Lunakanawai 16
1 I HO aku la o Samesona i Gaza, a ike iho la ilaila i kekahi wahine hookamakama, a komo aku la io na la.
And Sampson went to Gaza, and saw there a harlot, and went in to her.
2 Haiia'ku la i ko Gaza, Ua hiki mai nei o Samesona. Hoopuni iho la lakou ia wahi, a hoohalua ia ia, ia po a ao, ma ka puka o ke kulanakauhale, a moe malie no ia po a pau, i iho la, A kakahiaka, i ke ao ana ae, make no oia ia kakou.
And it was reported to the Gazites, saying, Sampson is come here: 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 kill him.
3 Moe iho la o Samesona, a iwaena konu o ka po; alaila, ala mai la ia iwaena konu o ka po, a lawe iho la i na pani o ke kulanakauhale, a me na lapauwila elua, unuhi ae la ia laua me ka hoaka o ka puka, kau iho la maluna o kona mau poohiwi, a lawe aku la iluna pono o kahi puu, ma ke alo o Heberona.
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 A mahope iho, aloha ae la ia i kekahi wahine ma ke kahawai o Soreka, o Delila kona inoa.
And it came to pass after this that he loved a woman in Alsorech, and her name [was] Dalida.
5 Pii ae la na'lii o Pilisetia io na la, i ae la ia ia, E hoowalewale oe ia ia, a e nana hoi i kahi o kona ikaika nui, a me ka mea e lanakila'i makou maluna ona, i nakinaki makou ia ia, a pilikia ia; alaila, e uku aku makou ia oe, i hookahi tausani apana kala, a me ka haneri keu.
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 you each eleven hundred [pieces] of silver.
6 I aku la o Delila ia Samesona, Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe ia'u i kou mea e ikaika nui ai, a me ka mea e paa ai oe, i pilikia ai oe.
And Dalida said to Sampson, Tell me, I pray you, wherein [is] your great strength, and wherewith you shall be bound that you may be humbled.
7 I mai la o Samesona ia ia, Ina nakinaki mai lakou ia'u i na kaula maka ehiku, i hoomaloo ole ia, alaila, e nawaliwali au, a like auanei me kekahi kanaka.
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 Alaila, lawe mai na'lii o ko Pilisetia ia ia i ehiku kaula maka, i hoomaloo ole ia, a me ia no ia i nakinaki ai ia ia.
And the princess of the Philistines brought to her seven moist cords that had not been spoiled, and she bound him with them.
9 E moe malu ana no na kanaka maloko o ia keena me ia. I mai la kela, Maluna on auanei ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. Moku ae la ia ia na kaula, e like me ka moku ana o ke kaula oka, i kona wa e honi ai i ke ahi, aole hoi i loaa kahi o kona ikaika.
And the liers in wait remained with her in the chamber; and she said to him, the Philistines [are] upon you, 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 I mai la o Delila ia Samesona, Aia hoi, ua hoowahawaha mai oe ia'u, a ua hoopunipuni mai ia'u. Nolaila, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe ia'u i kou mea e paa ai.
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, you have cheated me, and told me lies; now then tell me wherewith you shall be bound.
11 I aku la keia ia ia, Ina nakinaki paa loa mai lakou ia'u i na kaula hou, aole i hoohanaia, alaila e nawaliwali au, a e like auanei me kekahi kanaka.
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 Kii ae la o Delila i na kaula hou, a nakinaki iho la ia ia me ia, i ae la, Maluna ou auanei o ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. E moe malu ana no na kanaka maloko o ia keena. Moku ae la ia ia na kaula, mai kona lima aku, me he lopi la.
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 you, Sampson: and he broke them off his arms like a thread.
13 I mai o Delila ia Samesona, Ua hoowahawaha mai oe ia'u, a hiki mai i keia manawa, a ua hoopunipuni ia'u. E hai mai oe ia'u i kou mea e paa ai. I aku la keia ia ia, Ina e ulana pu oe i na will ehiku o ko'u poo, me ka lole.
And Dalida said to Sampson, Behold, you have deceived me, and told me lies; tell me, I entreat you, wherewith you may be bound: and he said to her, If you should weave the seven locks of my head with the web, and should fasten them with the pin into the wall, then shall I be weak as another man.
14 Alaila, makia iho la ia i ke kui, i ae la, Maluna ou auanei ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. Ala ae la ia mai kona hiamoe ana, a hele aku la me ke kui o ka mea nana i ulana, a me ka lole pu.
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 you, Sampson: and he awoke out of his sleep, and carried away the pin of the web out of the wall.
15 I mai la oia ia ia, Pehea la oe e olelo ai, Ua aloha au ia oe? Aole hoi kou naau me au. Ekolu ou hoowahawaha ana mai ia'u, aole hoi i hai mai ia'u i kahi o kou ikaika nui.
And Dalida said to Sampson, How say you, I love you, when your heart is not with me? this third time you have deceived me, and have not told me wherein [is] your great strength.
16 I kona koi ana ia ia i na la a pau, i kana olelo ana, a hookaumaha loa ia ia, a pilikia kona manao, aneane make;
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 Alaila, hai aku la oia ia ia i kona naau a pau, i aku la ia ia, Aole i kau mai ka pahikahi maluna o ko'u poo; no ka mea, ua laa au i ke Akua, mai ka opu mai o ko'u makuwahine. Ina e kahiia au, alaila, lilo aku hoi ko'u ikaika mai o'u aku nei, a nawaliwali auanei au e like me kekahi kanaka.
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 A ike iho la o Delila, ua hai mai kela ia ia i kona naau a pau, alaila kii aku la ia, a hoakoakoa mai la i na'lii o ko Pilisetia, i ae la, E pii hou mai oukou, no ka mea, ua hai mai oia ia'u i kona naau a pau. Alaila, pii ae la na'lii o ko Pilisetia io na la, a lawe ae la i ke kala, ma ko lakou lima.
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 Hoomoe iho la oia ia ia ma kona uha; a hea aku la i ke kanaka a haawi ia ia e kahi i na wili ehiku o kona poo a hemo; a hoomaka ia i ka hoopilikia ana ia ia, a lilo aku la kona ikaika, mai ona aku la.
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 I mai la ia, Maluna ou auanei ko Pilisetia, e Samesona. Ala ae la ia, mai kona hiamoe ana, i mai la, E hele au iwaho e like me na wa mamua, e hooluliluli. Aole ia i ike, ua haalele o Iehova ia ia.
And Dalida said, The Philistines [are] upon you, 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 Hoopaa iho la ko Pilisetia ia ia, poalo aku la i kona mau maka, a lawe ae la ia ia i Gaza, a hoopaa iho la ia ia i na kupee keleawe; a wili ae la ia iloko o ka halepaahao.
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 Hoomaka iho la ka lauoho o kona poo i ka ulu hou, e like me ia i ka wa i kahiia'i.
And the hair of his head began to grow as before it was shaven.
23 Alaila hoakoakoa mai la na'lii o ko Pilisetia e kaumaha aku i mohai nui no Dagona, ko lakou akua, a e olioli; no ka mea, olelo mai la lakou, Ua haawi mai ko kakou akua ia Samesona o ko kakou enemi, iloko o ko kakou lima.
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 A ike aku la na kanaka ia ia, hoomana aku la lakou i ko lakou akua; no ka mea, olelo mai la lakou, Ua haawi mai ko kakou akua iloko o ko kakou lima, i ko kakou enemi, i ka mea i anai ai i ko kakou aina, a luku nui mai ia kakou.
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 A i ka wa lealea ai ko lakou naau, i ae la lakou, E kii aku ia Samesona, i hula mai ia no kakou. Kii aku la lakou ia Samesona ma ka halepaahao, a hula mai la ia imua o lakou. A hooku iho la lakou ia ia iwaena o na kia.
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 struck him with the palms of their hands, and set him between the pillars.
26 I ae la o Samesona i ke keiki e paa ana i kona lima, E hoomaha mai oe ia'u i hana aku au i na kia e paa ai ka hale, i hilinai hoi au ma ia mau mea.
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 Ua piha ka hale i na kanaka, a me na wahine. Malaila no na'lii a pau o ko Pilisetia. Ekolu tausani kanaka a me na wahine maluna o ka hale i nana mai i ko Samesona hula ana.
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 Hea aku la o Samesona ia Iehova, i aku la, E ka Haku, e Iehova e, e hoomanao mai oe ia'u; ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hooikaika mai oe ia'u, e ke Akua e, i keia manawa hookahi no, i uku koke ia mai au e ko Pilisetia, no ko'u mau maka elua.
And Sampson wept before the Lord, and said, O Lord, my lord, remember me, I pray you, and strengthen me, O God, yet this once, and I will requite one recompense to the Philistines for my two eyes.
29 Lalau iho la o Samesona ma na kia waenakonu elua, a oia hoi na mea e paa ai ka hale. Hilinai iho la oia ma ia mau mea, o ka lima akau ma kekahi, a o ka lima hema ma kekahi.
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 I iho la o Samesona, E make pu au me ko Pilisetia. Kulou iho la me ka ikaika nui, a hina iho la ka hale maluna o na'lii, a maluna o na kanaka a pau maloko. Ua nui ka poe make, ana i luku ai i kona make ana, he hapa ka poe ana i luku ai i kona wa i ola'i.
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 killed in his death were more than those whom he killed in his life.
31 Iho aku la kona poe hoahanau, a me ko ka hale o kona makuakane, lalau iho la ia ia, a lawe ae la, a kanu iho la mawaena o Zora, a me Esetaola, ma ka ilina o Manoa, o kona makuakane. He iwakalua makahiki ana i hooponopono ai i ka Iseraela.
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.
