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.
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 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 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 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. She brought him into her father’s house; and when the father of the young lady 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 lady’s father, kept him there; 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.
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 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 lady’s father said to the man, “Please be pleased to stay all night, and let your heart be merry.”
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 lady’s father said, “Please strengthen your heart and stay until the day declines;” and they both ate.
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 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 toward 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 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 went near Jebus (also called Jerusalem). With him were a couple of saddled donkeys. His concubine also was 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 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 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 enter 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’s draw near to one of these places; and we will lodge in Gibeah, or in 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 went down 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 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 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.
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 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 wayfaring man in the street of the city; and the old man said, “Where are you going? 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 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 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 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.
The old man said, “Peace be to you! Just let me supply all your needs, but don’t sleep in the street.”
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 gave the donkeys fodder. Then 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 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 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 don’t act so wickedly; since this man has come into my house, don’t do this folly.
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.
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 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 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 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 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 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 behold, the woman his concubine had 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.
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 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 cut up his concubine, and divided her, limb by limb, into twelve pieces, and sent her throughout all the borders 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.
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.”
