Judges 13

Jueces 13
|
And the children of Israel again did evil in the eyes of the Lord; and the Lord gave them into the hands of the Philistines for forty years. | Y Los hijos de Israel tornaron á hacer lo malo en los ojos de Jehová; y Jehová los entregó en mano de los Filisteos, por cuarenta años. |
Now there was a certain man of Zorah of the family of the Danites, and his name was Manoah; and his wife had never given birth to a child. | Y había un hombre de Sora, de la tribu de Dan, el cual se llamaba Manoa; y su mujer era estéril, que nunca había parido. |
And the angel of the Lord came to the woman, and said to her, See now! though you have never given birth to children, you will be with child and give birth to a son. | A esta mujer apareció el ángel de Jehová, y díjole: He aquí que tú eres estéril, y no has parido: mas concebirás y parirás un hijo. |
Now then take care to have no wine or strong drink and to take no unclean thing for food; | Ahora, pues, mira que ahora no bebas vino, ni sidra, ni comas cosa inmunda. |
For you are with child and will give birth to a son; his hair is never to be cut, for the child is to be separate to God from his birth; and he will take up the work of freeing Israel from the hands of the Philistines. | Porque tú te harás embarazada, y parirás un hijo: y no subirá navaja sobre su cabeza, porque aquel niño será Nazareo á Dios desde el vientre, y él comenzará á salvar á Israel de mano de los Filisteos. |
Then the woman came in, and said to her husband, A man came to me, and his form was like the form of a god, causing great fear; I put no question to him about where he came from, and he did not give me his name; | Y la mujer vino y contólo á su marido, diciendo: Un varón de Dios vino á mí, cuyo aspecto era como el aspecto de un ángel de Dios, terrible en gran manera; y no le pregunté de dónde ni quién era, ni tampoco él me dijo su nombre. |
But he said to me, You are with child and will give birth to a son; and now do not take any wine or strong drink or let anything unclean be your food; for the child will be separate to God from his birth to the day of his death. | Y díjome: He aquí que tú concebirás, y parirás un hijo: por tanto, ahora no bebas vino, ni sidra, ni comas cosa inmunda; porque este niño desde el vientre será Nazareo á Dios hasta el día de su muerte. |
Then Manoah made prayer to the Lord, and said, O Lord, let the man of God whom you sent come to us again and make clear to us what we are to do for the child who is to come. | Entonces oró Manoa á Jehová, y dijo: Ah, Señor mío, yo te ruego que aquel varón de Dios que enviaste, torne ahora á venir á nosotros, y nos enseñe lo que hayamos de hacer con el niño que ha de nacer. |
And God gave ear to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came to the woman again when she was seated in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her. | Y Dios oyó la voz de Manoa: y el ángel de Dios volvió otra vez á la mujer, estando ella en el campo; mas su marido Manoa no estaba con ella. |
So the woman, running quickly, gave her husband the news, saying, I have seen the man who came to me the other day. | Y la mujer corrió prontamente, y noticiólo á su marido, diciéndole: Mira que se me ha aparecido aquel varón que vino á mí el otro día. |
And Manoah got up and went after his wife, and came up to the man and said to him, Are you the man who was talking to this woman? And he said, I am. | Y levantóse Manoa, y siguió á su mujer; y así que llegó al varón, díjole: ¿Eres tú aquel varón que hablaste á la mujer? Y él dijo: Yo soy. |
And Manoah said, Now when your words come true, what is to be the rule for the child and what will be his work? | Entonces Manoa dijo: Cúmplase pues tu palabra. ¿Qué orden se tendrá con el niño, y qué ha de hacer? |
And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, Let the woman take note of what I have said to her. | Y el ángel de Jehová respondió á Manoa: La mujer se guardará de todas las cosas que yo le dije: |
She is to have nothing which comes from the vine for her food, and let her take no wine or strong drink or anything which is unclean; let her take care to do all I have given her orders to do. | Ella no comerá cosa que proceda de vid que da vino; no beberá vino ni sidra, y no comerá cosa inmunda: ha de guardar todo lo que le mandé. |
And Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, Now let us keep you while we make ready a young goat for you. | Entonces Manoa dijo al ángel de Jehová: Ruégote permitas que te detengamos, y aderezaremos un cabrito que poner delante de ti. |
And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, Though you keep me I will not take of your food; but if you will make a burned offering, let it be offered to the Lord. For it had not come into Manoah's mind that he was the angel of the Lord. | Y el ángel de Jehová respondió á Manoa: Aunque me detengas no comeré de tu pan: mas si quisieres hacer holocausto, sacrifícalo á Jehová. Y no sabía Manoa que aquél fuese ángel de Jehová. |
Then Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, What is your name, so that when your words come true we may give you honour? | Entonces dijo Manoa al ángel de Jehová: ¿Cómo es tu nombre, para que cuando se cumpliere tu palabra te honremos? |
But the angel of the Lord said to him, Why are you questioning me about my name, seeing that it is a wonder? | Y el ángel de Jehová respondió: ¿Por qué preguntas por mi nombre, que es oculto? |
So Manoah took the young goat with its meal offering, offering it on the rock to the Lord, who did strange things. | Y Manoa tomó un cabrito de las cabras y un presente, y sacrificólo sobre una peña á Jehová: y el ángel hizo milagro á vista de Manoa y de su mujer. |
And when the flame went up to heaven from the altar, the angel of the Lord went up in the flame of the altar, while Manoah and his wife were looking on; and they went down on their faces to the earth. | Porque aconteció que como la llama subía del altar hacia el cielo, el ángel de Jehová subió en la llama del altar á vista de Manoa y de su mujer, los cuales se postraron en tierra sobre sus rostros. |
But the angel of the Lord was seen no more by Manoah and his wife. Then it was clear to Manoah that he was the angel of the Lord. | Y el ángel de Jehová no tornó á aparecer á Manoa ni á su mujer. Entonces conoció Manoa que era el ángel de Jehová. |
And Manoah said to his wife, Death will certainly be our fate, for it is a god whom we have seen. | Y dijo Manoa á su mujer: Ciertamente moriremos, porque á Dios hemos visto. |
But his wife said to him, If the Lord was purposing our death, he would not have taken our burned offering and our meal offering, or have given us such orders about the child. | Y su mujer le respondió: Si Jehová nos quisiera matar, no tomara de nuestras manos el holocausto y el presente, ni nos hubiera mostrado todas estas cosas, ni en tal tiempo nos habría anunciado esto. |
So the woman gave birth to a son, and gave him the name Samson; and he became a man and the blessing of the Lord was on him. | Y la mujer parió un hijo, y llamóle por nombre Samsón. Y el niño creció, y Jehová lo bendijo. |
And the spirit of the Lord first came on him in Mahaneh-dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol. | Y el espíritu de Jehová comenzó á manifestarse en él en los campamentos de Dan, entre Sora y Esthaol. |
