1 Potom otide Samson u Gazu, i onde vide jednu ženu kurvu, i uđe k njoj.
1 Samson went to Gaza, and saw there a prostitute, and went in to her.
2 I ljudima u Gazi bi kazano: Dođe Samson ovamo. I opkoliše i vrebaše ga celu noć na vratima gradskim; i stajahu u potaji celu noć govoreći: Dok svane, ubićemo ga.
2 The Gazites were told, “Samson is here!” They surrounded him and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, “Wait until morning light; then we will kill him.”
3 Ali Samson spavav do ponoći usta u ponoći, i ščepa vrata gradska s oba dovratka i iščupa ih s prevornicom zajedno, i metnu ih na ramena i odnese na vrh gore koja je prema Hevronu.
3 Samson lay until midnight, then arose at midnight and took hold of the doors of the gate of the city, with the two posts, and plucked them up, bar and all, and put them on his shoulders and carried them up to the top of the mountain that is before Hebron.
4 Posle toga zamilova devojku na potoku Soriku, kojoj beše ime Dalida.
4 It came to pass afterward that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.
5 I dođoše k njoj knezovi filistejski i rekoše joj: Prevari ga i iskušaj gde mu stoji velika snaga i kako bi smo mu dosadili da ga svežemo i savladamo; a mi ćemo ti dati svaki po hiljadu i sto srebrnika.
5 The lords of the Philistines came up to her and said to her, “Entice him, and see in which his great strength lies, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and we will each give you eleven hundred pieces of silver.”
6 I Dalida reče Samsonu: Hajde kaži mi gde stoji tvoja velika snaga i čim bi se mogao svezati i savladati.
6 Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell me where your great strength lies, and what you might be bound to afflict you.”
7 A Samson joj reče: Da me svežu u sedam gužava sirovih neosušenih, onda bih izgubio snagu i bio kao i drugi čovek.
7 Samson said to her, “If they bind me with seven green cords that were never dried, then shall I become weak, and be as another man.”
8 I donesoše joj knezovi filistejski sedam gužava sirovih, još neosušenih, i ona ga sveza njima.
8 Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green cords which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.
9 A kod nje beše zaseda u sobi; i ona mu reče: Eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on pokida gužve, kao što se kida konac od kudelje kad oseti vatru; i ne dozna se za snagu njegovu.
9 Now she had an ambush waiting in the inner room. She said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” He broke the cords as a flax thread is broken when it touches the fire. So his strength was not known.
10 Potom reče Dalida Samsonu: Gle, prevario si me, i slagao si mi; nego hajde kaži mi čim bi se mogao svezati.
10 Delilah said to Samson, “Behold, you have mocked me, and told me lies. Now please tell me how you might be bound.”
11 A on joj reče: Da me dobro svežu novim užima kojima nije ništa rađeno, tada bih izgubio snagu i bio bih kao drugi čovek.
11 He said to her, “If they only bind me with new ropes with which no work has been done, then I will become weak, and be as another man.”
12 I Dalida uze nova uža, i sveza ga njima, pak mu reče: Eto Filisteji na te Samsone! A zaseda beše u sobi. A on raskide s ruku uža kao konac.
12 So Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them, then said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” The ambush was waiting in the inner room. He broke them off his arms like a thread.
13 Tada reče Dalida Samsonu: Jednako me varaš i lažeš mi; kaži mi čim bi se mogao svezati? A on joj reče: Da sedam pramena kose na glavi mojoj priviješ na vratilo.
13 Delilah said to Samson, “Until now, you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell me with what you might be bound.” He said to her, “If you weave the seven locks of my head with the fabric on the loom.”
14 I ona zaglavivši vratilo kocem, reče: Evo Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on se probudi od sna, i istrže kolac i osnovu i vratilo.
14 She fastened it with the pin, and said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” He awakened out of his sleep, and plucked away the pin of the beam and the fabric.
15 Opet mu ona reče: Kako možeš govoriti: Ljubim te, kad srce tvoje nije kod mene? Već si me tri puta prevario ne hoteći mi kazati gde ti je velika snaga.
15 She said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies.”
16 I ona mu dosađivaše svojim rečima svaki dan i navaljivaše na nj, i duša mu prenemože da umre.
16 When she pressed him daily with her words and urged him, his soul was troubled to death.
17 Te joj otvori celo srce svoje, i reče joj: Britva nije nikad prešla preko glave moje, jer sam nazirej Božji od utrobe matere svoje; da se obrijem, ostavila bi me snaga moja i oslabio bih, i bio bih kao svaki čovek
17 He told her all his heart and said to her, “No razor has ever come on my head; for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaved, then my strength will go from me and I will become weak, and be like any other man.”
18 A Dalida videći da joj je otvorio celo srce svoje, posla i pozva knezove filistejske poručivši im: Hodite sada, jer mi je otvorio celo srce svoje. Tada dođoše knezovi filistejski k njoj i donesoše novce u rukama svojim.
18 When Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, “Come up this once, for he has told me all his heart.” Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought the money in their hand.
19 A ona ga uspava na krilu svom, i dozva čoveka te mu obrija sedam pramena kose s glave, i ona ga prva svlada kad ga ostavi snaga njegova.
19 She made him sleep on her knees; and she called for a man and shaved off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.
20 I ona reče: Eto Filisteja na te, Samsone! A on probudivši se od sna reče: Izaći ću kao i pre i oteću se; jer ne znaše da je Gospod odstupio od njega.
20 She said, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” He awoke out of his sleep, and said, “I will go out as at other times, and shake myself free.” But he didn’t know that Yahweh had departed from him.
21 Tada ga uhvatiše Filisteji, i iskopaše mu oči, i odvedoše ga u Gazu i okovaše ga u dvoje verige bronzane; i meljaše u tamnici.
21 The Philistines laid hold on him and put out his eyes; and they brought him down to Gaza and bound him with fetters of bronze; and he ground at the mill in the prison.
22 A kosa na glavi njegovoj poče rasti kao što je bila kad ga obrijaše.
22 However, the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaved.
23 I knezovi filistejski skupiše se da prinesu veliku žrtvu Dagonu bogu svom, i da se provesele, pa rekoše: Predade nam bog naš u ruke naše Samsona neprijatelja našeg.
23 The lords of the Philistines gathered together to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice; for they said, “Our god has delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.”
24 Takođe i narod videvši ga hvaljaše boga svog govoreći: Predade nam bog naš u ruke naše neprijatelja našeg i zatirača zemlje naše i koji pobi tolike između nas.
24 When the people saw him, they praised their god; for they said, “Our god has delivered our enemy and the destroyer of our country, who has slain many of us, into our hand.”
25 I kad se razveseli srce njihovo rekoše: Zovite Samsona da nam igra. I dozvaše Samsona iz tamnice da im igra, i namestiše ga među dva stuba.
25 When their hearts were merry, they said, “Call for Samson, that he may entertain us.” They called for Samson out of the prison; and he performed before them. They set him between the pillars;
26 Tada Samson reče momku koji ga držaše za ruku: Pusti me, da opipam stubove na kojima stoji kuća, da se naslonim na njih.
26 and Samson said to the boy who held him by the hand, “Allow me to feel the pillars on which the house rests, that I may lean on them.”
27 A kuća beše puna ljudi i žena i svi knezovi filistejski behu onde; i na krovu beše oko tri hiljade ljudi i žena, koji gledahu kako Samson igra.
27 Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were on the roof about three thousand men and women, who saw while Samson performed.
28 Tada Samson zavapi ka Gospodu i reče: Gospode, Gospode! Opomeni me se, molim te, i ukrepi me, molim te, samo sada, o Bože! Da se osvetim jedanput Filistejima za oba oka svoja.
28 Samson called to Yahweh, and said, “Lord Yahweh, remember me, please, and strengthen me, please, only this once, God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.”
29 I zagrli Samson dva stuba srednja, na kojima stajaše kuća, i nasloni se na njih, na jedan desnom a na drugi levom rukom svojom.
29 Samson took hold of the two middle pillars on which the house rested and leaned on them, the one with his right hand and the other with his left.
30 Pa onda reče Samson: Neka umrem s Filistejima. I naleže jako, i pade kuća na knezove i na sav narod koji beše u njoj; i bi mrtvih koje pobi umirući više nego onih koje pobi za života svog.
30 Samson said, “Let me die with the Philistines!” He bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell on the lords, and on all the people who were in it. So the dead that he killed at his death were more than those who he killed in his life.
31 Posle dođoše braća njegova i sav dom oca njegovog, i uzeše ga, i vrativši se pogreboše ga između Saraje i Estola u grobu Manoja oca njegovog. A on bi sudija Izrailju dvadeset godina.
31 Then his brothers and all the house of his father came down and took him, and brought him up and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the burial site of Manoah his father. He judged Israel twenty years.
