Juízes 14
1 E descendo Sansão a Timna, viu em Timna uma mulher das filhas dos filisteus.
And Samson went down to Timnathah, and saw a woman in Timnathah of the daughters of the Philistines.
2 E subiu, e declarou-o a seu pai e a sua mãe, dizendo: Eu vi em Timna uma mulher das filhas dos filisteus: rogo-vos que a deis a mim por mulher.
And he went up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnathah of the daughters of the Philistines; and now take her to me for wife.
3 E seu pai e sua mãe lhe disseram: Não há mulher entre as filhas de teus irmãos, nem em todo meu povo, para que vás tu a tomar mulher dos filisteus incircuncisos? E Sansão respondeu a seu pai: Toma-a a mim por mulher, porque esta agradou a meus olhos.
Then said unto him his father and his mother, Is there not among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, a woman, that thou art going to take a wife from the Philistines, the uncircumcised? And Samson said unto his father, This one take for me; for she pleaseth me well.
4 Mas seu pai e sua mãe não sabiam que isto vinha do SENHOR, e que ele buscava ocasião contra os filisteus: porque naquele tempo os filisteus dominavam sobre Israel.
But his father and his mother knew not that it was from the Lord, that he sought but an occasion against the Philistines; and at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.
5 E Sansão desceu com seu pai e com sua mãe a Timna: e quando chegaram às vinhas de Timna, eis que um leão jovem que vinha bramando até ele.
And Samson thus went down, with his father and his mother, to Timnathah; and when they were come as far as the vineyards of Timnathah, behold, a young lion came roaring toward him.
6 E o espírito do SENHOR caiu sobre ele, e despedaçou-o como quem despedaça um cabrito, sem ter nada em sua mão: e não deu a entender a seu pai nem a sua mãe o que havia feito.
And the Spirit of the Lord came suddenly over him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand; but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.
7 Veio, pois, e falou à mulher que havia agradado a Sansão.
And he went down, and spoke unto the woman; and she pleased Samson well.
8 E voltando depois de alguns dias para tomá-la, apartou-se para ver o corpo morto do leão, e eis que no corpo do leão um enxame de abelhas, e um favo de mel.
And when he returned after a time to take her, he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees in the carcass of the lion and honey likewise.
9 E tomando-o em suas mãos, foi-se comendo-o pelo caminho: e chegado que houve a seu pai e a sua mãe, deu-lhes também a eles que comessem; mas não lhes revelou que havia tomado aquela mel do corpo do leão.
And he took it out in his hands, and went on, eating as he was going, and came to his father and mother, and he gave unto them, and they did eat; but he told them not that out of the carcass of the lion he had taken the honey.
10 Veio, pois, seu pai à mulher, e Sansão fez ali banquete; porque assim costumavam fazer os rapazes.
And his father went down unto the woman; and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.
11 E quando eles o viram, tomaram trinta companheiros que estivessem com ele;
And it came to pass, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions, and they remained with him.
12 Aos quais Sansão disse: Eu vos proporei agora um enigma, o qual se nos sete dias do banquete vós me declarardes e descobrirdes, eu vos darei trinta sábanas e trinta mudas de vestidos.
And Samson said unto them, I will now propound unto you a riddle; if ye can in anywise tell it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then will I give you thirty shirts and thirty changes of garments;
13 Mas se não o souberes declarar a mim, vós me dareis as trinta mantas e as trinta mudas de vestidos. E eles responderam: Propõe-nos teu enigma, e o ouviremos.
But if ye will not be able to tell it to me, then shall ye give me thirty shirts and thirty changes of garments. And they said unto him, Propound thy riddle, that we may hear it.
14 Então lhes disse: Do comedor saiu comida, E do forte saiu doçura. E eles não puderam declarar-lhe o enigma em três dias.
And he said unto them, Out of the eater came forth food, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could not solve the riddle in three days.
15 E ao sétimo dia disseram à mulher de Sansão: Induz a teu marido a que nos declare este enigma, para que não te queimemos a ti e à casa de teu pai. Chamaste-nos aqui para possuir-nos?
And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson's wife, Persuade thy husband, that he may solve unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father's house with fire: have ye invited us to impoverish us? is it not so?
16 E chorou a mulher de Sansão diante dele, e disse: Somente me aborreces e não me amas, pois que não me declaras o enigma que propuseste aos filhos de meu povo. E ele respondeu: Eis que nem a meu pai nem a minha mãe o declarei; e havia eu de declará-lo a ti?
And Samson's wife wept before him, and said, Thou doest but hate me, and lovest me not: that riddle hast thou propounded unto the children of my people, and me hast thou not told [the solution]. And he said unto her, Behold, I have not told it to my father and to my mother, and thee shall I tell it?
17 E ela chorou diante dele os sete dias que eles tiveram banquete: mas ao sétimo dia ele o declarou a ela, porque lhe constrangeu; e ela o declarou aos filhos de seu povo.
And she wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted; and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she had worried him: and she told [the solution of] the riddle to the children of her people.
18 E ao sétimo dia, antes que o sol se pusesse, os da cidade lhe disseram: Que coisa mais doce que o mel? E que coisa mais forte que o leão? Se não arásseis com minha novilha, Nunca teríeis descoberto meu enigma.
Then said unto him the men of the city on the seventh day before the sun was yet gone down, What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said unto them, If ye had not ploughed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.
19 E o espírito do SENHOR caiu sobre ele, e desceu a Asquelom, e feriu trinta homens deles; e tomando seus despojos, deu as mudas de vestidos aos que haviam explicado o enigma: e acendido em ira foi-se à casa de seu pai.
And the Spirit of the Lord came suddenly over him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew of them thirty men, and he took their apparel, and gave the changes of garments unto the expounders of the riddle; but his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.
20 E a mulher de Sansão foi dada a seu companheiro, com o qual ele antes se acompanhava.
And Samson's wife was given to his companion who had been given him as his associate.
