Atemmufo 15
1 Akyiri no, awitwabere mu no, Samson faa abirekyi ba sɛ ɔde rekɔkyɛ ne yere. Ɔpɛɛ sɛ anka ɔkɔda ne nkyɛn, nanso ɔbea no agya amma no mu kwan.
Emva kwalokho, ngesikhathi sokuvuna ingqoloyi, uSamsoni wathatha izinyane lembuzi wethekelela umkakhe. Wathi, “Ngiya endlini yomkami.” Kodwa uyisezala wamalela ukuba angene.
2 Ɔbea no agya no kae se, “Medwenee sɛ na wotan no, ɛno nti, mede no ama ɔbarima a na odi wʼanan ase wɔ mo ayeforohyia mu no. Nanso hwɛ ne nuabea ho yɛ fɛ sen no. Ware no si anan.”
Wathi, “Ngangileqiniso lokuthi wawusumzonda kakhulu, ngasengimendisela kumkhaphi wakho. Umnawakhe kamuhle kulaye na? Thatha yena.”
3 Samson kae se, “Saa bere yi, obiara rentumi mmɔ me sobo wɔ biribiara a merebɛyɛ mo Filistifo ho.”
USamsoni wathi kubo, “Khathesi sengilelungelo lokuphindisela okubi kumaFilistiya. Ngizawalimaza impela.”
4 Afei ofii hɔ kɔe, kɔkyeree sakraman ahaasa. Ɔkyekyeree sakraman abien abien dua bɔɔ ho, na ɔkyekyeree ogyatɛn fam dua abien biara ho.
Ngakho wasuka wabamba amakhanka angamakhulu amathathu wawabophanisa imisila ngambilimbili. Wasebophela uluthi lomlilo emisileni yonke ayeyibophanisile,
5 Ɔsɔɔ ogyatɛn no na ɔmaa sakraman no tuu mmirika faa Filistifo mfuw mu. Ɔhyew wɔn awi nyinaa pasaa; nea wɔahyehyɛ wɔ san so ne nea wontwae nyinaa. Ɔsɛee wɔn bobeturo ne ngonnua nyinaa.
walumathisa izinti zomlilo wawayekela amakhanka angena emabeleni amiyo amaFilistiya. Watshisa ayesezizeni lamabele amiyo, lezivini kanye lezivande zama-oliva.
6 Filistifo no bisae se, “Na hena na ɔyɛɛ saa amumɔyɛ yi?” Wɔn ara buae se, “Ɛyɛ Samson efisɛ nʼase barima a ofi Timna de Samson yere ama ɔbarima a na odi ne nan ase wɔ wɔn ayeforohyia mu no aware.” Enti Filistifo no kɔkyeree ɔbea no ne nʼagya hyew wɔn ma wowuwui.
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.
7 Samson suae se, “Esiane nea moayɛ yi nti, metua mo so ka na merennyae ara da kosi sɛ me bo bɛtɔ me yam!”
USamsoni wathi kubo, “Njengoba selenze lokhu, angiyikukhawula engikwenzayo ngize ngiphindisele kini.”
8 Enti ɔde abufuw kɔtow hyɛɛ Filistifo no so kunkum wɔn mu bebree. Afei, ɔkɔtenaa ɔbodan bi a ɛwɔ ɔbotan bi mu wɔ Etam.
Wabahlasela kakubi wabulala abanengi babo. Emva kwalokho wahamba wayahlala ebhalwini edwaleni lase-Ethamu.
9 Filistifo no nso kyeree nsraban wɔ Yuda sɛee Lehi kurow no de tuaa ne so ka.
AmaFilistiya ahamba ayamisa koJuda, asabalala eduze leLehi.
10 Yuda mmarima bisaa Filistifo no se, “Adɛn nti na motow hyɛ yɛn so saa?” Filistifo no buae se, “Yɛaba sɛ yɛrebɛkyere Samson. Nea ɔyɛɛ yɛn no, yɛrebetua no so ka.”
Abantu bakoJuda babuza bathi, “Lizesihlaselelani na?” Bona baphendula bathi, “Silande ukuzabopha uSamsoni, senze kuye lokhu akwenzayo kithi.”
11 Enti Yudafo mpensa kɔɔ ɔbodan a ɛwɔ ɔbotan mu wɔ Etam no sɛ wɔrekɔkyere Samson. Wɔka kyerɛɛ Samson sɛ, “Wunnim sɛ Filistifo na wodi yɛn so? Dɛn na woreyɛ yɛn yi?” Nanso Samson buae wɔn se, “Nea wɔyɛɛ me no na mituaa wɔn so ka.”
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.”
12 Nanso Yuda mmarima ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛaba sɛ yɛrebɛkyekyere wo na yɛde wo akɔma Filistifo.” Samson kae se, “Monhyɛ me bɔ sɛ mo ankasa de, morenkum me.”
Bathi kuye, “Thina silande ukuzakubopha sikunikele kuwo.” USamsoni wathi, “Fungani kimi ukuthi kaliyikungibulala lina ngokwenu.”
13 Wobuae se, “Yɛbɛkyekyere wo de wo akɔma Filistifo. Yɛrenkum wo.” Enti wɔde hama foforo abien guu ne so kyekyeree no papee, twee no fii ɔbotan no mu.
Baphendula bathi, “Siyavuma. Thina sizakubopha nje kuphela besesikunikela kuwo. Kasiyikukubulala.” Ngakho bambopha ngemichilo emibili emitsha, basebesuka laye edwaleni.
14 Samson duu Lehi no, Filistifo no bɔɔ ose. Na Awurade Honhom tumi mu ahoɔden baa Samson so. Ɔtetew ahama a egu ne nsa so no mu te sɛ nhoma nketewa bi a ogya aka, maa ne nyinaa tetew fii ne nsakɔn guu fam.
Esebanga eLehi, amaFilistiya amhlangabeza eklabalala. UMoya kaThixo wehlela phezu kwakhe ngamandla. Imichilo ezingalweni zakhe yaba njengesikusha esitshileyo, izibopho zawa ezandleni zakhe.
15 Afei, ɔmaa afurum abogye bi a na ɛda fam so de kunkum Filistifo apem.
Esethole ithambo lomhlathi kababhemi elitsha, walithatha wabulala ngalo abantu abayinkulungwane.
16 Na Samson kae se, “Mede afurum abogye, Ahɔre wɔn sɛ siw! Mede afurum abogye, akunkum mmarima apem!”
USamsoni wasesithi, “Ngethambo lomhlathi kababhemi, ngibenze baba ngobabhemi. Ngethambo lomhlathi kababhemi ngibulele amadoda ayinkulungwane.”
17 Na owiee kasa no, ɔtow abogye no kyenee. Na wɔtoo beae hɔ din Ramat-Lehi a ase ne Abogye bepɔw.
Eseqedile ukukhuluma walilahla ithambo lomhlathi; indawo leyo yasithiwa yiRamathi-Lehi.
18 Ɛbaa sɛ osukɔm dee Samson yiye nti osu frɛɛ Awurade sɛ, “Wonam wʼakoa ahoɔden so adi saa nkonim kɛse yi. Na enti osukɔm nkum me, na minwu wɔ saa abosonsomfo yi nsam ana?”
Ngenxa yokuthi wayesome kakhulu, wakhala kuThixo wathi, “Uyiphile inceku yakho ukunqoba okukhulu. Pho sekumele ngibulawe yikoma yini njalo ngiwele ezandleni zabangasokanga na?”
19 Enti Awurade maa nsu pue fii tokuru bi mu wɔ Lehi asase so baabi. Na Samson nom bi no, ne ho san no. Na ɔtoo hɔ din se En-Hakore, na ɛda so wɔ Lehi de besi nnɛ.
UNkulunkulu wasevula umthonjana eLehi, kwaphuma amanzi kuwo. USamsoni esenathile, amandla akhe aphenduka, wavuseleleka. Ngakho umthombo lowo wathiwa yi-Eni Hakhore, njalo ulokhu ukhona eLehi.
20 Samson yɛɛ Israel so temmufo mfe aduonu; bere a na Filistifo di Israel asase so no.
USamsoni wakhokhela abako-Israyeli iminyaka engamatshumi amabili ngesikhathi samaFilistiya.
