Chapter 14

And Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines.

 

Samson descendit à Thimna, et il y vit une femme parmi les filles des Philistins.

And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me to wife.

 

Lorsqu`il fut remonté, il le déclara à son père et à sa mère, et dit: J`ai vu à Thimna une femme parmi les filles des Philistins; prenez-la maintenant pour ma femme.

Then his father and his mother said unto him, Is there never a woman among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines? And Samson said unto his father, Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well.

 

Son père et sa mère lui dirent: N`y a-t-il point de femme parmi les filles de tes frères et dans tout notre peuple, que tu ailles prendre une femme chez les Philistins, qui sont incirconcis? Et Samson dit à son père: Prends-la pour moi, car elle me plaît.

But his father and his mother knew not that it was of the LORD, that he sought an occasion against the Philistines: for at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.

 

Son père et sa mère ne savaient pas que cela venait de l`Éternel: car Samson cherchait une occasion de dispute de la part des Philistins. En ce temps là, les Philistins dominaient sur Israël.

Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and, behold, a young lion roared against him.

 

Samson descendit avec son père et sa mère à Thimna. Lorsqu`ils arrivèrent aux vignes de Thimna, voici, un jeune lion rugissant vint à sa rencontre.

And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand: but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.

 

L`esprit de l`Éternel saisit Samson; et, sans avoir rien à la main, Samson déchira le lion comme on déchire un chevreau. Il ne dit point à son père et à sa mère ce qu`il avait fait.

And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.

 

Il descendit et parla à la femme, et elle lui plut.

And after a time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion.

 

Quelque temps après, il se rendit de nouveau à Thimna pour la prendre, et se détourna pour voir le cadavre du lion. Et voici, il y avait un essaim d`abeilles et du miel dans le corps du lion.

And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion.

 

Il prit entre ses mains le miel, dont il mangea pendant la route; et lorsqu`il fut arrivé près de son père et de sa mère, il leur en donna, et ils en mangèrent. Mais il ne leur dit pas qu`il avait pris ce miel dans le corps du lion.

So his father went down unto the woman: and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.

 

Le père de Samson descendit chez la femme. Et là, Samson fit un festin, car c`était la coutume des jeunes gens.

And it came to pass, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him.

 

Dès qu`on le vit, on invita trente compagnons qui se tinrent avec lui.

And Samson said unto them, I will now put forth a riddle unto you: if ye can certainly declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty sheets and thirty change of garments:

 

Samson leur dit: Je vais vous proposer une énigme. Si vous me l`expliquez pendant les sept jours du festin, et si vous la découvrez, je vous donnerai trente chemises et trente vêtements de rechange.

But if ye cannot declare it me, then shall ye give me thirty sheets and thirty change of garments. And they said unto him, Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it.

 

Mais si vous ne pouvez pas me l`expliquer, ce sera vous qui me donnerez trente chemises et trente vêtements de rechange. Ils lui dirent: Propose ton énigme, et nous l`écouterons.

And he said unto them, Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could not in three days expound the riddle.

 

Et il leur dit: De celui qui mange est sorti ce qui se mange, et du fort est sorti le doux. Pendant trois jours, ils ne purent expliquer l`énigme.

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson's wife, Entice thy husband, that he may declare unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father's house with fire: have ye called us to take that we have? is it not so?

 

Le septième jour, ils dirent à la femme de Samson: Persuade à ton mari de nous expliquer l`énigme; sinon, nous te brûlerons, toi et la maison de ton père. C`est pour nous dépouiller que vous nous avez invités, n`est-ce pas?

And Samson's wife wept before him, and said, Thou dost but hate me, and lovest me not: thou hast put forth a riddle unto the children of my people, and hast not told it me. And he said unto her, Behold, I have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell it thee?

 

La femme de Samson pleurait auprès de lui, et disait: Tu n`as pour moi que de la haine, et tu ne m`aimes pas; tu as proposé une énigme aux enfants de mon peuple, et tu ne me l`as point expliquée! Et il lui répondait: Je ne l`ai expliquée ni à mon père ni à ma mère; est-ce à toi que je l`expliquerais?

And she wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted: and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she lay sore upon him: and she told the riddle to the children of her people.

 

Elle pleura auprès de lui pendant les sept jours que dura leur festin; et le septième jour, il la lui expliqua, car elle le tourmentait. Et elle donna l`explication de l`énigme aux enfants de son peuple.

And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down, What is sweeter than honey? and what is stronger than a lion? And he said unto them, If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.

 

Les gens de la ville dirent à Samson le septième jour, avant le coucher du soleil: Quoi de plus doux que le miel, et quoi de plus fort que le lion? Et il leur dit: Si vous n`aviez pas labouré avec ma génisse, vous n`auriez pas découvert mon énigme.

And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.

 

L`esprit de l`Éternel le saisit, et il descendit à Askalon. Il y tua trente hommes, prit leurs dépouilles, et donna les vêtements de rechange à ceux qui avaient expliqué l`énigme. Il était enflammé de colère, et il monta à la maison de son père.

But Samson's wife was given to his companion, whom he had used as his friend.

 

Sa femme fut donnée à l`un de ses compagnons, avec lequel il était lié.
