BrTrAnd she wept before him the seven days, during which their banquet lasted: and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she troubled him; and she told it to the children of her people.

ULTAnd she wept on him for the seven days during which the feast was to them. And it happened on the seventh day that he declared it to her, for she had pressed him. And she declared the riddle to the sons of her people.

USTBut she kept crying for the rest of the feast. Finally, as it was about to end, he told her the answer to the riddle because she had kept bothering him. She went and told the answer to the Philistine young men.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

שִׁבְעַ֣ת הַ⁠יָּמִ֔ים אֲשֶׁר־הָיָ֥ה לָ⁠הֶ֖ם הַ⁠מִּשְׁתֶּ֑ה

seven_of the=days which/who it_became to/for=them the,feast

Since the author says in [14:15](../14/15.md) that it was only on the “seventh day” of the feast that the Philistine young men came to Samson’s bride and threatened her, he is apparently using the whole period here, seven days, to represent the time that remained in that period. Alternate translation: [for the remainder of the seven days during which they held their feast]

Note 2 topic: writing-newevent

וַ⁠יְהִ֣י

and=he/it_was

The author is using this phrase to introduce a new development in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

וַ⁠יַּגֶּד־לָ⁠הּ֙ כִּ֣י הֱצִיקַ֔תְ⁠הוּ

and,told to/for=her/it that/for/because/then/when nagged,him

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [that, because she had pressed him, he declared it to her]
