LESSON 38
Jehova Gaa-Ɓaa Ʋeeni Sãasĩ Ya
Plenty of the Israelite dem started worshipping false gods again. So Jehovah allow the Philistines to control their land. But some of the Israelites use to love Jehovah. Manoah wor one of them. He and his wife wor not having child. Then one day Jehovah send his angel to Manoah wife. The angel tell her say: ‘You will born boy child. He will save Israel from the Philistines. And he will be Nazirite.’ You know who them they use to call Nazirites? They wor special servants to Jehovah. And they wor not allow to cut their hair.
After some time, Manoah wife give birth to boy child, and they name him Samson. When Samson wor growing up, Jehovah made him really strong. He kill lion with his bare hands. One day, Samson kill 30 Philistines all by hisself. The Philistines started hating his business and they continue to look for way to kill him. Then one night when Samson wor sleeping in Gaza, the Philistines went to the city gate and wait for him there, so they can kill him in the morning. But way in the night, Samson wake up and go to the city gate, he hurl the gate and move it from in the wall. Then he put it on his shoulder and carry it all the way on top of one mountain near Hebron!
Later on, the Philistines went to Delilah, the woman Samson wor in love with, and tell her say: ‘We will give you plenty money if you find out what make Samson strong. We want catch him and put him in jail.’ Delilah wanted the money, so she agree. First, Samson refuse to tell her why he wor strong. But she leave behind him until he tell her his secret. Then he tell her say: ‘I not cut my hair before because I Nazirite.’ ‘If I cut my hair, I will not be strong again.’ That big mistake Samson make by telling her, ehn that true?
Right away Delilah tell the Philistines say: ‘I know his secret now!’ She made Samson to sleep on her lap, then she tell somebody to cut his hair. Then Delilah start shouting: ‘Samson, the Philistines here!’ But when Samson wake up, he wor not having strength again. The Philistines grab him, burst his eye ball, and put him in jail.
One day, plenty of the Philistines go to the temple they can worship their god they call Dagon. And they started shouting: ‘Our god na give Samson to us! Yor bring him outside! Let play fun out of him.’ They made him to stand between two pillars, and they started playing fun out of him. Then Samson pray to Jehovah and say: ‘O Jehovah, please give me strength one more time.’ By that time, Samson hair na grow long again. He use all his strength to push the pillars that wor holding the temple. Then the whole building fall down, and all the people in the temple die, including Samson.
“For all things I have the strength through the one who gives me power.”—Philippians 4:13
