Sog̒u 16
1 Un Simsons gāja uz Gazu un tur ieraudzīja vienu sievieti, kas bija mauka, un iegāja pie tās.
Samson went to Gaza. There he saw a prostitute and he went to have sex with her that night.
2 Un Gaziešiem tapa sacīts: Simsons ir šurp atnācis. Un tie gāja apkārt un glūnēja uz viņu cauru nakti pilsētas vārtos un turējās klusu cauru nakti un sacīja: kad rīta gaisma aust, tad to nokausim. Bet Simsons gulēja līdz pusnaktij.
The men of Gaza found out Samson was there, so they gathered to spend the night lying in wait for him at the town gates. They kept quiet all night, whispering to one another, “We'll kill him when it gets light.”
3 Un nakts vidū viņš cēlās un sagrāba pilsētas vārtus ar tiem diviem stabiem un tos izcēla līdz ar aizšaujamo un tos lika uz saviem pleciem un tos uznesa uz tā kalna galu, kas ir pret Hebronu.
But Samson only stayed until halfway through the night. He grabbed hold of the town gates along with their two posts and ripped them up, along with the lock-bar. Putting them on his shoulders, he carried them to the hill opposite Hebron.
4 Un notikās pēc tam, ka viņš iemīļoja vienu sievieti pie Zoreka upes ar vārdu Delila.
Later he fell in love with a woman named Delilah living in the Sorek Valley.
5 Tad Fīlistu lielkungi pie tās atnāca un uz to sacīja: pārrunā viņu un lūko, iekš kā viņa lielais spēks stāv, un ar ko viņu spējam pārvarēt, ka viņu saistām un savaldām, tad mēs tev dosim ikkatrs tūkstoš un simts sudraba (gabalus).
The Philistine leaders approached her, saying, “See if you can seduce him and get him to show you the secret of his incredible strength, and find out how we can overpower him and tie him up so he can't do anything. We'll all give you eleven hundred shekels of silver each.”
6 Tad Delila sacīja uz Simsonu: saki man jel lūdzams, iekš kam stāv tavs lielais spēks, un ar ko tevi var saistīt un savaldīt?
Delilah went and pleaded with Samson, “Please tell me where your incredible strength comes from, and what can be used to tie you up so you can't do anything.”
7 Un Simsons uz to sacīja: ja mani saistītu ar septiņām zaļām lūku virvēm, kas vēl nav sakaltušas, tad es taptu nespēcīgs un būtu tā kā cits cilvēks.
“If I'm tied up with seven supple bowstrings that haven't dried out, I'll become just as weak,” Samson told her.
8 Tad Fīlistu lielkungi pie tās atnesa septiņas zaļas lūku virves, kas nebija sakaltušas, un tā viņu ar tām saistīja.
The Philistine leaders brought her seven supple bowstrings that hadn't dried out, and she tied him up with them.
9 Bet tie glūnētāji pie tās sēdēja kambarī. Un tā sacīja uz viņu: Fīlisti pār tevi, Simson! Tad viņš saraustīja tās virves tā kā pakulu pavedienu sarauta, kas pie uguns apsvilināts. Un viņa spēks netapa zināms.
Having arranged for men to hide in her bedroom ready to attack him, she shouted out, “Samson, the Philistines are here to get you!” But he snapped the bowstrings like a thread snaps when a flame touches it. So nobody found out where his strength came from.
10 Tad Delila sacīja uz Simsonu: redzi, tu mani esi mānījis un man melus stāstījis. Nu tad saki man lūdzams, ar ko tevi var saistīt.
Later Delilah said to Samson, “You've made me look stupid, telling me these lies! So now please tell me what can be used to tie you up.”
11 Un viņš uz to sacīja: ja mani saistītu ar jaunām virvēm, ar ko nekāds darbs nav darīts, tad es taptu bezspēcīgs un būtu kā cits cilvēks.
“If I'm tied up tight with new ropes that haven't been used before, I'll become just as weak as anyone else,” he told her.
12 Tad Delila ņēma jaunas virves un viņu ar tām saistīja un uz to sacīja: Fīlisti pār tevi, Simson! Un tie glūnētāji sēdēja kambarī. Bet viņš tās saraustīja no savām rokām tā kā pavedienu.
So Delilah got some new ropes and tied him up with them. She shouted out, “Samson, the Philistines are here to get you!” As before, men were hiding in her bedroom. But again Samson snapped the ropes from his arms as if they were thin threads.
13 Tad Delila sacīja uz Simsonu: līdz šim tu mani esi mānījis un man melus stāstījis; saki man jel, ar ko tevi var saistīt? Un viņš uz to sacīja: ja tu manas septiņas matu bizes aptītu ap riestavu.
Delilah said to Samson, “You keep on making me look stupid, telling me these lies! Just tell me what can be used to tie you up!” “If you were to weave the seven braids of my hair into the web on the loom and tighten it with the pin, I'll become as weak as anyone else,” he told her. So while he was asleep, Delilah took the seven braids of his head, weaving them into the web,
14 Un viņa tās piesita ar tapu un uz to sacīja: Fīlisti pār tevi, Simson! Un viņš uzmodās no sava miega un izrāva to aptīto tapu un to riestavu.
and tightening the pin. She shouted out, “Samson, the Philistines are here to get you!” But Samson woke up and ripped out both the pin and the web from the loom.
15 Tad viņa uz to sacīja: kā tu vari sacīt: es tevi mīlēju, kad tomēr tava sirds nav ar mani? Tu nu trīs reiz mani esi mānījis un man neesi sacījis, iekš kam tavs lielais spēks stāv.
Then Delilah complained to Samson, “How can you tell me, ‘I love you,’ when you don't let me into your confidence? Three times you've me look stupid, not telling me where your incredible strength comes from!”
16 Un kad viņa to ikdienas ar savām runām māca un mocīja, tad viņa dvēsele apnika līdz pat nāvei.
She nagged and complained all the time, pestering him until he wanted to die.
17 Un tas viņai darīja zināmu visu savu sirdi un uz viņu sacīja: uz manu galvu dzenamais nazis nav nācis, jo es esmu Dievam svētīts no mātes miesām; kad (mani mati) taptu nodzīti, tad mans spēks no manis atstātos, un es taptu bezspēcīgs un būtu tā kā visi citi cilvēki.
Eventually Samson confided in her, sharing everything. “My hair has never been cut, because I've been dedicated as a Nazirite to God from my birth. If I'm shaved, my strength will leave me, and I'll become as weak as anyone else.”
18 Kad nu Delila redzēja, ka tas viņai visu savu sirdi bija izsacījis, tad viņa nosūtīja un sasauca Fīlistu lielkungus sacīdama: atnāciet vēl šo reiz', jo viņš man izsacījis visu savu sirdi. Tad Fīlistu lielkungi pie viņas atnāca un atnesa to sudrabu savā rokā.
Delilah realized that he had truly confided in her and shared everything, she sent a message to the Philistine leaders telling them, “Come back once more, because this time he's confided in me and told me everything.” So the Philistine leaders returned, bringing with them the money to give to her.
19 Bet viņa tam lika aizmigt savā klēpī un aicināja vīru un lika nodzīt viņa galvas septiņas matu bizes un sāka viņu pārvarēt, un viņa spēks no viņa atstājās.
Delilah soothed him sleep on her lap, and then called in someone to shave off the seven braids of hair. She started to torment him but he couldn't do anything for his strength left him.
20 Un viņa sacīja: Fīlisti pār tevi, Simson! Un viņš uzmodās no sava miega un domāja: es iziešu šo reizi kā citām reizēm un izraušos; jo viņš nezināja, ka Tas Kungs no viņa bija atstājies.
She shouted out, “Samson, the Philistines are here to get you!” Samson woke up and thought to himself, “I'll do like before and shake myself free.” But he didn't know that the Lord had left him.
21 Tad Fīlisti viņu sagrāba un izdūra viņam acis un to noveda uz Gazu un to sēja ar divām vara ķēdēm, un viņam tur cietumā bija jāmaļ.
The Philistines grabbed him and gouged out his eyes. Then they took him to Gaza where they imprisoned him in bronze chains. He was made to work grinding grain at the mill in the prison.
22 Bet viņa galvas mati sāka atkal ataugt, kad tie bija nodzīti.
But his hair began to grow back after it had been shaved off.
23 Tad Fīlistu lielkungi sapulcējās, savam dievam Dagonam lielu upuri upurēt un līksmoties, un tie sacīja: mūsu dievs mūsu ienaidnieku Simsonu nodevis mūsu rokā.
The Philistine leaders gathered for a great religious festival to sacrifice to their god Dagon and to celebrate, saying, “Our god has handed Samson our enemy over to us!”
24 Un kad tie ļaudis viņu redzēja, tad tie teica savu dievu, jo tie sacīja: mūsu dievs mūsu ienaidnieku mums ir rokā devis, kas mūsu zemi ir postījis un lielu pulku no mums nokāvis.
When the people saw him, they praised their god, and said, “Our god has handed our enemy over to us, the one who devastated our land and killed so many of us.”
25 Un kad viņu sirds līksmojās, tad tie sacīja: sauciet Simsonu, lai tas mūs pajautrina. Tad tie sauca Simsonu no cietuma nama, un viņš tiem bija par pajautrināšanu, un tie viņam lika stāvēt starp diviem stabiem.
As they began to get drunk, they shouted, “Summon Samson so he can entertain us!” So they summoned Samson from the prison to entertain them, and made him stand between the two main pillars of the building.
26 Tad Simsons sacīja uz to puisi, kas viņu pie rokas vadīja: laid mani vaļā un ļauj man tos stabus taustīt, uz kā tas nams stiprināts, un pie tiem atslieties.
Samson said to the servant boy who was leading him by the hand, “Leave me by the pillars on which the temple rests so I can feel them, and lean against them.”
27 Bet tas nams bija pilns ar vīriem un sievām. Un tur bija visi Fīlistu lielkungi, un uz tā jumta bija kādi trīs tūkstoši vīri un sievas, kas lūkojās uz Simsona jautrināšanu.
The temple was full of people. All the Philistine rulers were there, and on the roof were the ordinary people watching what Samson was doing.
28 Tad Simsons piesauca To Kungu un sacīja: Kungs, Dievs, piemini mani un stiprini lūdzams mani tikai šo reiz', ak Dievs, ka es par savām abējām acīm vienreiz varu atriebties.
Samson called out to the Lord, “Lord God, please remember me and give me strength. Please God, do this just once more, so that with one act I may pay the Philistines back in revenge for the loss of my two eyes.”
29 Un Simsons apkampa tos divus vidējos stabus, uz kā tas nams bija stiprināts un uz kā tas turējās, vienu ar savu labo roku un vienu ar savu kreiso roku, un Simsons sacīja:
Samson reached for the two middle pillars that supported the temple. With his right hand leaning on one pillar and his left hand on the other,
30 Lai mana dvēsele mirst ar tiem Fīlistiem! Un viņš locījās ar varu, - tad tas nams krita uz tiem lielkungiem un uz visiem ļaudīm, kas iekšā bija un vairāk bija miroņu, ko viņš mirdams nokāva, nekā ko viņš bija nokāvis, dzīvs būdams.
Samson shouted, “Let me die with the Philistines!” and he pushed with all his strength. The temple collapsed on the rulers and all the people in it. So those killed at his death were more than he killed in his life.
31 Tad viņa brāļi un viss viņa tēva nams nonāca un to ņēma un to aiznesa un apraka starp Careū un Estaoli, Manoūs, viņa tēva, kapā. Un viņš Israēli bija tiesājis divdesmit gadus.
Then his brothers and his whole family came and took him back and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of Manoah his father. He led Israel as judge for twenty years.
