SMITH VAN DYKEKING JAMES BIBLE
1 ثم ذهب شمشون الى غزّة ورأى هناك امرأة زانية فدخل اليها.1 Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her.
2 فقيل للغزّيين قد اتى شمشون الى هنا. فاحاطوا به وكمنوا له الليل كله عند باب المدينة فهدأوا الليل كله قائلين عند ضوء الصباح نقتله.2 And it was told the Gazites, saying, Samson is come hither. And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning, when it is day, we shall kill him.
3 فاضطجع شمشون الى نصف الليل ثم قام في نصف الليل واخذ مصراعي باب المدينة والقائمتين وقلعهما مع العارضة ووضعها على كتفيه وصعد بها الى راس الجبل الذي مقابل حبرون3 And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron.
4 وكان بعد ذلك انه احب امرأة في وادي سورق اسمها دليلة.4 And it came to pass afterward, that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.
5 فصعد اليها اقطاب الفلسطينيين وقالوا لها تملقيه وانظري بماذا قوته العظيمة وبماذا نتمكن منه لكي نوثقه لاذلاله فنعطيك كل واحد الفا ومئة شاقل فضة.5 And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said unto her, Entice him, and see wherein his great strength lieth, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him: and we will give thee every one of us eleven hundred pieces of silver.
6 فقالت دليلة لشمشون اخبرني بماذا قوتك العظيمة وبماذا توثق لاذلالك.6 And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee.
7 فقال لها شمشون اذا اوثقوني بسبعة اوتار طرية لم تجف اضعف واصير كواحد من الناس.7 And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with seven green withs that were never dried, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.
8 فاصعد لها اقطاب الفلسطينيين سبعة اوتار طرية لم تجف فاوثقته بها8 Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green withs which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.
9 والكمين لابث عندها في الحجرة. فقالت له الفلسطينيون عليك يا شمشون. فقطع الاوتار كما يقطع فتيل المشاقة اذ شمّ النار ولم تعلم قوته.9 Now there were men lying in wait, abiding with her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he brake the withs, as a thread of tow is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known.
10 فقالت دليلة لشمشون ها قد ختلتني وكلمتني بالكذب. فاخبرني الآن بماذا توثق.10 And Delilah said unto Samson, Behold, thou hast mocked me, and told me lies: now tell me, I pray thee, wherewith thou mightest be bound.
11 فقال لها اذا اوثقوني بحبال جديدة لم تستعمل اضعف واصير كواحد من الناس.11 And he said unto her, If they bind me fast with new ropes that never were occupied, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.
12 فأخذت دليلة حبالا جديدة واوثقته بها وقالت له الفلسطينيون عليك يا شمشون. والكمين لابث في الحجرة. فقطعها عن ذراعيه كخيط.12 Delilah therefore took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And there were liers in wait abiding in the chamber. And he brake them from off his arms like a thread.
13 فقالت دليلة لشمشون حتى الآن ختلتني وكلمتني بالكذب. فاخبرني بماذا توثق. فقال لها اذا ضفرت سبع خصل راسي مع السدى.13 And Delilah said unto Samson, Hitherto thou hast mocked me, and told me lies: tell me wherewith thou mightest be bound. And he said unto her, If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with the web.
14 فمكنتها بالوتد وقالت له الفلسطينيون عليك يا شمشون. فانتبه من نومه وقلع وتد النسيج والسدى.14 And she fastened it with the pin, and said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awaked out of his sleep, and went away with the pin of the beam, and with the web.
15 فقالت له كيف تقول احبك وقلبك ليس معي. هوذا ثلاث مرات قد ختلتني ولم تخبرني بماذا قوتك العظيمة.15 And she said unto him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when thine heart is not with me? thou hast mocked me these three times, and hast not told me wherein thy great strength lieth.
16 ولما كانت تضايقه بكلامها كل يوم والحّت عليه ضاقت نفسه الى الموت16 And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, so that his soul was vexed unto death;
17 فكشف لها كل قلبه وقال لها لم يعل موسى راسي لاني نذير الله من بطن امي. فان حلقت تفارقني قوتي واضعف واصير كاحد الناس.17 That he told her all his heart, and said unto her. There hath not come a rasor upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother's womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.
18 ولما رأت دليلة انه قد اخبرها بكل ما بقلبه ارسلت فدعت اقطاب الفلسطينيين وقالت اصعدوا هذه المرة فانه قد كشف لي كل قلبه. فصعد اليها اقطاب الفلسطينيين واصعدوا الفضة بيدهم.18 And 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 hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their hand.
19 وانامته على ركبتيها ودعت رجلا وحلقت سبع خصل رأسه وابتدأت باذلاله وفارقته قوته.19 And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.
20 وقالت الفلسطينيون عليك يا شمشون. فانتبه من نومه وقال اخرج حسب كل مرة وانتفض. ولم يعلم ان الرب قد فارقه.20 And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the LORD was departed from him.
21 فأخذه الفلسطينيون وقلعوا عينيه ونزلوا به الى غزّة واوثقوه بسلاسل نحاس وكان يطحن في بيت السجن.21 But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house.
22 وابتدأ شعر راسه ينبت بعد ان حلق22 Howbeit the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaven.
23 واما اقطاب الفلسطينيين فاجتمعوا ليذبحوا ذبيحة عظيمة لداجون الههم ويفرحوا وقالوا قد دفع الهنا ليدنا شمشون عدونا.23 Then the lords of the Philistines gathered them together for to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice: for they said, Our god hath delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.
24 ولما رآه الشعب مجدوا الههم لانهم قالوا قد دفع الهنا ليدنا عدونا الذي خرب ارضنا وكثر قتلانا.24 And when the people saw him, they praised their god: for they said, Our god hath delivered into our hands our enemy, and the destroyer of our country, which slew many of us.
25 وكان لما طابت قلوبهم انهم قالوا ادعوا شمشون ليلعب لنا. فدعوا شمشون من بيت السجن فلعب امامهم واوقفوه بين الاعمدة.25 And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him between the pillars.
26 فقال شمشون للغلام الماسك بيده دعني المس الاعمدة التي البيت قائم عليها لاستند عليها.26 And Samson said unto the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the house standeth, that I may lean upon them.
27 وكان البيت مملوءا رجالا ونساء وكان هناك جميع اقطاب الفلسطينيين وعلى السطح نحو ثلاثة آلاف رجل وامرأة ينظرون لعب شمشون.27 Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were upon the roof about three thousand men and women, that beheld while Samson made sport.
28 فدعا شمشون الرب وقال يا سيدي الرب اذكرني وشددني يا الله هذه المرة فقط فانتقم نقمة واحدة عن عينيّ من الفلسطينيين.28 And Samson called unto the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.
29 وقبض شمشون على العمودين المتوسطين اللذين كان البيت قائما عليهما واستند عليهما الواحد بيمينه والآخر بيساره.29 And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left.
30 وقال شمشون لتمت نفسي مع الفلسطينيين. وانحنى بقوة فسقط البيت على الاقطاب وعلى كل الشعب الذي فيه فكان الموتى الذين اماتهم في موته اكثر من الذين اماتهم في حياته.30 And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life.
31 فنزل اخوته وكل بيت ابيه وحملوه وصعدوا به ودفنوه بين صرعة واشتأول في قبر منوح ابيه. وهو قضى لاسرائيل عشرين سنة31 Then his brethren 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 burying place of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years.
