Uk-ukom 15
1 Kalpasan iti sumagmamano nga al-aldaw, kabayatan ti tiempo a panaga-ani iti trigo, nangala ni Samson iti urbon a kalding, ket napan sumarungkar iti asawana. Kinunana iti bagina, “Sumrekakto iti siled ti asawak”. Ngem saan isuna a palubosan ti ama iti asawana a sumrek.
And it came to pass, after a time, in the days of wheat-harvest, that Samson went to visit his wife, with a kid, and he said—I will go in unto my wife, in the chamber. But her father would not suffer him to go in.
2 Kinuna ti ama iti asawana, “Ti pagarupek ket pudno a kinaguram ti asawam, isu nga intedko isuna iti gayyemmo. Napinpintas ti ub-ubing a kabsatna ngem isuna, saan kadi? Alaem ketdi isuna a kasukatna.”
And her father said—I, thought, that thou didst, hate, her, so I gave her to thy companion, —Is not, her younger sister, fairer than she? Pray let her be thine, in her stead.
3 Kinuna ni Samson kadakuada, “Ita a kanito awan basolko no maipapan kadagiti Filisteo inton dangrak ida.”
And Samson said of them, I shall be more blameless, this time, than the Philistines, —though I should do them a mischief.
4 Napan nagtiliw ni Samson iti tallo-gasut nga atap nga aso ket pinagrinneppetna dagiti ipus ti tunggal pares. Ket nangala isuna kadagiti pagsilawan ken inreppetna dagitoy iti nagtengngaan ti tunggal agpares nga ipus.
So Samson went, and caught three hundred jackals, —and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put one torch between the two tails, in the midst.
5 Idi naseggedannan dagiti pagsilawan imbulosna dagiti atap nga aso kadagiti saan pay a naani a trigo dagiti Filisteo, ket pinuoran dagitoy dagiti nakapenpen a trigo ken dagiti saan pay naani a trigo idiay talon, agraman dagiti kaubasan ken dagiti kaoliboan.
And, when he had set fire to the torches, he let them go into the standing corn of the Philistines, —and set fire, both to the stack of sheaves and to the standing corn, and besides to the olive plantation.
6 Nagsaludsod dagiti Filisteo, “Siasino ti nangaramid iti daytoy?” Naibaga kadakuada, “Ni Samson, a manugang ti Timniteo, ti nangaramid iti daytoy, gapu ta innala ti Timniteo ti asawa ni Samson ket intedna daytoy iti gayyemna.” Ket napan pinuoran dagiti Filisteo ti babai ken ti amana.
Then said the Philistines—Who hath done this? And they said—Samson, son-in-law of the Timnite, because he hath taken his wife, and given her to his companion. So the Philistines went up and burned her and her father, with fire.
7 Kinuna ni Samson kadakuada, “No daytoy iti aramidenyo, agibalesakto kadakayo, ket kalpasan a maaramid dayta, agsardengakto.”
And Samson said to them, Though ye do the like of this, yet will I be avenged upon you, and, afterwards, will I cease.
8 Ket pinutedputedna ida a pinidaso, iti patong ken luppoda, pinatay na ida iti nakaro a panangpapatay. Kalpasanna simmalog isuna ket nagnaed iti maysa a rukib idiay rangkis ti Etam.
So he smote them, leg on thigh, with a great smiting, —and went down and dwelt in a cleft of the crag Etam.
9 Ket simmang-at dagiti Filisteo ket nagsaganada a manggubat iti Juda ket impuestoda ti armadada idiay Lehi.
Then went up the Philistines, and encamped in Judah, —and were spread abroad in Lehi.
10 Kinuna dagiti lallaki ti Juda, “Apay a simmang-atkayo a mangraut kadakami?” Kinunada, “Rumautkami tapno matiliwmi ni Samson, tapno maaramidmi kenkuana ti inaramidna kadakami.”
And the men of Judah said, Wherefore have ye come up against us? And they said—To bind Samson, are we come up, to do unto him as he hath done unto us.
11 Ket simmalog dagiti tallo ribu a lallaki ti Juda a napan iti rukib idiay rangkis ti Etam, ket kinunada kenni Samson, “Saanmo aya ammo a dagiti Filisteo ti mangiturturay kadatayo? Ania daytoy nga inaramidmo kadakami?” Kinuna ni Samson kadakuada, “Ti inaramidda kaniak, ket isu met ti inaramidko kadakuada.”
Then went down three thousand men out of Judah, unto the cleft of the crag Etam, and said unto Samson—Knowest thou not that the Philistines are lording it over us? What, then, is this thou hast done to us? And he said unto them, As they have done to me, so, have I done to them.
12 “Kinunada kenni Samson, “Immaykami tapno reppetendaka, ket iyawatdaka iti turay dagiti Filisteo,” Kinuna ni Samson kadakuada, “Isapatayo kaniak a saan a dakayo a mismo ti mangpatay kaniak.”
And they said to him—To bind thee, are we come down, to deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said to them, Swear to me, that ye will not fall upon me, yourselves.
13 Kinunada kenkuana, “Saan, reppetendaka laeng ket iyawatdaka kadakuada. Ikarimi a saandaka a patayen.” Ket rineppetda isuna iti dua a baro a tali ket inruarda isuna manipud iti bato.
And they answered him, saying—Nay; but we will, bind, thee, and deliver thee into their hand, but we will not, put thee to death. So they bound him with two new ropes, and took him up from the crag.
14 Idi dimteng isuna idiay Lehi, nagpukkaw dagiti Filisteo idi sinabatda isuna. Ket immay kenkuana ti Espiritu ni Yahweh nga addaan pannakabalin. Nagbalin a kasla lino a napuoran dagiti tali iti takiagna, ket natnag dagitoy manipud kadagiti imana.
He, was coming in as far as Lehi, and, the Philistines, came shouting to meet him, —when the Spirit of Yahweh came suddenly over him, and the ropes that were upon his arms became as threads of flax which have been ignited with fire, so that his bonds melted from off his hands.
15 Nakasarak ni Samson iti sadiwa a tulang ti panga ti asno, pinidutna daytoy ket pinatayna ti sangaribu a lallaki babaen iti daytoy.
Then found he the jawbone of an ass newly-slain, —so he thrust forth his hand, and took it, and smote therewith, a thousand men.
16 Kinuna ni Samson, “Babaen iti tulang ti panga ti asno, nagabsuon iti rabaw dagiti gabsuon. Napapatayko ti sangaribu a lallaki babaen iti tulan ti panga ti asno.”
And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, —have I piled them up in heaps! With the jawbone of an ass, have I smitten a thousand men!
17 Idi nalpas a nagsasao ni Samson, imbellengna ti tulang ti panga ti asno, ket naawagan ti lugar iti Ramat-Lehi.
And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, —and called the name of that place, Ramath-lehi.
18 Mawaw unay ni Samson ket immawag kenni Yahweh ket kinuna, “Intedmo daytoy a dakkel a panagballigi iti adipenmo, ngem ita matayak gapu iti pannakawaw ket matnagakto kadagiti ima dagiti a saan a nakugit.”
And he was sore athirst, so he cried unto Yahweh, and said, Thou thyself, hast given, into the hand of thy servant, this great salvation, —and, now, must I die of thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?
19 Ket inungap ti Dios ti nalungog a lugar idiay Lehi, ket adda iti pimmusuak a danum. Idi nakainom isuna, nagsubli ti pigsana ket simmaranta isuna. Isu a napanaganan dayta a lugar iti En-Hakkore, ket adda pay daytoy idiay Lehi agingga ita nga aldaw.
So then God clave open the hollow that is in Lehi, and there came therefrom water, and he drank, and his spirit came back, and he revived, —for this cause, called he the name thereof—Ain-hakkore, which is in Lehi, until this day.
20 Nagbalin nga ukom ni Samson ti Israel kadagiti al-aldaw dagiti Filisteo iti las-ud ti duapulo a tawen.
And he judged Israel, in the days of the Philistines, twenty years.
