And his concubine played ye whore there, and went away from him vnto her fathers house to Beth-lehem Iudah, and there continued the space of foure moneths.
3 Ajipa chu Bethlehem jon dingin akipat doh in amanu chu gajol lungdam’a hin kile puikit agot ahi. Aman sangan kopkhat toh alhachapa chu ana kipuijin ahi. Ama ajinu pa in agalhun chun ajinu pa chun ngailutna neitah in anasangin ahi.
And her husband arose and went after her, to speake friendly vnto her, and to bring her againe: he had also his seruant with him, and a couple of asses: and she brought him vnto her fathers house, and when the yong womans father sawe him, he reioyced of his comming.
4 Anupa pachun nichomkhat beh umdingin ana ngehin ahi. Hijeh chun, ama chu nithum anichongin, aneuvin, adonnun chuleh ajan geh un ahi.
And his father in lawe, the yong womans father reteined him: and he abode with him three dayes: so they did eate and drinke, and lodged there.
5 Ni li channi chun amapa chu matah in athouvin cheding akigotan, ahinla anupa pachun amapa komma chun “Nache kah un bu themkhat beh gahne kitnun,” atin ahi.
And when the fourth day came, they arose earely in the morning, and he prepared to depart: then the yong womans father said vnto his sonne in lawe, Comfort thine heart with a morsel of bread, and then go your way.
6 Hijeh chun amani jong atoukit lhonnin themkhat anelhon tan ahi. Hijouchun numeinu pachun hiti hin ahin seikit in, “Jankhat beh gehkit inlang kicholdo kit’un ati.”
So they sate downe, and did eate and drinke both of them together. And the yong womans father said vnto the man, Be content, I pray thee, and tary all night, and let thine heart be merie.
7 Levi pachu akipatdoh in achegotan ahileh anupa pan aum kit nadiuvin angeh teitei jengin ahileh ajona in anom’in jankhat ageh kittai.
And when the man rose vp to depart, his father in lawe was earnest: therefore he returned, and lodged there.
8 Ni nga channin amachu matah in athouvin chedingin akigotai, ahin numeinu pachun, “Nehthei themkhat beh nenlang nilhah lamleh chenauvin nate” tin ahin seikit’in ahi. Hichun amaho chun nehkhomna aneikit’un ahi.
And he arose vp earely the fifth day to depart, and the yong womans father saide, Comfort thine heart, I pray thee: and they taryed vntill after midday, and they both did eate.

But the man would not tarry, but arose and departed, and came ouer against Iebus, (which is Ierusalem) and his two asses laden, and his concubine were with him.
11 Jebus anaiphat’in agei thimlheh tan alhachapa chun akom’ah chun “Jebus khopia hin kinga pa uhitin, jan geh taote” ati.
When they were neere to Iebus, the day was sore spent, and the seruant said vnto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let vs turne into this citie of the Iebusites, and lodge all night there.
12 Apakaipan “Hithei ponte Israel mi um nalou gamchom mite khopia igeh theilou diu ahi,” hiche sang chun Gibeah lam ana jonsuh taohite.
And his master answered him, We will not turne into the citie of strangers that are not of the children of Israel, but we will goe forth to Gibeah.
13 Hungin Gibeah ahilouleh Ramah lhuntei go uhitin hiche khopiho khatpen pennahin gehnao hite” ati.
And he said vnto his seruant, Come, and let vs drawe neere to one of these places, that wee may lodge in Gibeah or in Ramah.
14 Hitichun achetaove. Gibeah agalhun uchun nisalhum ding kon ahitai, Gibeah chu Benjamin gamsunga khopi khat ahi.
So they went forward vpon their way, and the sunne went downe vpon them neere to Gibeah, which is in Beniamin.
15 Hilai mun achun akinga uvin jan-geh ding in akigo tauvin ahi. Koiman ainna lhunsah dinga akoulou jeh uchun hiche khopi lamlen khatna chun akicholnga tauvin ahi.
Then they turned thither to goe in and lodge in Gibeah: and when he came, he sate him downe in a streete of the citie: for there was no man that tooke them into his house to lodging.
16 Hiche janchun tehse alouva anatohna akon a-inlam hinjonkhat aumin ahi. Amachu Ephraim thinglhang akonna Gibeah a hung kichaolut ahin, hiche khopia chenghohi Benjamin phungmi ahiuve.
And beholde, there came an old man from his work out of the field at euen, and the man was of mount Ephraim, but dwelt in Gibeah: and the men of the place were the children of Iemini.
17 Amaho chu khopi lamsom’a anatou chu amu phatnin “Hoiya hungkon hoilang jonding nahiuvam?” tin anadongin ahi.
And when he had lift vp his eyes, he sawe a wayfairing man in the streetes of the citie: then this olde man sayde, Whither goest thou, and whence camest thou?

Although we haue straw and prouader for our asses, and also bread and wine for me and thine handmayde, and for the boy that is with thy seruant: we lacke nothing.
20 Tehsepu chun, “Kei kommah geh tauvin, keiman nangaichat diu jouse nape naovinge, amavang hiche lamsom’a vang hin jan-geh hihbeh un,” ati.
And the olde man sayde, Peace bee with thee: as for all that thou lackest, shalt thou finde with me: onely abide not in the streete al night.
21 Hiti chun a-in na apuijin asangan teni jong chu avahtan ahi. Amahon akeng akisilluva an aneh uva adonjou phat’un,
So he brought him into his house, and gaue fodder vnto the asses: and they washed their feete, and did eate and drinke.

Behold, here is my daughter, a virgine, and his concubine: them wil I bring out nowe, and humble them, and doe with them what seemeth you good: but to this man doe not this villenie.
25 Ahinlah amahon angaideh pouvin ahi. Hijeh chun Levi pachun athaikemnu chu kotpamma asondoh in ahileh, khopi mitechun amanu chu khovah lhah tokah in kichepnan aneitauvin ahi. Khovah then then chun amanu chu alhakang bep’un ahi.
But the men woulde not hearken to him: therefore ye man tooke his concubine, and brought her out vnto them: and they knewe her and abused her all the night vnto the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her goe.
26 Khovah lhahchun amanu chu ajipa lhunna a chun ahung kilen kotbul aphahchun alhulhop tan khovah lhah geijin ana kijamtan ahi.
So the woman came in the dawning of the day, and fell downe at the doore of the mans house where her Lord was, till the light day.
27 Ajipan gahpot dinga kotchu ahin honleh athaikemnu chu kotbulla anakijam jengin akhut teni chu tolla anakiphatho jengin ahi.
And her lorde arose in the morning, and opened the doores of the house, and went out to goe his way, and beholde, the woman his concubine was dead at the doore of the house and her handes lay vpon the thresholde.

And hee said vnto her, Vp and let vs goe: but shee answered not. Then he tooke her vp vpon the asse, and the man rose vp, and went vnto his place.
