< Sudcov 19 >
1 Stalo se také toho času, když krále nebylo v Izraeli, že muž nějaký Levíta, jsa pohostinu při straně hory Efraimské, pojal sobě ženu ženinu z Betléma Judova.
Now in those days, when there was no king in Israel, a certain Levite was living in the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he got for himself a servant-wife from Beth-lehem-judah.
2 Kterážto ženina smilnila u něho. I odešla od něho do domu otce svého do Betléma Judova, a byla tam plné čtyři měsíce.
And his servant-wife was angry with him, and went away from him to her father's house at Beth-lehem-judah, and was there for four months.
3 Vstav pak muž její, šel za ní, aby namluvě ji, zase ji přivedl, maje s sebou mládence svého a dva osly. Tedy ona uvedla jej do domu otce svého. Kteréhož když uzřel otec té děvky, zradoval se z příchodu jeho.
Then her husband got up and went after her, with the purpose of talking kindly to her, and taking her back with him; he had with him his young man and two asses: and she took him into her father's house, and her father, when he saw him, came forward to him with joy.
4 I zdržel jej tchán jeho, otec té děvky, tak že pozůstal u něho za tři dni. Tu také jídali i píjeli i nocovali.
And his father-in-law, the girl's father, kept him there for three days; and they had food and drink and took their rest there.
5 Dne pak čtvrtého, když tím raněji vstali, vstal i on, aby odšel. Tedy řekl otec té děvky k zeti svému: Posilni se kouskem chleba, a potom půjdete.
Now on the fourth day they got up early in the morning and he made ready to go away; but the girl's father said to his son-in-law, Take a little food to keep up your strength, and then go on your way.
6 Sedli tedy a pojedli oba spolu, a napili se. Potom řekl otec děvky k muži: Posediž medle, nýbrž pobuď přes noc, a buď mysli veselé.
So seating themselves they had food and drink, the two of them together; and the girl's father said to the man, If it is your pleasure, take your rest here tonight, and let your heart be glad.
7 Když pak vstal ten muž, chtěje předce jíti, mocí jej zdržel test jeho. A tak se vrátil a zůstal tu přes noc.
And the man got up to go away, but his father-in-law would not let him go, so he took his rest there again for the night.
8 Potom dne pátého vstal tím raněji, aby se bral. I řekl otec té děvky: Posilň se, prosím. I prodlili, až se den nachýlil, nebo jedli oba.
Then early on the morning of the fifth day he got up to go away; but the girl's father said, Keep up your strength; so the two of them had a meal, and the man and his woman and his servant did not go till after the middle of the day.
9 Tedy vstal muž ten, aby šel, on i ženina jeho i mládenec jeho. I řekl mu tchán jeho, otec děvky: Aj, již se den nachýlil k večerou, medle zůstaňte přes noc; aj, dokonává se den, pobuď přes noc zde, a buď mysli veselé, a zítra tím raněji vypravíte se na cestu svou, a půjdeš k příbytku svému.
And when they got up to go away, his father-in-law, the girl's father, said to him, Now evening is coming on, so do not go tonight; see, the day is almost gone; take your rest here and let your heart be glad, and tomorrow early, go on your way back to your house.
10 On pak nechtěl zůstati přes noc, ale vstav, odšel, a přišel proti Jebus, jenž jest Jeruzalém, a s ním dva oslové s břemeny i ženina jeho.
But the man would not be kept there that night, and he got up and went away and came opposite to Jebus (which is Jerusalem); and he had with him the two asses, ready for travelling, and his woman.
11 Když pak byli blízko Jebus, a den se velmi nachýlil, řekl mládenec pánu svému: Poď, prosím, obraťme se do města toho Jebuzejského, abychom v něm přenocovali.
When they got near Jebus the day was far gone; and the servant said to his master, Now let us go from our road into this town of the Jebusites and take our night's rest there.
12 Jemuž odpověděl pán jeho: Neobrátíme se do města cizozemců, kteréž není synů Izraelských, ale půjdeme až do Gabaa.
But his master said to him, We will not go out of our way into a strange town, whose people are not of the children of Israel; but we will go on to Gibeah.
13 Řekl ještě mládenci svému: Poď, abychom přišli k některému z těch míst, a zůstali přes noc v Gabaa aneb v Ráma.
And he said to his servant, Come, let us go on to one of these places, stopping for the night in Gibeah or Ramah.
14 Pomíjejíce tedy, odešli, a zapadlo jim slunce blízko Gabaa, kteréž jest Beniaminských.
So they went on their way; and the sun went down when they were near Gibeah in the land of Benjamin.
15 I obrátili se tam, aby vejdouce, zůstali přes noc v Gabaa. A když tam všel, posadil se na ulici města, proto že nebyl, kdo by je přijal do domu a dal jim nocleh.
And they went off the road there with the purpose of stopping for the night in Gibeah: and he went in, seating himself in the street of the town, for no one took them into his house for the night.
16 A aj, muž starý vracoval se od práce své s pole u večer, kterýž také byl s hory Efraimovy, a bydlil pohostinu v Gabaa; ale lidé místa toho byli synové Jemini.
Now when it was evening they saw an old man coming back from his work in the fields; he was from the hill-country of Ephraim and was living in Gibeah: but the men of the place were Benjamites.
17 A když pozdvihl očí svých, uzřel muže toho pocestného na ulici města. I řekl jemu ten stařec: Kam se béřeš, a odkud jdeš?
And when he saw the traveller in the street of the town, the old man said, Where are you going? and where do you come from?
18 Jemuž odpověděl: Jdeme z Betléma Judova až k stranám hory Efraimovy, odkudž jsem; nebo jsem byl odšel do Betléma Judova. Jduť pak do domu Hospodinova, a není žádného, kdo by mne přijal do domu;
And he said to him, We are on our way from Beth-lehem-judah to the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim: I came from there and went to Beth-lehem-judah: now I am on my way back to my house, but no man will take me into his house.
19 Ješto mám i slámu a obrok pro osly své, tolikéž i chléb, ano i víno pro sebe a děvku tvou, a mládence, kterýž jest s služebníkem tvým, tak že v ničemž nemáme nedostatku.
But we have dry grass and food for our asses, as well as bread and wine for me, and for the woman, and for the young man with us: we have no need of anything.
20 I řekl muž ten starý: Měj ty pokoj. Čehoť se koli nedostává, nechť já to opatřím, ty toliko na ulici nezůstávej přes noc.
And the old man said, Peace be with you; let all your needs be my care; only do not take your rest in the street.
21 Tedy uvedl jej do domu svého, a obrok dal oslům; potom umyvše nohy své, jedli a pili.
So he took them into his house and gave the asses food; and after washing their feet they took food and drink.
22 A když očerstvili srdce své, aj, muži města toho, muži nešlechetní, obklíčivše dům, tloukli na dvéře a mluvili tomu muži starci, hospodáři domu, řkouce: Vyveď muže toho, kterýž všel do domu tvého, abychom ho poznali.
While they were taking their pleasure at the meal, the good-for-nothing men of the town came round the house, giving blows on the door; and they said to the old man, the master of the house, Send out that man who came to your house, so that we may take our pleasure with him.
23 K nimžto vyšed muž ten, hospodář domu, řekl jim: Nikoli, bratří moji, nečiňte, prosím, zlého, poněvadž všel ten muž do domu mého, neprovoďte nešlechetnosti té.
So the man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said, No, my brothers, do not this evil thing; this man has come into my house, and you are not to do him this wrong.
24 Aj, dceru svou, kteráž pannou jest, a ženinu jeho, ty hned vyvedu, i ponížíte jich, aneb učiníte jim, což se vám za dobré vidí; jen muži tomu nečiňte věci té hanebné.
See, here is my daughter, a virgin, and his servant-wife: I will send them out for you to take them and do with them whatever you will. But do no such thing of shame to this man.
25 Ale nechtěli ho uposlechnouti muži ti. Pojav tedy muž ten ženinu svou, vyvedl ji k nim ven, i poznali ji, a zle jí požívali přes celou noc až do jitra; potom pustili ji, když počínalo zasvitávati.
But the men would not give ear to him: so the man took his woman and sent her out to them; and they took her by force, using her for their pleasure all night till the morning; and when dawn came they let her go.
26 V svitání pak přišla žena ta, a padši, ležela u dveří domu toho muže, kdež byl pán její, až se rozednilo.
Then at the dawn of day the woman came, and, falling down at the door of the man's house where her master was, was stretched there till it was light.
27 Když pak vstal pán její ráno, otevřev dvéře domu, vycházel, aby se bral dále cestou svou. A aj, žena ta, ženina jeho, ležela u dveří domu, a ruce její byly na prahu.
In the morning her master got up, and opening the door of the house went out to go on his way; and he saw his servant-wife stretched on the earth at the door of the house with her hands on the step.
28 Jížto řekl: Vstaň, a poďme. A nic neodpověděla. Vzav tedy ji na osla, a vstav muž ten, odšel k místu svému.
And he said to her, Get up and let us be going; but there was no answer; so he took her up and put her on the ass, and went on his way and came to his house.
29 Když pak přišel do domu svého, vzal meč, a pochytiv ženinu svou, rozsekal ji s kostmi jejími na dvanácte kusů, a rozeslal ji po všech končinách Izraelských.
And when he had come to his house, he got his knife, and took the woman, cutting her up bone by bone into twelve parts, which he sent through all Israel.
30 A bylo, že kdožkoli uzřel, pravil: Nikdy se nestalo ani vidíno bylo co podobného od toho času, jakž vyšli synové Izraelští z země Egyptské, až do tohoto dne. Posuďte toho pilně, poraďte se a promluvte o to.
And he gave orders to the men whom he sent, saying, This is what you are to say to all the men of Israel, Has ever an act like this been done from the day when the children of Israel came out of Egypt to this day? Give thought to it, turning it over in your minds, and give your opinion of it.
