Judges 19
1 In those days, when there was no king in Israel, there was a certain Levite living on the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim, who took for himself a concubine out of Bethlehem Judah.
当以色列中没有王的时候，有住以法莲山地那边的一个利未人，娶了一个犹大伯利恒的女子为妾。
2 His concubine played the prostitute against him, and went away from him to her father’s house to Bethlehem Judah, and was there for four months.
妾行淫离开丈夫，回犹大的伯利恒，到了父家，在那里住了四个月。
3 Her husband arose and went after her to speak kindly to her, to bring her again, having his servant with him and a couple of donkeys. She brought him into her father’s house; and when the father of the young lady saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.
她丈夫起来，带着一个仆人、两匹驴去见她，用好话劝她回来。女子就引丈夫进入父家。她父见了那人，便欢欢喜喜地迎接。
4 His father-in-law, the young lady’s father, kept him there; and he stayed with him three days. So they ate and drank, and stayed there.
那人的岳父，就是女子的父亲，将那人留下住了三天。于是二人一同吃喝、住宿。
5 On the fourth day, they got up early in the morning, and he rose up to depart. The young lady’s father said to his son-in-law, “Strengthen your heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward you shall go your way.”
到第四天，利未人清早起来要走，女子的父亲对女婿说：“请你吃点饭，加添心力，然后可以行路。”
6 So they sat down, ate, and drank, both of them together. Then the young lady’s father said to the man, “Please be pleased to stay all night, and let your heart be merry.”
于是二人坐下一同吃喝。女子的父亲对那人说：“请你再住一夜，畅快你的心。”
7 The man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he stayed there again.
那人起来要走，他岳父强留他，他又住了一宿。
8 He arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; and the young lady’s father said, “Please strengthen your heart and stay until the day declines;” and they both ate.
到第五天，他清早起来要走，女子的父亲说：“请你吃点饭，加添心力，等到日头偏西再走。”于是二人一同吃饭。
9 When the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father-in-law, the young lady’s father, said to him, “Behold, now the day draws towards evening, please stay all night. Behold, the day is ending. Stay here, that your heart may be merry; and tomorrow go on your way early, that you may go home.”
那人同他的妾和仆人起来要走，他岳父，就是女子的父亲，对他说：“看哪，日头偏西了，请你再住一夜；天快晚了，可以在这里住宿，畅快你的心。明天早早起行回家去。”
10 But the man wouldn’t stay that night, but he rose up and went near Jebus (also called Jerusalem). With him were a couple of saddled donkeys. His concubine also was with him.
那人不愿再住一夜，就备上那两匹驴，带着妾起身走了，来到耶布斯的对面（耶布斯就是耶路撒冷。）
11 When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, “Please come and let’s enter into this city of the Jebusites, and stay in it.”
临近耶布斯的时候，日头快要落了，仆人对主人说：“我们不如进这耶布斯人的城里住宿。”
12 His master said to him, “We won’t enter into the city of a foreigner that is not of the children of Israel; but we will pass over to Gibeah.”
主人回答说：“我们不可进不是以色列人住的外邦城，不如过到基比亚去”；
13 He said to his servant, “Come and let’s draw near to one of these places; and we will lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah.”
又对仆人说：“我们可以到一个地方，或住在基比亚，或住在拉玛。”
14 So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
他们就往前走。将到便雅悯的基比亚，日头已经落了；
15 They went over there, to go in to stay in Gibeah. He went in, and sat down in the street of the city; for there was no one who took them into his house to stay.
他们进入基比亚要在那里住宿，就坐在城里的街上，因为无人接他们进家住宿。
16 Behold, an old man came from his work out of the field at evening. Now the man was from the hill country of Ephraim, and he lived in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.
晚上，有一个老年人从田间做工回来。他原是以法莲山地的人，住在基比亚；那地方的人却是便雅悯人。
17 He lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the street of the city; and the old man said, “Where are you going? Where did you come from?”
老年人举目看见客人坐在城里的街上，就问他说：“你从哪里来？要往哪里去？”
18 He said to him, “We are passing from Bethlehem Judah to the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim. I am from there, and I went to Bethlehem Judah. I am going to the LORD’s house; and there is no one who has taken me into his house.
他回答说：“我们从犹大的伯利恒来，要往以法莲山地那边去。我原是那里的人，到过犹大的伯利恒，现在我往耶和华的殿去，在这里无人接我进他的家。
19 Yet there is both straw and feed for our donkeys; and there is bread and wine also for me, and for your servant, and for the young man who is with your servants. There is no lack of anything.”
其实我有粮草可以喂驴，我与我的妾，并我的仆人，有饼有酒，并不缺少什么。”
20 The old man said, “Peace be to you! Just let me supply all your needs, but don’t sleep in the street.”
老年人说：“愿你平安！你所需用的我都给你，只是不可在街上过夜。”
21 So he brought him into his house, and gave the donkeys fodder. Then they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
于是领他们到家里，喂上驴，他们就洗脚吃喝。
22 As they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain wicked fellows, surrounded the house, beating at the door; and they spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, “Bring out the man who came into your house, that we can have sex with him!”
他们心里正欢畅的时候，城中的匪徒围住房子，连连叩门，对房主老人说：“你把那进你家的人带出来，我们要与他交合。”
23 The man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said to them, “No, my brothers, please don’t act so wickedly; since this man has come into my house, don’t do this folly.
那房主出来对他们说：“弟兄们哪，不要这样作恶；这人既然进了我的家，你们就不要行这丑事。
24 Behold, here is my virgin daughter and his concubine. I will bring them out now. Humble them, and do with them what seems good to you; but to this man don’t do any such folly.”
我有个女儿，还是处女，并有这人的妾，我将她们领出来任凭你们玷辱她们，只是向这人不可行这样的丑事。”
25 But the men wouldn’t listen to him; so the man grabbed his concubine, and brought her out to them; and they had sex with her, and abused her all night until the morning. When the day began to dawn, they let her go.
那些人却不听从他的话。那人就把他的妾拉出去交给他们，他们便与她交合，终夜凌辱她，直到天色快亮才放她去。
26 Then the woman came in the dawning of the day, and fell down at the door of the man’s house where her lord was, until it was light.
天快亮的时候，妇人回到她主人住宿的房门前，就仆倒在地，直到天亮。
27 Her lord rose up in the morning and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way; and behold, the woman his concubine had fallen down at the door of the house, with her hands on the threshold.
早晨，她的主人起来开了房门，出去要行路，不料那妇人仆倒在房门前，两手搭在门槛上；
28 He said to her, “Get up, and let’s get going!” but no one answered. Then he took her up on the donkey; and the man rose up, and went to his place.
就对妇人说：“起来，我们走吧！”妇人却不回答。那人便将她驮在驴上，起身回本处去了。
29 When he had come into his house, he took a knife and cut up his concubine, and divided her, limb by limb, into twelve pieces, and sent her throughout all the borders of Israel.
到了家里，用刀将妾的尸身切成十二块，使人拿着传送以色列的四境。
30 It was so, that all who saw it said, “Such a deed has not been done or seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt to this day! Consider it, take counsel, and speak.”
凡看见的人都说：“从以色列人出埃及地，直到今日，这样的事没有行过，也没有见过。现在应当思想，大家商议当怎样办理。”
