< 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 lower edge of the mountain of Ephraim, who took to himself a concubine out of Beth-lechem-judah.
Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì Israẹli kò ní ọba. Ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí ń gbé ibi tí ó sá pamọ́ nínú àwọn agbègbè òkè Efraimu, mú àlè kan láti Bẹtilẹhẹmu ní Juda.
2 And his concubine became faithless unto him, and she went away from him unto her father's house to Beth-lechem-judah, and was there one year and four months.
Ṣùgbọ́n àlè rẹ̀ náà sì ṣe panṣágà sí i, òun fi sílẹ̀, ó sì padà lọ sí ilé baba rẹ̀ ní Bẹtilẹhẹmu ti Juda, ó sì wà ní ibẹ̀ ní ìwọ̀n oṣù mẹ́rin,
3 And then her husband arose, and went after her, to speak friendly unto her, to bring her back; and he had 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.
ọkọ rẹ̀ lọ sí ibẹ̀ láti rọ̀ ọ́ pé kí ó padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ òun. Nígbà tí ó ń lọ ó mú ìránṣẹ́ àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ méjì lọ́wọ́, obìnrin náà mú un wọ inú ilé baba rẹ̀ lọ, nígbà tí baba obìnrin náà rí i ó fi tayọ̀tayọ̀ gbà á.
4 And his father-in-law, the damsel's father, detained him; and he abode with him three days: and they ate and drank, and lodged there.
Àna rẹ̀, baba ọmọbìnrin náà rọ̀ ọ́, ó sì borí rẹ̀ láti dá a dúró fún ìgbà díẹ̀, òun sì dúró fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta, ó ń jẹ, ó ń mu, ó sì ń sùn níbẹ̀.
5 And it came to pass on the fourth day, that they arose early in the morning, and he rose up to depart; but the damsel's father said unto his son-in-law, Comfort thy heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward can ye go your way.
Ní ọjọ́ kẹrin, wọ́n dìde ní òwúrọ̀ kùtùkùtù òun sì múra láti padà lọ, ṣùgbọ́n baba ọmọbìnrin náà wí fún àna rẹ̀ pé, “Fi ohun jíjẹ díẹ̀ gbé inú ró nígbà náà kí ìwọ máa lọ.”
6 And they sat down, and both of them ate together and drank; and the damsel's father said unto the man, Do consent, I pray thee, and tarry all night, and let thy heart be merry.
Àwọn méjèèjì sì jùmọ̀ jókòó láti jọ jẹun àti láti jọ mu. Lẹ́yìn èyí ni baba ọmọbìnrin wí pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ dúró ní alẹ́ yìí kí o sì gbádùn ara rẹ.”
7 Still the man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he turned back and lodged there.
Nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà dìde láti máa lọ, baba ìyàwó rẹ̀ rọ̀ ọ́, torí náà ó sùn níbẹ̀ ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà.
8 And when he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart, the damsel's father said, Comfort thy heart, I pray thee, and tarry until the decline of the day: and both of them did eat.
Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ karùn-ún nígbà tí ó dìde láti lọ, baba ọmọbìnrin wí pé, “Fi oúnjẹ gbé ara ró. Dúró de ọ̀sán!” Àwọn méjèèjì sì jùmọ̀ jọ jẹun.
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 all night, I pray you: behold, it is the resting time of day, lodge here, and let thy heart be merry; and you may get early tomorrow on your way, and go then to thy tent.
Nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà, pẹ̀lú àlè àti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, dìde láti máa lọ, àna rẹ̀, baba ọmọbìnrin náà ní, “Wò ó ilẹ̀ ti ń ṣú lọ, dúró níbí, ọjọ́ ti lọ. Dúró kí o sì gbádùn ara rẹ. Ìwọ lè jí ní àárọ̀ kùtùkùtù ọ̀la kí ìwọ sì máa lọ ilé.”
10 But the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and went away, and came as far as opposite Jebus, which is Jerusalem; and he had with him two saddled asses, and his concubine also was with him.
Ṣùgbọ́n nítorí pé òun kò fẹ́ dúró mọ́ níbẹ̀ ní òru náà ọkùnrin náà kúrò ó sì gba ọ̀nà Jebusi: ọ̀nà Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀ méjèèjì tí ó fi dì í ní gàárì àti àlè rẹ̀.
11 When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said unto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn in unto this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.
Nígbà tí wọ́n súnmọ́ Jebusi tí ilẹ̀ ti fẹ́ ṣú tan, ìránṣẹ́ náà sọ fún ọ̀gá rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a dúró ní ìlú yìí tí í ṣe ti àwọn ará Jebusi kí a sì sùn níbẹ̀.”
12 And his master said unto him, We will not turn into one of the cities of the stranger, that are not belonging to the children of Israel; but we will pass on as far as Gib'ah.
Ọ̀gá rẹ̀ dá a lóhùn pé, “Rárá o, àwa kì yóò wọ ìlú àwọn àjèjì, àwọn tí olùgbé ibẹ̀ kì í ṣe ọmọ Israẹli, a yóò dé Gibeah.”
13 And he said unto his servant, Come, and let us draw near to one of these places; and let us lodge all night in Gib'ah, or in Ramah.
Ó fi kún un pé, ẹ wá ẹ jẹ́ kí a gbìyànjú kí a dé Gibeah tàbí Rama kí a sùn ní ọ̀kan nínú wọn.
14 And they passed on and went forward; and the sun went down unto them by Gib'ah, which belongeth to Benjamin.
Wọ́n sì tẹ̀síwájú nínú ìrìnàjò wọn, oòrùn wọ̀ bí wọ́n ti súnmọ́ Gibeah tí ṣe ti àwọn Benjamini.
15 And they turned aside thither, to go in to lodge in Gib'ah; and when he went in, he sat down in the street of the city; for there was no man that brought them into his house to lodge.
Wọ́n yípadà wọ́n lọ sí inú ìlú Gibeah láti wọ̀ síbẹ̀ ní òru náà, wọ́n lọ wọ́n sì jókòó níbi gbọ̀ngàn ìlú náà, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí ẹni tí ó gbà wọ́n sínú ilé rẹ̀ láti wọ̀ sí.
16 And, behold, an old man was coming from his work out of the field at evening, and this man was from the mountain of Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gib'ah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.
Ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà ọkùnrin arúgbó kan láti àwọn òkè Efraimu, ṣùgbọ́n tí ń gbé ní Gibeah (ibẹ̀ ni àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini ń gbé) ń ti ibi iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ bọ̀ láti inú oko.
17 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the street of the city: and then said the old man, Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou?
Nígbà tí ó wòkè ó rí arìnrìn-àjò náà ní gbọ̀ngàn ìlú náà, ọkùnrin arúgbó yìí bi í léèrè pé, “Níbo ni ò ń lọ? Níbo ni o ti ń bọ̀?”
18 And he said unto him, We are passing from Beth-lechem-judah toward the lower edge of the mountain of Ephraim; from there am I, and I went as far as Beth-lechem-judah; but I am going to the house of the Lord; and there is no man that bringeth me into his house.
Ọmọ Lefi náà dá a lóhùn pé, “Bẹtilẹhẹmu ti Juda ni àwa ti ń bọ̀, àwa sì ń lọ sí agbègbè tí ó sá pamọ́ ní àwọn òkè Efraimu níbi ti mo ń gbé. Mo ti lọ sí Bẹtilẹhẹmu ti Juda, èmi sì ń lọ sí ilé Olúwa nísinsin yìí. Kò sí ẹni tí ó gbà mí sí ilé rẹ̀.
19 Yet there is both straw and provender for our asses; and there are also bread and wine for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man who is with thy servants; there is no want of any thing.
Àwa ní koríko àti oúnjẹ tó tó fún àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wa àti oúnjẹ àti wáìnì fún àwa ìránṣẹ́ rẹ—èmi, ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ àti ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú wa. A ò ṣe aláìní ohun kankan.”
20 And the old man said, Peace be with thee; only let all thy wants lie upon me; at least lodge not in the street.
Ọkùnrin arúgbó náà sì wí pé. “Àlàáfíà fún ọ, bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, èmi yóò pèsè gbogbo ohun tí o nílò, kìkì pé kí ìwọ má ṣe sun ní ìgboro.”
21 So he brought him to his house, and gave provender unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and they ate and drank.
Òun sì mú wa sí ilé rẹ̀, ó ń bọ́ àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti wẹ ẹsẹ̀ wọn, àwọn àlejò náà jẹ, wọ́n mu.
22 As they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, worthless people, beset the house round about, knocking at the door; and they said to the master of the house, the old man, thus, Bring forth the man that in come to thy house, that we may know him.
Ǹjẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ń ṣe àríyá, kíyèsi i, àwọn ọkùnrin ìlú náà, àwọn ọmọ Beliali kan, yí ilé náà ká, wọ́n sì ń lu ìlẹ̀kùn; wọ́n sì sọ fún baálé ilé náà ọkùnrin arúgbó náà pé, “Mú ọkùnrin tí ó wọ̀ sínú ilé rẹ wá, kí àwa lè mọ̀ ọ́n.”
23 And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them, No, my brethren, I pray you, act not wickedly; since this man is once come into my house, do not this scandalous thing.
Ọkùnrin, baálé ilé náà sì jáde tọ̀ wọ́n lọ, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́ ẹ̀yin arákùnrin mi, èmi bẹ̀ yín, ẹ má ṣe hùwà búburú; nítorí tí ọkùnrin yìí ti wọ ilé mi, ẹ má ṣe hùwà òmùgọ̀ yìí.
24 Behold, here is my daughter a virgin, and his concubine; let me bring them out now, and humble ye them, and do to them what seemeth good in your eyes; but unto this man do not this scandalous thing.
Kíyèsi i, ọmọbìnrin mi ni èyí, wúńdíá, àti àlè rẹ̀; àwọn ni èmi ó mú jáde wá nísinsin yìí, kí ẹ̀yin tẹ̀ wọ́n lógo, kí ẹ̀yin ṣe sí wọn bí ó ti tọ́ lójú yín: ṣùgbọ́n ọkùnrin yìí ni kí ẹ̀yin má ṣe hùwà òmùgọ̀ yìí sí.”
25 But the men would not hearken to him; so the man took hold of his concubine, and brought her forth unto them into the street; and they knew her, and ill-used her all the night until the morning; and they let her go when the day began to dawn.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin náà kò fetí sí tirẹ̀. Nítorí náà ọkùnrin náà mú àlè rẹ̀ ó sì tari rẹ̀ jáde sí wọn, wọ́n sì bá a fi ipá lòpọ̀, wọ́n sì fi gbogbo òru náà bá a lòpọ̀, nígbà tí ó di àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́ wọ́n jọ̀wọ́ rẹ̀ lọ́.
26 Then came the woman [home] in the early part of the morning, and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, [and lay] till it was light.

27 And when her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go on his way: behold, the woman, his concubine, was lying at the door of the house, with her hands upon the threshold.
Nígbà tí ọ̀gá rẹ̀ jí tí ó sì dìde ní òwúrọ̀ tí ó sì ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn ilé náà, tí ó sì bọ́ sí òde láti tẹ̀síwájú nínú ìrìnàjò rẹ̀, kíyèsi i àlè rẹ̀ wà ní ṣíṣubú ní iwájú ilé, tí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì di òpó ẹnu-ọ̀nà ibẹ̀ mú,
28 And he said unto her, Rise up, and let us be going; but no one answered. Then he took her upon the ass, and the man rose up, and went unto his place.

29 And when he was come into his house, he took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, according to her bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her about in all the territory of Israel.

30 And it happened, that whoever saw it said, There hath no such deed been done or seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt until this day: reflect well on it, give advice, and speak.
