< Judges 13 >
1 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì túnṣe ohun tí ó burú ní ojú Olúwa, Olúwa sì fi wọ́n lé àwọn ará Filistini lọ́wọ́ fún ogójì ọdún.
And the sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
2 Ọkùnrin ará Sora kan wà, orúkọ rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Manoa láti ẹ̀yà Dani. Aya rẹ̀ yàgàn kò sì bímọ.
And there is a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danite, and his name [is] Manoah, his wife [is] barren, and hath not borne;
3 Angẹli Olúwa fi ara han obìnrin náà, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ìwọ yàgàn, ìwọ kò sì tí ì bímọ, ìwọ yóò lóyún, ìwọ yóò sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan.
and a messenger of Jehovah appeareth unto the woman, and saith unto her, 'Lo, I pray thee, thou [art] barren, and hast not borne; when thou hast conceived, then thou hast borne a son.
4 Báyìí rí i dájúdájú pé ìwọ kò mu wáìnì tàbí ọtí líle kankan àti pé ìwọ kò jẹ ohun aláìmọ́ kankan,
And, now, take heed, I pray thee, and do not drink wine, and strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing,
5 nítorí ìwọ yóò lóyún, ìwọ yóò sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan. Má ṣe fi abẹ kan orí rẹ̀, nítorí pé Nasiri, ẹni ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún Ọlọ́run ni ọmọ náà yóò jẹ́ láti ọjọ́ ìbí rẹ̀. Òun ni yóò bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìdáǹdè àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kúrò ní ọwọ́ àwọn ará Filistini.”
for, lo, thou art conceiving and bearing a son, and a razor doth not go up on his head, for a Nazarite to God is the youth from the womb, and he doth begin to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.'
6 Nígbà náà ni obìnrin náà tọ ọkọ rẹ̀ lọ, o sì sọ fún un wí pé, “Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run kan tọ̀ mí wá. Ó jọ angẹli Ọlọ́run, ó ba ènìyàn lẹ́rù gidigidi. Èmi kò béèrè ibi tí ó ti wá, òun náà kò sì sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ fún mi.
And the woman cometh and speaketh to her husband, saying, 'A man of God hath come unto me, and his appearance [is] as the appearance of a messenger of God, very fearful, and I have not asked him whence he [is], and his name he hath not declared to me;
7 Ṣùgbọ́n ó sọ fún mi wí pé, ‘Ìwọ yóò lóyún, ìwọ yóò sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, fún ìdí èyí, má ṣe mu wáìnì tàbí àwọn ọtí líle mìíràn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìwọ má ṣe jẹ ohunkóhun tí í ṣe aláìmọ́, nítorí pé Nasiri Ọlọ́run ni ọmọ náà yóò jẹ́ láti ọjọ́ ìbí rẹ̀ títí di ọjọ́ ikú rẹ̀.’”
and he saith to me, Lo, thou art pregnant, and bearing a son, and now do not drink wine and strong drink, and do not eat any unclean thing, for a Nazarite to God is the youth from the womb till the day of his death.'
8 Nígbà náà ni Manoa gbàdúrà sí Olúwa wí pé, “Háà Olúwa, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, jẹ́ kí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run tí ìwọ rán sí wa padà tọ̀ wá wá láti kọ́ wa bí àwa yóò ti ṣe tọ́ ọmọ tí àwa yóò bí náà.”
And Manoah maketh entreaty unto Jehovah, and saith, 'O, my Lord, the man of God whom Thou didst send, let him come in, I pray thee, again unto us, and direct us what we do to the youth who is born.'
9 Ọlọ́run fetí sí ohùn Manoa, angẹli Ọlọ́run náà tún padà tọ obìnrin náà wá nígbà tí ó wà ní oko ṣùgbọ́n ọkọ rẹ̀ Manoa kò sí ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀.
And God hearkeneth to the voice of Manoah, and the messenger of God cometh again unto the woman, and she [is] sitting in a field, and Manoah her husband is not with her,
10 Nítorí náà ni obìnrin náà ṣe yára lọ sọ fún ọkọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ọkùnrin tí ó fi ara hàn mí ní ọjọ́sí ti tún padà wá.”
and the woman hasteth, and runneth, and declareth to her husband, and saith unto him, 'Lo, he hath appeared unto me — the man who came on [that] day unto me.'
11 Manoa yára dìde, ó sì tẹ̀lé aya rẹ̀, nígbà tí ó dé ọ̀dọ̀ ọkùnrin náà ó ní, “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ ni o bá obìnrin yìí sọ̀rọ̀?” Ọkùnrin náà dáhùn pé, “Èmi ni.”
And Manoah riseth, and goeth after his wife, and cometh unto the man, and saith to him, 'Art thou the man who spake unto the woman?' and he saith, 'I [am].'
12 Manoa bi ọkùnrin náà pé, “Nígbà tí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ bá ṣẹ kí ni yóò jẹ́ ìlànà fún ìgbé ayé àti iṣẹ́ ọmọ náà?”
And Manoah saith, 'Now let thy words come to pass; what is the custom of the youth — and his work?'
13 Angẹli Olúwa náà dáhùn wí pé, “Aya rẹ gbọdọ̀ ṣe gbogbo ohun tí mo ti sọ fún un
And the messenger of Jehovah saith unto Manoah, 'Of all that I said unto the woman let her take heed;
14 kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ ohunkóhun tí ó bá ti inú èso àjàrà jáde wá, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ mu wáìnì tàbí àwọn ọtí líle mìíràn tàbí jẹ ohunkóhun tí ó bá jẹ́ aláìmọ́. Ó ní láti ṣe ohun gbogbo tí mo ti pàṣẹ fún un.”
of anything which cometh out from the wine-vine she doth not eat, and wine and strong drink she doth not drink, and any unclean thing she doth not eat; all that I have commanded her she doth observe.'
15 Manoa sọ fún angẹli Olúwa náà pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ dára dúró títí àwa yóò fi pèsè ọ̀dọ́ ewúrẹ́ kan fún ọ.”
And Manoah saith unto the messenger of Jehovah, 'Let us detain thee, we pray thee, and prepare before thee a kid of the goats.'
16 Angẹli Olúwa náà dá Manoa lóhùn pé, “Bí ẹ̀yin tilẹ̀ dá mi dúró, èmi kì yóò jẹ ọ̀kankan nínú oúnjẹ tí ẹ̀yin yóò pèsè. Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ̀yin bá fẹ́ ẹ pèsè ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun, kí ẹ sì fi rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa.” (Manoa kò mọ̀ pé angẹli Olúwa ní i ṣe.)
And the messenger of Jehovah saith unto Manoah, 'If thou detain me — I do not eat of thy bread; and if thou prepare a burnt-offering — to Jehovah thou dost offer it;' for Manoah hath not known that He [is] a messenger of Jehovah.
17 Manoa sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ angẹli Olúwa náà pé, “Kí ni orúkọ rẹ, kí àwa bá à lè fi ọlá fún ọ nígbà tí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ bá ṣẹ?”
And Manoah saith unto the messenger of Jehovah, 'What [is] thy name? when thy words come to pass, then we have honoured thee.'
18 Ṣùgbọ́n angẹli Olúwa náà dáhùn pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ ń béèrè orúkọ mi? Ìyanu ni, ó kọjá ìmọ̀.”
And the messenger of Jehovah saith to him, 'Why [is] this — thou dost ask for My name? — and it [is] Wonderful.'
19 Lẹ́yìn náà ni Manoa mú ọ̀dọ́ ewúrẹ́, pẹ̀lú ẹbọ ọkà, ó sì fi rú ẹbọ lórí àpáta kan sí Olúwa. Nígbà tí Manoa àti ìyàwó dúró tí wọn ń wò Olúwa ṣe ohun ìyanu kan.
And Manoah taketh the kid of the goats, and the present, and offereth on the rock to Jehovah, and He is doing wonderfully, and Manoah and his wife are looking on,
20 Bí ẹ̀là ahọ́n iná ti là jáde láti ibi pẹpẹ ìrúbọ náà sí ọ̀run, angẹli Olúwa gòkè re ọ̀run láàrín ahọ́n iná náà. Nígbà tí wọ́n rí ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀ yìí, Manoa àti aya rẹ̀ wólẹ̀ wọ́n sì dojúbolẹ̀.
and it cometh to pass, in the going up of the flame from off the altar toward the heavens, that the messenger of Jehovah goeth up in the flame of the altar, and Manoah and his wife are looking on, and they fall on their faces to the earth,
21 Nígbà tí angẹli Olúwa náà kò tún fi ara rẹ̀ han Manoa àti aya rẹ̀ mọ́, Manoa wá mọ̀ pé angẹli Olúwa ni.
and the messenger of Jehovah hath not added again to appear unto Manoah, and unto his wife, then hath Manoah known that He [is] a messenger of Jehovah.
22 Manoa sọ fún aya rẹ̀ pé, “Dájúdájú àwa yóò kú nítorí àwa ti fi ojú rí Ọlọ́run.”
And Manoah saith unto his wife, 'We certainly die, for we have seen God.'
23 Ṣùgbọ́n ìyàwó rẹ̀ dáhùn pé, “Bí Olúwa bá ní èrò àti pa wá kò bá tí gba ẹbọ sísun àti ọrẹ ọkà wa, tàbí fi gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí hàn wá tó sọ nǹkan ìyanu yìí fún wa.”
And his wife saith to him, 'If Jehovah were desirous to put us to death, He had not received from our hands burnt-offering and present, nor shewed us all these things, nor as [at this] time caused us to hear [anything] like this.'
24 Obìnrin náà sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, ó sì sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Samsoni. Ọmọ náà dàgbà Olúwa sì bùkún un.
And the woman beareth a son, and calleth his name Samson, and the youth groweth, and Jehovah doth bless him,
25 Ẹ̀mí Olúwa sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ru sókè nígbà tí ó wà ní Mahane-Dani ní agbede-méjì Sora àti Eṣtaoli.
and the Spirit of Jehovah beginneth to move him in the camp of Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
