1There was a certain Levite, who dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, who took a wife of Bethlehem Juda:
1当 以色列 中没有王的时候,有住 以法莲 山地那边的一个 利未 人,娶了一个 犹大 伯利恒 的女子为妾。
2And she left him and returned to her father’s house in Bethlehem, and abode with him four months.
2妾行淫离开丈夫,回 犹大 的 伯利恒 ,到了父家,在那里住了四个月。
3And her husband followed her, willing to be reconciled with her, and to speak kindly to her, and to bring her back with him, having with him a servant and two asses: and she received him, and brought him into her father’s house. And when his father in law had heard this, and had seen him, he met him with joy,
3她丈夫起来,带着一个仆人、两匹驴去见她,用好话劝她回来。女子就引丈夫进入父家。她父见了那人,便欢欢喜喜地迎接。
4And embraced the man. And the son in law tarried in the house of his father in law three days, eating with him and drinking familiarly.
4那人的岳父,就是女子的父亲,将那人留下住了三天。于是二人一同吃喝、住宿。
5But on the fourth day arising early in the morning he desired to depart. But his father in law kept him, and said to him: Taste first a little bread, and strengthen thy stomach, and so thou shalt depart.
5到第四天, 利未 人清早起来要走,女子的父亲对女婿说:「请你吃点饭,加添心力,然后可以行路。」
6And they sat down together, and ate and drank. And the father of the young woman said to his son in law: I beseech thee to stay here today, and let us make merry together.
6于是二人坐下一同吃喝。女子的父亲对那人说:「请你再住一夜,畅快你的心。」
7But he rising up began to be for departing. And nevertheless his father in law earnestly pressed him, and made him stay with him.
7那人起来要走,他岳父强留他,他又住了一宿。
8But when morning was come, the Levite prepared to go on his journey. And his father in law said to him again: I beseech thee to take a little meat, and strengthening thyself, till the day be farther advanced, afterwards thou mayest depart. And they ate together.
8到第五天,他清早起来要走,女子的父亲说:「请你 吃点饭 ,加添心力,等到日头偏西再走。」于是二人一同吃饭。
9And the young man arose to set forward with his wife and servant. And his father in law spoke to him again: Consider that the day is declining, and draweth toward evening: tarry with me today also, and spend the day in mirth, and tomorrow thou shalt depart, that thou mayest go into thy house.
9那人同他的妾和仆人起来要走,他岳父,就是女子的父亲,对他说:「看哪,日头偏西了,请你再住一夜;天快晚了,可以在这里住宿,畅快你的心。明天早早起行回家去。」
10His son in law would not consent to his words: but forthwith went forward and came over against Jebus, which by another name is called Jerusalem, leading with him two asses laden, and his concubine.
10那人不愿再住一夜,就备上那两匹驴,带着妾起身走了,来到 耶布斯 的对面( 耶布斯 就是 耶路撒冷 。)
11And now they were come near Jebus, and the day was far spent: and the servant said to his master: Come, I beseech thee, let us turn into the city of the Jebusites, and lodge there.
11临近 耶布斯 的时候,日头快要落了,仆人对主人说:「我们不如进这 耶布斯 人的城里住宿。」
12His master answered him: I will not go into the town of another nation, who are not of the children of Israel, but I will pass over to Gabaa:
12主人回答说:「我们不可进不是 以色列 人住的外邦城,不如过到 基比亚 去」;
13And when I shall come thither, we will lodge there, or at least in the city of Rama.
13又对仆人说:「我们可以到一个地方,或住在 基比亚 ,或住在 拉玛 。」
14So they passed by Jebus, and went on their journey, and the sun went down upon them when they were by Gabaa, which is in the tribe of Benjamin:
14他们就往前走。将到 便雅悯 的 基比亚 ,日头已经落了;
15And they turned into it, to lodge there. And when they were come in, they sat in the street of the city, for no man would receive them to lodge.
15他们进入 基比亚 要在那里住宿,就坐在城里的街上,因为无人接他们进家住宿。
16And behold they saw an old man, returning out of the field and from his work in the evening, and he also was of mount Ephraim, and dwelt as a stranger in Gabaa; but the men of that country were the children of Jemini.
16晚上,有一个老年人从田间做工回来。他原是 以法莲 山地的人,住在 基比亚 ;那地方的人却是 便雅悯 人。
17And the old man lifting up his eyes, saw the man sitting with his bundles in the street of the city, and said to him: Whence comest thou? and whither goest thou?
17老年人举目看见客人 坐 在城里的街上,就问他说:「你从哪里来?要往哪里去?」
18He answered him: We came out from Bethlehem Juda, and we are going to our home, which is on the side of mount Ephraim, from whence we went to Bethlehem: and now we go to the house of God, and none will receive us under his roof:
18他回答说:「我们从 犹大 的 伯利恒 来,要往 以法莲 山地那边去。我原是那里的人,到过 犹大 的 伯利恒 ,现在我往耶和华的殿去,在这里无人接我进他的家。
19We have straw and hay for provender of the asses, and bread and wine for the use of myself and of thy handmaid, and of the servant that is with me: we want nothing but lodging.
19其实我有粮草可以喂驴,我与我的妾,并我的仆人,有饼有酒,并不缺少什么。」
20And the old man answered him: Peace be with thee: I will furnish all things that are necessary: only I beseech thee, stay not in the street.
20老年人说:「愿你平安!你所需用的我都给你,只是不可在街上过夜。」
21And he brought him into his house, and gave provender to his asses: and after they had washed their feet, he entertained them with a feast.
21于是领他们到家里,喂上驴,他们就洗脚吃喝。
22While they were making merry, and refreshing their bodies with meat and drink, after the labour of the journey, the men of that city, sons of Belial, (that is, without yoke,) came and beset the old man’s house, and began to knock at the door, calling to the master of the house, and saying: Bring forth the man that came into thy house, that we may abuse him.
22他们心里正欢畅的时候,城中的匪徒围住房子,连连叩门,对房主老人说:「你把那进你家的人带出来,我们要与他交合。」
23And the old man went out to them, and said: Do not so, my brethren, do not so wickedly: because this man is come into my lodging, and cease I pray you from this folly.
23那房主出来对他们说:「弟兄们哪,不要这样作恶;这人既然进了我的家,你们就不要行这丑事。
24I have a maiden daughter, and this man hath a concubine, I will bring them out to you, and you may humble them, and satisfy your lust: only, I beseech you, commit not this crime against nature on the man.
24我有个女儿,还是处女,并有这人的妾,我将她们领出来任凭你们玷辱她们,只是向这人不可行这样的丑事。」
25They would not be satisfied with his words; which the man seeing, brought out his concubine to them, and abandoned her to their wickedness: and when they had abused her all the night, they let her go in the morning.
25那些人却不听从他的话。那人就把他的妾拉出去交给他们,他们便与她交合,终夜凌辱她,直到天色快亮才放她去。
26But the woman, at the dawning of the day, came to the door of the house where her lord lodged, and there fell down.
26天快亮的时候,妇人回到她主人住宿的房门前,就仆倒在地,直到天亮。
27And in the morning the man arose, and opened the door that he might end the journey he had begun: and behold his concubine lay before the door with her hands spread on the threshold.
27早晨,她的主人起来开了房门,出去要行路,不料那妇人仆倒在房门前,两手搭在门槛上;
28He thinking she was taking her rest, said to her: Arise, and let us be going. But as she made no answer, perceiving she was dead, he took her up, and laid her upon his ass, and returned to his house.
28就对妇人说:「起来,我们走吧!」妇人却不回答。那人便将她驮在驴上,起身回本处去了。
29And when he was come home he took a sword, and divided the dead body of his wife with her bones into twelve parts, and sent the pieces into all the borders of Israel.
29到了家里,用刀将妾的尸身切成十二块,使人拿着传送 以色列 的四境。
30And when every one had seen this, they all cried out: There was never such a thing done in Israel from the day that our fathers came up out of Egypt, until this day: give sentence, and decree in common what ought to be done.
30凡看见的人都说:「从 以色列 人出 埃及 地,直到今日,这样的事没有行过,也没有见过。现在应当思想,大家商议 当怎样办理 。」
