< Judges 16 >

1 Ní ọjọ́ kan Samsoni lọ sí Gasa níbi tí ó ti rí obìnrin panṣágà kan. Ó wọlé tọ̀ ọ́ láti sun ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ ní òru ọjọ́ náà.
And Sampson went to Gaza, and saw there a harlot, and went in to her.
2 Àwọn ará Gasa sì gbọ́ wí pé, “Samsoni wà níbí.” Wọ́n sì yí agbègbè náà ká, wọ́n ń ṣọ́ ọ ní gbogbo òru náà ní ẹnu-bodè ìlú náà. Wọn kò mira ní gbogbo òru náà pé ní “àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́ àwa yóò pa á.”
And it was reported to the Gazites, saying, Sampson is come hither: 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 slay him.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Samsoni sùn níbẹ̀ di àárín ọ̀gànjọ́. Òun sì dìde ní ọ̀gànjọ́, ó fi ọwọ́ di àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn odi ìlú náà mú, pẹ̀lú òpó méjèèjì, ó sì fà wọ́n tu, pẹ̀lú ìdábùú àti ohun gbogbo tí ó wà lára rẹ̀. Ó gbé wọn lé èjìká rẹ̀ òun sì gbé wọn lọ sí orí òkè tí ó kọjú sí Hebroni.
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 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà díẹ̀, ó sì ní ìfẹ́ obìnrin kan ní àfonífojì Soreki, orúkọ ẹni tí í ṣe Dẹlila.
And it came to pass after this that he loved a woman in Alsorech, and her name [was] Dalida.
5 Àwọn ìjòyè Filistini sì lọ bá obìnrin náà, wọ́n sọ fún un wí pé, “Bí ìwọ bá le tàn án kí òun sì fi àṣírí agbára rẹ̀ hàn ọ́, àti bí àwa ó ti lè borí rẹ̀, kí àwa sì dè é kí àwa sì ṣẹ́gun rẹ̀. Ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan nínú wa yóò sì fún ọ ní ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀fà fàdákà.”
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 thee each eleven hundred [pieces] of silver.
6 Torí náà Dẹlila sọ fún Samsoni pé, “Sọ àṣírí agbára ńlá rẹ fún mi àti bí wọ́n ti le dè ọ́, àti bí wọ́n ṣe lè borí rẹ.”
And Dalida said to Sampson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein [is] thy great strength, and wherewith thou shalt be bound that thou mayest be humbled.
7 Samsoni dá a lóhùn wí pé, “Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá fi okùn tútù méje tí ẹnìkan kò sá gbẹ dè mí, èmi yóò di aláìlágbára bí i gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin yòókù.”
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 Àwọn olóyè Filistini sì mú okùn tútù méje tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò sá gbẹ wá fún Dẹlila òun sì fi wọ́n dè é.
And the princess of the Philistines brought to her seven moist cords that had not been spoiled, and she bound him with them.
9 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn tí sá pamọ́ sínú yàrá, òun pè pé, “Samsoni àwọn Filistini ti dé láti mú ọ.” Ṣùgbọ́n òun já àwọn okùn náà bí òwú ti í já nígbà tí ó bá wà lẹ́bàá iná. Torí náà wọn kò mọ àṣírí agbára rẹ̀.
And the liers in wait remained with her in the chamber; and she said to him, the Philistines [are] upon thee, 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 Dẹlila sì sọ fún Samsoni pé, ìwọ ti tàn mí; o sì purọ́ fún mi. Wá báyìí kí o sì sọ bí a ti ṣe le dè ọ́.
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, thou hast cheated me, and told me lies; now then tell me wherewith thou shalt be bound.
11 Òun dáhùn pé, “Bí wọ́n bá lè fi okùn tuntun tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò tí ì lò rí dì mí dáradára, èmi yóò di aláìlágbára, èmi yóò sì dàbí àwọn ọkùnrin yòókù.”
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 Dẹlila sì mú àwọn okùn tuntun, ó fi wọ́n dì í. Nígbà tí àwọn ọkùnrin Filistini ti fi ara pamọ́ sínú yàrá, òun kígbe sí i pé, “Samsoni àwọn Filistini dé láti mú ọ,” òun sì já okùn náà kúrò ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ bí òwú.
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 thee, Sampson: and he broke them off his arms like a thread.
13 Dẹlila sì tún sọ fún Samsoni pé, “Títí di ìsinsin yìí ìwọ sì ń tún tàn mí, o sì tún purọ́ fún mi. Sọ fún mi ọ̀nà tí wọ́n fi le dè ọ́.” Samsoni dá a lóhùn pé, “Bí ìwọ bá hun ìdí irun méjèèje tí ó wà ní orí mi pẹ̀lú okùn, tí ó sì le dáradára kí o sì fi ẹ̀mú mú un mọ́lẹ̀, èmi yóò di aláìlágbára bí àwọn ọkùnrin yòókù.” Nígbà tí òun ti sùn, Dẹlila hun àwọn ìdí irun méjèèje tí ó wà ní orí rẹ̀,
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, thou hast deceived me, and told me lies; tell me, I intreat thee, wherewith thou mayest be bound: and he said to her, If thou shouldest weave the seven locks of my head with the web, and shouldest fasten them with the pin into the wall, then shall I be weak as another man.
14 ó sì fi ìhunṣọ dè wọ́n. Ó sì tún pè é pé, “Samsoni àwọn Filistini dé láti mú ọ.” Òun sì jí ní ojú oorun, ó sì fa ìdè ìhunṣọ náà tu pẹ̀lú ohun gbogbo tí wọ́n fi kàn án mọ́lẹ̀.
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 thee, Sampson: and he awoke out of his sleep, and carried away the pin of the web out of the wall.
15 Dẹlila sì sọ fún un pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi wí pé, ‘Èmi fẹ́ràn rẹ,’ nígbà tí ìwọ kò fi ọkàn tán mi. Èyí ni ìgbà kẹta tí ìwọ ti tàn mí jẹ, tí ìwọ kò sì sọ àṣírí ibi tí agbára ńlá rẹ gbé wà fún mi.”
And Dalida said to Sampson, How sayest thou, I love thee, when thy heart is not with me? this third time thou hast deceived me, and hast not told me wherein [is] thy great strength.
16 Ó sì ṣe nígbà tí ó fi ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ rọ̀ ọ́ ní ojoojúmọ́ pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ títí dé bi pé ó sú dé òpin ẹ̀mí rẹ̀.
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 Òun sì sọ ohun gbogbo tí ó wà ní ọkàn rẹ̀ fún un. Ó ní, “Abẹ kò tí ì kan orí mi rí, nítorí pé Nasiri, ẹni ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún Ọlọ́run ni mo jẹ́ láti ìgbà ìbí mi wá. Bí a bá fá irun orí mi, agbára mi yóò fi mí sílẹ̀, èmi yóò sì di aláìlágbára bí àwọn ọkùnrin yòókù.”
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 Nígbà tí Dẹlila rí i pé ó ti sọ ohun gbogbo fún òun tan, Dẹlila ránṣẹ́ sí àwọn ìjòyè Filistini pé, “Ẹ wá lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, ó ti sọ ohun gbogbo fún mi.” Torí náà àwọn olóyè Filistini padà, wọ́n sì mú owó ìpinnu náà lọ́wọ́.
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 Òun sì mú kí Samsoni sùn lórí itan rẹ̀, òun sì pe ọkùnrin kan láti fá àwọn ìdì irun orí rẹ̀ méjèèje, òun sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ṣẹ́gun rẹ̀. Agbára rẹ̀ sì fi í sílẹ̀ lọ.
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 Òun pè é wí pé, “Samsoni àwọn Filistini dé láti mú ọ.” Òun jí ní ojú oorun rẹ̀, ó sì sọ pé, “Èmi yóò jáde lọ bí í ti àtẹ̀yìnwá, kí èmi sì gba ara mi, kí n di òmìnira.” Ṣùgbọ́n òun kò mọ̀ pé Olúwa ti fi òun sílẹ̀.
And Dalida said, The Philistines [are] upon thee, 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 Nígbà náà ni àwọn Filistini mú un, wọ́n yọ ojú rẹ̀ méjèèjì wọ́n sì mú un lọ sí Gasa. Wọ́n fi ṣẹ́kẹ́ṣẹkẹ̀ idẹ dè é, wọ́n sì fi sí ibi iṣẹ́ ọlọ lílọ̀ nínú ilé túbú.
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 Ṣùgbọ́n irun orí rẹ̀ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í tún hù lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti fá a.
And the hair of his head began to grow as before it was shaven.
23 Àwọn ìjòyè, àwọn ará Filistini sì péjọpọ̀ láti ṣe ìrúbọ ńlá sí Dagoni ọlọ́run wọn àti láti ṣe ayẹyẹ wọ́n wí pé, ọlọ́run wa ti fi Samsoni ọ̀tá wa lé wa lọ́wọ́.
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 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn rí Samsoni wọ́n yin ọlọ́run wọn wí pé, “Ọlọ́run wa ti fi ọ̀tá wa lé wa lọ́wọ́. Àní ẹni tí ó ti run ilẹ̀ wa ẹni tí ó ti pa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ nínú wa.”
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 Nígbà tí inú wọn dùn gidigidi tí wọ́n ń yọ ayọ̀ ńlá, wọ́n pariwo pé, ẹ mú Samsoni wá kí ó wá dá wa lára yá. Wọ́n sì pe Samsoni jáde láti ọgbà ẹ̀wọ̀n náà, òun sì ń ṣeré fún wọn. Nígbà tí wọ́n mú un dúró láàrín àwọn òpó.
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 smote him with the palms of their hands, and set him between the pillars.
26 Samsoni sọ fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ tí ó di ọwọ́ rẹ̀ mú pé, “Ẹ fi mí si ibi tí ọwọ́ mi yóò ti le tó àwọn òpó tí ó gbé tẹmpili dúró mú, kí èmi lè fẹ̀yìn tì wọ́n.”
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 Ní àsìkò náà, tẹmpili yìí kún fún àwọn ọkùnrin àti obìnrin; gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè Filistini wà níbẹ̀, ní òkè ilé náà, níbi tí ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta àwọn ọkùnrin àti obìnrin tí ń wòran Samsoni bí òun ti ń ṣeré.
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 Nígbà náà ni Samsoni ké pe Olúwa wí pé, “Olúwa Olódùmarè, rántí mi. Háà Ọlọ́run jọ̀wọ́ fi agbára fún mi lẹ́ẹ̀kan yìí sí i, kí èmi lè gbẹ̀san lára àwọn Filistini nítorí àwọn ojú mi méjèèjì.”
And Sampson wept before the Lord, and said, O Lord, my lord, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, O God, yet this once, and I will requite one recompense to the Philistines for my two eyes.
29 Samsoni sì na ọwọ́ mú àwọn òpó méjèèjì tí ó wà láàrín gbùngbùn, orí àwọn tí tẹmpili náà dúró lé, ó fi ọwọ́ ọ̀tún mú ọ̀kan àti ọwọ́ òsì mú èkejì, ó fi ara tì wọ́n,
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 Samsoni sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí èmi kú pẹ̀lú àwọn Filistini!” Òun sì fi agbára ńlá tì wọ́n, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ilé náà wó lu àwọn ìjòyè àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀. Báyìí ni ó pa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ nígbà ikú rẹ̀ ju ìgbà ayé rẹ̀ lọ.
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 slew in his death were more than those whom he slew in his life.
31 Nígbà náà ni àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ìdílé baba rẹ̀ ní àpapọ̀ gòkè lọ wọ́n sì gbé e, wọ́n gbé e padà wá, wọ́n sì sin ín sí agbede-méjì Sora àti Eṣtaoli, sínú ibojì Manoa baba rẹ̀. Òun ti ṣe àkóso Israẹli ní ogún ọdún.
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.
