< Sog̒u 19 >
1 Un tanīs dienās ķēniņa nebija iekš Israēla. Un viens vīrs, Levits, piemita aiz Efraīma kalniem, tas sev ņēma lieku sievu no Jūda Bētlemes.
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.
2 Bet viņa liekā sieva pie viņa būdama dzina maucību un nogāja no viņa sava tēva namā uz Bētlemi Judā, un tur sabija kādu laiku, četrus mēnešus.
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.
3 Tad viņas vīrs cēlās un gāja viņai pakaļ, ka tas mīlīgi ar viņu runātu un viņu vestu atpakaļ, un viņa puisis bija viņam līdz un pāris ēzeļu; un viņa to ieveda sava tēva namā, un kad tās sievietes tēvs viņu redzēja, tad viņš līksmojās viņam pretī (iedams).
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.
4 Un viņa tēvocis, tās sievietes tēvs, viņu paturēja, ka tas trīs dienas pie viņa palika, un tie ēda un dzēra un palika tur par nakti.
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.
5 Un ceturtā dienā tie steidzās agri un cēlās iet projām. Tad tās sievietes tēvs sacīja uz savu znotu: stiprini savu sirdi ar kādu maizes kumosu, un tad jūs varat iet.
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.”
6 Tad tie apsēdās un ēda abi kopā un dzēra, un tās sievietes tēvs sacīja uz to vīru: dari lūdzams tā un paliec par nakti, un lai tava sirds līksmojās.
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.”
7 Bet tas vīrs cēlās iet projām, un viņa tēvocis to ļoti turēja, ka tam bija jāgriežas atpakaļ un tur jāpaliek par nakti.
The man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he stayed there again.
8 Kad nu viņš piektā dienā no rīta taisījās aiziet, tad tās sievietes tēvs sacīja: stiprini jel savu sirdi; un tie kavējās, līdz kamēr vakars metās, un tie abi ēda kopā.
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.
9 Tad tas vīrs cēlās aiziet, viņš un viņa liekā sieva un viņa puisis. Bet viņa tēvocis, tās sievietes tēvs, uz viņu sacīja: redzi jel, šī diena jau līdz vakaram ir pavadīta, paliec jel par nakti; redzi, šī diena beidzās, paliec par nakti šeitan un lai tava sirds līksmojās, dodaties rīt agri uz savu ceļu un ej uz savu dzīvokli.
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.”
10 Bet tas vīrs negribēja par nakti palikt, un cēlās un aizgāja un nāca pret Jebuzu, tā ir Jeruzāleme, viņš un tas pāris apkrautu ēzeļu un viņa liekā sieva ar viņu.
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.
11 Kad nu tie pie Jebuzas bija, tad jau bija pavakars, un tas puisis sacīja uz savu kungu: nāc lūdzams un ieiesim šinī Jebusiešu pilsētā un paliksim tur par nakti.
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.”
12 Bet viņa kungs uz viņu sacīja: mēs negribam griezties uz svešu pilsētu, kas nav no Israēla bērniem, bet gribam noiet līdz Ģibejai.
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.”
13 Tad viņš sacīja uz savu puisi: nāc, ka mēs uz vienu no šīm vietām tiekam, un Ģibejā vai Ramā par nakti paliekam.
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.”
14 Tā tie gāja tālāk un staigāja, un saule tiem nogāja it klātu pie Ģibejas, kas pieder Benjaminam.
So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
15 Un tie griezās uz turieni, ka nāktu un Ģibejā paliktu par nakti. Kad viņš nu iegāja, tad viņš apsēdās kādā pilsētas ielā, jo tur nebija neviena, kas tiem savā namā gribēja dot naktsmājas vietu.
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.
16 Un redzi, viens vecs vīrs nāca vakarā no sava darba no tīruma, un tas vīrs arīdzan bija no Efraīma kalniem, bet piemita Ģibejā; bet tās vietas ļaudis bija Benjaminieši.
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.
17 Kad tas vecais vīrs nu savas acis pacēla, tad viņš to ceļa vīru ieraudzīja pilsētas ielā un sacīja: uz kurieni tu ej? Un no kurienes tu nāc?
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?”
18 Un tas uz viņu sacīja: mēs no Jūda Bētlemes ejam aiz Efraīma kalniem, no kurienes es arī esmu, un es biju nogājis uz Jūda Bētlemi un es eju uz Tā Kunga namu, un neviena nav, kas man mājas vietu dod savā namā.
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.
19 Un tomēr salmi un ēdamais mums priekš mūsu ēzeļiem ir, arī maize un vīns priekš manis un priekš tavas kalpones un priekš tā puiša, kas ir pie taviem kalpiem; mums nekādas lietas netrūkst.
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.”
20 Tad tas vecais vīrs sacīja: esi ar mieru, viss, kas tev trūkst, ir pie manis, tikai nepaliec par nakti uz ielas.
The old man said, “Peace be to you! Just let me supply all your needs, but don’t sleep in the street.”
21 Un viņš to veda savā namā un deva priekš tiem ēzeļiem ēdamo. Kad tie nu savas kājas bija mazgājuši, tad tie ēda un dzēra.
So he brought him into his house, and gave the donkeys fodder. Then they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
22 Kad tie nu savu sirdi atspirdzināja, redzi, tad tās pilsētas vīri, bezdievīgi ļaudis, apstāja to namu un klaudzināja pie durvīm. Un tie sacīja uz to veco vīru, tā nama saimnieku: izved to vīru, kas nācis tavā namā, ka mēs to atzīstam.
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!”
23 Un tas vīrs, tā nama saimnieks, pie tiem izgāja un uz tiem sacīja: ne tā, mani brāļi, nedariet lūdzami tādu grēku; kad nu šis vīrs manā namā nācis, nedariet šo trakumu.
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.
24 Redzi, man ir viena meita, jaunava, un viņam lieka sieva, tās es jums gribu izvest, ka jūs tās piesmejat un tām darāt, kas jums patīk, bet pie šā vīra nedarāt tādu trakumu.
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.”
25 Bet tie vīri to negribēja klausīt; tad tas vīrs sagrāba savu lieko sievu un to izveda pie viņiem ārā, un viņi to atzina un piesmēja cauru nakti līdz rītam un atlaida, kad gaisma metās.
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.
26 Un šī sieva nāca ap rīta laiku un krita pie zemes priekš tā vīra nama durvīm, kur viņas kungs iekšā bija, (un tur gulēja) līdz pat gaismai.
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.
27 Kad nu viņas kungs rītā cēlās un nama durvis atdarīja un izgāja, savu ceļu staigāt, redzi, tad viņa liekā sieva gulēja priekš nama durvīm un viņas rokas uz sliekšņa.
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.
28 Un viņš uz to sacīja: celies, ejam projām, bet tā neatbildēja. Tad tas vīrs to ņēma uz savu ēzeli un cēlās un gāja uz savām mājām.
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.
29 Kad nu viņš savā namā nāca, tad viņš ņēma nazi un sagrāba savu lieko sievu un to sakapāja ar viņas kauliem divpadsmit daļās un to sūtīja uz visām Israēla robežām.
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.
30 Un ikviens, kas to redzēja, tas sacīja: tāda lieta, kā šī, nav notikusi nedz redzēta, kamēr Israēla bērni no Ēģiptes zemes izgājuši līdz šai dienai. Tad nu jūs ņemiet to vērā, dodiet padomu un runājiet.
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.”
