Judges 20
1 Gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli láti Dani dé Beerṣeba, àti láti ilẹ̀ Gileadi jáde bí ẹnìkan ṣoṣo wọ́n sì péjọ síwájú Olúwa ni Mispa.
Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was gathered together as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, unto the LORD in Mizpeh.
2 Àwọn olórí gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn láti gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli dúró ní ipò wọn ní àpéjọ àwọn ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, ogún ọ̀kẹ́ ọkùnrin ológun ti àwọn àti idà wọn.
And the chief of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen that drew sword.
3 (Àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini gbọ́ wí pé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yòókù ti gòkè lọ sí Mispa.) Nígbà náà ni àwọn ọmọ Israẹli wí pé, “Ẹ sọ fún wa báwo ni iṣẹ́ búburú ṣe ṣẹlẹ̀.”
(Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpeh.) Then said the children of Israel, Tell us, how was this wickedness?
4 Ará Lefi náà, ọkọ obìnrin tí wọ́n pa fèsì pé, “Èmi àti àlè mi wá sí Gibeah ti àwọn ará Benjamini láti sùn di ilẹ̀ mọ́ níbẹ̀.
And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was slain, answered and said, I came into Gibeah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to lodge.
5 Ṣùgbọ́n ní òru àwọn ọkùnrin Gibeah lépa mi wọ́n sì yí ilé náà po pẹ̀lú èrò láti pa mí. Wọ́n fi ipá bá àlè mi lòpọ̀, òun sì kú.
And the men of Gibeah rose against me, and beset the house round about upon me by night, and thought to have slain me: and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead.
6 Mo mú àlè mi náà, mo sì gé e sí ekìrí ekìrí, mo sì fi ekìrí kọ̀ọ̀kan ránṣẹ́ sí agbègbè ìní Israẹli kọ̀ọ̀kan, nítorí pé wọ́n ti ṣe ohun tí ó jẹ́ èèwọ̀ àti ohun ìtìjú yìí ní ilẹ̀ Israẹli.
And I took my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel: for they have committed lewdness and folly in Israel.
7 Nísinsin yìí, gbogbo ẹ̀yin ọmọ Israẹli, ẹ sọ ìmọ̀ràn yín, kí ẹ sì ṣe ìdájọ́ yín.”
Behold, all of you are all children of Israel; give here your advice and counsel.
8 Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà sì dìde bí ẹnìkan pẹ̀lú gbólóhùn kan wí pé, “Kò sí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú wa tí yóò lọ sí àgọ́ rẹ̀. Rárá o, kò sí ẹyọ ẹnìkan tí yóò padà lọ sí ilé rẹ̀.
And all the people arose as one man, saying, We will not any of us go to his tent, neither will we any of us turn into his house.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, ohun tí àwa yóò ṣe sí Gibeah ní yìí. Àwa yóò lọ kọlù ú bí ìbò bá ṣe darí wa.
But now this shall be the thing which we will do to Gibeah; we will go up by lot against it;
10 A yóò mú ọkùnrin mẹ́wàá nínú ọgọ́rùn-ún nínú gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli àti ọgọ́rùn-ún láti inú ẹgbẹ̀rún kan àti ẹgbẹ̀rún kan láti inú ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá láti máa pèsè oúnjẹ fún àwọn ọmọ-ogun.

And we will take ten men of an hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and an hundred of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to fetch victual for the people, that they may do, when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly that they have wrought in Israel.
11 Báyìí ni gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli parapọ̀ ṣọ̀kan bí ọkùnrin kan ṣoṣo wọ́n sì dìde sí ìlú náà.
So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man.
12 Àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli rán àwọn ọkùnrin sí gbogbo ẹ̀yà Benjamini wí pé, “Kí ni ẹ̀rí sí ìwà búburú yìí tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ ní àárín yín?
And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, What wickedness is this that is done among you?
13 Nítorí náà ẹ mú àwọn ẹni ibi ti Gibeah yìí wá fún wa, kí àwa lé pa, kí a sì fọ ìṣe búburú yìí mọ́ kúrò ní Israẹli.” Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini kò fetí sí ti àwọn arákùnrin wọn ọmọ Israẹli.
Now therefore deliver us the men, the children of Belial, which are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel.
14 Àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini sì kó ara wọn jọ láti àwọn ìlú wọn sí Gibeah láti bá àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jà.
But the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities unto Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.
15 Ní ẹsẹ̀kẹsẹ̀ àwọn ará Benjamini kó ẹgbàá mẹ́tàlá àwọn ọmọ-ogun tí ń lọ dájọ́ láti àwọn ìlú wọn, yàtọ̀ sí àwọn ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀rin àṣàyàn ọkùnrin nínú àwọn tí ń gbé Gibeah.
And the children of Benjamin were numbered at that time out of the cities twenty and six thousand men that drew sword, beside the inhabitants of Gibeah, which were numbered seven hundred chosen men.
16 Ní àárín àwọn ọmọ-ogun wọ̀nyí ni ó ti ní àwọn ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀rin àṣàyàn ọkùnrin tí wọ́n ń lo ọwọ́ òsì, tí ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn dára dé bi pé wọ́n lè fi kànnàkànnà ba fọ́nrán òwú ní àìtàsé (wọ́n jẹ́ atamọ́tàsé).
Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lefthanded; every one could sling stones at an hair breadth, and not miss.
17 Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli, yàtọ̀ sí àwọn ará Benjamini, ka ogún ọ̀kẹ́ àwọn tí ń fi idà jagun, gbogbo wọn jẹ́ akọni ní ogun jíjà.
And the men of Israel, beside Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew sword: all these were men of war.
18 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ sí Beteli, wọ́n sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run. Wọ́n wí pé, “Ta ni nínú wa tí yóò kọ́ kojú àwọn ará Benjamini láti bá wọn jà?” Olúwa dáhùn pé, “Juda ni yóò kọ́ lọ.”
And the children of Israel arose, and went up to the house of God, and asked counsel of God, and said, Which of us shall go up first to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the LORD said, Judah shall go up first.
19 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli dìde ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, wọ́n sì dó ti Gibeah (wọ́n tẹ̀gùn sí ẹ̀bá Gibeah).
And the children of Israel rose up in the morning, and encamped against Gibeah.
20 Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli jáde lọ láti bá àwọn ará Benjamini jà wọ́n sì dúró ní ipò ogun sí wọn ní Gibeah.
And the men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel put themselves in array to fight against them at Gibeah.
21 Àwọn ọmọ Benjamini sì jáde láti Gibeah wá wọ́n sì pa àwọn ọmọ ẹgbẹ̀rún méjìlélógún ọkùnrin nínú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní ojú ogun ní ọjọ́ náà.
And the children of Benjamin came forth out of Gibeah, and destroyed down to the ground of the Israelites that day twenty and two thousand men.
22 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli mú ara wọn lọ́kàn le, wọ́n sì tún dúró sí ipò wọn ní ibi tí wọ́n dúró sí ní ọjọ́ àkọ́kọ́.
And the people the men of Israel encouraged themselves, and set their battle again in array in the place where they put themselves in array the first day.
23 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì lọ wọ́n sọkún ní iwájú Olúwa títí oòrùn fi wọ̀, wọ́n sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa. Wọ́n ni, “Ṣé kí àwa tún gòkè lọ kí a sì bá àwọn ará Benjamini arákùnrin wa jà?” Olúwa dáhùn pé, “Lọ bá wọn jà.”
(And the children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until even, and asked counsel of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up again to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother? And the LORD said, Go up against him.)
24 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì tún súnmọ́ tòsí àwọn ará Benjamini ní ọjọ́ kejì.
And the children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin the second day.
25 Ní ọjọ́ yìí nígbà tí ará Benjamini jáde sí wọn láti Gibeah, láti dojúkọ wọn, wọ́n pa ẹgbàá mẹ́sàn ọkùnrin Israẹli, gbogbo wọn jẹ́ jagunjagun tí ń lo idà.
And Benjamin went forth against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men; all these drew the sword.
26 Nígbà náà ni gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli àní gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn, gòkè lọ sí Beteli, níbẹ̀ ni wọ́n jókòó tí wọ́n sì ń sọkún níwájú Olúwa. Wọ́n gbààwẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ náà títí di àṣálẹ́, wọ́n sì rú ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun àti ọrẹ àlàáfíà sí Olúwa.
Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came unto the house of God, and wept, and sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until even, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
27 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa. (Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì àpótí ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run wà níbẹ̀,
And the children of Israel enquired of the LORD, (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
28 Finehasi ọmọ Eleasari ọmọ Aaroni, ní ń ṣe iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ ní iwájú rẹ̀.) wọ́n béèrè pé, “Ṣe àwa tún le lọ sí ogun pẹ̀lú Benjamini arákùnrin wa tàbí kí a má lọ?” Olúwa dáhùn pé, “Ẹ lọ nítorí ní ọ̀la ni èmi yóò fi wọ́n lé e yín lọ́wọ́.”
And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days, ) saying, Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease? And the LORD said, Go up; in order to morrow I will deliver them into your hand.
29 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì yàn àwọn ènìyàn tí ó sá pamọ́ yí Gibeah ká.
And Israel set hidden attackers in wait round about Gibeah.
30 Wọ́n jáde tọ àwọn ọmọ Benjamini lọ ní ọjọ́ kẹta wọ́n sì dúró ní ipò wọn, wọ́n sì dìde ogun sí Gibeah bí wọ́n ti ṣe tẹ́lẹ̀ rí.
And the children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and put themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times.
31 Àwọn ọmọ Benjamini sì jáde láti pàdé wọn, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì tàn wọ́n jáde kúrò ní ìlú náà. Wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní ṣẹ́gun àwọn ọmọ Israẹli bí i ti àtijọ́ dé bi pé wọ́n pa bí ọgbọ̀n ọkùnrin ní pápá àti ní àwọn òpópó náà—àwọn ọ̀nà tí ó lọ sí Beteli àti èkejì sí Gibeah.
And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to strike of the people, and kill, as at other times, in the highways, of which one goes up to the house of God, and the other to Gibeah in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
32 Nígbà tí àwọn Benjamini ń wí pé, “Àwa ti ń ṣẹ́gun wọn bí i ti ìṣáájú,” àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a sá kí a lè fà wọ́n kúrò ní ìlú sí ojú òpópó náà.”
And the children of Benjamin said, They are smitten down before us, as at the first. But the children of Israel said, Let us flee, and draw them from the city unto the highways.
33 Gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli dìde kúrò ní ipò wọn, wọ́n sì tẹ̀dó ogun ní Baali-Tamari, àwọn ọmọ-ogun Israẹli tí wọ́n sá pamọ́ sínú igbó jáde kúrò níbi tí wọ́n wà ní ìwọ̀-oòrùn Gibeah.
And all the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and put themselves in array at Baaltamar: and the hidden attackers in wait of Israel came forth out of their places, even out of the meadows of Gibeah.
34 Nígbà náà ni ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá àwọn àṣàyàn ológun àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gbógun ti Gibeah láti iwájú ogun náà le gidigidi dé bí i pé àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini kò funra pé ìparun wà nítòsí.
And there came against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was sore: but they knew not that evil was near them.
35 Olúwa ṣẹ́gun Benjamini níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ní ọjọ́ náà àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pa ẹgbàá méjìlá ó lé lẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀fà ọkùnrin Benjamini, gbogbo wọn fi idà dìhámọ́ra ogun.
And the LORD stroke Benjamin before Israel: and the children of Israel destroyed of the Benjamites that day twenty and five thousand and an hundred men: all these drew the sword.
36 Àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini sì rí pé wọ́n ti ṣẹ́gun àwọn. Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli fàsẹ́yìn níwájú àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini nítorí pé wọ́n fọkàn tán àwọn tí ó wà ní ibùba ní ẹ̀bá Gibeah.
So the children of Benjamin saw that they were smitten: for the men of Israel gave place to the Benjamites, because they trusted unto the hidden attackers in wait which they had set beside Gibeah.
37 Àwọn ọkùnrin tí wọ́n lúgọ yára jáde wọ́n sì tètè wọ Gibeah, wọ́n fọ́nká wọ́n sì fi idà pa gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà nínú ìlú náà.
And the hidden attackers in wait hasted, and rushed upon Gibeah; and the hidden attackers in wait drew themselves along, and stroke all the city with the edge of the sword.
38 Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli àti àwọn tí o ba ní ibùba sínú igbó ti fún ara wọn ní àmì pé, kí àwọn tí ó ba ní ibùba fi èéfín ṣe ìkùùkuu ńlá láti inú ìlú náà,
Now there was an appointed sign between the men of Israel and the hidden attackers in wait, that they should make a great flame with smoke rise up out of the city.
39 nígbà náà ni àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli yípadà, wọ́n sá gun. Àwọn ọmọ Benjamini sì ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ṣẹ́gun àti ní pípa àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli tí ó to ọgbọ̀n, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Àwa ń ṣẹ́gun wọn bí ìgbà ìjà àkọ́kọ́.”
And when the men of Israel retired in the battle, Benjamin began to strike and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons: for they said, Surely they are smitten down before us, as in the first battle.
40 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ìkùùkuu èéfín bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní rú sókè láti inú ìlú náà wá, àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini yípadà wọ́n sì rí èéfín gbogbo ìlú náà ń gòkè sí ojú ọ̀run.
But when the flame began to arise up out of the city with a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them, and, behold, the flame of the city ascended up to heaven.
41 Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sì yípadà sí wọn, ẹ̀rù gidigidi sì ba àwọn ará Benjamini nítorí pé wọ́n mọ̀ pé àwọn wà nínú ewu.
And when the men of Israel turned again, the men of Benjamin were amazed: for they saw that evil was come upon them.
42 Wọ́n sì sá níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sí apá àṣálẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò le sálà kúrò lọ́wọ́ ogun náà. Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli tí ó jáde láti inú àwọn ìlú wọn wá pa wọ́n run níbẹ̀.
Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel unto the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and them which came out of the cities they destroyed in the midst of them.
43 Wọ́n yí àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini ká, wọ́n lépa wọn, wọ́n sì pa wọ́n run pẹ̀lú ìrọ̀rùn ní ibi ìsinmi wọn ní agbègbè ìlà-oòrùn Gibeah.
Thus they enclosed the Benjamites round about, and chased them, and trode them down with ease opposite to Gibeah toward the sunrising.
44 Ẹgbàá mẹ́sàn àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini ṣubú, gbogbo wọn jẹ́ akọni jagunjagun.
And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valour.
45 Bí wọ́n ṣe síjú padà tí wọ́n sì ń sálọ sí apá ijù lọ sí ọ̀nà àpáta Rimoni ni àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pa ẹgbẹ̀rún márùn-ún ọkùnrin ní àwọn òpópónà. Wọ́n lépa àwọn ẹ̀yà Benjamini títí dé Gidomu, wọ́n sì tún bi ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ọkùnrin ṣubú.
And they turned and fled toward the wilderness unto the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men; and pursued hard after them unto Gidom, and slew two thousand men of them.
46 Ní ọjọ́ náà ẹgbàá méjìlá ó lé ẹgbẹ̀rún jagunjagun Benjamini tí ń fi idà jagun ní ó ṣubú, gbogbo wọn jẹ́ akọni ológun.
So that all which fell that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men that drew the sword; all these were men of valour.
47 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹgbẹ̀ta ọkùnrin yípadà wọ́n sì sá nínú ààlà lọ sí àpáta Rimoni, níbi tí wọ́n wà fún oṣù mẹ́rin.
But six hundred men turned and fled to the wilderness unto the rock Rimmon, and abode in the rock Rimmon four months.
48 Àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sì padà sí àwọn ìlú Benjamini wọn sì fi idà pa gbogbo ohun tí ó wà nínú àwọn ìlú wọn àti àwọn ẹran àti gbogbo ohun tí wọn ba níbẹ̀. Gbogbo ìlú tí wọ́n bá ní ojú ọ̀nà ni wọ́n fi iná sun.
And the men of Israel turned again upon the children of Benjamin, and stroke them with the edge of the sword, as well the men of every city, as the beast, and all that came to hand: also they set on fire all the cities that they came to.
