Judges 19
1 Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì Israẹli kò ní ọba. Ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí ń gbé ibi tí ó sá pamọ́ nínú àwọn agbègbè òkè Efraimu, mú àlè kan láti Bẹtilẹhẹmu ní 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 Ṣùgbọ́n àlè rẹ̀ náà sì ṣe panṣágà sí i, òun fi sílẹ̀, ó sì padà lọ sí ilé baba rẹ̀ ní Bẹtilẹhẹmu ti Juda, ó sì wà ní ibẹ̀ ní ìwọ̀n oṣù mẹ́rin,
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 ọkọ rẹ̀ lọ sí ibẹ̀ láti rọ̀ ọ́ pé kí ó padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ òun. Nígbà tí ó ń lọ ó mú ìránṣẹ́ àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ méjì lọ́wọ́, obìnrin náà mú un wọ inú ilé baba rẹ̀ lọ, nígbà tí baba obìnrin náà rí i ó fi tayọ̀tayọ̀ gbà á.
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 Àna rẹ̀, baba ọmọbìnrin náà rọ̀ ọ́, ó sì borí rẹ̀ láti dá a dúró fún ìgbà díẹ̀, òun sì dúró fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta, ó ń jẹ, ó ń mu, ó sì ń sùn níbẹ̀.
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 Ní ọjọ́ kẹrin, wọ́n dìde ní òwúrọ̀ kùtùkùtù òun sì múra láti padà lọ, ṣùgbọ́n baba ọmọbìnrin náà wí fún àna rẹ̀ pé, “Fi ohun jíjẹ díẹ̀ gbé inú ró nígbà náà kí ìwọ máa lọ.”
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 Àwọn méjèèjì sì jùmọ̀ jókòó láti jọ jẹun àti láti jọ mu. Lẹ́yìn èyí ni baba ọmọbìnrin wí pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ dúró ní alẹ́ yìí kí o sì gbádùn ara rẹ.”
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 Nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà dìde láti máa lọ, baba ìyàwó rẹ̀ rọ̀ ọ́, torí náà ó sùn níbẹ̀ ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà.
The man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he stayed there again.
8 Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ karùn-ún nígbà tí ó dìde láti lọ, baba ọmọbìnrin wí pé, “Fi oúnjẹ gbé ara ró. Dúró de ọ̀sán!” Àwọn méjèèjì sì jùmọ̀ jọ jẹun.
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 Nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà, pẹ̀lú àlè àti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, dìde láti máa lọ, àna rẹ̀, baba ọmọbìnrin náà ní, “Wò ó ilẹ̀ ti ń ṣú lọ, dúró níbí, ọjọ́ ti lọ. Dúró kí o sì gbádùn ara rẹ. Ìwọ lè jí ní àárọ̀ kùtùkùtù ọ̀la kí ìwọ sì máa lọ ilé.”
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 Ṣùgbọ́n nítorí pé òun kò fẹ́ dúró mọ́ níbẹ̀ ní òru náà ọkùnrin náà kúrò ó sì gba ọ̀nà Jebusi: ọ̀nà Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀ méjèèjì tí ó fi dì í ní gàárì àti àlè rẹ̀.
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 Nígbà tí wọ́n súnmọ́ Jebusi tí ilẹ̀ ti fẹ́ ṣú tan, ìránṣẹ́ náà sọ fún ọ̀gá rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a dúró ní ìlú yìí tí í ṣe ti àwọn ará Jebusi kí a sì sùn níbẹ̀.”
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 Ọ̀gá rẹ̀ dá a lóhùn pé, “Rárá o, àwa kì yóò wọ ìlú àwọn àjèjì, àwọn tí olùgbé ibẹ̀ kì í ṣe ọmọ Israẹli, a yóò dé Gibeah.”
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 Ó fi kún un pé, ẹ wá ẹ jẹ́ kí a gbìyànjú kí a dé Gibeah tàbí Rama kí a sùn ní ọ̀kan nínú wọn.
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 Wọ́n sì tẹ̀síwájú nínú ìrìnàjò wọn, oòrùn wọ̀ bí wọ́n ti súnmọ́ Gibeah tí ṣe ti àwọn Benjamini.
So they passed on and went their way; and the sun set on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
15 Wọ́n yípadà wọ́n lọ sí inú ìlú Gibeah láti wọ̀ síbẹ̀ ní òru náà, wọ́n lọ wọ́n sì jókòó níbi gbọ̀ngàn ìlú náà, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí ẹni tí ó gbà wọ́n sínú ilé rẹ̀ láti wọ̀ sí.
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 Ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà ọkùnrin arúgbó kan láti àwọn òkè Efraimu, ṣùgbọ́n tí ń gbé ní Gibeah (ibẹ̀ ni àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini ń gbé) ń ti ibi iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ bọ̀ láti inú oko.
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 Nígbà tí ó wòkè ó rí arìnrìn-àjò náà ní gbọ̀ngàn ìlú náà, ọkùnrin arúgbó yìí bi í léèrè pé, “Níbo ni ò ń lọ? Níbo ni o ti ń bọ̀?”
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 Ọmọ Lefi náà dá a lóhùn pé, “Bẹtilẹhẹmu ti Juda ni àwa ti ń bọ̀, àwa sì ń lọ sí agbègbè tí ó sá pamọ́ ní àwọn òkè Efraimu níbi ti mo ń gbé. Mo ti lọ sí Bẹtilẹhẹmu ti Juda, èmi sì ń lọ sí ilé Olúwa nísinsin yìí. Kò sí ẹni tí ó gbà mí sí ilé rẹ̀.
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 Àwa ní koríko àti oúnjẹ tó tó fún àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wa àti oúnjẹ àti wáìnì fún àwa ìránṣẹ́ rẹ—èmi, ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ àti ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú wa. A ò ṣe aláìní ohun kankan.”
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 Ọkùnrin arúgbó náà sì wí pé. “Àlàáfíà fún ọ, bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, èmi yóò pèsè gbogbo ohun tí o nílò, kìkì pé kí ìwọ má ṣe sun ní ìgboro.”
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 Òun sì mú wa sí ilé rẹ̀, ó ń bọ́ àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti wẹ ẹsẹ̀ wọn, àwọn àlejò náà jẹ, wọ́n mu.
So he brought him into his house, and fed the donkeys. And they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
22 Ǹjẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ń ṣe àríyá, kíyèsi i, àwọn ọkùnrin ìlú náà, àwọn ọmọ Beliali kan, yí ilé náà ká, wọ́n sì ń lu ìlẹ̀kùn; wọ́n sì sọ fún baálé ilé náà ọkùnrin arúgbó náà pé, “Mú ọkùnrin tí ó wọ̀ sínú ilé rẹ wá, kí àwa lè mọ̀ ọ́n.”
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 Ọkùnrin, baálé ilé náà sì jáde tọ̀ wọ́n lọ, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́ ẹ̀yin arákùnrin mi, èmi bẹ̀ yín, ẹ má ṣe hùwà búburú; nítorí tí ọkùnrin yìí ti wọ ilé mi, ẹ má ṣe hùwà òmùgọ̀ yìí.
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 Kíyèsi i, ọmọbìnrin mi ni èyí, wúńdíá, àti àlè rẹ̀; àwọn ni èmi ó mú jáde wá nísinsin yìí, kí ẹ̀yin tẹ̀ wọ́n lógo, kí ẹ̀yin ṣe sí wọn bí ó ti tọ́ lójú yín: ṣùgbọ́n ọkùnrin yìí ni kí ẹ̀yin má ṣe hùwà òmùgọ̀ yìí sí.”
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 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin náà kò fetí sí tirẹ̀. Nítorí náà ọkùnrin náà mú àlè rẹ̀ ó sì tari rẹ̀ jáde sí wọn, wọ́n sì bá a fi ipá lòpọ̀, wọ́n sì fi gbogbo òru náà bá a lòpọ̀, nígbà tí ó di àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́ wọ́n jọ̀wọ́ rẹ̀ lọ́.
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 Nígbà tí ojúmọ́ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí là obìnrin náà padà lọ sí ilé tí ọ̀gá rẹ̀ wà, ó ṣubú lulẹ̀ lọ́nà, ó sì wà níbẹ̀ títí ó fi di òwúrọ̀.
Then at daybreak the woman arrived and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, until daylight.
27 Nígbà tí ọ̀gá rẹ̀ jí tí ó sì dìde ní òwúrọ̀ tí ó sì ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn ilé náà, tí ó sì bọ́ sí òde láti tẹ̀síwájú nínú ìrìnàjò rẹ̀, kíyèsi i àlè rẹ̀ wà ní ṣíṣubú ní iwájú ilé, tí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì di òpó ẹnu-ọ̀nà ibẹ̀ mú,
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 òun sì wí fún obìnrin náà pé, “Dìde jẹ́ kí a máa bá ọ̀nà wa lọ.” Ṣùgbọ́n òun kò dá a lóhùn. Nígbà náà ni ọkùnrin náà gbé e lé orí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì kọjá lọ sí ilé e rẹ̀.
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 Nígbà tí ó dé ilé, ó mú ọ̀bẹ ó sì gé àlè rẹ̀ ní oríkeríke sí ọ̀nà méjìlá, ó sì fi wọ́n ránṣẹ́ sí gbogbo agbègbè Israẹli.
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 Gbogbo ẹni tí ó rí i sì wí pé, “A kò ti rí i, bẹ́ẹ̀ a kò tí ì ṣe irú nǹkan yìí rí, kì í ṣe láti ọjọ́ tí Israẹli ti jáde tí Ejibiti wá títí di òní olónìí. Ẹ rò ó wò, ẹ gbìmọ̀ràn, kí ẹ sọ fún wa ohun tí a yóò ṣe!”
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.'"
