< Judges 21 >
1 Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpah, saying, There shall not any of us give his daughter to Benjamin to wife.
Ita, nagkari dagiti lallaki ti Israel idiay Mizpa, “Awan kadatayo ti mangipaasawa iti anakna a babai iti Benjaminita.”
2 And the people came to Bethel, and sat there till evening before God, and lifted up their voices, and wept bitterly.
Kalpasanna, napan dagiti tattao idiay Betel ket nagtugawda sadiay iti sangoanan ti Dios agingga iti rabii, ken nasaem a nagladingitda iti napigsa.
3 And they said, O Jehovah, the God of Israel, why has this come to pass in Israel, that there should be today one tribe lacking in Israel?
Kinunada, “O Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, apay a napasamak daytoy iti Israel, a maysa kadagiti tribumi ti awan tatta nga aldaw?”
4 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people rose early, and built there an altar, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings.
Iti sumaruno nga aldaw, nasapa a bimmangon dagiti tattao ket nangipatakderda iti altar sadiay ken nangidatonda kadagiti daton a mapuoran ken kadagiti daton a pakikappia.
5 And the sons of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel that did not come up in the assembly to Jehovah? For they had made a great oath concerning him who did not come up to Jehovah to Mizpah, saying, He shall surely be put to death.
Kinuna dagiti tattao ti Israel, “Siasino kadagiti amin a tribu ti Israel ti saan nga immay iti taripnong ni Yahweh?” Ta nangaramidda iti napateg a kari maipanggep iti siasinoman a saan a simmang-at kenni Yahweh idiay Mizpa. Kinunada, “Awan duadua a mapapatay isuna.”
6 And the sons of Israel regretted for Benjamin their brother, and said, There is one tribe cut off from Israel this day.
Naasian dagiti tattao ti Israel kadagiti kakabsatda a Benjaminita. Kinunada, “Ita nga aldaw, maysa a tribu ti naisina iti Israel.
7 What shall we do for wives for those who remain, since we have sworn by Jehovah that we will not give them of our daughters to wives?
Siasino ti mangipaay kadagiti asawaen dagidiay a nabati, agsipudta nagkaritayo kenni Yahweh a saantayo a palubosan ti siasinoman kadakuada a mangasawa kadagiti annaktayo a babbai?”
8 And they said, Which one is there of the tribes of Israel that did not come up to Jehovah to Mizpah? And, behold, there came none to the camp from Jabesh-gilead to the assembly.
Kinunada, “Siasino kadagiti tribu ti Israel ti saan a simmang-at kenni Yahweh idiay Mizpa?” Naduktalan nga awan ti immay iti panagtitipon manipud idiay Jabes Galaad.
9 For when the people were numbered, behold, there were none of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead there.
Ta idi naurnos dagiti tattao iti nasayaat, adtoy, awan kadagiti agnanaed idiay Jabes Galaad ti adda sadiay.
10 And the congregation sent there twelve thousand men of the most valiant, and commanded them, saying, Go and smite the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead with the edge of the sword, with the women and the little ones.
Nangibaon ti taripnong iti 12, 000 a katuturedan a lallaki a nabilin a mapanda idiay Jabes Galaad ket rautenda ida ken papatayenda ida, uray dagiti babbai ken ubbing.
11 And this is the thing that ye shall do: Ye shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman that has lain by man.
“Aramidenyo daytoy: masapul a papatayenyo ti tunggal lalaki ken tunggal babai a nakikaidda iti lalaki.”
12 And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins who had not known man by lying with him, and they brought them to the camp to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
Nakasarak dagiti lallaki iti 400 a babbalasang kadagiti agnanaed idiay Jabes Galaad a saan pulos a nakikaidda iti lalaki, ket impanda ida iti kampo idiay Silo, idiay Canaan.
13 And the whole congregation sent and spoke to the sons of Benjamin who were in the rock of Rimmon, and proclaimed peace to them.
Nangipatulod iti mensahe ti entero a taripnong ket imbagada kadagiti tattao ti Benjamin nga adda idiay bato ti Rimmon a makikapkappiada kadakuada.
14 And Benjamin returned at that time, and they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh-gilead. And even so they were not sufficient for them.
Isu a nagsubli dagiti Benjaminita iti dayta a tiempo ket naited kadakuada dagiti babbai idiay Jabes Galaad. Ngem awan ti umdas a babbai a para kadakuada amin.
15 And the people regretted for Benjamin, because Jehovah had made a breach in the tribes of Israel.
Nagbabawi dagiti tattao gapu iti napasamak iti Benjamin, gapu ta nangaramid ni Yahweh iti pannakabingay iti nagbabaetan dagiti tribu ti Israel.
16 Then the elders of the congregation said, What shall we do for wives for those who remain, since the women are destroyed out of Benjamin?
Ket kinuna dagiti mangidadaulo iti entero a taripnong, “Kasanotayo nga ibirukan dagiti nabati a Benjaminita kadagiti babbai nga asawaenda, agsipud ta napapatayen dagiti babbai ti Benjamin?”
17 And they said, There must be an inheritance for those who are escaped of Benjamin, that a tribe be not blotted out from Israel.
Kinunada, “Masapul nga adda ti tawid para kadagiti nakalasat iti Benjamin, tapno saan a madadael ti maysa a tribu iti Israel.
18 However we may not give them wives of our daughters, for the sons of Israel had sworn, saying, Cursed be he who gives a wife to Benjamin.
Saantayo a mabalin nga ikkan ida kadagiti asawaenda manipud kadagiti annaktayo a babbai. Ta nagkari dagiti tattao ti Israel, 'Mailunod koma ti siasinoman a mangted iti babai nga asawaen ti Benjamin.’”
19 And they said, Behold, there is a feast of Jehovah 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.
Isu a kinunada, “Ammoyo nga adda iti tinawen a fiesta para kenni Yahweh idiay Silo (nga adda iti amianan ti Betel, dayaen ti kalsada a sumang-at idiay Sikem manipud idiay Betel, ken abagatan ti Lebona).”
20 And they commanded the sons of Benjamin, saying, Go and lie in wait in the vineyards,
Binilinda dagiti lallaki ti Benjamin a kinunada, “Mapankayo aglemmeng iti nalimed ket aguraykayo kadagiti kaubasan.
21 and watch. And, behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come ye out of the vineyards, and catch for you every man his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.
Siputanyo ti oras a rummuar dagiti agsala a babbai manipud Silo, ket dardarasenyo a rummuar kadagiti kaubasan ket masapul a mangiguyod ti tunggal maysa kadakayo iti asawaenna manipud kadagiti babbai ti Silo, kalpasanna, agsublikayo iti daga ti Benjamin.
22 And 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 took not for each man of them his wife in battle, neither did ye give them to them, else ye would now be guilty.
Inton umay dagiti amma wenno kakabsatda a lallaki tapno agririda kadakami, ibagaminto kadakuada, “Maasikayo kadakami! Pagtalinaedenyo ida gapu ta saankami a nakaala kadagiti babbai a maasawa bayat ti gubat. Ket awan basolyo maipapan iti kari, gapu ta saanyo nga inted kadakuada dagiti annakyo.”'
23 And the sons of Benjamin did so, and took for them wives, according to their number, of those who danced, whom they carried off. And they went and returned to their inheritance, and built the cities, and dwelt in them.
Kasta ti inaramid dagiti tattao ti Benjamin, nangalada kadagiti asawaenda segun iti bilang a kasapulanda manipud kadagiti babbai nga agsasala, ket innalada ida tapno agbalin nga assawada. Napanda ket nagsublida iti lugar a tawidda; binangonda manen dagiti ili ket nagnaedda kadagitoy.
24 And the sons of Israel departed from there at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance.
Ket pinanawan dagiti tattao ti Israel dayta a lugar ket nagawidda, tunggal maysa iti bukodna a tribu ken puli, ken tunggal maysa iti bukodna a tawid.
25 In those days there was no king in Israel. Every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
Kadagidiay nga aldaw, awan ti ari ti Israel. Inaramid ti tunggal maysa ti nasayaat kadagiti bukodna a panagkita.
