Xaakinnada 16
1 Markaasuu Samsoon tegey Gaasa, oo halkaas wuxuu ku arkay dhillo, wuuna u galay.
Samson went to Gaza. There he saw a prostitute and he went to have sex with her that night.
2 Oo waxaa dadkii reer Gaasa lagu yidhi, Samsoon halkanuu yimid. Oo intay hareereeyeen ayay habeenkii oo dhan magaalada iriddeeda ku gaadayeen, oo habeenkaas oo dhanna way aamusnaayeen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Markuu waagu beryo ayaynu dili doonnaa.
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 Oo Samsoonna ilaa habeenbadhkii ayuu jiifay, oo wuxuu kacay habeenbadhkii, oo gacanta ku qabsaday albaabbadii magaalada iriddeeda iyo labadii tiir, markaasuu fujiyey dhammaantood iyo qataarkiiba, oo garbahuu saaray, oo wuxuu la tegey buurta Xebroon ku hor taal dusheeda.
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 Dabadeedna wuxuu jeclaaday naag joogta dooxadii Soreq, oo magaceedana la odhan jiray Deliilaah.
Later he fell in love with a woman named Delilah living in the Sorek Valley.
5 Oo amiirradii reer Falastiin ayaa u yimid iyadii, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Bal sasab isaga oo soo ogow meesha xooggiisa weynu kaga jiro, iyo sida aannu kaga adkaan karno, oo aannu intaannu xidhno u saxariirin karno; oo midkayo kastaaba wuxuu ku siin doonaa kun iyo boqol xabbadood oo lacag ah.
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 Markaasay Deliilaah Samsoon ku tidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye ii sheeg meesha xooggaaga weynu kaaga jiro, oo maxaa lagugu xidhi karaa si laguu saxariiriyo.
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 Oo Samsoonna wuxuu iyadii ku yidhi, Haddii laygu xidho toddoba xadhig oo qoyan oo aan weligood engegin, markaasaan taag yaraanayaa, oo waxaan noqonayaa sida dadka kale.
“If I'm tied up with seven supple bowstrings that haven't dried out, I'll become just as weak,” Samson told her.
8 Markaasay amiirradii reer Falastiin iyadii u keeneen toddoba xadhig oo qoyan oo aan engegin, oo iyana isagii bay ku xidhay xadhkihii.
The Philistine leaders brought her seven supple bowstrings that hadn't dried out, and she tied him up with them.
9 Haddaba waxay haysatay niman gaadmo ah oo joogay qolka hoose. Oo waxay isagii ku tidhi, Samsoonow, reer Falastiin way ku hayaan. Oo xadhkihiina wuxuu u jaray sidii shootali dab la saaray u go'o oo kale. Taas darteed xooggiisii meeluu ku jiro lama ogaan.
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 Markaasay Deliilaah Samsoon ku tidhi, Bal eeg, waad igu majaajilootaye. Oo been baad ii sheegtay, haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, ii sheeg waxa lagugu xidhi karo.
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 Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddii laygu xidho xadhko cuscusub oo aan lagu shaqayn, markaas waan taag yaraanayaa, oo waxaan noqonayaa sida dadka kale.
“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 Markaasay Deliilaah qaadday xadhko cuscusub oo ku xidhay isagii, oo waxay ku tidhi, Samsoonow, reer Falastiin way ku hayaan. Nimankii gaadmadii ahaana waxay ku jireen qolka hoose. Markaasuu xadhkihii gacmihiisa uga jaray sida dunta oo kale.
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 Markaasay Deliilaah Samsoon ku tidhi, Haddaba tan iyo markii hore waad igu majaajilootay, oo been baad ii sheegtay. Ii sheeg waxa lagugu xidhi karo. Kolkaasuu ku yidhi, Toddobada raamood ee madaxayga haddaad dharsameeye duntiis kula tidicdid waan taag yaraanayaa.
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 Markaasay qodob ku qodobtay oo ku tidhi, Samsoonow, reer Falastiin waa ku hayaan. Oo intuu hurdadii ka soo toosay ayuu rujiyey qodobkii iyo looxii dunta, iyo duntii dharsameeyaha.
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 Markaasay isagii ku tidhi, Sidee baad u odhan kartaa, Waan ku jeclahay, adigoo aanu qalbigaagu ila jirin? Bal eeg, saddex jeer baad igu majaajilootay oo iimana aad sheegin meesha xooggaaga weynu ku jiro.
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 Oo markay maalin walba hadalkeedii ku sii cadaadisay, oo ay ku adkaysay, ayaa naftiisii cidhiidhi gashay ilaa dhimasho.
She nagged and complained all the time, pestering him until he wanted to die.
17 Oo markaasuu u sheegay wixii qalbigiisa ku jiray oo dhan oo ku yidhi, Madaxayga mandiil lama marin, waayo, tan iyo markaan dhashay waxaan ahaa Nadiir Ilaah loo soocay. Haddii la ii xiiro, xooggaygu waa iga tegayaa, oo waan taag yaraanayaa, oo waxaan noqonayaa sida dadka kale.
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 Deliilaahna markay ogaatay inuu u wada sheegay wixii qalbigiisa ku jiray oo dhan ayay u cid dirtay oo u yeedhay amiirradii reer Falastiin, oo waxay ku tidhi, Bal markan ii kaalaya, waayo, wixii qalbigiisa ku jiray oo dhan wuu ii sheegay. Markaasay amiirradii reer Falastiin iyadii u yimaadeen oo lacagtiina gacantooday ugu soo qaadeen.
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 Markaasay intay isagii ku seexisay jilbaheedii, ayay nin u yeedhatay, oo waxay ka xiirtay toddobadii raamood ee madaxiisa, dabadeedna waxay bilowday inay saxariiriso, oo xooggiisiina waa ka tegey.
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 Markaasay ku tidhi, Samsoonow, reer Falastiin waa ku hayaan. Kolkaasuu hurdadiisii ka soo toosay, oo wuxuu yidhi, Sidii mararkii kale ayaan bixi doonaa oo isgilgili doonaa. Laakiinse isma uu ogayn in Rabbigu ka tegey isaga.
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 Markaasay reer Falastiin isagii qabteen, indhihiisiina way ka rideen, kolkaasay isagii keeneen Gaasa, oo waxay ku xidheen silsilado naxaas ah; oo isna wax buu ku ridqi jiray xabsiga.
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 Habase yeeshee timihii madaxiisu waxay bilaabeen inay soo baxaan kolkii la xiiray dabadeed.
But his hair began to grow back after it had been shaved off.
23 Markaasay amiirradii reer Falastiin isu soo urursadeen inay allabari weyn u bixiyaan ilaahood oo ahaa Daagoon, iyo inay reyreeyaan; waayo, waxay isku yidhaahdeen, Cadowgeennii Samsoon ahaa waxaa gacanteenna soo geliyey ilaaheen.
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 Oo dadkiina markay isagii arkeen ayay ilaahood ammaaneen; waayo, waxay yidhaahdeen, Ilaaheen wuxuu gacanteenna soo geliyey kii ahaa cadowgeennii iyo kii dalkeenna baabbi'in jiray oo layn jiray kuwo badan oo inaga mid ah.
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 Oo markii qalbigoodii farxay ayay yidhaahdeen, Samsoon u yeedha ha noo cayaaree. Markaasay Samsoon xabsigii uga yeedheen, oo hortooduu ku cayaaray. Kolkaasay waxay isagii taageen tiirarkii dhexdooda.
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 Markaasuu Samsoon ku yidhi yarkii hagayay, Bal i daa aan taabtee tiirarka gurigu ku taagan yahaye, oo aan ku tiirsadee.
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 Oo gurigana waxaa ka buuxay rag iyo dumarba, oo amiirradii reer Falastiin oo dhammuna halkaasay wada joogeen; saqafkana waxaa dul joogay dad ku dhow saddex kun oo rag iyo dumarba leh, oo daawanayay intuu Samsoon cayaarayay.
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 Markaasuu Samsoon Rabbiga baryay, oo yidhi, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, waan ku baryayaaye, i xusuuso, oo waan ku tuugayaaye, markan keliya xoog ii yeel, Ilaahow, si aan reer Falastiin haddiiba uga magdhowdo labadaydii indhood.
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 Markaasuu Samsoon qabsaday labadii tiirdhexaad oo gurigu ku taagnaa, wuuna ku tiirsaday, oo mid wuxuu ku qabsaday gacantiisii midig, kii kalena wuxuu ku qabsaday bidixdiisii.
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 Markaasuu Samsoon yidhi, Aan reer Falastiin la dhinto. Oo wuxuu la foororsaday itaalkiisii oo dhan, gurigiina wuxuu ku dhacay amiirradii iyo dadkii ku jiray oo dhan. Sidaasay kuwuu markuu dhintay laayay uga sii badnaayeen kuwuu laayay markuu noolaa.
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 Markaasay walaalihiis iyo reer aabbihiis oo dhammu soo dhaadhaceen, oo intay qaadeen isagii ayay keeneen oo ku aaseen meel u dhexaysa Sorcaah iyo Eshtaa'ool, taasoo ahayd xabaashii aabbihiis Maanoo'ax. Oo isna wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil xukumayay labaatan sannadood.
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.
