< Waamuzi 14 >
1 Samsoni akashuka kwenda Timna, na huko akaona mwanamke, mmojawapo wa binti za Wafilisti. Aliporudi, akamwambia baba yake na mama yake,
Therfor Sampson yede doun in to Thannatha, and he siy there a womman of `the douytris of Filisteis;
2 'Nimemwona mwanamke huko Timna, mmojawapo wa binti za Wafilisti. Sasa mkanichukulie awe mke wangu.
and he stiede, and telde to his fadir and `to his modir, and seide, Y siy a womman in Thannatha of the `douytris of Filistees, and Y biseche, that ye take hir a wijf to me.
3 Baba yake na mama yake wakamwambia, “Je, hakuna mwanamke kati ya binti za ndugu zako, au kati ya watu wetu wote? Je! Utachukua mke kutoka kwa Wafilisti wasiotahiriwa?” Samsoni akamwambia baba yake, “Nichukulie kwa ajili yangu, kwa maana wakati nilipomwangalia, alinipendeza.'
To whom his fadir and modir seiden, Whether no womman is among the douytris of thi britheren and in al my puple, for thou wolt take a wijf of Filisteis, that ben vncircumcidid? And Sampson seide to his fadir, Take thou this wijf to me, for sche pleside myn iyen.
4 Lakini baba yake na mama yake hawakujua kwamba suala hili lilikuja kutoka kwa Bwana, kwa maana alitaka kutengeneza mgogoro na Wafilisti (kwa wakati huo Wafilisti walikuwa wakitawala Israeli).
Forsothe his fadir and modir wisten not, that the thing was don of the Lord; and that he souyte occasiouns ayens Filisteis; for in that tyme Filisteis weren lordis of Israel.
5 Basi Samsoni akaenda Timna pamoja na baba yake na mama yake; nao wakafika kwenye mashamba ya mizabibu ya Timna. Na, tazama, kuna simba mdogo wa alikuja na alikuwa akiunguruma.
Therfor Sampson yede doun with his fadir and modir in to Thannatha; and whanne thei hadden come to the vyneris of the citee, a fers and rorynge `whelp of a lioun apperide, and ran to Sampson.
6 Roho wa Bwana ghafla akaja juu yake, naye akamrarua simba kwa urahisi kama ambavyo angeweza kumrarua mbuzi mdogo, naye hakuwa na kitu mkononi mwake. Lakini hakuwaambia baba au mama yake kile alichofanya.
Forsothe the spirit of the Lord felde in to Sampson, and he to-rente the lioun, as if he `to-rendide a kide `in to gobetis, and outerli he hadde no thing in the hond; and he nolde schewe this to the fadir and modir.
7 Alikwenda na kuzungumza na mwanamke, na alipopomtazama, alimpendeza Samsoni.
And he yede doun, and spak to the womman, that pleside hise iyen.
8 Siku chache baadaye aliporudi kumwoa, akageuka na kutafuta mzoga wa simba. Na, tazama, kulikuwa na kundi la nyuki na asali katika kile kilichobaki katika mwili wa simba.
And aftir summe daies he turnede ayen to take hir `in to matrimonye; and he `bowide awey to se the `careyn of the lioun; and lo! a gaderyng of bees was in the `mouth of the lioun, and `a coomb of hony.
9 Akaweka asali mikononi mwake na akaenda, akala huku akienda. Alipokuja kwa baba yake na mama yake, akawapa, nao wakala. Lakini hakuwaambia kuwa amechukua asali nje ya kile kilichobaki kwenye mwili wa simba.
And whanne he hadde take it in hondis, he eet in the weie; and he cam to his fadir and modir, and yaf part `to hem, and thei eeten; netheles he nolde schewe to hem, that he hadde take hony of the `mouth of the lioun.
10 Baba yake Samsoni akaenda chini alipokuwa mwanamke, na Samsoni akafanya sikukuu huko, kwa maana hii ilikuwa desturi ya vijana.
And so his fadir yede doun to the womman, and made a feeste to his sone Sampson; for yonge men weren wont to do so.
11 Mara tu ndugu zake walipomwona, walimletea rafiki zao thelathini kuwa pamoja naye.
Therfor whanne the citeseyns of that place hadden seyn hym, thei yauen to hym thretti felowis, whiche schulen be with hym.
12 Samsoni akawaambia, Hebu nawaambieni kitendawili. Ikiwa mmoja wenu anaweza kuipata na kuniambia jibu wakati wa siku saba za sikukuu, nitatoa nguo za kitani thelathini na seti ya nguo thelathini.
To whiche Sampson spak, Y schal putte forth to you a probleme, `that is, a douyteful word and priuy, and if ye `asoilen it to me with ynne seuen daies of the feeste, Y schal yyue to you thretti lynnun clothis, and cootis `of the same noumbre; sotheli if ye moun not soyle,
13 Lakini ikiwa hamuwezi kuniambia jibu, basi utanipa nguo za kitani thelathini na seti za nguo thelathini. ' Wakamwambia, Utuambie kitendawili chako, ili tukisikie.
ye schulen yyue to me thretti lynnun clothis, and cootis `of the same noumbre. Whiche answeriden to hym, Sette forth the probleme, that we here it.
14 Akawaambia, 'Kati ya mtu aliyekula alikuwa kitu cha kula; nje ya nguvu ilikuwa kitu tamu. Lakini wageni wake hawakuweza kupata jibu katika siku tatu.
And he seide to hem, Mete yede out of the etere, and swetnesse yede out of the stronge. And bi thre daies thei myyten not assoile the `proposicioun, that is, the resoun set forth.
15 Siku ya nne wakamwambia mkewe Samsoni, 'Mdanganye mume wako ili atuambie jibu la kitendawili, au tutakuchoma moto wewe na nyumba ya baba yako. Je, umetualika hapa ili kutufanya maskini? '
And whanne the seuenthe dai cam, thei seiden to `the wijf of Sampson, Glose thin hosebonde, and counseile hym, that he schewe to thee what the probleme signyfieth. That if thou nylt do, we schulen brenne thee and `the hous of thi fadir. Whether herfor ye clepiden vs to weddyngis, that ye schulden robbe vs?
16 Mke wa Samsoni alianza kulia mbele yake; Akasema, 'Yote unayoyafanya ni kunichukia! Hunipendi. Umesema kitendawili kwa baadhi ya watu wangu, lakini hujawaambia jibu. ' Samsoni akamwambia, 'Angalia hapa, kama sijawaambia baba yangu au mama yangu, nikuambie wewe?'
And sche schedde teerys at Sampson, and pleynede, and seide, Thou hatist me, and louest not, therfor thou nylt expowne to me the probleme, which thou settidist forth to the sones of my puple. And he answeride, Y nolde seie to my fadir and modir, and schal Y mow schewe to thee?
17 Alilia kwa siku saba ambazosikukuu yao iliendelea. Siku ya saba alimwambia jibu kwa sababu alimlazimisha sana. Akawaambia jibu jamaa zake.
Therfor bi seuene dayes of the feest sche wepte at hym; at the laste `he expownede in the seuenthe dai, whanne sche was diseseful to hym. And anoon sche telde to hir citeseyns.
18 Na watu wa mji wakamwambia, siku ya saba kabla ya jua kuzama, 'Ni nini kilicho bora zaidi kuliko asali? Ni kitu gani chenye nguvu kuliko simba? ' Samsoni akawaambia, 'Ikiwa hamkulima na ng'ombe wangu, hamtapata jibu la kitendawili changu.'
And thei seiden to hym in the seuenthe dai bifor the goyng doun of the sunne, What is swettere than hony, and what is strengere than a lioun? And he seide to hem, If ye hadden not erid in my cow calf, `that is, my wijf, ye hadden not founde my proposicioun.
19 Kisha Roho wa Bwana akaja kwa Samsoni kwa nguvu. Samsoni akashuka kwenda Ashkeloni na kuuawa watu thelathini kati ya watu hao. Akachukua mateka yao, na akawapa seti ya nguo kwa wale waliomjibu kitendawili chake. Alikasirika akaenda nyumbani kwa baba yake.
Therfor the spirit of the Lord felde in to hym; and he yede doun to Ascalon, and killyde there thretti men, whose clothis he took awey, and he yaf to hem that soiliden the probleme; and he was ful wrooth, and stiede in to `the hows of his fadir.
20 Na mke wake akachukuliwa na rafiki yake wa karibu.
Forsothe his wijf took an hosebonde, oon of the frendis and keperis `of hir.
