Xaakinnada 19
1 Oo waagaas markii aanay reer binu Israa'iil boqor lahayn, waxaa jiray nin reer Laawi ah oo degganaa dhanka shishe oo dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim, oo kaasuna addoon buu ka guursaday Beytlaxam Yahuudah.
Now in those days, when there was no king in Israel, a Levite who lived in the remote hill country of Ephraim took for himself a concubine from Bethlehem in Judah.
2 Markaasay naagtiisii addoonta ahayd ka dhillowday, oo intay isagii ka tagtay ayay aadday gurigii aabbeheed oo ku yiil Beytlaxam Yahuudah, oo halkaasay joogtay intii afar bilood ah.
But she was unfaithful to him and left him to return to her father’s house in Bethlehem in Judah. After she had been there four months,
3 Markaasuu ninkeedii kacay oo iyadii doonay, inuu si raxmad leh ula hadlo oo soo celiyo; oo wuxuu u tegey iyadii, isagoo wata midiidinkiisii iyo laba dameer. Markaasay isagii soo gelisay gurigii aabbeheed; oo gabadha aabbeheedna markuu isagii arkay ayuu ku farxay inuu la kulmo.
her husband got up and went after her to speak kindly to her and bring her back, taking his servant and a pair of donkeys. So the girl brought him into her father’s house, and when her father saw him, he gladly welcomed him.
4 Markaasaa soddoggiis oo gabadha aabbeheed ahaa ayaa raajiyey isagii, oo saddex maalmood ayuu la joogay; markaasay wax cuneen oo cabbeen oo halkaasay ku hoydeen.
His father-in-law, the girl’s father, persuaded him to stay, so he remained with him three days, eating, drinking, and lodging there.
5 Oo maalintii afraad aroor hore ayay tooseen, oo wuxuuna u kacay inuu tago. Markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed wuxuu ku yidhi wiilkii uu soddogga u ahaa, Bal nafta ugu raaxee wuxoogaa cunto ah, dabadeedna waad tegaysaaye.
On the fourth day, they got up early in the morning and prepared to depart, but the girl’s father said to his son-in-law, “Refresh your heart with a morsel of bread, and then you can go.”
6 Sidaas daraaddeed way fadhiisteen, oo labadoodiiba wax bay wada cuneen oo cabbeen, markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed wuxuu ninkii ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, raalli ahow, caawa oo dhanna iska joog, oo qalbigaaguna ha faraxsanaado.
So they sat down and the two of them ate and drank together. Then the girl’s father said to the man, “Please agree to stay overnight and let your heart be merry.”
7 Markaasuu ninkii u kacay inuu tago; laakiinse soddoggiis baa ku sii adkeeyey, oo halkaasuu ku hoyday haddana.
The man got up to depart, but his father-in-law persuaded him, so he stayed there that night.
8 Oo haddana maalintii shanaad ayuu aroor hore u kacay inuu tago; markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye iska raaxayso, oo iska joog ilaa gelinka dambe, oo labadoodiiba wax bay wada cuneen.
On the fifth day, he got up early in the morning to depart, but the girl’s father said, “Please refresh your heart.” So they waited until late afternoon and the two of them ate.
9 Oo markii ninkii u kacay inuu tago, isagii iyo naagtiisii addoonta ahayd, iyo midiidinkiisiiba, ayaa soddoggiis oo ahaa gabadha aabbeheed ku yidhi, Bal eeg haatan qorraxdu waa sii dhacaysaaye, haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, bal caawa oo dhanna iska joog; bal eeg haatan waa gabbaldhac, de halkan isaga hoyo, in qalbigaagu iska faraxsanaado; oo haddana berri aroorta hore iska tag oo gurigaagii aad.
When the man got up to depart with his concubine and his servant, his father-in-law, the girl’s father, said to him, “Look, the day is drawing to a close. Please spend the night. See, the day is almost over. Spend the night here, that your heart may be merry. Then you can get up early tomorrow for your journey home.”
10 Laakiinse ninkii ma doonaynin inuu habeenkaas joogo, wuuse kacay oo tegey, oo wuxuu yimid meel ku toosan Yebuus, (taas oo ah Yeruusaalem); oo wuxuu watay laba dameer oo kooraysan, oo naagtiisii addoonta ahaydna way la socotay.
But the man was unwilling to spend the night. He got up and departed, and arrived opposite Jebus (that is, Jerusalem), with his two saddled donkeys and his concubine.
11 Oo markay Yebuus ku soo dhowaadeenna maalintii horay u badatay; markaasaa midiidinkii wuxuu sayidkiisii ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, kaalay oo aynu ku leexanno magaaladan reer Yebuus oo aynu u hoyanno.
When they were near Jebus and the day was almost gone, the servant said to his master, “Please, let us stop at this Jebusite city and spend the night here.”
12 Kolkaasaa sayidkiisii ku yidhi, Dad shisheeye ah oo aan reer binu Israa'iil ahayn magaaladiis ku leexan mayno; laakiinse waxaynu u gudbaynaa xagga Gibecaah.
But his master replied, “We will not turn aside to the city of foreigners, where there are no Israelites. We will go on to Gibeah.”
13 Oo wuxuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, Kaalay oo aynu ku dhowaanno meelahan middood; oo waxaynu u hoyanaynaa Gibecaah, ama Raamaah.
He continued, “Come, let us try to reach one of these towns to spend the night in Gibeah or Ramah.”
14 Kolkaasay iska sii socdeen oo jidkoodii qaadeen; oo waxaa qorraxdu ugu dhacday iyagoo ag jooga Gibecaah oo ay reer Benyaamiin lahaayeen.
So they continued on their journey, and the sun set as they neared Gibeah in Benjamin.
15 Markaasay halkaas ku leexdeen inay u hoydaan Gibecaah. Kolkaasuu galay, oo wuxuu fadhiistay jidkii magaalada; waayo, ninna gurigiisii ma gelin inay u hoydaan.
They stopped to go in and lodge in Gibeah. The Levite went in and sat down in the city square, but no one would take them into his home for the night.
16 Oo fiidkii oday baa shuqulkiisii beerta ka yimid. Haddaba ninku wuxuu ahaa reer Efrayimkii dalka buuraha leh degganaa, oo Gibecaahna qariib buu ku ahaa; laakiinse dadkii meesha degganaa waxay ahaayeen reer Benyaamiin.
That evening an old man from the hill country of Ephraim, who was residing in Gibeah (the men of that place were Benjamites), came in from his work in the field.
17 Markaasuu indhihiisii kor u qaaday, oo wuxuu jidkii magaalada ku arkay ninkii socotada ahaa. Markaasaa odaygii yidhi, Xaggee baad u socotaa? Oo xaggee baad ka timid?
When he looked up and saw the traveler in the city square, the old man asked, “Where are you going, and where have you come from?”
18 Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaannu ka gudbaynaa Beytlaxam Yahuudah; oo dhanka shishe oo dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim ayaannu tegaynaa. Anigu xaggaas baan ka imid, oo waxaan tegey Beytlaxam Yahuudah; oo haatan waxaan u socdaa guriga Rabbiga, oo nin gurigiisa i geliyeyna ma jiro.
The Levite replied, “We are traveling from Bethlehem in Judah to the remote hill country of Ephraim, where I am from. I went to Bethlehem in Judah, and now I am going to the house of the LORD; but no one has taken me into his home,
19 Weliba dameerahayaga waa loo hayaa caws iyo cuntoba; oo kibis iyo khamrina waa u diyaar aniga iyo gabadhaada addoonta ah, iyo weliba ninka dhallinyarada ah ee nala socda annagoo addoommadaada ah, haddaba wax loo baahan yahay ma jiraan.
even though there is both straw and feed for our donkeys, and bread and wine for me and the maidservant and young man with me. There is nothing that we, your servants, lack.”
20 Oo markaasaa odaygii yidhi, Nabadu ha kula jirto; habase yeeshee waxaad u baahan tahay oo dhammu ha i saarnaadeen; laakiin jidka ha u hoyan.
“Peace to you,” said the old man. “Let me supply everything you need. Only do not spend the night in the square.”
21 Markaasuu gurigiisii geliyey, oo dameerihii cuntuu siiyey; oo iyana intay cago maydheen ayay wax cuneen oo cabbeen.
So he brought him to his house and fed his donkeys. And they washed their feet and ate and drank.
22 Oo intay farxayeen waxaa yimid raggii magaalada oo niman xunxun ah, oo intay guriga hareereeyeen ayay albaabkii garaaceen, markaasay la hadleen odaygii guriga lahaa, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Noo soo bixi ninkii gurigaaga soo galay, aannu u tagnee.
While they were enjoying themselves, suddenly the wicked men of the city surrounded the house. Pounding on the door, they said to the old man who owned the house, “Bring out the man who came to your house, so we can have relations with him!”
23 Markaasaa ninkii guriga lahaa dibadda ugu baxay oo ku yidhi, Maya, walaalahayow, waan idin baryayaaye, ha samaynina wax sidaas u shar ah, maxaa yeelay, ninkanu gurigayguu galay ee ha ku samaynina xumaantan.
The owner of the house went out and said to them, “No, my brothers, do not do this wicked thing! After all, this man is a guest in my house. Do not commit this outrage.
24 Bal eega, waxaa jooga gabadhaydii oo bikrad ah iyo naagtiisii addoonta ahayd; haddaba iyagaan idiin soo bixinayaaye, iyaga kufsada oo sidaad doonaysaan ka yeela; laakiinse ninkan ha ku samaynina xumaan caynkan ah.
Look, let me bring out my virgin daughter and the man’s concubine, and you can use them and do with them as you wish. But do not do such a vile thing to this man.”
25 Laakiinse raggii ma ay doonaynin inay dhegaystaan, sidaas daraaddeed ninkii wuxuu qabtay naagtiisii addoonta ahayd, dibadduuna ugu soo saaray; kolkaasay iyadii kufsadeen, oo si xun bay u galeen habeenkii oo dhan ilaa subaxdii; oo markii waagu baryayay ayay iska sii daayeen.
But the men would not listen to him. So the Levite took his concubine and sent her outside to them, and they raped her and abused her throughout the night, and at dawn they let her go.
26 Markaasaa naagtii timid markii waagu soo kaahay, oo waxay ku dhacday albaabkii ninkii gurigiisa oo uu sayidkeedii joogay, ilaa ay iftiin noqotay.
Early that morning, the woman went back to the house where her master was staying, collapsed at the doorway, and lay there until it was light.
27 Markaasaa sayidkeedii kacay aroortii, oo albaabbadii guriga furay, oo inuu tago ayuu dibadda ugu soo baxay; oo bal eeg, naagtiisii addoonta ahayd waxay ku dhacday guriga iriddiisa, oo gacmaheeduna waxay saarnaayeen marinka.
In the morning, when her master got up and opened the doors of the house to go out on his journey, there was his concubine, collapsed in the doorway of the house, with her hands on the threshold.
28 Markaasuu iyadii ku yidhi, Naa bal kac, oo ina keen aan tagnee; laakiinse cidna uma ay jawaabin; markaasuu dameerkiisii saaray, oo meeshiisii u kacay.
“Get up,” he told her. “Let us go.” But there was no response. So the man put her on his donkey and set out for home.
29 Oo markuu gurigiisii galay ayuu mindi qaaday, oo intuu naagtiisii addoonta ahayd qabtay ayuu xubin xubin u kala gooyay, oo wuxuu ka dhigay laba iyo toban cad, oo wuxuu u diray xuduudka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan inta ka dhex leh.
When he reached his house, he picked up a knife, took hold of his concubine, cut her limb by limb into twelve pieces, and sent her throughout the territory of Israel.
30 Oo kulli wax alla wixii arkayba waxay yidhaahdeen, Maalintii ay dalka Masar ka soo baxeen ilaa maantadan la joogo reer binu Israa'iil laguma samayn, lagumana arag, shuqul caynkan ah; haddaba bal ka fiirsada, oo ka tashada, oo ka hadla.
And everyone who saw it said, “Nothing like this has been seen or done from the day the Israelites came out of the land of Egypt until this day. Think it over, take counsel, and speak up!”
