Hakim-hakim 14:16

Lalu menangislah isteri Simson itu sambil memeluk Simson, katanya: "Engkau benci saja kepadaku, dan tidak cinta kepadaku; suatu teka-teki kaukatakan kepada orang-orang sebangsaku, tetapi jawabnya tidak kauberitahukan kepadaku." Sahutnya kepadanya: "Sedangkan kepada ayahku dan ibuku tidak kuberitahukan, masakan kepada engkau akan kuberitahukan?"

Alkitab Terjemahan Lama
Maka bini Simsonpun menangis-nangis, serta katanya: Bahwa nyatalah engkau benci juga akan daku dan tiada engkau mengasihi akan daku, karena engkau sudah mengatakan suatu penerka kepada bani bangsaku, maka tiada engkau memberitahu aku artinya. Maka sahutnya: Bahwasanya aku tiada memberitahu artinya jikalau kepada ibu bapaku sekalipun, masakan aku memberitahu dia kepadamu!

Contextual Overview

10 And so his father went downe vnto the woman, and Samson made there a feast: for so vsed the younge men to do. 11 And whe they sawe him, they brought thirtie companions to be with him. 12 And Samson sayd vnto them, I will nowe put foorth a riddle vnto you: & yf you can declare it me within seuen dayes of the feast, and finde it out, I will geue you thirtie sheetes, & thirtie chaunge of garmentes: 13 But and if you can not declare it me, then shal ye geue me thirtie sheetes and thirtie chaunge of garmentes. And they aunswered him: Put foorth thy riddle, that we may heare it. 14 And he sayd vnto them: Out of the eater came meate, and out of the strong came sweetnesse. And they coulde not in three dayes expounde the riddle. 15 And whe the seuenth day was come, they sayd vnto Samsons wyfe: Flatter thyne husband that he may declare vs the riddle, lest we burne thee and thy fathers house with fire: Haue ye called vs hyther, to make vs beggers? is it not so? 16 And Samsons wyfe wept before him and sayd, Surely thou hatest me and louest me not: for thou hast put foorth a riddle vnto the children of my folke, and hast not tolde it me. And he sayde vnto her: Beholde, I haue not tolde it my father and my mother, and shall I tell it thee? 17 And Samsons wyfe wept before him seuen dayes, whyle the feast lasted: And the seuenth day he told her, because she lay so sore vpo him. And she tolde the riddle to the children of her folke. 18 And the men of the citie sayd vnto him the seuenth day, before the sunne went downe: What is sweeter then hony? and what is stronger then a Lion? Then sayd he vnto them: Yf ye had not plowed with my heyffer, ye had not founde out my riddle. 19 And the spirite of the Lord came vpon him, and he went downe to Askalon, and slue thirtie men of them, and spoyled them, & gaue chaunge of garmentes vnto them which expounded the riddle: And he was wroth, and went vp to his fathers house.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Samson's wife wept before him,.... When she came to him to get out of him the explanation of the riddle, thinking that her tears would move him to it:

and said, thou dost but hate me, and lovest me not: another artifice she used, well knowing he could not bear to have his affection called in question, which was now very strong, as is usual with newly married persons:

thou hast put forth a riddle unto the children of my people; her countrymen, fellow citizens, and neighbour, and could not but be dear to her, and respected by her; so that what affected and afflicted them must have some influence upon her:

and hast not told me; that is, the explanation of it, otherwise it is likely she had heard the riddle itself told:

and he said unto her behold, l have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell it thee? his parents he was greatly indebted to, for whom he had the highest reverence and esteem, whose fidelity and taciturnity he had sufficient knowledge of, and yet he had not thought fit to impart it to them; how therefore could she expect to be trusted with such a secret, with whom he had not been long acquainted, not long enough to know whether she could keep it or not?
