Abahluleli 15
1 Emva kwalokho, ngesikhathi sokuvuna ingqoloyi, uSamsoni wathatha izinyane lembuzi wethekelela umkakhe. Wathi, “Ngiya endlini yomkami.” Kodwa uyisezala wamalela ukuba angene.
Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe, le luxaɣi la, Samson tsɔ gbɔ̃vi aɖe yi be yeatsɔ ana ye srɔ̃ eye yeadɔ kplii gake srɔ̃a fofo meɖe mɔ nɛ o.
2 Wathi, “Ngangileqiniso lokuthi wawusumzonda kakhulu, ngasengimendisela kumkhaphi wakho. Umnawakhe kamuhle kulaye na? Thatha yena.”
Egblɔ na Samson be, “Mebu xaa be ɖe nèlé fui eya ta metsɔe na xɔ̃wò wòɖe. Nɔvia suetɔ hã li, ame si dze tugbe wui eya ta àte ŋu aɖe eya boŋ.”
3 USamsoni wathi kubo, “Khathesi sengilelungelo lokuphindisela okubi kumaFilistiya. Ngizawalimaza impela.”
Nu sia do dɔmedzoe na Samson ŋutɔ eya ta wòblu ɖe wo ta gblɔ be, “Ne nya aɖe dzɔ ɖe mia dzi fifia la, migabu fɔm o!”
4 Ngakho wasuka wabamba amakhanka angamakhulu amathathu wawabophanisa imisila ngambilimbili. Wasebophela uluthi lomlilo emisileni yonke ayeyibophanisile,
Nu sia ta Samson yi ɖalé abei alafa etɔ̃, sa kɔ abei eve ɖe sia ɖe ƒe asikewo ɖekae eye wòbla akakati ɖeka ɖe abei eve ɖe sia ɖe siwo ƒe asikewo wòsa ɖekae la ŋu.
5 walumathisa izinti zomlilo wawayekela amakhanka angena emabeleni amiyo amaFilistiya. Watshisa ayesezizeni lamabele amiyo, lezivini kanye lezivande zama-oliva.
Esi dzo tɔ akakati ɖe sia ɖe eye wòna abeiawo ƒu du yi Filistitɔwo ƒe agblewo me eye wotɔ dzo lu siwo womexa haɖe o kple wainkawo kpakple amitiwo.
6 Kwathi amaFilistiya ebuza ukuthi, “Ngubani owenze lokhu na?” atshelwa ukuthi, “NguSamsoni, umkhwenyana womThimina ngoba umkakhe wendiselwa kumkhaphi wakhe.” Ngakho amaFilistiya ahamba ayatshisa umkaSamsoni kanye loyise, bafa.
Esi Filistitɔwo bia be ame kae wɔ esia la, woɖo eŋu na wo be, “Samson ye elabena srɔ̃a fofo tsɔ srɔ̃a na ŋutsu bubu wòɖe.” Ale Filistitɔwo tɔ dzo nyɔnuvi la kple fofoa kple woƒe aƒe.
7 USamsoni wathi kubo, “Njengoba selenze lokhu, angiyikukhawula engikwenzayo ngize ngiphindisele kini.”
Samson ka atam be, “Magabia hlɔ̃ kokoko hafi adzudzɔ.”
8 Wabahlasela kakubi wabulala abanengi babo. Emva kwalokho wahamba wayahlala ebhalwini edwaleni lase-Ethamu.
Eya ta Samson dza ali kple ata na wo hewu ame geɖewo eye wòyi ɖanɔ agado aɖe me le Etam.
9 AmaFilistiya ahamba ayamisa koJuda, asabalala eduze leLehi.
Filistitɔwo va ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Yuda eye wokaka ɖe Lehi.
10 Abantu bakoJuda babuza bathi, “Lizesihlaselelani na?” Bona baphendula bathi, “Silande ukuzabopha uSamsoni, senze kuye lokhu akwenzayo kithi.”
Yudatɔwo bia wo be, “Nu ka dim miele le afi sia?” Filistitɔwo ɖo eŋu be, “Míeva be míalé Samson eye míawɔe abe ale si wòwɔ mí ene.”
11 Abantu bakoJuda abazinkulungwane ezintathu baya ebhalwini edwaleni lase-Ethamu bathi kuSamsoni, “Kawazi yini ukuthi amaFilistiya ayasibusa? Kuyini osusenzele khona ngempela?” Waphendula wathi, “Ngimane ngenza kuwo lokho akwenza kimi.”
Ale Yuda ŋutsu alafa etɔ̃ yi Samson gbɔ le agado la me le Etam. Wobiae be, “Nu kae nye nu sia si nèle mía wɔm? Ɖe mènya be Filistitɔwoe le mía dzi ɖum oa?” Samson ɖo eŋu be, “Nu si wowɔm teƒe koe meɖo na wo.”
12 Bathi kuye, “Thina silande ukuzakubopha sikunikele kuwo.” USamsoni wathi, “Fungani kimi ukuthi kaliyikungibulala lina ngokwenu.”
Wogblɔ nɛ be, “Míeva be míalé wò eye míatsɔ wò ade asi na Filistitɔwo.” Samson gblɔ be, “Mika atam nam be miawo miawum o.”
13 Baphendula bathi, “Siyavuma. Thina sizakubopha nje kuphela besesikunikela kuwo. Kasiyikukubulala.” Ngakho bambopha ngemichilo emibili emitsha, basebesuka laye edwaleni.
Woɖo eŋu be, “Míelɔ̃. Ɖe ko míabla wò, atsɔ wò ade asi na wo. Míawu wò o.” Ale woblae kple atagbika yeye eve eye wokplɔe dzoe tso agakpe la dzi.
14 Esebanga eLehi, amaFilistiya amhlangabeza eklabalala. UMoya kaThixo wehlela phezu kwakhe ngamandla. Imichilo ezingalweni zakhe yaba njengesikusha esitshileyo, izibopho zawa ezandleni zakhe.
Esi Samson kple Yuda ŋutsu siwo lée ɖo Lehi la, Filistitɔwo tso aseye kple ɣli. Enumake Yehowa ƒe ŋusẽ gaɖo Samson me eye atagbika siwo wotsɔ blae la tso abe ɖetika ko wonye ene eye woge le alɔnu nɛ!
15 Esethole ithambo lomhlathi kababhemi elitsha, walithatha wabulala ngalo abantu abayinkulungwane.
Etsɔ tedzi kuku aɖe ƒe glãƒu si nɔ anyigba la eye wotsɔe wu Filistitɔ akpe ɖeka.
16 USamsoni wasesithi, “Ngethambo lomhlathi kababhemi, ngibenze baba ngobabhemi. Ngethambo lomhlathi kababhemi ngibulele amadoda ayinkulungwane.”
Emegbe la Samson gblɔ be, “Tedzi glãe metsɔ wu ame akpe ɖekae!”
17 Eseqedile ukukhuluma walilahla ithambo lomhlathi; indawo leyo yasithiwa yiRamathi-Lehi.
Esi wòwu nya siawo gbɔgblɔ nu la, eɖe asi le tedziglã la ŋu da ɖi. Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, woyɔa teƒe ma be, “Ramat Lehi,” si gɔmee nye “Tedziglãtogbɛ.”
18 Ngenxa yokuthi wayesome kakhulu, wakhala kuThixo wathi, “Uyiphile inceku yakho ukunqoba okukhulu. Pho sekumele ngibulawe yikoma yini njalo ngiwele ezandleni zabangasokanga na?”
Tsikɔ de asi Samson wuwu me vevie eya ta wòdo gbe ɖa na Yehowa gblɔ be, “Èɖe Israel nukutɔe to dzinye va se ɖe egbe! Ɖe maku azɔ le tsikɔwuame ta eye mage ɖe trɔ̃subɔla siawo si mea?”
19 UNkulunkulu wasevula umthonjana eLehi, kwaphuma amanzi kuwo. USamsoni esenathile, amandla akhe aphenduka, wavuseleleka. Ngakho umthombo lowo wathiwa yi-Eni Hakhore, njalo ulokhu ukhona eLehi.
Ale Mawu na tsi do tso agakpe aɖe me eye esi Samson noe la, agbe gaɖo eme. Ena ŋkɔ teƒea be “En Hakore” si gɔmee nye, “Gbedoɖala Ƒe Vudo.” Eye teƒe sia gali va se ɖe egbe.
20 USamsoni wakhokhela abako-Israyeli iminyaka engamatshumi amabili ngesikhathi samaFilistiya.
Samson nye ʋɔnudrɔ̃la na Israel le ƒe blaeve siwo kplɔ nya siawo ɖo la me, ke Filistitɔwo gaɖu Israelnyigba la dzi kokoko.
