| 1 | And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord: and he delivered them into the hands of the Philistines forty years. | Καὶ προσέθηκαν ἔτι οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου· καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος ἐν χειρὶ Φυλιστιῒμ τεσσαράκοντα ἔτη. |
| 2 | Now there was a certain man of Saraa, and of the race of Dan, whose name was Manue, and his wife was barren. | Καὶ ἦν ἀνὴρ εἷς ἀπὸ Σαραὰ ἀπὸ δήμου συγγενείας τοῦ Δανὶ, καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῷ Μανωὲ, καὶ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ στεῖρα καὶ οὐκ ἔτεκε. |
| 3 | And an angel of the Lord appeared to her, and said: Thou art barren and without children: but thou shalt conceive and bear a son. | Καὶ ὤφθη ἄγγελος Κυρίου πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὴν, ἰδοὺ σὺ στεῖρα καὶ οὐ τέτοκας, καὶ συλλήψῃ υἱόν. |
| 4 | Now therefore beware and drink no wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing. | Καὶ νῦν φύλαξαι δὴ, καὶ μὴ πίῃς οἶνον καὶ μέθυσμα, καὶ μὴ φάγῃς πᾶν ἀκάθαρτον, |
| 5 | Because thou shalt conceive and bear a son, and no razor shall touch his head: for he shall be a Nazarite of God, from his infancy, and from his mother’s womb, and he shall begin to deliver Israel from the hands of the Philistines. | ὅτι ἰδοὺ σὺ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχεις καὶ τέξῃ υἱόν· καὶ σίδηρος ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀναβήσεται, ὅτι Ναζὶρ Θεοῦ ἔσται τὸ παιδάριον ἀπὸ τῆς κοιλίας· καὶ αὐτὸς ᾄρξεται σῶσαι τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ χειρὸς Φυλιστιΐμ. |
| 6 | And when she was come to her husband she said to him: A man of God came to me, having the countenance of an angel, very awful. And when I asked him who he was, and whence he came, and by what name he was called, he would not tell me. | Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἡ γυνὴ, καὶ εἶπε τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς, λέγουσα, ἄνθρωπος Θεοῦ ἦλθε πρὸς μὲ, καὶ εἶδος αὐτοῦ ὡς εἶδος ἀγγέλου Θεοῦ, φοβερὸν σφόδρα· καὶ οὐκ ἠρώτησα αὐτὸν πόθεν ἐστὶ, καὶ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀπήγγειλέ μοι. |
| 7 | But he answered thus: Behold thou shalt conceive and bear a son: beware thou drink no wine, nor strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite of God from his infancy, from his mother’s womb until the day of his death. | Καὶ εἶπέ μοι, ἰδοὺ σὺ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχεις καὶ τέξῃ υἱόν· καὶ νῦν μὴ πίῃς οἶνον καὶ μέθυσμα, καὶ μὴ φάγῃς πᾶν ἀκάθαρτον, ὅτι Θεοῦ ἅγιον ἔσται τὸ παιδάριον ἀπὸ γαστρὸς ἕως ἡμέρας θανάτου αὐτοῦ. |
| 8 | Then Manue prayed to the Lord, and said: I beseech thee, O Lord, that the mail of God, whom thou didst send, may come again, and teach us what we ought to do concerning the child that shall be born. | Καὶ προσηύξατο Μανωὲ πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ εἶπεν, ἐν ἐμοὶ Κύριε ἀδωναϊὲ τὸν ἄνθρωπον τοῦ Θεοῦ ὃν ἀπέστειλας· ἐλθέτω δὴ ἔτι πρὸς ἡμᾶς, καὶ συμβιβασάτω ἡμᾶς τί ποιήσωμεν τῷ παιδίῳ τῷ τικτομένῳ. |
| 9 | And the Lord heard the prayer of Manue, and the angel of the Lord appeared again to his wife as she was sitting in the field. But Manue her husband was not with her. And when she saw the angel, | Καὶ εἰσήκουσεν ὁ Θεὸς τῆς φωνῆς Μανωὲ, καὶ ἦλθεν ὁ ἄγγελος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἔτι πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα· καὶ αὕτη ἐκάθητο ἐν ἀγρῷ, καὶ Μανωὲ ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς οὐκ ἦν μετʼ αὐτῆς. |
| 10 | She made haste and ran to her husband: and told him saying: Behold the man hath appeared to me whom I saw before. | Καὶ ἐτάχυνεν ἡ γυνὴ καὶ ἔδραμε καὶ ἀνήγγειλε τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, ἰδοὺ ὦπται πρὸς μὲ ὁ ἀνὴρ ὃς ἦλθεν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ πρὸς μέ. |
| 11 | He rose up and followed his wife: and coming to the man, said to him: Art thou he that spoke to the woman? And he answered: I am. | Καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη Μανωὲ ὀπίσω τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἦλθε πρὸς τὸν ἄνδρα, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, εἰ σὺ εἶ ὁ ἀνὴρ, ὁ λαλήσας πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα; καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἄγγελος, ἐγώ. |
| 12 | And Manue said to him: When thy word shall come to pass, what wilt thou that the child should do? or from what shall he keep himself? | Καὶ εἶπε Μανωὲ, νῦν ἐλεύσεται ὁ λόγος· τίς ἔσται κρίσις τοῦ παιδίου καὶ τὰ ποιήματα αὐτοῦ; |
| 13 | And the angel of the Lord said to Manue: From all the things I have spoken of to thy wife, let her refrain herself: | Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου πρὸς Μανωὲ, ἀπὸ πάντων ὧν εἴρηκα πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα, φυλάξεται· |
| 14 | And let her eat nothing that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: and whatsoever I have commanded her, let her fulfill and observe. | Ἀπὸ παντὸς ὃ ἐκπορεύεται ἐξ ἀμπέλου τοῦ οἴνου, οὐ φάγεται, καὶ οἶνον καὶ μέθυσμα μὴ πιέτω, καὶ πᾶν ἀκάθαρτον μὴ φαγέτω· πάντα ὅσα ἐνετειλάμην αὐτῇ, φυλάξεται. |
| 15 | And Manue said to the angel of the Lord: I beseech thee to consent to my request, and let us dress a kid for thee. | Καὶ εἶπε Μανωὲ πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον Κυρίου, κατάσχωμεν ὧδέ σε, καὶ ποιήσωμεν ἐνώπιόν σου ἔριφον αἰγῶν. |
| 16 | And the angel answered him: If thou press me, I will not eat of thy bread: but if thou wilt offer a holocaust, offer it to the Lord. And Manue knew not it was the angel of the Lord. | Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου πρὸς Μανωὲ, ἐὰν κατάσχῃς, οὐ φάγομαι ἀπὸ τῶν ἄρτων σου· καὶ ἐὰν ποιήσῃς ὁλοκαύτωμα, τῷ Κυρίῳ ἀνοίσεις αὐτό· ὅτι οὐκ ἔγνω Μανωὲ, ὅτι ἄγγελος Κυρίου αὐτός. |
| 17 | And he said to him: What is thy name, that, if thy word shall come to pass, we may honour thee? | Καὶ εἶπε Μανωὲ πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον Κυρίου, τί τὸ ὄνομά σοι, ὅτι ἔλθοι τὸ ῥῆμά σου, καὶ δοξάσομέν σε; |
| 18 | And he answered him: Why askest thou my name, which is wonderful? | Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου, εἰς τί τοῦτο ἐρωτᾷς τὸ ὄνομά μου; καὶ αὐτό ἐστι θαυμαστόν. |
| 19 | Then Manue took a kid of the flocks, and the libations, and put them upon a rock, offering to the Lord, who doth wonderful things: and he and his wife looked on. | Καὶ ἔλαβε Μανωὲ τὸν ἔριφον τῶν αἰγῶν καὶ τὴν θυσίαν, καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν ἐπὶ τὴν πέτραν τῷ Κυρίῳ· καὶ διεχώρισε ποιῆσαι, καὶ Μανωὲ καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ βλέποντες. |
| 20 | And when the flame from the altar went up towards heaven, the angel of the lord ascended also in the flame. And when Manue and his wife saw this, they fell flat on the ground. | Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἀναβῆναι τὴν φλόγα ἐπάνω τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου ἕως τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἀνέβη ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐν τῇ φλογί. καὶ Μανωὲ καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ βλέποντες, καὶ ἔπεσον ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν. |
| 21 | And the angel of the Lord appeared to them no more. And forthwith Manue understood that it was an angel of the Lord, | Καὶ οὐ προσέθηκεν ἔτι ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ὀφθῆναι πρὸς Μανωὲ καὶ πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ· τότε ἔγνω Μανωὲ, ὅτι ἄγγελος Κυρίου οὗτος. |
| 22 | And he said to his wife: We shall certainly die, because we have seen God. | Καὶ εἶπε Μανωὲ πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, θανάτῳ ἀποθανούμεθα ὅτι Θεὸν εἴδομεν. |
| 23 | And his wife answered him: If the Lord had a mind to kill us, he would not have received a holocaust and libations at our hands, neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor have told us the things that are to come. | Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ, εἰ ἤθελεν ὁ Κύριος θανατῶσαι ἡμᾶς, οὐκ ἂν ἔλαβεν ἐκ χειρὸς ἡμῶν ὁλοκαύτωμα καὶ θυσίαν, καὶ οὐκ ἂν ἔδειξεν ἡμῖν ταῦτα πάντα, καὶ καθὼς καιρός οὐκ ἂν ἠκούτισεν ἡμᾶς ταῦτα. |
| 24 | And she bore a son, and called his name Samson. And the child grew, and the Lord blessed him. | Καὶ ἔτεκεν ἡ γυνὴ υἱὸν, καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Σαμψών· καὶ ἡδρύνθη τὸ παιδάριον, καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸ Κύριος. |
| 25 | And the spirit of the Lord began to be with him in the camp of Dan, between Saraa and Esthaol. | Καὶ ἤρξατο πνεῦμα Κυρίου συνεκπορεύεσθαι αὐτῷ ἐν παρεμβολῇ Δὰν, καὶ ἀναμέσον Σαραὰ καὶ ἀναμέσον Ἐσθαόλ. |
