Judges 19
1 Also in those dayes, when there was no king in Israel, a certaine Leuite dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, and tooke to wife a concubine out of Beth-lehem Iudah,
Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ha tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe ai ʻa e [tangata ]Livai ʻe taha naʻe ʻāunofo ʻi he potu ʻoe moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi, pea naʻa ne ʻomi ha sinifu ke na feangainga mei Petelihema Siuta.
2 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.
Pea naʻe fai angahala ʻe hono fefine kiate ia, pea hola ia meiate ia ki he fale ʻo ʻene tamai ʻi Petelihema Siuta, pea naʻe ʻi ai ia ʻi he māhina kātoa ʻe fā.
3 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.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake hono husepāniti, pea ʻalu ko hono kumi, ke ne lea ʻofa kiate ia, pea ke toe ʻomi ia, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻene tamaioʻeiki, pea mo e ʻasi ʻe ua: pea ne ʻomi ia ki he fale ʻo ʻene tamai: pea ʻi he mamata kiate ia ʻae tamai ʻae fefine, naʻe fiefia ia ke na feʻiloaki.
4 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.
Pea naʻe taʻofi ia ʻe heʻene tamai ʻi he fono, ʻaia ko e tamai ʻae fefine; pea naʻa na nonofo mo ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu: ko ia naʻa nau kai, mo inu, pea mohe ʻi ai.
5 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.
Pea hoko ki hono fā ʻoe ʻaho, pea ʻi heʻenau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he pongipongi ke ʻalu, naʻe tuʻu hake ia ke ʻalu: pea pehē ʻe he tamai ʻae fefine ki hono foha ʻi he fono, “Ke ke fakafiemālieʻi ho loto ʻaki ʻae konga mā, pea ke toki fai ho fononga.”
6 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.
Pea naʻa nau nofo pea kai mo inu fakataha ʻakinaua: he naʻe pehē ʻe he tamai ʻae fefine ki he tangata, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe ke ke fiemālie, pea ke tatali he poōni, pea ke fakafiefia ki ho loto.”
7 And when the man rose vp to depart, his father in lawe was earnest: therefore he returned, and lodged there.
Pea ʻi he tuʻu hake ʻae tangata ke ʻalu, naʻe ueʻi mālohi ia ʻe heʻene tamai ʻi he fono: ko ia ne ne toe mohe ʻi ai.
8 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.
Pea tuʻu hengihengi hake ia ʻi hono nima ʻoe ʻaho ke ʻalu: pea pehē ʻe he tamai ʻae fefine kiate ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, fakafiemālieʻi ho loto.” Pea naʻa nau tatali ʻo aʻu ki he hoʻatā efiafi nai, pea na kai fakatouʻosi pe.
9 Afterwarde when the man arose to depart with his concubine and his seruant, his father in lawe, the yong womans father said vnto him, Beholde nowe, the day draweth towarde euen: I pray you, tary all night: beholde, the sunne goeth to rest: lodge here, that thine heart may be merie, and to morowe get you earely vpon your way, and goe to thy tent.
Pea ʻi he tuʻu hake ʻae tangata ke ʻalu, mo hono uaifi, mo ʻene tamaioʻeiki, naʻe lea ʻene tamai ʻi he fono ʻaia ko e tamai ʻae fefine, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko eni, vakai, ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ʻae ʻaho ke efiafi, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe tau mohe: vakai, kuo tei ʻosi ʻae ʻaho, tau mohe ʻi heni, ke fiemālie ho loto; pea ʻalu hengihengi ʻapongipongi ʻi homou hala, koeʻuhi ke ke hoko atu ki ho ʻapi.”
10 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.
Ka naʻe ʻikai tatali ʻe he tangata ʻi he pō ko ia, ka naʻe tuʻu hake ia ʻo ʻalu, pea hoko ʻo feʻunga mo Sepusi, ʻaia ko Selūsalema; pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae ʻasi ʻe ua mo e hekaʻanga, pea mo hono uaifi foki.
11 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.
Pea ʻi heʻenau ofi ki Sepusi, kuo teitei ʻosi ʻae ʻaho, pea pehē ʻe he tamaioʻeiki ki heʻene ʻeiki, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke tau afe ki he kolo ni ʻoe kau Sepusi, pea mohe ʻi ai.”
12 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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene ʻeiki kiate ia, “ʻE ʻikai te tau afe eni ki he kolo ʻoe kakai kehe, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; ka tau mole atu ki Kipea.
13 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.
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki, Ko eni ke tau ʻunuʻunu atu ki he potu ni ʻe taha ke tau mohe ai he poōni, ʻi Kipea, pe ʻi Lama.”
14 So they went forward vpon their way, and the sunne went downe vpon them neere to Gibeah, which is in Beniamin.
Pea naʻa nau ʻalu ai pe ʻi honau hala; pea naʻe tō ʻae laʻā ʻi heʻenau ofi ki Kipea, ʻaia ʻoku kau ki Penisimani.
15 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.
Pea naʻa nau afe ki ai, ke ʻalu ʻo mohe ʻi Kipea: pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu ki ai, naʻe nofo ki lalo ia ʻi he hala ʻoe kolo: he naʻe ʻikai fakaafe ia ʻe ha tokotaha ki hono fale ke mohe.
16 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.
Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ha motuʻa mei heʻene ngāue ʻi he ngoue ʻi he efiafi, ko e tangata foki ia mei he moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi; pea naʻe ʻāunofo ia ʻi Kipea: ka ko e kau tangata ʻoe potu ko ia ko e kau Penisimani.
17 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?
Pea ʻi heʻene hanga hake naʻa ne mamata ki he tangata fononga ʻi he hala ʻoe kolo: pea pehē ʻe he motuʻa kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻalu ki fē? Pea kuo ke haʻu mei fē?”
18 And hee answered him, Wee came from Beth-lehem Iudah, vnto the side of Mout Ephraim: from thence am I: and I went to Beth-lehem Iudah, and go now to the house of the Lord: and no man receiueth mee to house,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻOku mau fononga mei Petelihema Siuta, ki he potu ʻoe moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi; ʻaia ʻoku ou haʻu mei ai: pea ne u ʻalu ki Petelihema Siuta, ka ʻoku ou ʻalu ni ki he fale ʻo Sihova; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata ke fakaafe au ki hono fale.
19 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.
Ka ʻoku ai ʻae mohuku mo e meʻakai ki heʻemau fanga ʻasi; pea ʻoku ai mo e mā mo e uaine kiate au mo hoʻo kaunanga, pea ki he tangata talavou ʻaia ʻoku ʻi hoʻo ongo tamaioʻeiki: ʻoku ʻikai te mau masiva.”
20 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.
Pea pehē ʻe he motuʻa, “Ke ke fiemālie pe kae tuku kiate au hoʻo masiva kotoa pē kaeʻoua naʻa ke mohe ʻi he hala.”
21 So he brought him into his house, and gaue fodder vnto the asses: and they washed their feete, and did eate and drinke.
Ko ia naʻa ne ʻomi ia ki hono fale, ʻo ne ʻatu ʻae meʻakai ki he fanga ʻasi; pea naʻa nau fufulu honau vaʻe, pea kai mo inu.
22 And as they were making their hearts merie, beholde, the men of the citie, wicked men beset the house round about, and smote at the doore, and spake to this olde man the master of the house saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house that we may knowe him.
Pea ʻi heʻenau fakafiefiaʻi honau loto, vakai, naʻe ʻoho mai ʻo kāpui ʻae fale ʻe he kau tangata ʻoe kolo, ʻae fānau ʻoe kovi, ʻo tuki ki he matapā, pea naʻa nau lea ki he ʻeiki ʻoe fale, ʻae tangata motuʻa, ʻo pehē, “ʻOmi ʻae tangata kituʻa ʻaia naʻe haʻu ki ho fale ke mau ʻilo ia.”
23 And this man the master of ye house went out vnto the, and said vnto them, Nay my brethre, do not so wickedly, I pray you: seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this villenie.
Pea naʻe ʻalu kituʻa ʻae tangata, ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe fale kiate kinautolu, mo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai, ʻe hoku kāinga, ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ʻoua naʻa mou fai kovi pehē; ko e meʻa ʻi he haʻu ʻae tangata ni ki hoku fale, ʻoua naʻa mou fai ʻae vale ni.
24 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.
Vakai, ko eni hoku ʻofefine ko e taʻahine, pea mo e fefine ʻaʻana te u ʻomi ʻakinaua ni, pea mou fakavaivai ʻakinaua, pea fai kiate kinaua, ʻaia ʻoku lelei kiate kimoutolu: kaeʻoua naʻa mou fai ki he tangata ni ha meʻa kovi lahi pehē ni.”
25 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.
Ka naʻe ʻikai fietokanga ki ai ʻe he kau tangata: ko ia naʻe toʻo ai ʻe he tangata hono fefine ʻo ʻomi ia kituʻa kiate kinautolu; pea naʻa nau ʻilo ia, ʻo fai kovi kiate ia ʻi he pō kotoa ko ia ʻo aʻu ki he pongipongi: pea ʻi he hengihengi hake, naʻa nau tukuange ia ke ʻalu.
26 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.
Pea haʻu ai ʻae fefine ʻi he mafoa ʻae ata ʻoe ʻaho ʻo tō ki he matapā ʻoe fale ʻoe tangata naʻe ʻi ai ʻene ʻeiki, ke ʻoua ke ʻaho.
27 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.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻene ʻeiki ʻi he pongipongi, pea toʻo ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe fale, pea naʻe ʻalu ia kituʻa ke hoko hono fononga: pea vakai, ko e fefine, ko hono uaifi kuo tō ki lalo ia ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale, pea naʻe ala atu hono nima ki he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā.
28 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.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Tuʻu hake, pea ke tau ō.” Ka naʻe ʻikai siʻi ha lea. Pea hiki hake ia ʻe he tangata ʻo fakaheka ki he ʻasi, pea tuʻu hake ʻae tangata, ʻo fononga atu ki hono fonua.
29 And whe he was come to his house, he took a knife, and laid hand on his concubine, and deuided her in pieces with her bones into twelue parts, and sent her through all quarters of Israel.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki hono fale, naʻe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae hele, pea ne puke hono uaifi, pea tafaʻi ʻe ia ia mo hono ngaahi hui, ko e konga [sino ]ʻe hongofulu ma ua, pea naʻe ʻave ia ki he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli.
30 And all that saw it, said, There was no such thing done or seene since the time that the children of Israel came vp from the lande of Egypt vnto this day: consider the matter, consult and giue sentence.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, “Ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe mamata ki ai naʻa nau pehē, Kuo ʻikai mamata ʻe ha tokotaha ki ha meʻa pehē kuo fai, talu ʻae ʻaho naʻe ʻalu hake ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni: mou tokanga ki ai, fai ʻae alea, pea fakahā homou loto.”
