< Sudije 16 >
1 Potom otide Samson u Gazu, i ondje vidje jednu ženu kurvu, i uðe k njoj.
And Sampson went to Gaza, and saw there a harlot, and went in to her.
2 I ljudima u Gazi bi kazano: doðe Samson ovamo. I opkoliše i vrebaše ga cijelu noæ na vratima gradskim; i stajahu u potaji cijelu noæ govoreæi: dok svane, ubiæemo ga.
And it was reported to the Gazites, saying, Sampson is come here: and they compassed him and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and they were quiet all the night, saying, Let us wait till the dawn appear, and we will kill him.
3 Ali Samson spavav do ponoæi usta u ponoæi, i šèepa vrata gradska s oba dovratka i išèupa ih s prijevornicom zajedno, i metnu ih na ramena i odnese navrh gore koja je prema Hevronu.
And Sampson slept till midnight, and rose up at midnight, and took hold of the doors of the gate of the city with the two posts, and lifted them up with the bar, and laid them on his shoulders, and he went up to the top of the mountain that is before Chebron, and laid them there.
4 Poslije toga zamilova djevojku na potoku Soriku, kojoj bješe ime Dalida.
And it came to pass after this that he loved a woman in Alsorech, and her name [was] Dalida.
5 I doðoše k njoj knezovi Filistejski i rekoše joj: prevari ga i iskušaj gdje mu stoji velika snaga i kako bismo mu dosadili da ga svežemo i svladamo; a mi æemo ti dati svaki po tisuæu i sto srebrnika.
And the princess of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, Beguile him, and see wherein his great strength [is], and wherewith we shall prevail against him, and bind him to humble him; and we will give you each eleven hundred [pieces] of silver.
6 I Dalida reèe Samsonu: hajde kaži mi gdje stoji tvoja velika snaga i èim bi se mogao svezati i svladati.
And Dalida said to Sampson, Tell me, I pray you, wherein [is] your great strength, and wherewith you shall be bound that you may be humbled.
7 A Samson joj reèe: da me svežu u sedam gužava sirovijeh neosušenijeh, onda bih izgubio snagu i bio kao i drugi èovjek.
And Sampson said to her, If they bind me with seven moist cords that have not been spoiled, then shall I be weak and be as one of ordinary men.
8 I donesoše joj knezovi Filistejski sedam gužava sirovijeh, još neosušenijeh, i ona ga sveza njima.
And the princess of the Philistines brought to her seven moist cords that had not been spoiled, and she bound him with them.
9 A kod nje bijaše zasjeda u sobi; i ona mu reèe: eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on pokida gužve, kao što se kida konac od kudjelje kad osjeti vatru; i ne dozna se za snagu njegovu.
And the liers in wait remained with her in the chamber; and she said to him, the Philistines [are] upon you, Sampson: and he broke the cords as if any one should break a thread of tow when it has touched the fire, and his strength was not known.
10 Potom reèe Dalida Samsonu: gle, prevario si me, i slagao si mi; nego hajde kaži mi èim bi se mogao svezati.
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, you have cheated me, and told me lies; now then tell me wherewith you shall be bound.
11 A on joj reèe: da me dobro svežu novim užima kojima nije ništa raðeno, tada bih izgubio snagu i bio bih kao drugi èovjek.
And he said to her, If they should bind me fast with new ropes with which work has not been done, then shall I be weak, and shall be as another man.
12 I Dalida uze nova uža, i sveza ga njima, pak mu reèe: eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A zasjeda bijaše u sobi. A on raskide s ruku uža kao konac.
And Dalida took new ropes, and bound him with them, and the liers in wait came out of the chamber, and she said, The Philistines [are] upon you, Sampson: and he broke them off his arms like a thread.
13 Tada reèe Dalida Samsonu: jednako me varaš i lažeš mi; kaži mi èim bi se mogao svezati? A on joj reèe: da sedam pramena kose na glavi mojoj priviješ na vratilo.
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, you have deceived me, and told me lies; tell me, I entreat you, wherewith you may be bound: and he said to her, If you should weave the seven locks of my head with the web, and should fasten them with the pin into the wall, then shall I be weak as another man.
14 I ona zaglavivši vratilo kocem, reèe: evo Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on se probudi od sna, i istrže kolac i osnovu i vratilo.
And it came to pass when he was asleep, that Dalida took the seven locks of his head, and wove them with the web, and fastened them with the pin into the wall, and she said, The Philistines [are] upon you, Sampson: and he awoke out of his sleep, and carried away the pin of the web out of the wall.
15 Opet mu ona reèe: kako možeš govoriti: ljubim te, kad srce tvoje nije kod mene? Veæ si me tri puta prevario ne hoteæi mi kazati gdje ti je velika snaga.
And Dalida said to Sampson, How say you, I love you, when your heart is not with me? this third time you have deceived me, and have not told me wherein [is] your great strength.
16 I ona mu dosaðivaše svojim rijeèima svaki dan i navaljivaše na nj, i duša mu prenemože da umre,
And it came to pass as she pressed him sore with her words continually, and straitened him, that his spirit failed almost to death.
17 Te joj otvori cijelo srce svoje, i reèe joj: britva nije nikad prešla preko glave moje, jer sam nazirej Božji od utrobe matere svoje; da se obrijem, ostavila bi me snaga moja i oslabio bih, i bio bih kao svaki èovjek.
Then he told her all his heart, and said to her, A razor has not come upon my head, because I have been a holy [one] of God from my mother's womb; if then I should be shaven, my strength will depart from me, and I shall be weak, and I shall be as all [other] men.
18 A Dalida videæi da joj je otvorio cijelo srce svoje, posla i pozva knezove Filistejske poruèivši im: hodite sada, jer mi je otvorio cijelo srce svoje. Tada doðoše knezovi Filistejski k njoj i donesoše novce u rukama svojim.
And Dalida saw that he told her all his heart, and she sent and called the princess of the Philistines, saying, Come up yet this once; for he has told me all his heart. And the chiefs of the Philistines went up to her, and brought the money in their hands.
19 A ona ga uspava na krilu svojem, i dozva èovjeka te mu obrija sedam pramena kose s glave, i ona ga prva svlada kad ga ostavi snaga njegova.
And Dalida made Sampson sleep upon her knees; and she called a man, and he shaved the seven locks of his head, and she began to humble him, and his strength departed from him.
20 I ona reèe: eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on probudiv se od sna reèe: izaæi æu kao i prije i oteæu se. Jer ne znadijaše da je Gospod otstupio od njega.
And Dalida said, The Philistines [are] upon you, Sampson: and he awoke out of his sleep and said, I will go out as at former times, and shake myself; and he knew not that the Lord was departed from him.
21 Tada ga uhvatiše Filisteji, i iskopaše mu oèi, i odvedoše ga u Gazu i okovaše ga u dvoje verige mjedene; i meljaše u tamnici.
And the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he ground in the prison-house.
22 A kosa na glavi njegovoj poèe rasti kao što je bila kad ga obrijaše.
And the hair of his head began to grow as before it was shaven.
23 I knezovi Filistejski skupiše se da prinesu veliku žrtvu Dagonu bogu svojemu, i da se provesele; pa rekoše: predade nam bog naš u ruke naše Samsona neprijatelja našega.
And the chiefs of the Philistines met to offer a great sacrifice to their god Dagon, and to make merry; and they said, God has given into our hand our enemy Sampson.
24 Takoðer i narod vidjevši ga hvaljaše boga svojega govoreæi: predade nam bog naš u ruke naše neprijatelja našega i zatiraèa zemlje naše i koji pobi tolike izmeðu nas.
And the people saw him, and sang praises to their god; for our god, [said they], has delivered into our hand our enemy, who wasted our land, and who multiplied our slain.
25 I kad se razveseli srce njihovo rekoše: zovite Samsona da nam igra. I dozvaše Samsona iz tamnice da im igra, i namjestiše ga meðu dva stupa.
And when their heart was merry, then they said, Call Sampson out of the prison-house, and let him play before us: and they called Sampson out of the prison-house, and he played before them; and they struck him with the palms of their hands, and set him between the pillars.
26 Tada Samson reèe momku koji ga držaše za ruku: pusti me, da opipam stupove na kojima stoji kuæa, da se naslonim na njih.
And Sampson said to the young man that held his hand, Suffer me to feel the pillars on which the house [rests], and I will stay myself upon them.
27 A kuæa bijaše puna ljudi i žena i svi knezovi Filistejski bijahu ondje; i na krovu bijaše oko tri tisuæe ljudi i žena, koji gledahu kako Samson igra.
And the house [was] full of men and woman, and there were all the chiefs of the Philistines, and on the roof [were] about three thousand men and woman looking at the sports of Sampson.
28 Tada Samson zavapi ka Gospodu i reèe: Gospode, Gospode! opomeni me se, molim te, i ukrijepi me, molim te, samo sada, o Bože! da se osvetim jedanput Filistejima za oba oka svoja.
And Sampson wept before the Lord, and said, O Lord, my lord, remember me, I pray you, and strengthen me, O God, yet this once, and I will requite one recompense to the Philistines for my two eyes.
29 I zagrli Samson dva stupa srednja, na kojima stajaše kuæa, i nasloni se na njih, na jedan desnom a na drugi lijevom rukom svojom.
And Sampson took hold of the two pillars of the house on which the house stood, and leaned on them, and laid hold of one with his right hand, and the other with his left.
30 Pa onda reèe Samson: neka umrem s Filistejima. I naleže jako, i pade kuæa na knezove i na sav narod koji bješe u njoj; i bi mrtvijeh koje pobi umiruæi više nego onijeh koje pobi za života svojega.
And Sampson said, Let my wife perish with the Philistines: and he bowed himself mightily; and the house fell upon the princes, and upon all the people that were in it: and the dead whom Sampson killed in his death were more than those whom he killed in his life.
31 Poslije doðoše braæa njegova i sav dom oca njegova, i uzeše ga, i vrativši se pogreboše ga izmeðu Saraje i Estaola u grobu Manoja oca njegova. A on bi sudija Izrailju dvadeset godina.
And his brethren and his father's house went down, and they took him; and they went up and buried him between Saraa and Esthaol in the sepulchre of his father Manoe; and he judged Israel twenty years.
