Judges 19
1 And it came to pass in those days, when, king, there was none 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 Bethlehem-judah.
In len ingo, ke soenna oasr tokosra lun mwet Israel, oasr sie mwet Levi su muta infulan eol in acn Ephraim. El eis sie mutan fusr Bethlehem in acn Judah tuh elan mutan kulansap se kial.
2 And his concubine went astray against him, and departed from him, unto the house of her father, in Bethlehem-judah, —and remained there, the space of four months.
Tusruktu tok mutan sac el kosro nu saya, pwanang el folokla nu in lohm sin papa tumal ah in acn Bethlehem, ac muta we malem akosr.
3 Then arose her husband, and went after her, to speak unto her heart, that he might bring her back again, having his young man with him, and a couple of asses, —and she brought him into the house of her father, and, when the father of the damsel saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.
Na mukul sac nunkauk in ukwalla ac srike in folokunulla nu yorol. Ke ma inge el us mukul kulansap se lal ac donkey lukwa welul. Ke mutan fusr sac liyalak el pwanulak nu in lohm sin papa tumal, na ke papa sac liyal el arulana engan in paingul.
4 And his father-in-law, the father of the damsel, constrained him, and he abode with him three days, —and they did eat and drink, and lodged there.
Papa sac el kwafe tuh mukul Levi sac in mutana, na el muta len tolu we, mongo, nim ac motul.
5 And it came to pass, on the fourth day, when they arose early in the morning, and gat up to go, that the father of the damsel said unto his son-in-law, —Stay thy heart with a morsel of bread, and, afterwards, ye shall go your way.
Ke lututang se akakosr, eltal toang na ngutalik ac akola in som. Na papa tumun mutan sac fahk nu sin mwet Levi sac, “Mongoi meet, kom fah som.”
6 So they both of them sat down and did eat together, and drink. Then said the father of the damsel unto the man, Be content, I pray thee, and tarry the night, and let thy heart be glad.
Na mukul luo ah tukeni muta mongo ac nim. Ac papa tumun mutan sac fahk, “Sifilpa motulla lohm uh ofong tuh kom in mongla wo.”
7 And, when the man rose up to go, his father-in-law pressed him, so he turned back and tarried the night there.
Mwet Levi sac el tuyak in som, tuh papa sac el sifil kwafe elan muta, na el tari na motulla we ke fong sac.
8 And, when he arose early on the morning of the fifth day, to go, the father of the damsel said—Come now, stay thy heart, and tarry ye until the decline of the day. And they did eat, both of them.
Toang na ke len se aklimekosr, el sifilpa mukui, na papa tumun mutan sac fahk, “Mongoiwin. Soano nu ke tafun len tok.” Ouinge mukul luo ah sifil tukeni mongoi.
9 And, when the man rose up to go—he and his concubine and his young man, —his father-in-law, the father of the damsel, said to him, Come now, see! the day hath sunk down towards evening, come now! tarry the night; lo! the day goeth down, tarry the night here, and let thy heart be glad, so shall ye rise early to-morrow for your journey, and thou shalt go thy way to thine own home.
Ke mukul sac ac mutan kulansap se kial, ac mwet kulansap se pac lal, eltal sifil mukuiyak in som, na papa sac el fahk, “Liye, akuranna ekela. Wona kom in tari motulla pac ofong. Ac lohsrani pa inge. Mutawin pwar inge. Lutu kom fah toang na tukakek ac som nu yen sum an.”
10 But the man would not tarry the night, but rose up and went his way, and came as far as over against Jebus, the same, is Jerusalem, —and, with him, were a couple of asses, saddled, his concubine also, was with him.
Tuh mukul sac tia lungse sifilpa motulla, na el ac mutan kulansap kial, wi mukul kulansap sac ac donkey lukwa ma oasr mwe muta fac, elos tuyak som.
11 They being by Jebus, and, the day, having gone far down, the young man said unto his lord—Do come, I pray thee, and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites, and tarry the night therein.
Tafun len tok elos sun acn Jebus (Jerusalem). Na mukul kulansap sac fahk nu sin mwet Levi sac, “Efu kut tia kuhfwak motulla in siti se inge?”
12 And his lord said unto him, We will not turn aside into a city of aliens, who are, not of the sons of Israel, —but will pass on as far as Gibeah.
Tusruktu mwet kacto lal ah fahk, “Kut ac tia muta ke kutena siti ma mwet we tia mwet Israel, a kut ac fahsrna in sun acn Gibeah.”
13 And he said to his young man, Come and let us draw near unto one of the places, —and tarry the night in Gibeah, or in Ramah.
Na el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, “Fahsru, kut ac srike in sun sie sin siti inge, Gibeah ku Ramah, ac motulla we.”
14 So they passed on, and went their way, —and the sun went in upon them beside Gibeah, which belongeth to Benjamin.
Ouinge elos fahsr alukela acn Jebus. Elos sun acn Gibeah in acn lun sruf lal Benjamin ke ekela ah.
15 Then turned they aside there, to go in and tarry the night in Gibeah, —so he went in and abode in the broadway of the city; and there was no one minded to take them into a house, to tarry the night.
Elos kuhfla liki inkanek ah elos in som ac muta we ke fong sac. Elos utyak nu in siti sac ac muta ke acn in toeni lun mwet uh, tusruktu wanginna mwet solalos nu in lohm selos ah.
16 But lo! an old man, coming in from his work, out of the field, in the evening, and, the man, was from the hill country of Ephraim, he himself, being a sojourner in Gibeah, —but, the men of the place, were Benjamites.
Ke elos srakna muta insac, oasr sie mwet matu foloko liki orekma lal in ima lal. Mwet se inge el mwet fineol in acn Ephraim, tusruk el tuku ac oakwuki in acn Gibeah. Inkaiyen mwet in acn se inge ma in sruf lal Benjamin.
17 So he lifted up his eyes, and saw a wayfaring man in the broadway of the city, —and the old man said—Whither goest thou? and from whence hast thou come?
Ke mwet matu sac akilen lah elos mwet fahsr nu in acn sac, el siyuk selos, “Kowos tuku ya me, ac kowos ac som nu ya?”
18 And he said unto him—We, are passing along, from Bethlehem-judah, unto the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim, whence I am, but I have been as far as Bethlehem-judah, and now, unto the house of Yahweh, am I going, and there is no one minded to take me into a house.
Na mwet Levi sac fahk, “Kut muta Bethlehem in acn Judah, ac inge kut fahsr in folokla nu acn sesr, su oan fineol in acn Ephraim. Tuh pa wangin mwet lohma nu sesr.
19 Nevertheless, straw and fodder too, is there for our asses, yea moreover, bread and wine, there are for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man that is with thy servants, —there is lack, of nothing.
Kut utuk mwe mongo ac mah pao nun kosro natusr, oayapa bread ac wain fal nu sik mutan kulansap kiuk ac mukul kulansap luk. Oasr yorosr ma nukewa kut enenu.”
20 And the old man said—Thou art welcome! only, all thy wants, be on me, —by no means, in the broadway, mayest thou lodge.
Na mwet matu sac fahk, “Kowos ku in mongla in lohm sik ah! Nga ku in karingin kowos; ac kowos tia enenu in motul likinum uh ke nien toeni lun siti uh.”
21 So he brought him into his house, and gave provender to the asses, —and they bathed their feet, and did eat and drink.
Ouinge el pwanulosla nu lohm sel, ac el kiteya kosro natulos. Elos ohlla nialos ac mongo yorol.
22 They, were gladdening their heart, when lo! men of the city, men of the sons of the Abandoned One, beset the house round about, beating violently against the door, —and they spake unto the old man the owner of the house, saying, Bring forth the man that hath entered into thy house, that we may know him.
Ke elos srakna muta aengani yorol, na un mukul koluk se in siti sac elos tuku raunela lohm sac, ac puok srungul in lohm ah. Elos fahk nu sin mukul matu se ma se lohm sac, “Sap mukul se ma wi kom utyak nu lohm an in ilme! Kut lungse orek ma koluk nu sel!”
23 And the man, the owner of the house, went forth unto them, and said unto them, Do not, my brethren, do not act vilely, I pray you, —after this man hath entered into my house, do not commit this impiety.
Tusruktu mwet matu sac el illa nu yorolos ac fahk nu selos, “Mwet lili luk, mo! Nunak munas, nimet kowos nunku in oru kain ouiya koluk ingan! Mwet se inge el mutwata yuruk — nga pa solal nu in lohm sik uh.
24 Lo, my virgin daughter, and his concubine, I must needs now bring, them, forth, and ye must humble, them, and do, unto them, what seemeth good in your own eyes, —but, unto this man, must ye not do this impious thing!
Liye, tulik mutan virgin se nutik pa inge, oayapa mutan kulansap se kien mukul sac pa inge. Nga ac usaltalu, ac komtal ku in oru ma na komtal lungse oru nu seltal, tusruk nimet oru kain ouiya koluk ingan nu sin mukul se inge!”
25 But the men would not hearken unto him, so the man laid hold on his concubine, and brought her forth unto them, outside, —and they knew, her, and abused her all the night, until the morning, and let her go at the uprisings of the dawn.
El ne fahk ouinge, tuh mukul ekasr ah tia lungse lohngol. Ouinge mwet Levi sac sruokya mutan kulansap se kial ah, ac sinukunulla nu likinuma nu yoroltal. Elos sruinkuilya ac akkolukyal fong nufon sac nwe ke lenelik.
26 So the woman came in at the turnings of the morning, —and fell down at the entrance of the man’s house where her lord was, and [lay there] till it was light.
Toang na ke lutu sac, mutan sac tuku nu lohm sin mwet matu sac, yen mukul tumal ah muta we ah, na el topla ke mutunoa. El oan insac nwe ke lenelik.
27 So then her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went forth, to go on his journey, —when lo! the woman, his concubine, fallen at the entrance of the house, with her hands upon the threshold.
Ke mukul tumal ah tukakek ke lutu sac, el ikasla srungul ah elan som inkanek lal ah, na el liyauk tuh na mutan kulansap kial ah topla oan insac ac paol saplakang nu ke srungul in lohm sac.
28 And he said unto her—Up! and let us be going. But there was no answer. So he took her up on the ass, and the man rose up, and went his way to his own place.
Na mukul sac fahk, “Tukakek, kut som.” Tuh el tiana topkol. Na mukul sac sraklalak ac fililya fin donkey natul ah, ac folokla nu in acn sel ah.
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 bounds of Israel.
Ke el sun acn we el utyak nu in lohm ah, ac eis mitmit se. Na el us monin mutan kulansap se kial, ac sipikya nu ke ip singoul luo, ac supwalik kais sie ip nu sin kais sie sruf lun mwet Israel.
30 And so it was, that every one who beheld said—There hath not happened, nor been seen the like of this, from the day when the sons of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt, until this day: Put it to yourselves contemning it, take counsel and speak!
Mwet nukewa su liye ma sac elos fahk, “Kut soenna lohng ke kain ouiya se inge oemeet me! Wangin kain lumah inge nu orek oe ke mwet Israel elos illa liki acn Egypt! Enenu na in oasr ma kut oru kac, tuh mea kut ac oru uh?”
