Entonces su marido fue tras ella para hablarle con amabilidad y traerla de vuelta a casa. Con él iba su criado y dos burros. Lo llevó a la casa de su padre y, cuando éste lo conoció, lo acogió con gusto.
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.
Su padre le presionó para que se quedara con ellos, así que se quedó tres días, comiendo, bebiendo y durmiendo allí.

Al cuarto día, él y su concubina se levantaron temprano por la mañana y se prepararon para irse, pero el padre de ella le dijo a su yerno: “Te sentirás mejor si comes algo antes de irte”.
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.
Así que los dos hombres se sentaron a comer y beber juntos. El padre le dijo a su yerno: “¡Accede a pasar otra noche aquí, y podrás disfrutar!”
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.
El hombre se levantó para irse, pero su suegro le presionó para que se quedara, así que al final pasó la noche allí.

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.
Pero el hombre no quería pasar otra noche, así que se levantó y se fue. Se dirigió hacia la ciudad de Jebús (ahora llamada Jerusalén) con sus dos asnos ensillados y su concubina.
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.
Cuando se acercaban a Jebús, el siervo le dijo a su amo: “Señor, ¿por qué no nos detenemos aquí, en esta ciudad jebusea, para pasar la noche?”
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.
Pero su amo le contestó: “No, no vamos a detenernos en esta ciudad donde sólo viven extranjeros y ningún israelita. Seguiremos hasta Gabaa”.
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.
Entonces le dijo a su siervo: “Vamos, tratemos de llegar a Gabaa o a Ramá y pasemos la noche en algún lugar”.
14 And they passed on and they went and it went for them the sun beside Gibeah which [belongs] to Benjamin.
Así que siguieron adelante y llegaron a Guibeá, en el territorio de Benjamín, justo cuando se ponía el sol.
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.
Se detuvieron en Gabaa para pasar la noche, y se sentaron en la plaza principal del pueblo, pero nadie los invitó a quedarse.
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.
Pero más tarde, esa misma noche, llegó un anciano que volvía de trabajar en el campo. Era de la región montañosa de Efraín, pero ahora vivía en Gabaa, en el territorio de Benjamín.
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.
Se asomó y se fijó en el viajero de la plaza y le preguntó: “¿Adónde van y de dónde vienen?”
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.
“Venimos de Belén, en Judá, y nos dirigimos a una zona remota en la región montañosa de Efraín”, respondió el hombre. “Soy de allí y fui a Belén, y ahora voy al Templo del Señor. Aquí nadie me ha invitado a quedarme.
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.
Hay paja y comida para nuestros burros, y nosotros, tus siervos, tenemos pan y vino, suficiente para mí, la mujer y mi siervo. Tenemos todo lo que necesitamos”.
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.
“Son bienvenidos a quedarse conmigo”, respondió el hombre. “Puedo dejarles todo lo que necesiten. Pero no pases la noche aquí en la plaza”.
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.
Lo llevó a su casa y dio de comer a los burros. Los viajeros se lavaron los pies y luego se pusieron a comer y beber.
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.
Mientras se divertían, llegaron unos depravados del pueblo, rodearon la casa y golpearon la puerta, gritando al anciano dueño de la casa: “Saca al hombre que vino a quedarse en tu casa para que tengamos sexo con él”.
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.
El dueño de la casa salió y les dijo: “¡Hermanos míos, no actúen con tanta maldad! Este hombre es un invitado en mi casa. ¡No cometan semejante acto tan repugnante!
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.
Miren, aquí están mi hija virgen y la concubina de ese hombre. Dejen que las saque y podrán violarlas y hacer con ellas lo que quieran. Pero no hagan algo tan repugnante con este hombre”.
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.
Pero los hombres se negaron a escuchar, así que el hombre agarró a su concubina y se la echó fuera. La violaron y abusaron de ella toda la noche hasta la mañana, y sólo la abandonaron al amanecer.
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.
Cuando la noche se convirtió en día, ella regresó a la casa donde estaba su amo y se desplomó frente a la puerta en la mañana.
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.
Su amo se levantó por la mañana y abrió la puerta de la casa. Salió para continuar su viaje y allí estaba su concubina, tendida en la puerta de la casa, con las manos agarradas al umbral.
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.
“Levántate, vamos”, le dijo, pero no hubo respuesta. Entonces el hombre la subió a su asno y se fue a su casa.
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.
Cuando llegó a su casa, tomó un cuchillo y, aferrándose a su concubina, la cortó, miembro por miembro, en doce pedazos, y envió estos pedazos a todas las partes de Israel.
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.
Todos los que la vieron dijeron: “Nunca se había visto nada igual, desde que los israelitas salieron de Egipto hasta ahora. ¡Deberían consideraresto que le pasó a ella! ¡Decidan qué vanhacer! ¡Hablen ahora!”
