Judges 19
1 And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite sojourning on the farther side of the hill-country of Ephraim, who took to him a concubine out of Beth-lehem in Judah.
Ndalogo jo-Israel ne onge gi ruoth. Koro ja-Lawi mane odak e chuny piny e gode mag Efraim nokendo nyako moro moa Bethlehem e piny Juda.
2 And his concubine played the harlot against him, and went away from him unto her father's house to Beth-lehem in Judah, and was there the space of four months.
Dhakono wuodhe ne ok ber, omiyo noweyo ngʼatno modok dalagi e od wuon mare Bethlehem e piny Juda. Bangʼ kane osebedo kuno kuom dweche angʼwen,
3 And her husband arose, and went after her, to speak kindly unto her, to bring her back, having his servant with him, and a couple of asses; and she brought him into her father's house; and when the father of the damsel saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.
chwore nodhi ire mondo olombe gi wach oduogi. Ne en-gi jatichne kod punde ariyo. Notere nyaka e od wuon mare, kendo ka wuon mare nonene, norwake gi mor.
4 And his father-in-law, the damsel's father, retained him; and he abode with him three days; so they did eat and drink, and lodged there.
Jaduongʼne, ma wuon nyako, nosaye mondo omed limogi; omiyo nobedo kanyo kuom ndalo adek, kochiemo kendo kometho, kendo konindo kanyo.
5 And it came to pass on the fourth day, that they arose early in the morning, and he rose up to depart; and the damsel's father said unto his son-in-law: 'Stay thy heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward ye shall go your way.'
Chiengʼ mar angʼwen ne gichiewo gokinyi ka giikore mar wuok, to jaduongʼne nowachone niya, “We iyud gimoro icham; eka idhi.”
6 So they sat down, and did eat and drink, both of them together; and the damsel's father said unto the man: 'Be content, I pray thee, and tarry all night, and let thy heart be merry.'
Omiyo ji ariyogo nobedo piny mochiemo kendo ometho. Bangʼe jaduongʼne nowachone niya, “Yie iri kawuono mondo iyud mor.”
7 And the man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he lodged there again.
Kendo kane ngʼatno oa malo mondo odhi, jaduongʼne nosaye, omiyo nonindo kanyo otienono.
8 And he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; and the damsel's father said: 'Stay thy heart, I pray thee, and tarry ye until the day declineth'; and they did eat, both of them.
Chiengʼ mar abich gokinyi, kane ochungo mondo odhi, jaduongʼne nowachone niya, “Bed mamor. Rit nyaka odhiambo!” Omiyo ji ariyogo nochiemo kanyakla.
9 And when the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father-in-law, the damsel's father, said unto him: 'Behold, now the day draweth toward evening; tarry, I pray you, all night; behold, the day groweth to an end; lodge here, that thy heart may be merry; and to-morrow get you early on your way, that thou mayest go home.'
E kinde ma ngʼatno gi dhakono kod jatichne nowuok mondo odhiyo, jaduongʼne nowachonegi niya, “Sa koro ngʼeny, omiyo ninduru ka nikech piny oseyuso. Ninduru kendo ubed mamor eka kiny gokinyi uchiew mondo udog thuru.”
10 But the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and departed, and came over against Jebus — the same is Jerusalem; and there were with him a couple of asses saddled; his concubine also was with him.
To nikech ne ok odwar nindo kanyo kendo, ngʼatno nowuok mi ochiko yo Jebus (tiende ni, Jerusalem), gi pundege ariyo kod dhako morono.
11 When they were by Jebus — the day was far spent — the servant said unto his master: 'Come, I pray thee, and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.'
Kane gichopo machiegni gi Jebus e kinde mag angʼich welo, jatich nowachone ruodhe niya, “Bi, mondo waywe e dala maduongʼ mar Jebus kendo wanind kanyo.”
12 And his master said unto him: 'We will not turn aside into the city of a foreigner, that is not of the children of Israel; but we will pass over to Gibeah.'
Ruodhe nodwoke niya, “Ooyo. Ok wanadhi e dala maduongʼ mar jodak, ma joge ok jo-Israel. Wabiro dhi nyaka wachop Gibea.”
13 And he said unto his servant: 'Come and let us draw near to one of these places; and we will lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah.'
Nomedo owacho niya, “Bi, mondo watem ka wanyalo chopo Gibea kata Rama mondo wabuor wanindi e achiel kuom miergo.”
14 So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down upon them near to Gibeah, which belongeth to Benjamin.
Omiyo negidhi nyime giwuoth, kendo chiengʼ nopodho ka gichiegni chopo Gibea e piny Benjamin.
15 And they turned aside thither, to go in to lodge in Gibeah; and he went in, and sat him down in the broad place of the city; for there was no man that took them into his house to lodge.
Kane gichopo kanyo mondo gibuor, negidhi mi gibet e laru mar dala maduongʼ, to onge ngʼama norwakogi mondo giyud kar nindo.
16 And, behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even; now the man was of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.
Odhiambono jaduongʼ moro moa e piny gode mag Efraim, mane odak Gibea (joma nodak kanyo ne gin jo-Benjamin), nobiro kanyo koa tiyo e puothe.
17 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the broad place of the city; and the old man said: 'Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou?'
Kane ongʼiyo moneno jawuoth e laru mar dala maduongʼ, jaduongʼno nopenje niya, “Ua kanye, to udhi kanye?”
18 And he said unto him: 'We are passing from Beth-lehem in Judah unto the farther side of the hill-country of Ephraim; from thence am I, and I went to Beth-lehem in Judah, and I am now going to the house of the LORD; and there is no man that taketh me into his house.
Nodwoko niya, “Waa Bethlehem e piny Juda ka wadhi e chuny piny manie piny gode mag Efraim kuma adakie. Asebedo Bethlehem e piny Juda kendo koro adok e od Jehova Nyasaye. Onge ngʼama oserwaka e ode.
19 Yet there is both straw and provender for our asses; and there is bread and wine also for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man that is with thy servants; there is no want of any thing.'
Wan kaka wasumbinigi wan gi lum ma pundewa nyalo chamo kod makati gi divai moromowa; onge gima waremo.”
20 And the old man said: 'Peace be unto thee; howsoever let all thy wants lie upon me; only lodge not in the broad place.'
Jaduongʼno nowachonegi niya, “Orwaku e oda. We amiu gimoro amora ma udwaro. To kik unind e laru mar dala maduongʼni.”
21 So he brought him into his house, and gave the asses fodder; and they washed their feet, and did eat and drink.
Omiyo nodhi kode e ode mi opidho pundege. Bangʼ kane giselwoko tiendegi, nomigi gima ginyalo chamo kendo madho.
22 As they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain base fellows, beset the house round about, beating at the door; and they spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying: 'Bring forth the man that came into thy house, that we may know him.'
Kane pod gibedo gi mor e kindgi giwegi, jomoko ma timbegi mono mag dala maduongʼno nolworo odno. Negigoyo dhoot ka gikok ne jaduongʼ ma wuon odno niya, “Gol oko ngʼatno mane obiro e odi mondo waterre kode.”
23 And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them: 'Nay, my brethren, I pray you, do not so wickedly; seeing that this man is come into my house, do not this wanton deed.
Wuon odno nowuok oko mi owachonegi niya, “Ooyo, osiepena, kik utim tim mamonono. Nimar ngʼatni en wendona, kik utim gima rachno.
24 Behold, here is my daughter a virgin, and his concubine; I will bring them out now, and humble ye them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you; but unto this man do not so wanton a thing.'
Neuru, kawuru nyara ma pod ok ongʼeyo chwo, kod dhako moroni. Abiro golonugi oko sani mondo uterru kodgi; to ngʼatni to kik utimne gima rachno.”
25 But the men would not hearken to him; so the man laid hold on his concubine, and brought her forth unto them; and they knew her, and abused her all the night until the morning; and when the day began to spring, they let her go.
To jogi nodagi winje. Omiyo ja-Lawino nogolo chiege momiyogi, kendo negiterore kode githuon otieno duto, to kane ochopo kogwen, to ne giweye mondo odhi.
26 Then came the woman in the dawning of the day, and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, till it was light.
Kane ochopo gokinyi, dhakono nodok e ot kama ruodhe ne oninde, mogore piny e wangʼ dhoot kendo nonindo kanyo nyaka chiengʼ ochako rieny.
27 And her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way; and, behold, the woman his concubine was fallen down at the door of the house, with her hands upon the threshold.
Ka ruodhe nochiewo gokinyi kendo oyawo dhoot mondo mi owuog oko odhi nyime gi wuodhe, noyudo ka chiege onindo kanyo, kogore piny e nyim dhoot, ka lwetene oriere piny e kar dino cham.
28 And he said unto her. 'Up, and let us be going'; but none answered; then he took her up upon the ass; and the man rose up, and got him unto his place.
Nowachone niya, “Aa malo; wadhi.” To ne onge dwoko. Bangʼe ngʼatni noyieye e pundene kendo ne giwuok mondo gidog.
29 And when he was come into his house, he took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, limb by limb, into twelve pieces, and sent her throughout all the borders of Israel.
Kane ochopo dala, nokawo pala mokengogo chiege, fuoni ka fuoni migepe apar gariyo mi oorogi e gwenge duto mag Israel.
30 And it was so, that all that saw it said: 'Such a thing hath not happened nor been seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt unto this day; consider it, take counsel, and speak.'
Ngʼato angʼata mane oneno ma nowacho niya, “Gima chalo kama ne pok one kata timore, chakre ndalo mane jo-Israel oa Misri nyaka chil kawuono. Paruruane wachni kendo noneuru mondo unyiswa ane gima onego watim!”
