Samson ya tafi Gaza, inda ya ga wata karuwa. Ya shiga wurinta ya kwana.
Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in to her.
2 Aka gaya wa mutanen Gaza, “Ai, Samson yana a nan!” Saboda haka suka zo suka kewaye wurin suka yi kwanto dukan dare a bakin ƙofar birni. A daren nan ba su motsa nan da can ba, suna cewa, “Gari yana wayewa za mu kashe shi.”
And it was told the Gazites, saying, Samson is come here. And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning, when it is day, we shall kill him.
3 Amma Samson ya yi kwanciyarsa har tsakiyar dare. Sa’an nan ya tashi ya kama ƙofofin birnin, tare da madogarai biyunsu, ya tumɓuke, ya aza su a kafaɗarsa, ya kai su kan dutsen da yake a fuskantar Hebron.
And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put them on his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron.
4 Bayan ɗan lokaci, sai ya shiga ƙaunar wata mace, mai suna Delila a Kwarin Sorek.
And it came to pass afterward, that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.
5 Sai shugabannin Filistiyawa suka tafi wurinta suka ce, “Ki yi ƙoƙari ki ga ko za ki rarrashe shi yă nuna miki asirin ƙarfinsa da yadda za mu iya shan ƙarfinsa don mu ɗaura shi mu yi nasara a kansa. Kowannenmu zai ba ki shekel dubu ɗari ɗaya na azurfa.”
And the lords of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, Entice him, and see wherein his great strength lies, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and we will give you every one of us eleven hundred pieces of silver.
6 Saboda haka Delila ta ce wa Samson, “Ka faɗa miki asirin ƙarfinka da yadda za a ɗaura ka a yi nasara a kanka.”
And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray you, wherein your great strength lies, and with which you might be bound to afflict you.
7 Samson ya ce mata, “In wani ya ɗaura ni da sababbin igiyoyin da ba su bushe ba, zan zama marar ƙarfi kamar kowa.”
And Samson said to her, If they bind me with seven green thongs that were never dried, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.
8 Sa’an nan shugabannin Filistiyawa suka kawo mata sababbin igiyoyi guda bakwai da ba su bushe ba, sai ta daure shi da su.
Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green thongs which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.
9 Da mutane a ɓoye a cikin ɗaki tare da ita, sai ta yi ihu ta ce, “Samson ga Filistiyawa sun zo su kama ka!” Da jin haka sai ya tsintsinke igiyoyin kamar zaren da ya yi kusa da harshen wuta. Saboda haka asirin ƙarfinsa bai tonu ba.
Now there were men lying in wait, abiding with her in the chamber. And she said to him, The Philistines be on you, Samson. And he broke the thongs, as a thread of wick is broken when it touches the fire. So his strength was not known.
10 Sa’an nan Delila ta ce wa Samson, “Ka mai da ni wawiya; ka ruɗe ni. Yanzu, ka gaya mini yadda za a daure ka.”
And Delilah said to Samson, Behold, you have mocked me, and told me lies: now tell me, I pray you, with which you might be bound.
11 Ya ce, “In wani ya ɗaura ni sosai da sababbin igiyoyin da ba a taɓa amfani da su ba, zan zama marar ƙarfi kamar kowa.”
And he said to her, If they bind me fast with new ropes that never were occupied, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.
12 Saboda haka Delila ta ɗauki sababbin igiyoyi ta ɗaura shi da su. Sa’an nan, tare da mutane a ɓoye a ɗakin, ta yi ihu ta ce, “Samson ga Filistiyawa sun zo su kama ka!” Amma sai ya tsintsinke su kamar zare.
Delilah therefore took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said to him, The Philistines be on you, Samson. And there were liers in wait abiding in the chamber. And he broke them from off his arms like a thread.
13 Sa’an nan Delila ta ce, “Har yanzu, ka mai da shashasha, kana mai da ni wawiya kana kuma yin mini ƙarya. Ka gaya mini yadda za a daure ka mana.” Ya ce mata, “In kin yi kitson gashin kaina guda bakwai kika ɗaura su da zare kika buga su da akwasha, zan rasa ƙarfi in zama kamar kowa.” Saboda haka yayinda yake barci, sai Delila ta yi kitson gashin kansa guda bakwai ta ɗinka su da zare,
And Delilah said to Samson, Till now you have mocked me, and told me lies: tell me with which you might be bound. And he said to her, If you weave the seven locks of my head with the web.
14 ta kuma ɗaura su da akwasha. Ta sāke yin ihu ta ce, “Samson ga Filistiyawa sun zo su kama ka.” Ya tashi daga barcinsa ya tumɓuke akwashan tare da zaren da aka ɗaura gashin kansa da su.
And she fastened it with the pin, and said to him, The Philistines be on you, Samson. And he awaked out of his sleep, and went away with the pin of the beam, and with the web.
15 Sa’an nan ta ce masa, “Yaya kake cewa kana sona alhali ba ka yarda da ni ba? Wannan shi ne sau na uku kana mai da ni wawiya kuma ba ka nuna mini asirin ƙarfinka ba.”
And she said to him, How can you say, I love you, when your heart is not with me? you have mocked me these three times, and have not told me wherein your great strength lies.
16 Da irin wannan fitina ta tsokane shi kwana da kwanaki har sai da ya gaji kamar zai mutu.
And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, so that his soul was vexed to death;
17 Saboda haka sai ya faɗa mata kome ya ce, “Ba a taɓa sa reza a kaina ba, domin ni Naziri ne keɓaɓɓe ga Allah tun haihuwa. In kuwa an aske kaina, ƙarfina zai rabu da ni, sai in zama kamar kowa.”
That he told her all his heart, and said to her, There has not come a razor on my head; for I have been a Nazarite to God from my mother’s womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.
18 Da Delila ta gane ya gaya mata kome yanzu, sai ta aika saƙo zuwa ga shugabannin Filistiyawa ta ce, “Ku ƙara zuwa sau ɗayan nan, ai, ya gaya mini kome.” Saboda haka shugabannin Filistiyawa suka dawo tare da azurfa a hannuwansu.
And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he has showed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her, and brought money in their hand.
19 Bayan ta sa shi ya yi barci a cinyarta, sai ta kira wani ya zo ya aske kitso guda bakwai nan a kansa, aka fara rinjayensa. Ƙarfinsa kuwa ya rabu da shi.
And she made him sleep on her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.
20 Sa’an nan ta yi ihu ta ce, “Samson ga Filistiyawa sun zo su kama ka!” Sai ya farka daga barci yana tsammani cewa, “Zan fita kamar dā in miƙe jikina.” Amma bai san cewa Ubangiji ya rabu da shi ba.
And she said, The Philistines be on you, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he knew not that the LORD was departed from him.
21 Sa’an nan Filistiyawa suka fizge shi, suka ƙwaƙule idanunsa suka gangara da shi zuwa Gaza. Da suka daure shi da sarƙoƙin tagulla, sai aka sa shi yana niƙa a kurkuku.
But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house.
22 Amma gashi kansa ya fara tohuwa kuma bayan an aske shi.
However, the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaven.
23 To, sai Filistiyawa suka taru don su miƙa hadaya ga Dagon allahnsu su kuma yi biki cewa, “Allahnmu ya bashe abokin gābanmu Samson a hannuwanmu.”
Then the lords of the Philistines gathered them together for to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice: for they said, Our god has delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.
24 Sa’ad da mutane suka gan shi, sai suka yabi allahnsu, suna cewa, “Allahnmu ya bashe abokin gābanmu a hannunmu, wanda ya lalace ƙasarmu ya kuma raɓanya kisan mutanenmu.”
And when the people saw him, they praised their god: for they said, Our god has delivered into our hands our enemy, and the destroyer of our country, which slew many of us.
25 Yayinda suke cikin farin ciki, sai suka yi ihu, suka ce, “Fito mana da Samson yă yi mana wasa.” Saboda haka aka zo da Samson daga kurkuku, shi kuwa ya yi wasa a gabansu. Sa’ad da suka tsai da shi a tsakanin ginshiƙai,
And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him between the pillars.
26 sai Samson ya ce wa bawan da ya riƙe hannunsa, “Ka kai ni inda zan taɓa ginshiƙan da suke ɗauke da wannan haikali, don in jingina a kai.”
And Samson said to the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the house stands, that I may lean on them.
27 To, haikalin ya cika da mutane maza da mata; dukan shugabannin Filistiyawa kuwa suna a can, a bisan rufin kuwa akwai mutum wajen dubu uku maza da mata suna kallon Samson yana wasa.
Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were on the roof about three thousand men and women, that beheld while Samson made sport.
28 Sa’an nan Samson ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, ya Allah ka tuna da ni, ka ƙarfafa ni sau ɗaya nan kaɗai, ka bar ni da bugu ɗaya kawai in ɗauki fansa a kan Filistiyawa domin idanuna.”
And Samson called to the LORD, and said, O Lord God, remember me, I pray you, and strengthen me, I pray you, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.
29 Sa’an nan Samson ya kai hannuwansa ga ginshiƙan waɗanda haikalin yake a kai, ya jingina jikinsa, hannunsa dama yana a ɗaya, hannun hagu kuma na ɗayan,
And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars on which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left.
30 Samson ya ce, “Bari in mutu tare da Filistiyawa!” Sa’an nan da dukan ƙarfinsa ya tura haikali ya fāɗa a kan shugabanni da dukan mutanen da suke ciki. Ta haka ya kashe mutane da yawa fiye da yayinda yake da rai.
And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell on the lords, and on all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life.
31 Sa’an nan’yan’uwansa da dukan dangin mahaifinsa suka gangaro don su ɗauke shi. Suka kawo shi suka binne tsakanin Zora da Eshtawol a kabarin Manowa mahaifinsa. Ya yi mulkin Isra’ila shekara ashirin.
Then his brothers and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought him up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the burial plot of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years.
