WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Un día Sansón fue a Timná, donde le llamó la atención una joven filistea.
1 Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines.
2 Volvió a su casa y les dijo a su padre y a su madre: “Una mujer filistea en Timná me ha llamado la atención. Tráiganmela porque quiero casarme con ella”.
2 He came up, and told his father and his mother, saying, “I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines. Now therefore get her for me as my wife.”
3 Pero su padre y su madre le respondieron: “¿No puedes encontrar una joven de nuestra tribu o de nuestro propio pueblo? ¿Tienes que ir donde los filisteos paganos para conseguir una esposa?” Pero Sansón le dijo a su padre: “Sólo búscamela, ella es la que me gusta”.
3 Then his father and his mother said to him, “Isn’t there a woman among your brothers’ daughters, or among all my people, that you go to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines?” Samson said to his father, “Get her for me, for she pleases me well.”
4 (Su padre y su madre no se daban cuenta de que esto estaba en los planes del Señor, que buscaba una oportunidad para enfrentarse a los filisteos, porque en ese momento los filisteos gobernaban sobre Israel).
4 But his father and his mother didn’t know that it was of Yahweh; for he sought an occasion against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines ruled over Israel.
5 Sansón fue a Timná con su padre y su madre. Cuando pasaron por los viñedos de Timna, de repente salió un león joven rugiendo para atacarlo.
5 Then Samson went down to Timnah with his father and his mother, and came to the vineyards of Timnah; and behold, a young lion roared at him.
6 El Espíritu del Señor se apoderó de él y desgarró al león con sus propias manos, con la misma facilidad con que se desgarra un cabrito. Pero no le dijo a su padre ni a su madre lo que había hecho. Luego siguió su camino.
6 Yahweh’s Spirit came mightily on him, and he tore him as he would have torn a young goat with his bare hands, but he didn’t tell his father or his mother what he had done.
7 Cuando Sansón habló con la mujer, decidió que ella era la indicada para él.
7 He went down and talked with the woman, and she pleased Samson well.
8 Más tarde, cuando Sansón volvió para casarse con ella, se apartó del camino para buscar el cadáver del león. Dentro del cuerpo había un enjambre de abejas y su miel.
8 After a while he returned to take her, and he went over to see the carcass of the lion; and behold, there was a swarm of bees in the body of the lion, and honey.
9 Raspó un poco de miel en sus manos y la comió mientras caminaba. Cuando volvió con su padre y su madre, les dio un poco y se la comieron. Pero no les dijo que había tomado la miel del cadáver de un león.
9 He took it into his hands, and went on, eating as he went. He came to his father and mother and gave to them, and they ate, but he didn’t tell them that he had taken the honey out of the lion’s body.
10 Mientras su padre iba a visitar a la mujer, Sansón organizó una fiesta para beber, porque esa era la costumbre entre los jóvenes de clase alta.
10 His father went down to the woman; and Samson made a feast there, for the young men used to do so.
11 Cuando el pueblo filisteo lo vio, dispuso que treinta hombres lo acompañaran.
11 When they saw him, they brought thirty companions to be with him.
12 “Dejen que les diga un acertijo”, les dijo Sansón. “Si pueden encontrar su significado y explicármelo durante los siete días de la fiesta, yo les daré treinta mantos de lino y treinta mudas de ropa.
12 Samson said to them, “Let me tell you a riddle now. If you can tell me the answer within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing;
13 Pero si no pueden explicármelo, ustedes me darán a mi treinta mantos de lino y treinta mudas de ropa”. “De acuerdo”, respondieron. “¡Queremos oír tu acertijo!”
13 but if you can’t tell me the answer, then you shall give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing.” They said to him, “Tell us your riddle, that we may hear it.”
14 “La comida salió del que come, y la dulzura salió del fuerte”, dijo. Tres días después todavía no lo habían resuelto.
14 He said to them, “Out of the eater came out food. Out of the strong came out sweetness.” They couldn’t in three days declare the riddle.
15 Al cuarto día se acercaron a la mujer de Sansón y le dijeron: “Utiliza tus encantos para que tu marido te explique el acertijo y luego nos lo cuentes, o te quemaremos a ti y a toda tu familia hasta la muerte. ¿Nos has traído aquí sólo para robarnos?”
15 On the seventh day, they said to Samson’s wife, “Entice your husband, that he may declare to us the riddle, lest we burn you and your father’s house with fire. Have you called us to impoverish us? Isn’t that so?”
16 Entonces la mujer de Sansón fue llorando hacia él, diciendo: “¡Realmente me odias, no es así! ¡No me amas en absoluto! Has planteado un enigma a mi pueblo, pero ni siquiera me lo has explicado”. “¿Y qué?” , respondió él. “¡Ni siquiera se lo he explicado a mi padre o a mi madre! ¿Por qué debería explicártelo a ti?” .
16 Samson’s wife wept before him, and said, “You just hate me, and don’t love me. You’ve told a riddle to the children of my people, and haven’t told it to me.” He said to her, “Behold, I haven’t told my father or my mother, so why should I tell you?”
17 Ella lloró delante de él durante todo el tiempo que duró la fiesta, y al final, al séptimo día, se lo explicó porque ella lo regañaba mucho. Entonces les explicó el significado del acertijo a los jóvenes filisteos.
17 She wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted; and on the seventh day, he told her, because she pressed him severely; and she told the riddle to the children of her people.
18 Antes de que se pusiera el sol del séptimo día, los hombres de la ciudad se acercaron a Sansón y le dijeron: “¿Qué es más dulce que la miel? ¿Qué es más fuerte que un león?” “Si no hubieran usado mi vaca para arar, no habrían descubierto el significado de mi acertijo”, respondió Sansón.
18 The men of the city said to him on the seventh day before the sun went down, “What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?” He said to them, “If you hadn’t plowed with my heifer, you wouldn’t have found out my riddle.”
19 El Espíritu del Señor se apoderó de él y se dirigió a Ascalón, mató a treinta de sus hombres, tomó sus ropas y se las dio a los que habían explicado el enigma. Furioso, Sansón devolvió a la casa de su padre.
19 Yahweh’s Spirit came mightily on him, and he went down to Ashkelon and struck thirty men of them. He took their plunder, then gave the changes of clothing to those who declared the riddle. His anger burned, and he went up to his father’s house.
20 La mujer de Sansón fue entregada a su padrino, que lo había acompañado en su boda.
20 But Samson’s wife was given to his companion, who had been his friend.
