1 Stalo se také toho času, když krále nebylo v Izraeli, že muž nějaký Levíta, jsa pohostinu při straně hory Efraimské, pojal sobě ženu ženinu z Betléma Judova.
And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that a certain Levite, sojourning on the further side of mount Ephraim, took him a concubine out of Bethlehem-Judah.
2 Kterážto ženina smilnila u něho. I odešla od něho do domu otce svého do Betléma Judova, a byla tam plné čtyři měsíce.
And his concubine played the whore against him, and went away from him to her father's house to Bethlehem-Judah, and was there some time, — four months.
3 Vstav pak muž její, šel za ní, aby namluvě ji, zase ji přivedl, maje s sebou mládence svého a dva osly. Tedy ona uvedla jej do domu otce svého. Kteréhož když uzřel otec té děvky, zradoval se z příchodu jeho.
And her husband rose up and went after her, to speak kindly to her, to bring her again; and his servant was with him, and a couple of asses. And she brought him into her father's house; and when the father of the damsel saw him he rejoiced to meet him.
4 I zdržel jej tchán jeho, otec té děvky, tak že pozůstal u něho za tři dni. Tu také jídali i píjeli i nocovali.
And his father-in-law, the damsel's father, retained him, and he abode with him three days; and they ate and drank, and lodged there.
5 Dne pak čtvrtého, když tím raněji vstali, vstal i on, aby odšel. Tedy řekl otec té děvky k zeti svému: Posilni se kouskem chleba, a potom půjdete.
And it came to pass on the fourth day, that they arose early in the morning, and he rose up to depart; and the damsel's father said to his son-in-law, Refresh thy heart with a morsel of bread, and afterwards ye may go your way.
6 Sedli tedy a pojedli oba spolu, a napili se. Potom řekl otec děvky k muži: Posediž medle, nýbrž pobuď přes noc, a buď mysli veselé.
And they sat down, and ate and drank, both of them together. And the damsel's father said to the man, Be content, I pray thee, and pass the night, and let thy heart be glad.
7 Když pak vstal ten muž, chtěje předce jíti, mocí jej zdržel test jeho. A tak se vrátil a zůstal tu přes noc.
And the man rose up to depart, but his father-in-law urged him, and he lodged there again.
8 Potom dne pátého vstal tím raněji, aby se bral. I řekl otec té děvky: Posilň se, prosím. I prodlili, až se den nachýlil, nebo jedli oba.
And he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; but the damsel's father said, Refresh thy heart, I pray thee. And they lingered until the afternoon, and they did eat both of them.
9 Tedy vstal muž ten, aby šel, on i ženina jeho i mládenec jeho. I řekl mu tchán jeho, otec děvky: Aj, již se den nachýlil k večerou, medle zůstaňte přes noc; aj, dokonává se den, pobuď přes noc zde, a buď mysli veselé, a zítra tím raněji vypravíte se na cestu svou, a půjdeš k příbytku svému.
And the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant; and his father-in-law, the damsel's father, said to him, Behold now, the day draws toward evening — I pray you stay all night; behold, the day is declining, lodge here, and let thy heart be merry; and to-morrow get you early on your way, that thou mayest go to thy tent.
10 On pak nechtěl zůstati přes noc, ale vstav, odšel, a přišel proti Jebus, jenž jest Jeruzalém, a s ním dva oslové s břemeny i ženina jeho.
But the man would not tarry the night; and he rose up and departed, and came opposite to Jebus, that is, Jerusalem; and there were with him two asses saddled, and his concubine was with him.
11 Když pak byli blízko Jebus, a den se velmi nachýlil, řekl mládenec pánu svému: Poď, prosím, obraťme se do města toho Jebuzejského, abychom v něm přenocovali.
They were near Jebus, and the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.
12 Jemuž odpověděl pán jeho: Neobrátíme se do města cizozemců, kteréž není synů Izraelských, ale půjdeme až do Gabaa.
But his master said to him, We will not turn aside into the city of a stranger, which is not of the children of Israel, but we will pass on to Gibeah.
13 Řekl ještě mládenci svému: Poď, abychom přišli k některému z těch míst, a zůstali přes noc v Gabaa aneb v Ráma.
And he said to his servant, Come and let us draw near to one of these places, and lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah.
14 Pomíjejíce tedy, odešli, a zapadlo jim slunce blízko Gabaa, kteréž jest Beniaminských.
And they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down upon them [when they were] by Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
15 I obrátili se tam, aby vejdouce, zůstali přes noc v Gabaa. A když tam všel, posadil se na ulici města, proto že nebyl, kdo by je přijal do domu a dal jim nocleh.
And they turned aside thither, to go in, to lodge in Gibeah. And he went in, and sat down in the open place of the city; and there was no one that received him into his house to pass the night.
16 A aj, muž starý vracoval se od práce své s pole u večer, kterýž také byl s hory Efraimovy, a bydlil pohostinu v Gabaa; ale lidé místa toho byli synové Jemini.
And behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even; and the man was of mount Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjaminites.
17 A když pozdvihl očí svých, uzřel muže toho pocestného na ulici města. I řekl jemu ten stařec: Kam se béřeš, a odkud jdeš?
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the open place of the city; and the old man said, Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou?
18 Jemuž odpověděl: Jdeme z Betléma Judova až k stranám hory Efraimovy, odkudž jsem; nebo jsem byl odšel do Betléma Judova. Jduť pak do domu Hospodinova, a není žádného, kdo by mne přijal do domu;
And he said to him, We are travelling from Bethlehem-Judah towards the further side of mount Ephraim; from thence am I; and I went to Bethlehem-Judah, and I have to do with the house of Jehovah; and there is no man that receives me into his house.
19 Ješto mám i slámu a obrok pro osly své, tolikéž i chléb, ano i víno pro sebe a děvku tvou, a mládence, kterýž jest s služebníkem tvým, tak že v ničemž nemáme nedostatku.
And we have both straw and provender for our asses; and I have bread and wine also for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man with thy servants: there is no lack of anything.
20 I řekl muž ten starý: Měj ty pokoj. Čehoť se koli nedostává, nechť já to opatřím, ty toliko na ulici nezůstávej přes noc.
Then the old man said, Peace be with thee; only let all thy wants lie on me; but lodge not in the street.
21 Tedy uvedl jej do domu svého, a obrok dal oslům; potom umyvše nohy své, jedli a pili.
And he brought him into his house, and gave the asses provender; and they washed their feet, and ate and drank.
22 A když očerstvili srdce své, aj, muži města toho, muži nešlechetní, obklíčivše dům, tloukli na dvéře a mluvili tomu muži starci, hospodáři domu, řkouce: Vyveď muže toho, kterýž všel do domu tvého, abychom ho poznali.
They were making their hearts merry, when behold, the men of the city, sons of Belial, surrounded the house, beating at the door; and they spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thy house, that we may know him.
23 K nimžto vyšed muž ten, hospodář domu, řekl jim: Nikoli, bratří moji, nečiňte, prosím, zlého, poněvadž všel ten muž do domu mého, neprovoďte nešlechetnosti té.
And the man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said to them, No, my brethren, I pray you, do not wickedly; seeing that this man is come into my house, do not this villany.
24 Aj, dceru svou, kteráž pannou jest, a ženinu jeho, ty hned vyvedu, i ponížíte jich, aneb učiníte jim, což se vám za dobré vidí; jen muži tomu nečiňte věci té hanebné.
Behold, my daughter, who is a virgin, and his concubine; let me bring them out, and humble ye them, and do to them as is good in your sight; but to this man do not so vile a thing.
25 Ale nechtěli ho uposlechnouti muži ti. Pojav tedy muž ten ženinu svou, vyvedl ji k nim ven, i poznali ji, a zle jí požívali přes celou noc až do jitra; potom pustili ji, když počínalo zasvitávati.
But the men would not hearken to him; and the man took his concubine, and brought her forth to them; and they knew her, and abused her all the night until the morning; and let her go when the morning-dawn arose.
26 V svitání pak přišla žena ta, a padši, ležela u dveří domu toho muže, kdež byl pán její, až se rozednilo.
And the woman came at the dawning of the day, and fell down at the entrance of the man's house where her lord was, till it was light.
27 Když pak vstal pán její ráno, otevřev dvéře domu, vycházel, aby se bral dále cestou svou. A aj, žena ta, ženina jeho, ležela u dveří domu, a ruce její byly na prahu.
And her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the door of the house, and went out to go his way, and behold, there lay the woman his concubine at the entrance of the house, and her hands were upon the threshold.
28 Jížto řekl: Vstaň, a poďme. A nic neodpověděla. Vzav tedy ji na osla, a vstav muž ten, odšel k místu svému.
And he said to her, Up, and let us go; but no one answered. And he took her upon the ass; and the man rose up, and went to his place.
29 Když pak přišel do domu svého, vzal meč, a pochytiv ženinu svou, rozsekal ji s kostmi jejími na dvanácte kusů, a rozeslal ji po všech končinách Izraelských.
And when he was come into his house, he took the knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, according to her bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her into all the borders of Israel.
30 A bylo, že kdožkoli uzřel, pravil: Nikdy se nestalo ani vidíno bylo co podobného od toho času, jakž vyšli synové Izraelští z země Egyptské, až do tohoto dne. Posuďte toho pilně, poraďte se a promluvte o to.
And it came to pass that every one that saw it said, There was no such deed done nor seen from the day that the children of Israel came out of Egypt to this day. Think it over, advise, and speak.
