Lunakanawai 19
1 I A manawa, aohe alii ma ka Iseraela, a e noho ana kekahi Levi ma kekahi aoao o ka mauna o Eperaima, lawe ia i haiawahine nana, noloko mai o Betelehemaiuda.
Now in those days, when there was no king in Israel, a certain Levite was living in the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he got for himself a servant-wife from Beth-lehem-judah.
2 Moe kolohe ku e mai la kana haiawahine ia ia, a hele aku, mai ona aku la, a i ka hale o kona makuakane, ma Betelehemaiuda, a malaila no ia i na malama eha.
And his servant-wife was angry with him, and went away from him to her father's house at Beth-lehem-judah, and was there for four months.
3 Ku ae la kana kane a hahai aku la ia ia, e olelo lokomaikai aku ia ia, a e hoihoi mai ia ia. Me ia pu no kana kauwa, a me na hoki elua. Hookomo aku la oia ia ia i ka hale o kona makuakane. A ike mai la ka makuakane o ua wahine la ia ia, olioli iho la oia, i ka halawai ana me ia.
Then her husband got up and went after her, with the purpose of talking kindly to her, and taking her back with him; he had with him his young man and two asses: and she took him into her father's house, and her father, when he saw him, came forward to him with joy.
4 Kaohi ae la kona makuahonowaikane ia ia, o ka makuakane hoi o ua wahine la; a noho pu iho la oia me ia, i na la ekolu; a ai uo lakou, a inu, a moe iho la malaila.
And his father-in-law, the girl's father, kept him there for three days; and they had food and drink and took their rest there.
5 A hiki i ka ha o ka la, i ko lakou ala ana i kakahiaka nui, ku mai la ia e hele. I mai la ka makuakane o ka wahine i kana hunonakane, E hooluolu i kou naau me kahi berena iki, a mahope iho, e hele aku olua.
Now on the fourth day they got up early in the morning and he made ready to go away; but the girl's father said to his son-in-law, Take a little food to keep up your strength, and then go on your way.
6 Noho no laua, ai iho la, a inu pu hoi laua; no ka mea, ua olelo mai ka makuakane o ua wahine la i kela kanaka, E lealea mai oe i ka noho i keia po, a e hooluolu i kou naau.
So seating themselves they had food and drink, the two of them together; and the girl's father said to the man, If it is your pleasure, take your rest here tonight, and let your heart be glad.
7 A i ke ala ana o ke kanaka e hele, koi mai la kona makuahonowaikane ia ia; nolaila, noho iho la ia ia po.
And the man got up to go away, but his father-in-law would not let him go, so he took his rest there again for the night.
8 I ka lima o ka la, ala ae la ia i kakahiaka nui, e hele. I mai la ka makuakane o ka wahine, E hooluolu paha oe i kou naau. Kakali iho la laua a auwi ae ka la, a ai iho la laua.
Then early on the morning of the fifth day he got up to go away; but the girl's father said, Keep up your strength; so the two of them had a meal, and the man and his woman and his servant did not go till after the middle of the day.
9 A i ke ku ana o ke kanaka e hele, oia a me kana wahine, a me kana kauwa, alaila, olelo mai kona makuahonowaikane ia ia, o ka makuakane hoi o ua wahine la, Aia hoi, ua auwi ae ka la, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e noho hou i keia po, kokoke po ka la, ea, e moe maanei i lealea kou naau; a apopo e hele oe i kakahiaka nui, a hoi aku i kou halelewa.
And when they got up to go away, his father-in-law, the girl's father, said to him, Now evening is coming on, so do not go tonight; see, the day is almost gone; take your rest here and let your heart be glad, and tomorrow early, go on your way back to your house.
10 Aole i ae mai ua kanaka la e moe ia po, aka, ku ae la ia a hele aku la, a hiki ma ke ala o Iebusa, oia hoi o Ierusalema; aia no me ia pu na hoki elua, i paa i na noho lio, a o kana wahine kekahi me ia.
But the man would not be kept there that night, and he got up and went away and came opposite to Jebus (which is Jerusalem); and he had with him the two asses, ready for travelling, and his woman.
11 A kokoke lakou i Iebusa, ua auwi loa ka la, i ae la ke kauwa i kona haku, E kipa ae kakou i keia kulanakauhale o ko Iebusa, a moe ilaila.
When they got near Jebus the day was far gone; and the servant said to his master, Now let us go from our road into this town of the Jebusites and take our night's rest there.
12 I mai la kona haku ia ia, Aole kakou e kipa ae ilaila, i ke kulanakauhale o kanaka e, aole no na mamo a Iseraela; e hele aku kakou, a Gibea.
But his master said to him, We will not go out of our way into a strange town, whose people are not of the children of Israel; but we will go on to Gibeah.
13 I mai la ia i kana kauwa, Ea, e hele aku kakou e moe i ka po ma Gibea, a i Rama paha.
And he said to his servant, Come, let us go on to one of these places, stopping for the night in Gibeah or Ramah.
14 Hele aku la lakou i ko lakou wahi i hele ai; a ua po ka la ia lakou ma Gibea no Beniamina.
So they went on their way; and the sun went down when they were near Gibeah in the land of Benjamin.
15 Kipa ae la lakou e komo ilaila, e moe ai ma Gibea; a hiki aku la ia, noho iho la ma ke alanui o ke kulanakauhale; no ka mea, aohe kanaka nana lakou i hookipa i kona hale e moe ai.
And they went off the road there with the purpose of stopping for the night in Gibeah: and he went in, seating himself in the street of the town, for no one took them into his house for the night.
16 Aia hoi i ke ahiahi, hele mai kekahi kanaka elemakule, mai kana hana, mai ke kula mai, he kanaka no ka mauna o Eperaima, a noho iho la ma Gibea. Aka, no Beniamina na kanaka o ia wahi.
Now when it was evening they saw an old man coming back from his work in the fields; he was from the hill-country of Ephraim and was living in Gibeah: but the men of the place were Benjamites.
17 Alawa ae la kona mau maka iluna, ike iho la i ke kanaka, he malihini ma ke alanui o ke kulanakauhale. I ae la ua kanaka elemakule nei, E hele ana oe ihea? a mai hea mai oe i hele mai ai?
And when he saw the traveller in the street of the town, the old man said, Where are you going? and where do you come from?
18 I mai la kela ia ia, E hele ana makou mai Betelehemaiuda a i na mokuna o ka mauna o Eperaima, nolaila hoi au, a hele aku au i Betelehemaiuda; a ke hoi aku nei au i ka hale o Iehova, aole hoi kanaka nana wau i hookipa ae i ka hale.
And he said to him, We are on our way from Beth-lehem-judah to the inmost parts of the hill-country of Ephraim: I came from there and went to Beth-lehem-judah: now I am on my way back to my house, but no man will take me into his house.
19 He mauu no, a me ka ai na na hoki a makou, a he berena no a me ka waina na'u, a na kau kauwawahine, a na ke kanaka hou o kau mau kauwa nei; aohe mea e hemahema ai.
But we have dry grass and food for our asses, as well as bread and wine for me, and for the woman, and for the young man with us: we have no need of anything.
20 I ae la ke kanaka elemakule, Aloha oe, aka, maluna o'u kou nele a pau; mai moe hoi ma ke alanui.
And the old man said, Peace be with you; let all your needs be my care; only do not take your rest in the street.
21 Hookomo iho la oia ia ia i kona hale, hanai iho la i na hoki; a holoi no hoi lakou i ko lakou wawae, ai iho la, a inu hoi.
So he took them into his house and gave the asses food; and after washing their feet they took food and drink.
22 A i ko lakou hoolealea ana i ko lakou naau, aia hoi na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale, he poe kanaka hewa, hoopuni mai la lakou i ka hale, a kikeke i ka puka, olelo mai i ka mea hale, i ua kanaka elemakule nei, i mai la, E lawe mai iwaho nei i ke kanaka i hele mai i kou hale, i ike makou ia ia.
While they were taking their pleasure at the meal, the good-for-nothing men of the town came round the house, giving blows on the door; and they said to the old man, the master of the house, Send out that man who came to your house, so that we may take our pleasure with him.
23 A o ke kanaka, ka haku o ka hale, hele aku la ia iwaho io lakou la, i aku la ia lakou, Ua oki, e na hoahanau, mai hana hewa oukou pela. Ua hele mai keia kanaka i ko'u hale, mai hana hoi oukou i keia mea lapuwale.
So the man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said, No, my brothers, do not this evil thing; this man has come into my house, and you are not to do him this wrong.
24 Eia hoi ka'u kaikamahine, he puupaa, a me kana wahine no hoi, o laua ka'u e lawe mai iwaho nei, e hoohaahaa oukou ia laua, a e hana hoi ia laua i ka mea i pono i ko oukou mau maka; aka, mai hana ia mea lapuwale i keia kanaka.
See, here is my daughter, a virgin, and his servant-wife: I will send them out for you to take them and do with them whatever you will. But do no such thing of shame to this man.
25 Aole hoolohe ia poe kanaka ia ia, Nolaila, lalau iho la ke kanaka i kana haiawahine, a lawe ia ia iwaho io lakou la, a ike mai la lakou ia ia, a hana ino lakou ia ia ia po a pau, a kakahiaka; a i ke ao ana ae, kuu mai la ia ia.
But the men would not give ear to him: so the man took his woman and sent her out to them; and they took her by force, using her for their pleasure all night till the morning; and when dawn came they let her go.
26 I ka puka ana o ka malamalama, hele mai ua wahine la, a hina iho la ma ka puka o ka hale o ua kanaka la, ma kahi a kona haku, a malamalama ae la.
Then at the dawn of day the woman came, and, falling down at the door of the man's house where her master was, was stretched there till it was light.
27 Ala mai la kona haku i kakahiaka, a wehe ae la i ka puka o ka hale, a puka aku e hele ma kona ala; aia hoi, ua hina ka wahine ana ma ka puka o ka hale, aia hoi kona mau lima iluna o ka paepae.
In the morning her master got up, and opening the door of the house went out to go on his way; and he saw his servant-wife stretched on the earth at the door of the house with her hands on the step.
28 I aku la keia ia ia, E ala mai, e hele kaua. Aohe mea pane mai, Alaila, hapai ae la ua kanaka la ia ia, a kau iho la iluna o ka hoki Ku ae la ke kanaka a hoi aku la i kona wahi.
And he said to her, Get up and let us be going; but there was no answer; so he took her up and put her on the ass, and went on his way and came to his house.
29 A hiki aku la ia i kona hale, lawe ae la ia i ka pahi, a lalau aku la i kana haiawahine, a okioki iho la ia ia, a me kona mau iwi, i umikumamalua apana, a hoouna aku la ia mea, i na mokuna a pau o ka Iseraela.
And when he had come to his house, he got his knife, and took the woman, cutting her up bone by bone into twelve parts, which he sent through all Israel.
30 Eia hoi, o ka poe a pau i ike ia mea, i ae la lakou, Aohe mea i hanaia e like me neia, aole hoi i ikeia, mai ka la i hele mai ai na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, a hiki mai i neia la. E noonoo oukou ia mea, a e kukakuka iho, a e olelo mai.
And he gave orders to the men whom he sent, saying, This is what you are to say to all the men of Israel, Has ever an act like this been done from the day when the children of Israel came out of Egypt to this day? Give thought to it, turning it over in your minds, and give your opinion of it.
