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.
And there was a Levite sojourning in the sides of mount Ephraim, and he took to himself a concubine from Bethleem Juda.
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 concubine departed from him, and went away from him to the house of her father to Bethleem Juda, and she was there 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.
And her husband rose up, and went after her to speak kindly to her, to recover her to himself; and he had his young man with him, and a pair of asses; and she brought him into the house of her father; and the father of the damsel saw him, and was well pleased to meet him.
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 father of the damsel, constrained him, and he stayed with him for three days; and they ate and drank, and lodged 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.
And it came to pass on the fourth day that they rose early, and he stood up to depart; and the father of the damsel said to his son-in-law, Strengthen thy heart with a morsel of bread, and afterwards ye shall go.
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 they two sat down together and ate and drank: and the father of the damsel said to her husband, Tarry now the night, and let thy heart be merry.
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 rose up to depart; but his father-in-law constrained him, and he stayed and lodged there.
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.
And he rose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; and the father of the damsel said, Strengthen now thine heart, and quit thyself as a soldier till the day decline; and the two ate.
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 the man rose up to depart, he and his concubine, and his young man; but his father-in-law the father of the damsel said to him, Behold now, the day has declined toward evening; lodge here, an let thy heart rejoice; and ye shall rise early to-morrow for your journey, and thou shalt go to thy habitation.
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 lodge there, but he arose and departed, and came to the part opposite Jebus, (this is Jerusalem, ) and [there was] with him a pair of asses saddled, and his concubine [was] with him.
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.
And they came as far as Jebus: and the day had far advanced, and the young man said to his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn aside to this city of the Jebusites, and let us lodge in it.
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.
And his master said to him, We will not turn aside to a strange city, where there is not one of the children of Israel, but we will pass on as far as Gabaa.
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 young man, Come, and let us draw nigh to one of the places, and we will lodge in Gabaa or in Rama.
14 Hele aku la lakou i ko lakou wahi i hele ai; a ua po ka la ia lakou ma Gibea no Beniamina.
And they passed by and went on, and the sun went down upon them near to Gabaa, which is in 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 turned aside thence to go in to lodge in Gabaa; and they went in, and sat down in the street of the city, and there was no one who conducted them into a house to lodge.
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.
And behold, an old man came out of the field from his work in the evening; and the man was of mount Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gabaa, and the men of the place [were] sons of Benjamin.
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 he lifted up his eyes, and saw a traveller in the street of the city; and the old man said to him, Whither goest thou, and whence comest thou?
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 passing by from Bethleem Juda to the sides of mount Ephraim: I am from thence, and I went as far as Bethleem Juda, and I am going home, and there is no man to 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.
Yet is there straw and food for our asses, and bread and wine for me and my handmaid and the young man with thy servants; there is no want 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] to thee; only be every want of thine upon me, only do thou by no means lodge 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.
And he brought him into his house, and made room for his asses; and they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
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.
And they [were] comforting their heart, when, behold, the men of the city, sons of transgressors, compassed the house, knocking at the door: and they spoke to the old man the owner of the house, saying, Bring out the man who came into thy house, that we may know 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.
And the master of the house came out to them, and said, Nay, brethren, do not ye wrong, I pray you, after this man has come into my house; do not ye this folly.
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.
Behold my daughter a virgin, and the man's concubine: I will bring them out, and humble ye them, and do to them that which is good in your eyes; but to this man do not this folly.
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 consent to hearken to him; so the man laid hold of his concubine, and brought her out to them; and they knew her, and abused her all night till the morning, and let her go when the morning dawned.
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.
And the woman came toward morning, and fell down at the door of the house where her husband was, until 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.
And her husband rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went forth to go on his journey; and, behold, the woman his concubine had fallen down by the doors of the house, and her hands were on the threshold.
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, Rise, and let us go; and she answered not, for she was dead: and he took her upon his ass, and went to his place.
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 he took his sword, and laid hold of his concubine, and divided her into twelve parts, and sent them to every coast of 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 it was so, that every one who saw it said, [Such a day] as this has not happened nor has been seen from the day of the going up of the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt until this day: take ye counsel concerning it, and speak.
