Bisisu 21
1 Isala: ili dunu da Misiba moilaiga musa: gilisiliba, ilia da Hina Gode ba: ma: ne, gasa bagade sema hamosu, amane, “Ninia uda mano amo Bediamini dunu da hamedafa lamu.”
Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpah, saying, "There shall not any of us give his daughter to Benjamin as wife."
2 Amalalu, ilia da Bedele moilaiga asili, amola Gode ba: ma: ne eso amo ganodini fili, asili daeya ha: giwane didiga: lalu.
The people came to Bethel, and sat there until evening before God, and lifted up their voices, and wept severely.
3 Ilia amane disu, “Isala: ili Hina Gode! Amo hou da abuliba: le doaga: bela: ? Abuliba: le Bediamini fi da Isala: ili sogega gadenenewane fisi dagoi ba: sala: ?”
They said, "LORD God of Israel, why has this happened in Israel, that there should be today one tribe lacking in Israel?"
4 Golale, hahabedafa ilia da gilisili Hahawane Gilisili Olofole gobele salasu amola ohe hodo amo oloda, ilia hamoi, amo da: iya gogo gobele sali.
It happened on the next day that the people rose early, and built there an altar, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings.
5 Ilia da amane adole ba: i, “Isala: ili fi amo ganodini, sosogo fi afae da Misiba sogega Godema gilisisu amoga hame misibala: ?” (Ilia da musa: gasa bagade sema hamosu. Amo nowa fi da Misiba moilai gilisisu amoga hame misi ganiaba, ilia da amo dunu ili medole legela: loba.)
The children of Israel said, "Who is there among all the tribes of Israel who did not come up in the assembly to the LORD?" For they had made a great oath concerning anyone who did not come up to the LORD to Mizpah, saying, "He shall surely be put to death."
6 Isala: ili dunu da bu ilia olalali Bediamini dunu ilima asigi galu. Ilia da amane sia: i, “Wali eso, Isala: ili fi afadafa da fisi dagoi.
The children of Israel grieved for Benjamin their brother, and said, "There is one tribe cut off from Israel this day.
7 Ninia da Bediamini dunu esala, amoga uda ima: ne adi hamoma: bela: ? Bai ninia Hina Godema sema bagade hamoi dagoi, amo ninia uda mano ilima hamedafa imunu.”
How shall we do for wives for those who remain, seeing we have sworn by the LORD that we will not give them of our daughters to wives?"
8 Ilia da nowa gilisisu da Misiba gilisisuga hame misi, amo adole ba: loba, dunu da Ya: ibese moilai Gilia: de soge ganodini esalu, amo da hame misi ilia da nabi.
They said, "What one is there of the tribes of Israel who did not come up to the LORD to Mizpah?" Look, no one came to the camp from Jabesh Gilead to the assembly.
9 Amola ilia da dadi gagui gilisima: ne dio wele sia: noba, Ya: ibese dunu da hame misi.
For when the people were numbered, look, there were none of the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead there.
10 Amaiba: le, ilia da 1,200 gasa bagade dunu amo Ya: ibese moilaiga asunasi. Ilia da ilima amane sia: i, “Ya: ibese dunu huluane, uda amola mano medole legema.
The congregation sent there twelve thousand men of the most valiant, and commanded them, saying, "Go and strike the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead with the edge of the sword, with the women and the little ones.
11 Dunu huluane, dunu mano amola uda huluane amo da dunuma fi, amo huluane medole legema.”
This is the thing that you shall do: you shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman who has slept with a man, but the virgins you are to keep alive." And they did so.
12 Ya: ibese moilai ganodini, ilia da a: fini amola uda mano amo da dunuma hame gilisili golai, 400 agoane ba: i. Ilia da amo Siailou abula moilai Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini, amoga oule misi.
They found among the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead four hundred young virgins who had never slept with a man; and they brought them to the camp to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
13 Amalalu, Isala: ili gilisisu da Bediamini dunu amo da Limone Gelega esalu, ilima sia: adole iasi. Ilia da gegesu fisili, olofole gousa: su hamoma: ne sia: i.
The whole congregation sent and spoke to the people of Benjamin who were in the rock of Rimmon, and proclaimed peace to them.
14 Bediamini dunu da bu misini, Isala: ili fi eno da Ya: ibese uda mano ilia hame medole legei amo ilima i. Be ilima iabe idi da defele hame ba: i.
Benjamin returned at that time; and they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh Gilead: and yet so they weren't enough for them.
15 Hina Gode da Isala: ili fi ilia habelegele fi afadafa, amo da afafai dagoiba: le, ilia da Bediamini dunuma asigi galu.
The people grieved for Benjamin, because the LORD had made a gap in the tribes of Israel.
16 Amaiba: le, ilia ouligisu dunu da amane sia: i, “Uda eno da Bediamini fi ganodini hame esala. Ninia da habodane ilia uda lamusa: ilima ima: bela: ?
Then the elders of the congregation said, "How shall we provide wives for those who remain, since the women of Benjamin have been destroyed?"
17 Isala: ili da fi fagoyale gala. Afadafa fisimu da hamedei. Bediamini fi esaloma: ne, ninia logo hogoi helemu da defea.
They said, "How will an inheritance remain for the survivors of Benjamin, that a tribe not be blotted out from Israel.
18 Be ilia da ninia uda mano lamu da hamedei. Bai ninia da sema bagade hamoi. Nowa da ea uda mano Bediamini dunuma iasea, ninia da ema gagabusu aligima: ne ilegei dagoi.”
However we may not give them wives of our daughters, for the children of Israel had sworn, saying, 'Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin.'"
19 Amalalu, ilia da agoane dawa: i, “Hina Gode Ea Lolo Nasu Siailou moilaiga da gadenesa galebe.” (Siailou da Bedelehemega gagoe (north) gala. E da Lebouna amoga gagoe (south) amola logo amo da Bedele fisili Siegeme doaga: sa amo ea eso mabe la: idiga gala.)
They said, "Look, there is a feast of the LORD from year to year in Shiloh, which is on the north of Bethel, on the east side of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah."
20 Ilia da Bediamini dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia waini efe sogebi amo ganodini wamoaligili, ouesaloma.
They commanded the people of Benjamin, saying, "Go and lie in wait in the vineyards,
21 Siailou a: fini ilia da lolo nasu ganodini gosa: musa: masea, dilia waini efe aligisu fisili, dilia afae afae uda lamusa: ha: giwane gagulaligima. Amola amo uda dilia Bediamini sogega bu oule masa.
and watch. If the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards, and each man catch his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.
22 Be ilia eda o olalali da dilima sia: ga gegemusa: masea, ilima amane sia: ma, ‘Ninia da amo a: fini ili lamu da defeala: ? Bai ninia da gegesu ganodini amo a: fini hame lai. Amola dilia da amo uda mano ninima udigili hame iba: le, dilia sema hamoi amo hame wadela: lesiba: le, gagabusu aligima: ne dilima hame dialumu.’”
It shall be, when their fathers or their brothers come to complain to us, that we will say to them, 'Grant them graciously to us, because we didn't take wives for each man in battle, neither did you give them to them, otherwise you would now be guilty.'"
23 Bediamini dunu da ilia sia: i defele hamoi. Ilia da afae afae Siailou a: fini amo da siogolalu amo lale, gisawane asi. Ilia da ilia sogega asili, ilia moilai bu gaguli, fi galu.
The people of Benjamin did so, and took them wives, according to their number, of those who danced, whom they carried off. They went and returned to their inheritance, built the cities, and lived in them.
24 Amola Isala: ili fi dunu eno da fisili asili, ilia fi amola sosogo fi da ilia sogedafa amoga buhagi.
The children of Israel departed there at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance.
25 Amo esoha, Isala: ili soge ganodini da hina bagade dunu hame esalu. Dunu huluane da afae afae hi hanaiga fawane hamosu. Sia: Ama Dagoi
In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
