| Cebuano | Karon si Dalila may magbabanhig nga nagahupo sa sulod, ug siya miingon kaniya: Samson, ang mga Filistehanon anaa kanimo. Ug iyang gipamugto ang mga balagon ingon sa lubid nga lanot nga nabugto kong mahisaghid sa kalayo. Busa ang iyang kusog wala mahibaloi. |
| Croatian | Kod nje u sobi bijaše zasjeda i ona viknu: "Samsone, eto Filistejaca na te!" On pokida žile kao što se prekine kuèina kad se primakne ognju. I tako ne doznadoše za tajnu njegove snage. |
| Danish | samtidig havde hun Folk liggende på Lur i Kammeret. Da sagde hun til ham: "Filisterne er over dig, Samson!" Men han rev Strengene over, og de brast som Blårgarn, der kommer Ild for nær; og hvorledes det hang sammen med hans Kræfter, kom ikke for Dagen. |
| Dutch | De achterlage nu zat bij haar in een kamer. Zo zeide zij tot hem: De Filistijnen over u, Simson! Toen verbrak hij de zelen, gelijk als een snoertje van grof vlas verbroken wordt, als het vuur riekt. Alzo werd zijn kracht niet bekend. |
| Finnish | Mutta sisähuoneessa hänellä istui väijyjiä. Ja hän sanoi hänelle: "Filistealaiset ovat kimpussasi, Simson!" Silloin tämä katkaisi jänteet, niinkuin katkeaa tulen kärventämä rohdinlanka. Ei siis päästy hänen voimansa perille. |
| Indonesian-Terjemahan Lama | Adapun orang pengadang adalah duduk dalam biliknya, maka kata perempuan itu kepadanya: Hai Simson, orang Filistin menyergap akan dikau. Maka diputuskannya segala tali busur itu seperti orang memutuskan benang kapas yang telah dimakan api; maka dengan demikianpun tiada ketahuan kesaktiannya ada dalam apa. |
| Maori | Na tera i taua wahine, i te ruma i roto, etahi tangata e tauwhanga ana. Na ka mea ia ki a ia, E Hamahona, ko nga Pirihitini, ka eke ki a koe! Na motumotuhia ana e ia nga aka: koia ano kei te miro muka e motu ana ina pa ki te ahi. Heoi kihai i moh iotia tona kaha. |
| Norwegian | og i kammeret hadde hun folk sittende og lure. Så sa hun til ham: Filistrene er over dig, Samson! Da sønderrev han strengene som en tråd av stry brister når den kommer ilden for nær, og ingen fikk vite hvorledes det hadde sig med hans styrke. |
| Portuguese | Ora, tinha ela em casa uns espias sentados na câmara interior. Então ela disse: Os filisteus vêm sobre ti, Sansão! E ele quebrou as cordas de nervos, como se quebra o fio da estopa ao lhe chegar o fogo. Assim não se soube em que consistia a sua força. |
| Rumanian | Iar niwte oameni stqteau la pkndq la ea, kntr`o odaie. Ea i -a zis: ,,Filistenii sknt asupra ta Samson``! Wi el a rupt funiile, cum se rupe o ayq de cklyi cknd se atinge de foc. Wi astfel n`au wtiut de unde -i venea puterea. |
| Swedish | Men hon hade lagt folk i försåt i den inre kammaren. Sedan ropade hon till honom: "Filistéerna äro över dig, Simson!" Då slet han sönder sensträngarna så lätt som en blångarnssnodd slites sönder, när den kommer intill elden. Alltså hade man ingenting fått veta om hans styrka. |
