< Judges 19 >

1 And it was in the days those and [was] a king there not in Israel and he was - a man a Levite sojourning in [the] remotest parts of [the] hill country of Ephraim and he took for himself a woman a concubine from Beth-lehem Judah.
Pada waktu Israel belum mempunyai raja, ada seorang Lewi tinggal di pedalaman, di daerah pegunungan Efraim. Ia mengambil seorang wanita dari Betlehem Yehuda menjadi selirnya.
2 And she was angry towards him concubine his and she went from with him to [the] house of father her to Beth-lehem Judah and she was there days four months.
Tetapi kemudian wanita itu marah kepadanya, sehingga ia kembali ke rumah ayahnya di Betlehem. Setelah wanita itu tinggal di sana empat bulan lamanya,
3 And he arose husband her and he went after her to speak to heart her (to bring back her *Q(K)*) and servant his [was] with him and a pair of donkeys and she brought him [the] house of father her and he saw him [the] father of the young woman and he was glad to meet him.
orang Lewi itu pergi menyusul dia untuk membujuknya kembali kepadanya. Ia pergi dengan membawa seorang hamba dan dua ekor keledai. Setelah tiba di sana, wanita itu membawa dia kepada ayahnya. Ketika ayah wanita itu melihat dia, ia menyambutnya dengan gembira,
4 And he took hold on him father-in-law his [the] father of the young woman and he remained with him three days and they ate and they drank and they spent [the] night there.
dan mendesak supaya ia jangan pulang. Karena itu, ia tinggal selama tiga hari dan makan minum serta bermalam di situ bersama selirnya itu.
5 And it was on the day fourth and they rose early in the morning and he arose to go and he said [the] father of the young woman to son-in-law his sustain heart your a morsel of bread and after you will go.
Pada hari keempat, mereka bangun pagi-pagi sekali lalu bersiap-siap untuk berangkat. Tetapi ayah wanita itu berkata kepada orang Lewi itu, "Makan dulu supaya kuat. Kalian bisa berangkat kemudian."
6 And they sat down and they ate [the] two of them together and they drank and he said [the] father of the young woman to the man be willing please and spend [the] night so it may be good heart your.
Maka duduklah orang Lewi itu lalu makan dan minum bersama-sama dengan ayah wanita itu. Tetapi ketika ia berdiri hendak berangkat, ayah wanita itu membujuknya supaya jangan pergi. "Bersenang-senanglah dulu," katanya, "dan bermalamlah di sini." Maka tinggallah orang Lewi itu di situ semalam lagi.
7 And he arose the man to go and he urged him father-in-law his and he turned back and he spent [the] night there.
8 And he rose early in the morning on the day fifth to go and he said - [the] father of the young woman sustain please heart your and delay until declines the day and they ate [the] two of them.
Pada hari kelima, pagi-pagi sekali, ketika ia hendak berangkat, ayah wanita itu berkata lagi, "Ayo, makanlah dulu; sebentar baru berangkat." Maka mereka berdua makan bersama dan berlambat-lambat sampai matahari mulai terbenam.
9 And he arose the man to go he and concubine his and servant his and he said to him father-in-law his [the] father of the young woman here! please it is sinking the day to become evening spend [the] night please here! to decline the day spend [the] night here so it may be good heart your and you will rise early tomorrow for journey your and you will go to tent your.
Kemudian, ketika orang Lewi itu bersama selirnya dan hambanya hendak berangkat, ayah itu berkata, "Hari sudah hampir malam, sebentar lagi gelap. Lebih baik menginap saja di sini dan bersenang-senang. Besok kalian boleh bangun pagi-pagi untuk berangkat dan pulang."
10 And not he was willing the man to spend [the] night and he arose and he went and he came to opposite Jebus that [is] Jerusalem and [were] with him a pair of donkeys saddled and concubine his [was] with him.
Tetapi orang Lewi itu tidak mau bermalam lagi di situ. Ia dan selirnya berangkat, bersama-sama dengan hambanya dan kedua keledainya yang berpelana. Ketika hari hampir malam, mereka sampai di dekat Yebus (yaitu Yerusalem). Lalu hamba itu berkata kepada tuannya, "Tuan, marilah kita singgah dan bermalam di kota orang Yebus ini saja."
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.
Tetapi tuannya menjawab, "Tidak! Kita tidak akan berhenti di tempat yang penduduknya bukan orang Israel. Mari kita meneruskan perjalanan sedikit lagi dan nanti bermalam di Gibea atau Rama."
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.
14 And they passed on and they went and it went for them the sun beside Gibeah which [belongs] to Benjamin.
Karena itu mereka berjalan terus dan tidak berhenti di Yebus. Matahari telah terbenam ketika mereka sampai di Gibea di wilayah suku Benyamin.
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.
Mereka singgah di sana untuk bermalam, lalu masuk ke kota dan pergi duduk di alun-alun. Tetapi tak ada seorang pun yang mengundang mereka ke rumahnya untuk bermalam.
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.
Sementara mereka duduk di alun-alun kota, datanglah seorang tua yang baru kembali dari pekerjaannya di ladang. Ia sebenarnya berasal dari daerah pegunungan Efraim tetapi sekarang tinggal di Gibea. (Penduduk lainnya di Gibea adalah orang Benyamin.)
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.
Ketika orang tua itu melihat orang Lewi itu di alun-alun, ia bertanya, "Saudara dari mana, dan mau ke mana?"
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.
Orang Lewi itu menjawab, "Kami baru datang dari Betlehem di Yehuda, dan sedang dalam perjalanan pulang ke rumah di pedalaman di pegunungan Efraim. Saya berasal dari sana. Tidak ada seorang pun dari penduduk kota ini mau menerima kami di rumahnya untuk bermalam.
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.
Kami tidak memerlukan apa-apa yang lain, bekal kami cukup. Ada jerami dan makanan untuk keledai kami; ada roti dan anggur untuk saya bersama istri saya ini dan hamba saya."
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.
Lalu kata orang tua itu, "Jangan khawatir, nanti saya tolong. Tidak usah bermalam di alun-alun ini."
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.
Kemudian ia membawa mereka ke rumahnya lalu memberi makanan kepada keledai-keledai mereka. Dan setelah tamu-tamunya itu mencuci kaki, mereka makan.
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.
Sementara mereka bersenang-senang, tiba-tiba rumah itu dikepung orang-orang bejat dari kota itu. Mereka menggedor-gedor pintu dan berkata kepada orang tua itu, "Serahkan kepada kami orang laki-laki yang kaubawa ke rumahmu. Kami mau pakai dia!"
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.
Orang tua itu keluar dan berkata kepada mereka, "Jangan, saudara-saudara! Saya mohon, janganlah melakukan hal yang jahat dan tak patut seperti itu, sebab dia tamu saya.
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.
Nanti saya berikan saja selirnya dan anak gadis saya kepada kalian. Bolehlah kalian memuaskan diri dengan mereka. Tapi, janganlah melakukan apa-apa yang jahat terhadap tamu saya itu!"
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.
Tetapi karena orang-orang bejat itu tetap berkeras, maka orang Lewi itu mendorong selirnya itu keluar untuk mereka. Lalu mereka memperkosa wanita itu tanpa henti-hentinya sampai pagi.
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.
Pada waktu subuh wanita itu kembali, tetapi di depan pintu rumah orang tua itu, tempat suaminya menginap, ia pingsan. Setelah matahari terbit ia masih berada di situ.
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.
Pagi itu, ketika suaminya bangun dan membuka pintu untuk berangkat, ia mendapati selirnya tergeletak di depan rumah itu dengan tangannya berpegang pada pintu.
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.
"Bangunlah," katanya kepadanya, "mari kita berangkat." Tetapi wanita itu tidak menjawab karena sudah mati. Lalu, ia mengangkat wanita itu dan menaruhnya di atas keledai, kemudian berangkat untuk pulang ke rumahnya.
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.
Sampai di rumah, ia masuk dan mengambil pisau kemudian memotong-motong mayat selirnya itu menjadi dua belas potong. Setelah itu, ia mengirim potongan-potongan itu kepada kedua belas suku bangsa Israel, masing-masing satu potong.
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.
Semua orang yang melihat itu berkata, "Belum pernah hal semacam ini terjadi, sejak umat Israel keluar dari Mesir sampai hari ini. Kita tidak boleh tinggal diam. Kita harus berunding untuk bertindak!"
