1In len ingo, ke soenna oasr tokosra lun mwet Israel, oasr sie mwet Levi su muta infulan eol in acn Ephraim. El eis sie mutan fusr Bethlehem in acn Judah tuh elan mutan kulansap se kial.
1There was a certain Levite, who dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, who took a wife of Bethlehem Juda:
2Tusruktu tok mutan sac el kosro nu saya, pwanang el folokla nu in lohm sin papa tumal ah in acn Bethlehem, ac muta we malem akosr.
2And she left him and returned to her father’s house in Bethlehem, and abode with him four months.
3Na mukul sac nunkauk in ukwalla ac srike in folokunulla nu yorol. Ke ma inge el us mukul kulansap se lal ac donkey lukwa welul. Ke mutan fusr sac liyalak el pwanulak nu in lohm sin papa tumal, na ke papa sac liyal el arulana engan in paingul.
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,
4Papa sac el kwafe tuh mukul Levi sac in mutana, na el muta len tolu we, mongo, nim ac motul.
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.
5Ke lututang se akakosr, eltal toang na ngutalik ac akola in som. Na papa tumun mutan sac fahk nu sin mwet Levi sac, “Mongoi meet, kom fah som.”
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.
6Na mukul luo ah tukeni muta mongo ac nim. Ac papa tumun mutan sac fahk, “Sifilpa motulla lohm uh ofong tuh kom in mongla wo.”
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.
7Mwet Levi sac el tuyak in som, tuh papa sac el sifil kwafe elan muta, na el tari na motulla we ke fong sac.
7But he rising up began to be for departing. And nevertheless his father in law earnestly pressed him, and made him stay with him.
8Toang na ke len se aklimekosr, el sifilpa mukui, na papa tumun mutan sac fahk, “Mongoiwin. Soano nu ke tafun len tok.” Ouinge mukul luo ah sifil tukeni mongoi.
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.
9Ke mukul sac ac mutan kulansap se kial, ac mwet kulansap se pac lal, eltal sifil mukuiyak in som, na papa sac el fahk, “Liye, akuranna ekela. Wona kom in tari motulla pac ofong. Ac lohsrani pa inge. Mutawin pwar inge. Lutu kom fah toang na tukakek ac som nu yen sum an.”
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.
10Tuh mukul sac tia lungse sifilpa motulla, na el ac mutan kulansap kial, wi mukul kulansap sac ac donkey lukwa ma oasr mwe muta fac, elos tuyak som.
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.
11Tafun len tok elos sun acn Jebus (Jerusalem). Na mukul kulansap sac fahk nu sin mwet Levi sac, “Efu kut tia kuhfwak motulla in siti se inge?”
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.
12Tusruktu mwet kacto lal ah fahk, “Kut ac tia muta ke kutena siti ma mwet we tia mwet Israel, a kut ac fahsrna in sun acn Gibeah.”
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:
13Na el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, “Fahsru, kut ac srike in sun sie sin siti inge, Gibeah ku Ramah, ac motulla we.”
13And when I shall come thither, we will lodge there, or at least in the city of Rama.
14Ouinge elos fahsr alukela acn Jebus. Elos sun acn Gibeah in acn lun sruf lal Benjamin ke ekela ah.
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:
15Elos kuhfla liki inkanek ah elos in som ac muta we ke fong sac. Elos utyak nu in siti sac ac muta ke acn in toeni lun mwet uh, tusruktu wanginna mwet solalos nu in lohm selos ah.
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.
16Ke elos srakna muta insac, oasr sie mwet matu foloko liki orekma lal in ima lal. Mwet se inge el mwet fineol in acn Ephraim, tusruk el tuku ac oakwuki in acn Gibeah. Inkaiyen mwet in acn se inge ma in sruf lal Benjamin.
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.
17Ke mwet matu sac akilen lah elos mwet fahsr nu in acn sac, el siyuk selos, “Kowos tuku ya me, ac kowos ac som nu ya?”
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?
18Na mwet Levi sac fahk, “Kut muta Bethlehem in acn Judah, ac inge kut fahsr in folokla nu acn sesr, su oan fineol in acn Ephraim. Tuh pa wangin mwet lohma nu sesr.
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:
19Kut utuk mwe mongo ac mah pao nun kosro natusr, oayapa bread ac wain fal nu sik mutan kulansap kiuk ac mukul kulansap luk. Oasr yorosr ma nukewa kut enenu.”
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.
20Na mwet matu sac fahk, “Kowos ku in mongla in lohm sik ah! Nga ku in karingin kowos; ac kowos tia enenu in motul likinum uh ke nien toeni lun siti uh.”
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.
21Ouinge el pwanulosla nu lohm sel, ac el kiteya kosro natulos. Elos ohlla nialos ac mongo yorol.
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.
22Ke elos srakna muta aengani yorol, na un mukul koluk se in siti sac elos tuku raunela lohm sac, ac puok srungul in lohm ah. Elos fahk nu sin mukul matu se ma se lohm sac, “Sap mukul se ma wi kom utyak nu lohm an in ilme! Kut lungse orek ma koluk nu sel!”
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.
23Tusruktu mwet matu sac el illa nu yorolos ac fahk nu selos, “Mwet lili luk, mo! Nunak munas, nimet kowos nunku in oru kain ouiya koluk ingan! Mwet se inge el mutwata yuruk — nga pa solal nu in lohm sik uh.
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.
24Liye, tulik mutan virgin se nutik pa inge, oayapa mutan kulansap se kien mukul sac pa inge. Nga ac usaltalu, ac komtal ku in oru ma na komtal lungse oru nu seltal, tusruk nimet oru kain ouiya koluk ingan nu sin mukul se inge!”
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.
25El ne fahk ouinge, tuh mukul ekasr ah tia lungse lohngol. Ouinge mwet Levi sac sruokya mutan kulansap se kial ah, ac sinukunulla nu likinuma nu yoroltal. Elos sruinkuilya ac akkolukyal fong nufon sac nwe ke lenelik.
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.
26Toang na ke lutu sac, mutan sac tuku nu lohm sin mwet matu sac, yen mukul tumal ah muta we ah, na el topla ke mutunoa. El oan insac nwe ke lenelik.
26But the woman, at the dawning of the day, came to the door of the house where her lord lodged, and there fell down.
27Ke mukul tumal ah tukakek ke lutu sac, el ikasla srungul ah elan som inkanek lal ah, na el liyauk tuh na mutan kulansap kial ah topla oan insac ac paol saplakang nu ke srungul in lohm sac.
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.
28Na mukul sac fahk, “Tukakek, kut som.” Tuh el tiana topkol. Na mukul sac sraklalak ac fililya fin donkey natul ah, ac folokla nu in acn sel ah.
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.
29Ke el sun acn we el utyak nu in lohm ah, ac eis mitmit se. Na el us monin mutan kulansap se kial, ac sipikya nu ke ip singoul luo, ac supwalik kais sie ip nu sin kais sie sruf lun mwet Israel.
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.
30Mwet nukewa su liye ma sac elos fahk, “Kut soenna lohng ke kain ouiya se inge oemeet me! Wangin kain lumah inge nu orek oe ke mwet Israel elos illa liki acn Egypt! Enenu na in oasr ma kut oru kac, tuh mea kut ac oru uh?”
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.
