Judges 16

Και υπηγεν ο Σαμψων εις την Γαζαν, και ειδεν εκει γυναικα πορνην και εισηλθε προς αυτην.

Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her.

Ανηγγειλαν δε προς τους Γαζαιους, λεγοντες, Ο Σαμψων ηλθεν ενταυθα. Και αυτοι περικυκλωσαντες ενεδρευον αυτον ολην την νυκτα εν τη πυλη της πολεως και ησυχαζον ολην την νυκτα, λεγοντες, Ας προσμενωμεν εως της αυγης της πρωιας και θελομεν φονευσει αυτον.

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.

Ο δε Σαμψων εκοιμηθη εως μεσονυκτιου και σηκωθεις περι το μεσονυκτιον επιασε τας θυρας της πυλης της πολεως, και τους δυο παραστατας, και αποσπασας αυτας μετα του μοχλου, επεθεσεν επι των ωμων αυτου και ανεβιβασεν αυτας επι την κορυφην του ορους του κατεναντι της Χεβρων.

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.

Και μετα ταυτα ηγαπησε γυναικα τινα εν τη κοιλαδι Σωρηκ, της οποιας το ονομα ητο Δαλιδα.

And it came to pass afterward, that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.

Και ανεβησαν προς αυτην οι αρχοντες των Φιλισταιων και ειπον προς αυτην, Κολακευσον αυτον και ιδε εις τι ισταται η δυναμις αυτου η μεγαλη, και τινι τροπω δυναμεθα να υπερισχυσωμεν κατ αυτου, ωστε να δεσωμεν αυτον, δια να δαμασωμεν αυτον και ημεις θελομεν σοι δωσει εκαστος χιλια εκατον αργυρια.

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.

Και ειπεν η Δαλιδα προς τον Σαμψων, Φανερωσον μοι, παρακαλω, εις τι ισταται η δυναμις σου η μεγαλη, και με τι ηθελες δεθη δια να δαμασθης.

And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee.

Και ειπε προς αυτην ο Σαμψων, Εαν με δεσωσι με επτα χορδας υγρας, αιτινες δεν εξηρανθησαν, τοτε θελω αδυνατησει και θελω εισθαι ως εις των ανθρωπων.

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.

Τοτε εφεραν προς αυτην οι αρχοντες των Φιλισταιων επτα χορδας υγρας, αιτινες δεν ειχον ξηρανθη, και εδεσεν αυτον με αυτας.

Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green withs which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.

Ενεδρευον δε ανθρωποι καθημενοι μετ αυτης εν τω κοιτωνι. Και ειπε προς αυτον, Οι Φιλισταιοι επι σε, Σαμψων. Και εκεινος εκοψε τας χορδας, καθως ηθελε κοπη νημα στυπιου, οταν μυρισθη το πυρ. Και δεν εγνωρισθη η δυναμις αυτου.

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.

Και ειπεν η Δαλιδα προς τον Σαμψων, Ιδου, με εγελασας και ελαλησας προς εμε ψευδη ειπε μοι λοιπον, παρακαλω, με τι ηθελες δεθη.

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.

Και ειπε προς αυτην, Εαν με δεσωσι δυνατα με νεα σχοινια, με τα οποια δεν εγεινεν εργασια, τοτε θελω αδυνατησει και θελω εισθαι ως εις των ανθρωπων.

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.

Ελαβε λοιπον η Δαλιδα σχοινια νεα, και εδεσεν αυτον με αυτα και ειπε προς αυτον, Οι Φιλισταιοι επι σε, Σαμψων. Ενεδρευον δε ανθρωποι καθημενοι εν τω κοιτωνι. Και εκοψεν αυτα απο των βραχιονων αυτου ως νημα.

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.

Και ειπεν η Δαλιδα προς τον Σαμψων, Μεχρι τουδε με εγελασας και με ειπας ψευδη ειπε μοι με τι ηθελες δεθη. Και ειπε προς αυτην, Εαν πλεξης τους επτα πλοκαμους της κεφαλης μου εις το διασμα.

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.

Και αυτη επερασεν αυτους, εμπηγουσα και τον πασσαλον και ειπε προς αυτον, Οι Φιλισταιοι επι σε, Σαμψων. Και εξυπνησεν εκ του υπνου αυτου και ανεσπασε τον πασσαλον του υφασματος με το διασμα.

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.

Τοτε ειπε προς αυτον, Πως λεγεις, σε αγαπω, ενω η καρδια σου δεν ειναι μετ εμου; συ με εγελασας τριτην ταυτην την φοραν, και δεν με εφανερωσας εις τι ισταται η δυναμις σου η μεγαλη.

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.

Και επειδη εστενοχωρει αυτον καθ ημεραν με τους λογους αυτης και εβιαζεν αυτον, ωστε η ψυχη αυτου απεκαμε μεχρι θανατου,

And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, so that his soul was vexed unto death;

εφανερωσε προς αυτην ολην την καρδιαν αυτου και ειπε προς αυτην, ξυραφιον δεν ανεβη επι την κεφαλην μου διοτι εγω ειμαι Ναζηραιος εις τον Θεον εκ κοιλιας μητρος μου. Εαν ξυρισθω, τοτε η δυναμις μου θελει φυγει απ εμου, και θελω αδυνατισει και κατασταθη ως παντες οι ανθρωποι.

That he told her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a razor 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.

Και ιδουσα η Δαλιδα, οτι εφανερωσε προς αυτην ολην την καρδιαν αυτου, εστειλε και εκαλεσε τους αρχοντας των Φιλισταιων, λεγουσα, Αναβητε ταυτην την φοραν διοτι μοι εφανερωσεν ολην την καρδιαν αυτου. Τοτε ανεβησαν προς αυτην οι αρχοντες των Φιλισταιων, φεροντες και το αργυριον εις τας χειρας αυτων.

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.

Και απεκοιμησεν αυτον επι των γονατων αυτης και εκαλεσεν ανθρωπον και εξυρισε τους επτα πλοκαμους της κεφαλης αυτου και ηρχισε να δαμαζη αυτον, και η δυναμις αυτου εφυγεν απ αυτου.

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.

Και αυτη ειπεν, Οι Φιλισταιοι επι σε, Σαμψων. Και αυτος εξυπνησεν εκ του υπνου αυτου και ειπε, Θελω εξελθει καθως αλλοτε και θελω εκτιναχθη. Αλλ αυτος δεν εγνωρισεν οτι ο Κυριος ειχεν απομακρυνθη απ αυτου.

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.

Και επιασαν αυτον οι Φιλισταιοι και εξωρυξαν τους οφθαλμους αυτου και κατεβιβασαν αυτον εις Γαζαν και εδεσαν αυτον με δυο χαλκινας αλυσεις και ηλεθεν εν τω οικω του δεσμωτηριου.

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.

Αι δε τριχες της κεφαλης αυτου ηρχισαν να εκφυωνται παλιν, αφου εξυρισθη.

Howbeit the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaven.

Συνηχθησαν δε οι αρχοντες των Φιλισταιων, δια να προσφερωσι θυσιαν μεγαλην εις Δαγων τον θεον αυτων και να ευφρανθωσι διοτι ειπον, Ο Θεος ημων παρεδωκεν εις την χειρα ημων τον Σαμψων τον εχθρον ημων.

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.

Και οτε ειδεν αυτον ο λαος, εδοξασαν τον θεον αυτων, λεγοντες, Ο θεος ημων παρεδωκεν εις την χειρα ημων τον εχθρον ημων και τον ολοθρευτην της γης ημων και τον φονευσαντα πληθος εξ ημων.

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.

Και οτε ευθυμησεν η καρδια αυτων, ειπαν, Καλεσατε τον Σαμψων, δια να παιξη εις ημας. Και εκαλεσαν τον Σαμψων εκ του οικου του δεσμωτηριου, και επαιξεν εμπροσθεν αυτων και εστησαν αυτον αναμεσον των στυλων.

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.

Και ειπεν ο Σαμψων προς το παιδιον, το οποιον εκρατει αυτον εκ της χειρος, Αφες με να ψηλαφησω τους στυλους, επι των οποιων ισταται ο οικος, δια να στηριχθω επ αυτους.

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.

Ο δε οικος ητο πληρης ανδρων και γυναικων και ησαν εκει παντες οι αρχοντες των Φιλισταιων και επι του δωματος περιπου τρεις χιλιαδες ανδρων και γυναικων, οιτινες εθεωρουν τον Σαμψων παιζοντα.

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.

Και εβοησεν ο Σαμψων προς τον Κυριον και ειπε, Δεσποτα Κυριε, ενθυμηθητι με, δεομαι και ενισχυσον με, παρακαλω, μονον ταυτην την φοραν, Θεε, δια να εκδικηθω κατα των Φιλισταιων δια μιας υπερ των δυο οφθαλμων μου.

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.

Και ενηγκαλισθη ο Σαμψων τους δυο μεσους στυλους, επι των οποιων ιστατο ο οικος, και επεστηριχθη επ αυτους, τον ενα με την δεξιαν αυτου και τον αλλον με την αριστεραν αυτου.

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.

Και ειπεν ο Σαμψων, Αποθανετω η ψυχη μου μετα των Φιλισταιων. Και εκαμφθη με δυναμιν και ο οικος επεσεν επι τους αρχοντας και επι παντα τον λαον τον εν αυτω. Οι δε αποθανοντες, τους οποιους εθανατωσεν εν τω θανατω αυτου, ησαν περισσοτεροι παρα οσους εθανατωσεν εν τη ζωη αυτου.

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.

Τοτε κατεβησαν οι αδελφοι αυτου και πας ο οικος του πατρος αυτου και εσηκωσαν αυτον και ανεβιβασαν και εθαψαν αυτον μεταξυ Σαραα και Εσθαολ, εν τω ταφω Μανωε του πατρος αυτου. Εκρινε δε ουτος τον Ισραηλ εικοσι ετη.

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 buryingplace of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years.
