1 And behold, the seed of Samson reigned over the Philistines. And Samson was of the seed of Dan, [one] of the twelve sons of Jacob, and he was the son of a handmaiden of Jacob; and we will inform you how this Samson came into being. The Angel of the Lord appeared to the mother of Samson and said unto her, "Keep thyself from all pollution, and company with no man except thy husband, for he who shall be born of thee shall be a Nazarite, holy to the Lord, and he shall be the deliverer of Israel from the hand of the Philistines." And then she brought forth Samson. And again the Angel appeared unto her and said unto her, "Thou shalt not let a razor go upon his head, and he shall neither eat flesh nor [drink] wine, and he shall marry no strange woman but only a woman of his own kin and from the house of his father." And how God gave him strength ye have heard in the Book of Judges. [*1] But he transgressed the commandment of God, and came and married a daughter of the uncircumcised Philistines. And because of this God was wroth, and He delivered him into the hands of men of the uncircumcised Philistines, and they blinded his eyes, and they made him act the buffoon in the house of their king. And he pulled the roof down upon them, and slew seven hundred thousand of them, and during his life he slew seven hundred thousand of them with iron, and stone, and [his] staff, and the jaw-bone of an ass. For their number was as that of the locusts, until he released Israel from the service of the Philistines. And then Dalila (Delilah) conceived by Samson, and whilst she was with child Samson died with the Philistines; and Delilah brought forth a son and she called is name "Menahem," which is, being interpreted, "Seed of the strong man." Now Delilah was the sister of Maksaba, the wife of the King of the Philistines, and when Samson slew the King of the Philistines in the house with his people and his household, and he died with him, Delilah went to her sister Maksaba, the Queen of the Philistines. Now both women were beautiful, and they had no children, but both had conceived; Maksaba had been with child six months by Kwolason, the King of the Philistines, and Delilah had been with child four months by Samson; and the husbands of both were dead. And the two women loved each other exceedingly. And their love for each other was not like the love of sisters, but like that of the mother for the child, and of the child for the mother; even so was their love. And they lived together. And the dominion over those who were left of the slaughter [made] by Samson in the house of the king was in the hands of Maksaba, for none of the mighty men of war of the kingdom of the Philistines were left, and therefore Maksaba ruled over those that were left. And they spake unto her morning and evening, saying, "We have no other king except thyself, and except that one that shall go forth from thy belly. If our Lord Dagon will do a favour unto us that which is in thy belly shall be a son, who shall reverence our god Dagon and shall reign over us. And if it be a daughter we will make her to reign over us, so that thy name and the name of Kwolason our lord shall be your memorial over us." And then Maksaba brought forth a man-child and all the men of the Philistines rejoiced, and they did homage to her and sang, saying, "Dagon and Bel have honoured her and loved Maksaba, and the seed of Kwolason is found again from Maksaba." And Delilah also bore a son, and the two women brought up the children in great state and dignity. And when the children were five years old they ate and played together before them, and the mothers made garments of costly stuff for them, and [set] daggers above their loins, and chains on their necks. And the people seated the son of Maksaba on the throne of his father, and made him king over the Philistines. ኢሎፍሊ ፡ ዘርአ ፡ ሳምሶን ፡ ይነግሡ ፡ ላዕሌሆሙ ። ወሰምሶንሰ ፡ እም፲ወ፪ ፡ ደቂቀ ፡ ያዕቆብ ፡ ዘርአ ፡ ዳን ፡ ውእቱ ፡ ወልደ ፡ አመት ፡ እምያዕቆብ ፤ ውእቱሰ ፡ ሳምሶን ፡ ናየድዐክሙ ፡ ዘከመ ፡ ኮነ ። አስተርአያ ፡ መልአከ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ ለእሙ ፡ ለሰምሶን ፡ ወይቤላ ፡ ተዐቀቢ ፡ እምኵሉ ፡ ርኩስ ፡ ወኢትቅረቢ ፡ ዘእንበለ ፡ ኀበ ፡ ምትኪ ፡ እስመ ፡ ዘይትወለድ ፡ እምኔኪ ፡ ናዝራዊ ፡ ቅዱሱ ፡ ለእግዚኣብሔር ፡ ወይከውን ፡ መድኀኒቶሙለእስራኤል ፡ እምእደ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ። ወእምዝ ፡ ወለደቶ ፡ ወካዕበ ፡ አስተርአያ ፡ ወይቤላ ፡ ኢታዕርጊ ፡ መላጼ ፡ ዲበ ፡ ርእሱ ፡ ወኢይብላዕ ፡ ሥጋ ፡ ወኢወይነ ፡ ወኢያውስብ ፡ እምባዕድ ፡ ፈጥረት ፡ ዘእንበለ ፡ እምዘመዱ ፡ ወቤተ ፡ አቡሁ ። ወዘከመ ፡ ወሀቦ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ ኀይለ ፡ ሰማዕክሙ ፡ በውስተ ፡ መጽሐፈ ፡ መሳፍንት ። ወተዐደወ ፡ ትእዛዘ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ ወቦአ ፡ ወአውሰበ ፡ ውስተ ፡ አዋልደ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፡ ቈላፋን ፡ ወበእንተዝ ፡ ተምዕዖ ፡ እግዚኣብሔር ፡ ወመጠዎ ፡ ውስተ ፡ እደዊሆሙ ፡ ለሰብአ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፡ ቈላፋን ፡ ወአዖርዎ ፡ አዕይንቲሁ ፡ ወረሰይዎ ፡ መስተዛውዐ ፡ በውስተ ፡ ቤተ ፡ ንጉሦሙ ፤ ወአፍረሰ ፡ መልዕልቶሙ ፡ ወቀተሎሙ ፡ ፸፼ ፡ ወበሕይወቱሰ ፡ ቀተሎሙ ፡ ፸፼ ፡ ወ፪፼ ፡ በኀጺን ፡ ወበእብን ፡ ወበበትር ፡ ወበመንከሰ ፡ አድግ ፤ እስመ ፡ ብዝኆሙ ፡ ከመ ፡ አንበጣ ፡ እስከ ፡ አኅደጎሙ ፡ ለእስራኤል ፡ እምግብርናተ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ። ወእምዝ ፡ ፀንሰት ፡ ደሊላ ፡ እምሳምሶን ፡ ወእንዘ ፡ ፅንስት ፡ ይእቲ ፡ ሞተ ፡ ሳምሶን ፡ ምስለ ፡ ሰብአ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፤ ወወለደት ፡ ወልደ ፡ ደሊላ ፡ ወሰየቶ ፡ ምናሔም ፡ ዘርአ ፡ ኀያል ፡ ብሂል ፠ ወደሊላሰ ፡ እኅታ ፡ ይእቲ ፡ ለመክሳባ ፡ ብእሲተ ፡ ንጉሠ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ። ወሶበ ፡ ቀተሎ ፡ ሰምሶን ፡ ለንጉሠ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፡ በውስተ ፡ ቤት ፡ ምስለ ፡ ሕዝቡ ፡ ወለሊሁኒ ፡ ሞተ ፡ ምስሌሁ ፡ ወገብአት ፡ ደሊላ ፡ ኀበ ፡ እኅታ ፡ ንግሥተ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፡ መክሳባ ፤ እስመ ፡ ክልኤሆን ፡ ላሕያት ፡ እማንቱ ፡ ወአልቦን ፡ ውሉደ ፡ ወባሕቱ ፡ ፅኑሳት ፡ ህየ ፡ ስድስቱ ፡ አውራኅ ፡ መክሳባ ፡ እምዘ ፡ ፀንሰት ፡ እምኀበ ፡ ቈላሶን ፡ ንጉሠ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፡ ወደሊላ ፡ ፬ ፡ አውራኅ ፡ እሙንቱ ፡ እምዘ ፡ ፀንሰት ፡ እምሳምሶን ፡ ወሞቱ ፡ አምታቲሆን ። ወይትፋቀራ ፡ ፈድፋደ ፡ ወፍቅሮንሂ ፡ አኮ ፡ ከመ ፡ አኃት ፡ አላ ፡ ከመ ፡ እም ፡ ለሕፃና ፡ ወከመ ፡ ሕፃን ፡ ለእም ፡ ከማሁ ፡ ፍቅሮን ፤ ወነበራ ፡ ክልኤሆን ፡ ኅቡረ ፡ ወመንግሥትሰ ፡ ውስተ ፡ እዴሃ ፡ ለመክሳባ ፡ እምእለ ፡ ተርፉ ፡ እምቀትለ ፡ ሰምሶን ፡ በውስተ ፡ ቤተ ፡ ንጉሥ ። እስመ ፡ አልቦ ፡ ዘተርፈ ፡ እምደቂቀ ፡ ኀይለ ፡ መንግሥተ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፡ ወበእንተዝ ፡ ነግሠት ፡ ላዕለ ፡ እለ ፡ ተርፉ ፡ መክሳባ ፤ ወይብልዋ ፡ ነግሀ ፡ ወሰርከ ፡ አልብነ ፡ ንጉሠ ፡ ዘእንበሌኪ ፡ ካልአ ፡ ወዘእንበለ ፡ ዘወፅአ ፡ እምከርሥኪ ፤ ለእመ ፡ አሠነየ ፡ ለነ ፡ እግዚእነ ፡ ዳጎን ፡ ይከውን ፡ ወልደ ፡ ዘውስተ ፡ ከርሥኪ ፡ ዘያነሥኦ ፡ ለአምላክነ ፡ ዳጎን ፡ ወዘይነግሥ ፡ ላዕሌነ ፤ ወእመሂ ፡ ኮነት ፡ ወለተ ፡ ናነግሣ ፡ ላዕሌነ ፡ ከመ ፡ ይኩን ፡ ስምኪ ፡ ወስመ ፡ ቈላሶን ፡ እግዚእነ ፡ ላዕሌነ ፡ ዝክርክሙ ። ወእምዝ ፡ ወለደት ፡ ተባዕተ ፡ ወተፈሥሑ ፡ ኵሎሙ ፡ ሰብአ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፡ ወገነዩ ፡ ላቲ ፡ ወሐለዩ ፡ እንዘ ፡ ይብሉ ፡ ዳጎን ፡ ወቤል ፡ አክበርዋ ፡ ወአፍቀርዋ ፡ ለመክሳባ ፡ ወተረክበ ፡ ዘርአ ፡ ቈላሶን ፡ እምኔሃ ፡ ለመክሳባ ፤ ወደሊላኒ ፡ ወለደት ፡ ወልደ ፡ ወሐፀናሆሙ ፡ በብዙኅ ፡ ክብር ፡ ለደቂቆን ። ወሶበ ፡ ኮነ ፡ ሎሙ ፡ ፭ ፡ ዓመተ ፡ ይበልዑ ፡ ወይትዋነዩ ፡ በቅድሜሆን ፤ ወገብራ ፡ ሎሙ ፡ ዐስቀ ፡ ዘዲባጋት ፡ ወሰዋትለ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ሐቌያቲሆሙ ፡ ወአዕኑገ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ክሳውዲሆሙ ። ወረሰይዎ ፡ ንጉሠ ፡ ለወልደ ፡ መክሳባ ፡ ውስተ ፡ መንበረ ፡ አቡሁ ፡ ላዕለ ፡ ኢሎፍሊ ፠ ፠ ፠
