Tedae rhaeh hamla hlang loh a huem pawt dongah thoo tih nong. Te vaengah amah taengah a khih laak rhoi neh a taengkah a yula te Jerusalem kah Jebus dan la a pawk puei.
11 They [were] near Jebus and the day it had gone down exceedingly and he said the servant to master his come! please so let us turn aside to [the] city of the Jebusite[s] this so we may spend [the] night in it.

12 And he said to him master his not we will turn aside to a city foreign who not [are] of [the] people of Israel they and we will pass on to Gibeah.
Tedae anih te a boei loh, “Kholong kho la ael boel sih, amih te Israel ca moenih, te dongah Gibeah la cet uh mai sih,” a ti nah.
13 And he said to servant his (come! *Q(K)*) so let us drew near at one of the places and we will spend [the] night in Gibeah or in Ramah.
Te phoeiah cadong te, “Cet sih lamtah a hmuen pakhat te moeh sih, Gibeah ah khaw Ramah ah khaw rhaeh uh mai sih,” a ti nah.
14 And they passed on and they went and it went for them the sun beside Gibeah which [belongs] to Benjamin.

15 And they turned aside there to go to spend [the] night in Gibeah and he went and he sat in [the] open square of the city and not anyone [was] receiving them the house towards to spend [the] night.
Te dongah pahoi kun ham neh Gibeah ah rhaeh ham khaw paa uh. Te phoeiah cet uh tih khopuei toltung ah ngol uh. Tedae im khuila pah sak ham amih te hlang loh voek pawh.
16 And there! - a man old [was] coming from work his from the field in the evening and the man [was] from [the] hill country of Ephraim and he [was] sojourning in Gibeah and [the] men of the place [were] Ben-jaminites.
Hlaem vaengah patong pakhat tah lohma lamkah a bibi lamkah lawt halo. Tedae anih khaw Benjamin ca rhoek kah hmuen Gibeah ah aka bakuep Ephraim tlang lamkah hlang van ni.
17 And he lifted up eyes his and he saw the man who was traveling in [the] open square of the city and he said the man old where? are you going and from where? are you coming.
Patong loh a mik a huel a sawt hatah khopuei toltung ah yincet hlang pakhat te a hmuh. Te dongah tekah hlang te patong loh, “Me lamkah lae na lo tih melam na caeh eh?,” a ti nah.
18 And he said to him [are] passing we from Beth-lehem Judah to [the] remotest parts of [the] hill country of Ephraim [am] from there I and I went to Beth-lehem Judah and [the] house of Yahweh I [am] going and not anyone [was] receiving me the house towards.
Te dongah, “Kaimih tah Judah Bethlehem lamkah Ephraim tlang hlaep la ka cet uh. Te lamkah te Judah Bethlehem la ka cet uh tih BOEIPA im ka paan. Tedae im khuila kai aka pah sak ham hlang om pawh.
19 And [are] both straw as well as fodder there for donkeys our and [are] also food and wine there for me and for maidservant your and for the servant with servants your there not [is] lack of any thing.
Tahae ah ka laak ham cangkong neh a kamvuelh khaw om pueng. Kamah ham neh na salnu ham khaw, na sal taengkah cadong ham khaw buh neh misurtui om pueng tih hnopai dongah pakhat khaw a tloelnah om pawh,” a ti nah.
20 And he said the man old peace [be] to you certainly all lack your [is] on me only in the open square may not you spend [the] night.
Te dongah tekah hlang te patong loh, “Nang taengah ngaimongnah om saeh. Na tloelnah boeih nen khaw kai taengah om mai toltung ah rhaehba boeh,” a ti nah.
21 And he brought him to house his (and he fed *Q(k)*) the donkeys and they washed feet their and they ate and they drank.
Yin te a im khuila a khuen tih laak a vuelh pah, a kho a silh pah phoeiah a caak a ok uh.
22 They [were] making good heart their and there! [the] men of the city men of sons of worthlessness they surrounded the house beating violently on the door and they said to the man [the] master of the house old saying bring out the man who he came to house your so we may know him.
A lungbuei a voelphoeng uh li vaengah khopuei hlang khui hlang muen ca rhoek loh im te tarha a vael uh tih thohkhaih te a tum uh. Im kung patong te khaw a doek uh uh tih, “Na im la aka pawk hlang te hang khuen lamtah anih ka hmat uh lah eh,” a ti nah.
23 And he went out to them the man [the] master of the house and he said to them may [you] not O brothers my may not you do evil please after that he has come the man this may [you] not house my may not you do the disgraceful folly this.
Tedae im kung te amih taengla ha moe tih, “Ka manuca rhoek nang te tlam moenih, hekah hlang he ka im khuila ha kun coeng dongah thaehuet uh boel mai, boethae halang he tah saii uh boeh.
24 Here! daughter my the virgin and concubine his let me bring out please them and afflict them and do to them the good in view your and to the man this not you must do [the] thing of disgraceful folly this.
Ka canu, oila neh ka yula kang khuen mai eh. Amih phaep uh lamtah na mik dongah then na ti uh bangla amih rhoi taengah saii uh. Tedae hekah hlang taengah boethae halang hno te saii uh boeh,” a ti nah.
25 And not they were willing the men to listen to him and he took hold the man on concubine his and he brought [her] out to them outside and they knew her and they abused her all the night until the morning and they let go her (just as came up *Q(K)*) the dawn.
Tedae hlang loh hnatun ham a huem uh pawt dongah khosoih loh a yula te a mawt tih amih taengah poeng la a thak pah. Te vaengah anih te a tholh puei uh tih khoyin khing te mincang duela a poelyoe uh. Khothaih a pha daengah huta te a hlah uh.
26 And she came the woman to [the] turning of the morning and she fell [the] entrance of [the] house of the man where master her [was] there until the light.
Mincang a pha vaengah tah huta te cet tih a boei a om nah im kah thohka ah khosae duela hmawk sop uh.
27 And he arose master her in the morning and he opened [the] doors of the house and he went out to go to way his and there! the woman concubine his [was] falling [the] entrance of the house and hands her [were] on the threshold.
A boei te mincang ah thoo tih im thohkhaih te a ong. Amah kho long ah voei ham ha moe phai hatah a yula te im thohka kah cingkhaa dongah kut a tloeng tih lawt ana bakop pah.
28 And he said to her get up so let us go and there not [was one who] answered and he took her on the donkey and he arose the man and he went to place his.
Te dongah anih te, “Thoo lamtah cet pawn sih,” a ti nah. Tedae a doo voel pawt dongah laak dongla a khueh. Te phoeiah tekah hlang te thoo tih a hmuen a paan.
29 And he came to house his and he took the knife and he took hold on concubine his and he cut in pieces her to bones her into two [plus] ten pieces and he sent out her in all [the] territory of Israel.
Amah im la a pawk vaengah tah tumcaca a loh tih a yula te a tloeng. Te phoeiah a rhuh te maehpoel hlai nit la a tloek tih Israel khorhi takuem ah a pat.
30 And it was every [one who] saw and he said not it has occurred and not it has been seen like this from [the] day came up [the] people of Israel from [the] land of Egypt until the day this set for yourselves on it take counsel and speak.
Te tla aka om te boeih a hmuh uh vaengah, “Egypt kho lamkah n'thoo uh hnin lamkah loh tihnin duela te bang te Israel ca rhoek taengah om pawt tih hmuh noek bal moenih. He he nangmih loh dueh uh, anih he dawtlet uh lamtah thui uh,” a ti nah.
