< Mga Hukom 19 >
1 At nangyari nang mga araw na yaon, nang walang hari sa Israel, na may isang Levita na nakikipamayan sa malayong dako ng lupaing maburol ng Ephraim, na kumuha ng babae mula sa Bethlehem-juda.
It happened in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite sojourning on the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim, who took for himself a secondary wife from Bethlehem Judah.
2 At ang kaniyang babae ay nagpatutot at iniwan siya na napasa bahay ng kaniyang ama sa Bethlehem-juda, at dumoon sa loob ng apat na buwan.
His secondary wife was angry with him and went away from him to her father's house in Bethlehem of Judah, and was there about four months.
3 At ang kaniyang asawa ay yumaon at sumunod sa kaniya, upang makiusap na maigi sa kaniya, na ibalik siya, na kasama ang kaniyang bataan, at dalawang magkatuwang na asno: at ipinasok siya ng babae sa bahay ng kaniyang ama: at nang makita siya ng ama ng babae, ay galak na sinalubong siya.
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. And she brought him into her father's house; and when the father of the young woman saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.
4 At pinigil siya ng kaniyang biyanan, ng ama ng babae; at siya'y tumahang kasama niya na tatlong araw: sa gayo'y sila'y nagkainan at naginuman, at tumuloy roon.
His father-in-law, the young woman's father, welcomed him; and he stayed with him three days. So they ate and drank and stayed there.
5 At nangyari nang ikaapat na araw, na sila'y bumangong maaga ng kinaumagahan, at siya'y bumangon upang yumaon: at sinabi ng ama ng babae sa kaniyang manugang, Palakasin mo muna ang iyong puso ng isang subong tinapay, at pagkatapos ay ipagpatuloy ninyo ang inyong lakad.
It happened on the fourth day, that they arose early in the morning, and he rose up to depart: and the young woman's father said to his son-in-law, "Refresh yourself with a piece of bread, and after that you may go."
6 Sa gayo'y naupo sila, at kumain at uminom silang dalawa: at sinabi ng ama ng babae sa lalake, Isinasamo ko sa iyo na magsaya ka, at magpahinga sa buong gabi, at matuwa ang iyong puso.
So they sat down, ate, and drank, both of them together. Then the young woman's father said to the man, "Please agree to stay the night, and enjoy yourself."
7 At ang lalake ay bumangon upang umalis; nguni't pinilit siya ng kaniyang biyanan; at siya'y tumigil uli roon.
The man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he stayed there again.
8 At siya'y bumangong maaga sa kinaumagahan nang ikalimang araw upang yumaon; at sinabi ng ama ng babae, Isinasamo ko sa iyong palakasin mo muna ang iyong puso, at maghintay ka hanggang sa kumulimlim ang araw; at sila'y kumain, silang dalawa.
He arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; and the young woman's father said, "Please refresh yourself and stay until the day declines." And the two of them ate and drank.
9 At nang tumindig ang lalake upang yumaon, siya, at ang kaniyang babae, at ang kaniyang bataan, ay sinabi ng kaniyang biyanan, na ama ng kaniyang babae, sa kaniya, Narito, ngayo'y ang araw ay gumagabi na, isinasamo ko sa inyong magpahinga sa buong gabi: narito, ang araw ay nananaw; tumigil dito, upang ang iyong puso ay sumaya; at bukas ay yumaon kayong maaga sa inyong paglakad, upang makauwi ka.
When the man rose up with his secondary wife and his servant to leave, his father-in-law, the young woman's father, said to him, "Look, now the day draws toward evening, please stay the night. Look, the day grows to an end, stay here, and enjoy yourself; and tomorrow you can get up early for your journey so that you may go home."
10 Nguni't hindi na inibig ng lalake na magpahinga roon nang gabing yaon, kundi siya'y tumindig at yumaon at tinapat ang Jebus (na siyang Jerusalem): at may dala siyang dalawang magkatuwang na asno na gayak; ang kaniyang babae ay kasama rin niya.
But the man wouldn't stay that night, but he rose up and departed, and went toward Jebus (that is, Jerusalem). And there were with him a couple of saddled donkeys, and his secondary wife and his servant were with him.
11 Nang sila'y nasa tabi na ng Jebus, ang araw ay nananaw; at sinabi ng bataan sa kaniyang panginoon, Isinasamo ko sa iyo na halina, at tayo'y lumiko sa bayang ito ng mga Jebuseo, at tumigil dito.
When they were by Jebus, the day was almost gone, and the servant said to his master, "Please come and let us stop at this city of the Jebusites, and spend the night in it."
12 At sinabi ng kaniyang panginoon sa kaniya, Hindi tayo liliko sa bayan ng iba, na hindi sa mga anak ni Israel; kundi dadaan tayo sa Gabaa.
His master said to him, "We won't go into the city of a foreigner that is not of the children of Israel, but we will pass over to Gibeah."
13 At sinabi niya sa kaniyang alipin, Halina at tayo'y lumapit sa isa sa mga dakong ito; at tayo'y titigil sa Gabaa o sa Rama.
He said to his servant, "Come and let us try to reach one of those places and we will spend the night in Gibeah or Ramah."
14 Sa gayo'y nagdaan sila at nagpatuloy ng kanilang paglakad; at nilubugan sila ng araw sa malapit sa Gabaa, na nauukol sa Benjamin.
So they passed on and went their way; and the sun set on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
15 At sila'y lumiko roon, upang pumasok na tumigil sa Gabaa: at sila'y pumasok, at naupo sila sa lansangan ng bayan: sapagka't walang taong magpatuloy sa kanila.
They turned that way to go in to spend the night in Gibeah. And he went in and they sat down in the street of the city; for there was no one who would take them into their house to spend the night.
16 At, narito, may umuwing isang matandang lalake na galing sa kaniyang paggawa sa bukid sa paglubog ng araw; ang lalake nga'y taga lupaing maburol ng Ephraim, at nakikipamayan sa Gabaa; nguni't ang mga tao sa dakong yaon ay mga Benjamita.
Look, there came an old man from his work out in the field at evening. Now the man was of the hill country of Ephraim, and he was residing in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.
17 At itiningin niya ang kaniyang mga mata, at nakita niya ang naglalakbay sa lansangan ng bayan; at sinabi ng matandang lalake, Saan ka paroroon? at saan ka nanggaling?
He lifted up his eyes, and saw the traveler in the street of the city. And the old man said, "Where are you going, and where did you come from?"
18 At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Kami ay nagdadaang mula sa Bethlehem-juda na patungo sa malayong dako ng lupaing maburol ng Ephraim; tagaroon ako at ako'y naparon sa Bethlehem-juda: at ako'y pasasabahay ng Panginoon; at walang taong magpatuloy sa akin.
He said to him, "We are passing from Bethlehem in Judah to the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim. I am from there, and I went to Bethlehem in Judah. And I am going to my home, and there is no one who will take me into his home.
19 Gayon man ay may dayami at damo para sa aming mga asno; at may tinapay at alak naman para sa akin, at sa iyong lingkod na babae, at sa batang kasama ng iyong mga lingkod: walang kakulangang anomang bagay,
Yet there is both straw and feed for our donkeys, and there is bread and wine also for me, and for your female servant, and for the young man who is with your servants. There is no lack of anything."
20 At sinabi ng matandang lalake, Kapayapaan nawa ang sumaiyo; sa anomang paraa'y pabayaan mo sa akin ang lahat ng iyong mga kailangan: at huwag ka lamang tumigil sa lansangan.
And the old man said, "Peace be to you. I will take care of all your needs; however, do not spend the night in the square."
21 Sa gayo'y kaniyang ipinasok sa kaniyang bahay, at binigyan ng pagkain ang mga asno: at sila'y naghugas ng kanilang mga paa, at nagkainan at naginuman.
So he brought him into his house, and fed the donkeys. And they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
22 Nang nangatutuwa na ang kanilang mga puso, narito, ang mga lalake sa bayan, na ilang hamak na tao, ay kinubkob ang bahay sa palibot, na hinahampas ang pintuan; at sila'y nagsalita sa may-ari ng bahay, sa matanda, na sinasabi, Ilabas mo ang lalake na pumasok sa iyong bahay upang makilala namin siya.
As they were enjoying themselves, look, the men of the city, some wicked men of the city 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 may have sex with him."
23 At lumabas sa kanila ang lalake, ang may-ari ng bahay, at sinabi sa kanila, Huwag, mga kapatid ko, isinasamo ko sa inyong huwag kayong gumawa ng ganiyang kasamaan; yamang ang lalaking ito'y pumasok sa aking bahay, ay huwag ninyong gawin ang kaululang ito.
The man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said to them, "No, my brothers, please do not act so wickedly; since this man has come into my house. Do not do this disgraceful thing.
24 Narito, nandito ang aking anak na dalaga, at ang kaniyang babae; akin silang ilalabas ngayon, at pangayupapain ninyo sila, at gawin ninyo sa kanila ang magalingin ninyo sa kanila: nguni't sa lalaking ito ay huwag kayong gumawa ng anomang masama.
Look, here is my virgin daughter and his secondary wife. I will bring them out now. Ravish them and do with them what seems good to you; but do not do any such a disgraceful thing to this man."
25 Nguni't hindi siya dininig ng mga lalake: sa gayo'y hinawakan ng lalake ang kaniyang babae at inilabas sa kanila: at sinipingan nila siya, at hinalay buong gabi hanggang sa kinaumagahan; at nang magbukang liwayway, ay pinayaon nila siya.
But the men wouldn't listen to him: so the man laid hold of his secondary wife, and brought her out to them. And they raped her and abused her all night until the morning, and when the day began to dawn they let her go.
26 Nang magkagayo'y dumating ang babae, pagbubukang liwayway, at nabuwal sa pintuan ng bahay ng lalake, na kinaroroonan ng kaniyang panginoon, hanggang sa lumiwanag.
Then at daybreak the woman arrived and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, until daylight.
27 At bumangon ang kaniyang panginoon ng kinaumagahan, at ibinukas ang mga pinto ng bahay, at lumabas na nagpatuloy ng kaniyang lakad: at, narito, ang babae na kaniyang kinakasama ay nakabuwal sa pintuan ng bahay, na ang kaniyang mga kamay ay nasa tayuan.
Her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way; and look, the woman his secondary wife was fallen down at the door of the house, with her hands on the threshold.
28 At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Bumangon ka, at tayo na; nguni't walang sumagot: nang magkagayo'y kaniyang isinakay sa asno; at ang lalake ay bumangon, at napasa kaniyang dako.
And he said to her, "Get up, and let us go." But there was no answer, for she was dead. So he placed her on the donkey, and the man rose up and went to his home.
29 At nang siya'y pumasok sa kaniyang bahay, ay kumuha siya ng isang sundang, at itinaga sa kaniyang babae, at pinagputolputol siya ayon sa kaniyang buto, ng labing dalawang putol; at ipinadala siya sa lahat ng hangganan ng Israel.
When he had come into his house, he took a knife, and took hold of his secondary wife and divided her, limb by limb, into twelve pieces, and sent her throughout all the territory of Israel.
30 At nangyari, na lahat ng nakakita ay nagsabi, Walang ganitong gawang ginawa o nakita man mula sa araw na umahon ang mga anak ni Israel na mula sa lupain ng Egipto hanggang sa araw na ito: kayo'y magdilidili, pumayo, at magsalita.
And it was so, that all who saw it said, "Nothing like this has been done or seen since the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt until this day." And he commanded the men whom he sent, saying, "This is what you will say to all the men of Israel, 'Has anything like this happened since the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt until this day? Consider it, take counsel, and speak.'"
