1Now 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.
1I A manawa, aohe alii ma ka Iseraela, a e noho ana kekahi Levi ma kekahi aoao o ka mauna o Eperaima, lawe ia i haiawahine nana, noloko mai o Betelehemaiuda.
2But 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,
2Moe kolohe ku e mai la kana haiawahine ia ia, a hele aku, mai ona aku la, a i ka hale o kona makuakane, ma Betelehemaiuda, a malaila no ia i na malama eha.
3her 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.
3Ku ae la kana kane a hahai aku la ia ia, e olelo lokomaikai aku ia ia, a e hoihoi mai ia ia. Me ia pu no kana kauwa, a me na hoki elua. Hookomo aku la oia ia ia i ka hale o kona makuakane. A ike mai la ka makuakane o ua wahine la ia ia, olioli iho la oia, i ka halawai ana me ia.
4His father-in-law, the girl’s father, persuaded him to stay, so he remained with him three days, eating, drinking, and lodging there.
4Kaohi ae la kona makuahonowaikane ia ia, o ka makuakane hoi o ua wahine la; a noho pu iho la oia me ia, i na la ekolu; a ai uo lakou, a inu, a moe iho la malaila.
5On 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.”
5A hiki i ka ha o ka la, i ko lakou ala ana i kakahiaka nui, ku mai la ia e hele. I mai la ka makuakane o ka wahine i kana hunonakane, E hooluolu i kou naau me kahi berena iki, a mahope iho, e hele aku olua.
6So 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.”
6Noho no laua, ai iho la, a inu pu hoi laua; no ka mea, ua olelo mai ka makuakane o ua wahine la i kela kanaka, E lealea mai oe i ka noho i keia po, a e hooluolu i kou naau.
7The man got up to depart, but his father-in-law persuaded him, so he stayed there that night.
7A i ke ala ana o ke kanaka e hele, koi mai la kona makuahonowaikane ia ia; nolaila, noho iho la ia ia po.
8On 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.
8I ka lima o ka la, ala ae la ia i kakahiaka nui, e hele. I mai la ka makuakane o ka wahine, E hooluolu paha oe i kou naau. Kakali iho la laua a auwi ae ka la, a ai iho la laua.
9When 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.”
9A i ke ku ana o ke kanaka e hele, oia a me kana wahine, a me kana kauwa, alaila, olelo mai kona makuahonowaikane ia ia, o ka makuakane hoi o ua wahine la, Aia hoi, ua auwi ae ka la, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e noho hou i keia po, kokoke po ka la, ea, e moe maanei i lealea kou naau; a apopo e hele oe i kakahiaka nui, a hoi aku i kou halelewa.
10But 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.
10Aole i ae mai ua kanaka la e moe ia po, aka, ku ae la ia a hele aku la, a hiki ma ke ala o Iebusa, oia hoi o Ierusalema; aia no me ia pu na hoki elua, i paa i na noho lio, a o kana wahine kekahi me ia.
11When 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.”
11A kokoke lakou i Iebusa, ua auwi loa ka la, i ae la ke kauwa i kona haku, E kipa ae kakou i keia kulanakauhale o ko Iebusa, a moe ilaila.
12But his master replied, “We will not turn aside to the city of foreigners, where there are no Israelites. We will go on to Gibeah.”
12I mai la kona haku ia ia, Aole kakou e kipa ae ilaila, i ke kulanakauhale o kanaka e, aole no na mamo a Iseraela; e hele aku kakou, a Gibea.
13He continued, “Come, let us try to reach one of these towns to spend the night in Gibeah or Ramah.”
13I mai la ia i kana kauwa, Ea, e hele aku kakou e moe i ka po ma Gibea, a i Rama paha.
14So they continued on their journey, and the sun set as they neared Gibeah in Benjamin.
14Hele aku la lakou i ko lakou wahi i hele ai; a ua po ka la ia lakou ma Gibea no Beniamina.
15They 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.
15Kipa ae la lakou e komo ilaila, e moe ai ma Gibea; a hiki aku la ia, noho iho la ma ke alanui o ke kulanakauhale; no ka mea, aohe kanaka nana lakou i hookipa i kona hale e moe ai.
16That 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.
16Aia hoi i ke ahiahi, hele mai kekahi kanaka elemakule, mai kana hana, mai ke kula mai, he kanaka no ka mauna o Eperaima, a noho iho la ma Gibea. Aka, no Beniamina na kanaka o ia wahi.
17When 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?”
17Alawa ae la kona mau maka iluna, ike iho la i ke kanaka, he malihini ma ke alanui o ke kulanakauhale. I ae la ua kanaka elemakule nei, E hele ana oe ihea? a mai hea mai oe i hele mai ai?
18The 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,
18I mai la kela ia ia, E hele ana makou mai Betelehemaiuda a i na mokuna o ka mauna o Eperaima, nolaila hoi au, a hele aku au i Betelehemaiuda; a ke hoi aku nei au i ka hale o Iehova, aole hoi kanaka nana wau i hookipa ae i ka hale.
19even 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.”
19He mauu no, a me ka ai na na hoki a makou, a he berena no a me ka waina na'u, a na kau kauwawahine, a na ke kanaka hou o kau mau kauwa nei; aohe mea e hemahema ai.
20“Peace to you,” said the old man. “Let me supply everything you need. Only do not spend the night in the square.”
20I ae la ke kanaka elemakule, Aloha oe, aka, maluna o'u kou nele a pau; mai moe hoi ma ke alanui.
21So he brought him to his house and fed his donkeys. And they washed their feet and ate and drank.
21Hookomo iho la oia ia ia i kona hale, hanai iho la i na hoki; a holoi no hoi lakou i ko lakou wawae, ai iho la, a inu hoi.
22While 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!”
22A i ko lakou hoolealea ana i ko lakou naau, aia hoi na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale, he poe kanaka hewa, hoopuni mai la lakou i ka hale, a kikeke i ka puka, olelo mai i ka mea hale, i ua kanaka elemakule nei, i mai la, E lawe mai iwaho nei i ke kanaka i hele mai i kou hale, i ike makou ia ia.
23The 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.
23A o ke kanaka, ka haku o ka hale, hele aku la ia iwaho io lakou la, i aku la ia lakou, Ua oki, e na hoahanau, mai hana hewa oukou pela. Ua hele mai keia kanaka i ko'u hale, mai hana hoi oukou i keia mea lapuwale.
24Look, 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.”
24Eia hoi ka'u kaikamahine, he puupaa, a me kana wahine no hoi, o laua ka'u e lawe mai iwaho nei, e hoohaahaa oukou ia laua, a e hana hoi ia laua i ka mea i pono i ko oukou mau maka; aka, mai hana ia mea lapuwale i keia kanaka.
25But 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.
25Aole hoolohe ia poe kanaka ia ia, Nolaila, lalau iho la ke kanaka i kana haiawahine, a lawe ia ia iwaho io lakou la, a ike mai la lakou ia ia, a hana ino lakou ia ia ia po a pau, a kakahiaka; a i ke ao ana ae, kuu mai la ia ia.
26Early 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.
26I ka puka ana o ka malamalama, hele mai ua wahine la, a hina iho la ma ka puka o ka hale o ua kanaka la, ma kahi a kona haku, a malamalama ae la.
27In 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.
27Ala mai la kona haku i kakahiaka, a wehe ae la i ka puka o ka hale, a puka aku e hele ma kona ala; aia hoi, ua hina ka wahine ana ma ka puka o ka hale, aia hoi kona mau lima iluna o ka paepae.
28“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.
28I aku la keia ia ia, E ala mai, e hele kaua. Aohe mea pane mai, Alaila, hapai ae la ua kanaka la ia ia, a kau iho la iluna o ka hoki Ku ae la ke kanaka a hoi aku la i kona wahi.
29When 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.
29A hiki aku la ia i kona hale, lawe ae la ia i ka pahi, a lalau aku la i kana haiawahine, a okioki iho la ia ia, a me kona mau iwi, i umikumamalua apana, a hoouna aku la ia mea, i na mokuna a pau o ka Iseraela.
30And 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!”
30Eia hoi, o ka poe a pau i ike ia mea, i ae la lakou, Aohe mea i hanaia e like me neia, aole hoi i ikeia, mai ka la i hele mai ai na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, a hiki mai i neia la. E noonoo oukou ia mea, a e kukakuka iho, a e olelo mai.
