Judges 19
1 Also in those dayes, when there was no king in Israel, a certaine Leuite dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, and tooke to wife a concubine out of Beth-lehem Iudah,
Alò, li te vin rive nan jou sa yo, pandan pa t gen wa an Israël, ke te gen yon sèten Levit ki te rete nan zòn izole nan peyi ti kolin Ephraïm nan. Li te pran yon mennaj pou kont li, ki soti nan Bethléhem nan Juda.
2 And his concubine played ye whore there, and went away from him vnto her fathers house to Beth-lehem Iudah, and there continued the space of foure moneths.
Men mennaj li a te jwe pwostitiye kont li. Li te kite li pou rive lakay papa l nan Bethléhem nan Juda e li te rete la pandan yon kat mwa.
3 And her husband arose and went after her, to speake friendly vnto her, and to bring her againe: he had also his seruant with him, and a couple of asses: and she brought him vnto her fathers house, and when the yong womans father sawe him, he reioyced of his comming.
Epi mari li te leve swiv li, pou pale dousman avè l pou fè l tounen e te pran avè l sèvitè li a, ak yon pè bourik. Konsa, fi a te mennen li antre lakay papa l. Lè papa l te wè l, li te byen kontan rankontre li.
4 And his father in lawe, the yong womans father reteined him: and he abode with him three dayes: so they did eate and drinke, and lodged there.
Bòpè li a, papa a fi a te fè l fè reta. Li te rete avè l pandan twa jou konsa. La yo te manje, bwè e loje.
5 And when the fourth day came, they arose earely in the morning, and he prepared to depart: then the yong womans father said vnto his sonne in lawe, Comfort thine heart with a morsel of bread, and then go your way.
Alò, nan katriyèm jou a, yo te leve granmmaten e yo te prepare pou sòti. Papa a fi a te di a bofi li: “Fòtifye ou menm avèk yon mòso pen pou, apre, nou kapab ale.”
6 So they sate downe, and did eate and drinke both of them together. And the yong womans father said vnto the man, Be content, I pray thee, and tary all night, and let thine heart be merie.
Konsa, toude te chita manje e bwè ansanm; epi papa a fi a te di nonm nan: “Souple, vin dakò pou pase nwit lan e fè kè ou kontan.”
7 And when the man rose vp to depart, his father in lawe was earnest: therefore he returned, and lodged there.
Alò, nonm nan te leve pou pati, men bòpè li te ankouraje li. Konsa, li te pase nwit lan la ankò.
8 And he arose vp earely the fifth day to depart, and the yong womans father saide, Comfort thine heart, I pray thee: and they taryed vntill after midday, and they both did eate.
Nan senkyèm jou a, li te leve pati bonè nan maten. Men papa a fi a te di: “Souple, soutni nou e tann pou jiska apremidi.” Konsa, yo toude te manje.
9 Afterwarde when the man arose to depart with his concubine and his seruant, his father in lawe, the yong womans father said vnto him, Beholde nowe, the day draweth towarde euen: I pray you, tary all night: beholde, the sunne goeth to rest: lodge here, that thine heart may be merie, and to morowe get you earely vpon your way, and goe to thy tent.
Lè nonm nan te leve ansanm avèk mennaj li ak sèvitè li a, bòpè li te di li: “Men gade, jou a prèt pou rive; souple, pase nwit lan isit la pou kè ou kapab kontan. Epi demen ou kapab leve bonè pou vwayaje ale lakay ou.”
10 But the man would not tarry, but arose and departed, and came ouer against Iebus, (which is Ierusalem) and his two asses laden, and his concubine were with him.
Men nonm nan pa t dakò pase nwit lan. Konsa, li te leve sòti pou te rive nan lye anfas Jebus (sa vle di, Jérusalem). Li te gen avè l de bourik sele; mennaj li a te avè l tou.
11 When they were neere to Iebus, the day was sore spent, and the seruant said vnto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let vs turne into this citie of the Iebusites, and lodge all night there.
Lè yo te toupre Jebus, jou a te prèt fini; epi sèvitè te di a mèt li: “Souple, vini e annou vire akote antre vil ki pou Jebizyen yo pou pase nwit lan ladann.”
12 And his master answered him, We will not turne into the citie of strangers that are not of the children of Israel, but we will goe forth to Gibeah.
Men mèt li a te di li: “Nou p ap vire akote antre nan vil etranje ki pa fè pati a fis Israël yo; men nou va kontinye rive jis Guibea.”
13 And he said vnto his seruant, Come, and let vs drawe neere to one of these places, that wee may lodge in Gibeah or in Ramah.
Li te di a sèvitè li: “Vini e annou pwoche youn nan kote sa yo. Nou va pase nwit lan nan Guibea oswa Rama.”
14 So they went forward vpon their way, and the sunne went downe vpon them neere to Gibeah, which is in Beniamin.
Konsa, yo te kontinye fè wout yo. Solèy la te kouche sou yo toupre Guibea, ki pou Benjamin.
15 Then they turned thither to goe in and lodge in Gibeah: and when he came, he sate him downe in a streete of the citie: for there was no man that tooke them into his house to lodging.
Yo te vire akote la pou antre rete nan Guibea. Lè yo te antre, yo te chita nan mache ki pou vil la, pwiske pèsòn pa t pran yo antre lakay yo pou pase nwit lan.
16 And beholde, there came an old man from his work out of the field at euen, and the man was of mount Ephraim, but dwelt in Gibeah: and the men of the place were the children of Iemini.
Alò, vwala, yon mesye granmoun t ap sòti nan chan travay li nan aswè. Alò, mesye a te sòti nan peyi ti kolin Ephraïm yo, e li t ap viv Guibea, men mesye kote sa yo se te Benjamit yo te ye.
17 And when he had lift vp his eyes, he sawe a wayfairing man in the streetes of the citie: then this olde man sayde, Whither goest thou, and whence camest thou?
Konsa, li te leve zye li pou te wè vwayajè yo nan mitan mache vil la. Epi granmoun nan te di: “Kibò nou prale e kibò nou sòti?”
18 And hee answered him, Wee came from Beth-lehem Iudah, vnto the side of Mout Ephraim: from thence am I: and I went to Beth-lehem Iudah, and go now to the house of the Lord: and no man receiueth mee to house,
Li te di: “N ap pase soti Bethléhem nan Juda pou rive kote ki pi izole nan peyi ti kolin Ephraïm yo, paske se la mwen sòti e mwen te ale Bethléhem nan Juda. Men koulye a, se lakay mwen mwen prale e nanpwen moun k ap ban m plas.
19 Although we haue straw and prouader for our asses, and also bread and wine for me and thine handmayde, and for the boy that is with thy seruant: we lacke nothing.
Men m gen pay ak manje pou bourik nou yo e osi, pen avèk diven pou mwen, sèvant ou, e jennonm ki avèk sèvitè ou yo. Nanpwen anyen ki manke.”
20 And the olde man sayde, Peace bee with thee: as for all that thou lackest, shalt thou finde with me: onely abide not in the streete al night.
Granmoun nan te di: “Lapè avèk nou. Sèlman, kite mwen okipe tout bezwen nou yo; sèlman, pa pase nwit lan sou plas la.”
21 So he brought him into his house, and gaue fodder vnto the asses: and they washed their feete, and did eate and drinke.
Konsa, li te pran li lantre lakay li e li te bay bourik yo manje. Yo te lave pye yo e te manje ak bwè.
22 And as they were making their hearts merie, beholde, the men of the citie, wicked men beset the house round about, and smote at the doore, and spake to this olde man the master of the house saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house that we may knowe him.
Pandan yo t ap fete, veye byen, mesye lavil yo, kèk sanzave, te vin antoure kay la. Yo te kòmanse frape pòt la, epi yo te pale avèk mèt kay la, granmoun nan, e te di: “Mennen fè sòti nonm ki te antre lakay ou a pou nou kapab gen relasyon seksyèl avèk li.”
23 And this man the master of ye house went out vnto the, and said vnto them, Nay my brethre, do not so wickedly, I pray you: seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this villenie.
Alò, nonm nan, mèt kay la, te parèt deyò kote yo, e te di yo: “Non, zanmi mwen yo, souple pa aji mal konsa! Akoz nonm sa a te antre lakay mwen, pa vin fè yon zak bèt parèy konsa!
24 Behold, here is my daughter, a virgine, and his concubine: them wil I bring out nowe, and humble them, and doe with them what seemeth you good: but to this man doe not this villenie.
Men fi vyèj mwen an ak sèvant li an; souple, kite mwen fè yo sòti pou nou kapab kouche avèk yo e fè sa ke nou pito. Men pa fè zak bèt sa a kont nonm sa a!”
25 But the men woulde not hearken to him: therefore ye man tooke his concubine, and brought her out vnto them: and they knewe her and abused her all the night vnto the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her goe.
Men mesye yo te refize koute li. Epi nonm nan te sezi ti mennaj li a, li te mennen li deyò kote yo. Konsa, yo te vyole li e te abize li tout lannwit jis rive nan maten, e yo te lage li lè solèy prèt leve.
26 So the woman came in the dawning of the day, and fell downe at the doore of the mans house where her Lord was, till the light day.
Lè jou te kòmanse vin parèt, fanm nan te vin tonbe devan pòtay kay a mesye a kote mèt la te ye a jiskaske solèy fin klere nèt.
27 And her lorde arose in the morning, and opened the doores of the house, and went out to goe his way, and beholde, the woman his concubine was dead at the doore of the house and her handes lay vpon the thresholde.
Lè mèt li te leve nan maten e te louvri pòt la pou fè wout li, alò vwala, mennaj li an te kouche devan pòtay kay la, avèk men li sou papòt kay la.
28 And hee said vnto her, Vp and let vs goe: but shee answered not. Then he tooke her vp vpon the asse, and the man rose vp, and went vnto his place.
Li te di li: “Leve non, annou ale.” Men pa t gen repons. Alò, li te mete kadav li sou bourik la, epi nonm nan te leve ale lakay li.
29 And whe he was come to his house, he took a knife, and laid hand on his concubine, and deuided her in pieces with her bones into twelue parts, and sent her through all quarters of Israel.
Lè li te antre lakay li, li te pran yon kouto, li te mete men li sou mennaj li a e te koupe li fè douz mòso, manm pa manm e te ranvoye li toupatou nan tout teritwa Israël la.
30 And all that saw it, said, There was no such thing done or seene since the time that the children of Israel came vp from the lande of Egypt vnto this day: consider the matter, consult and giue sentence.
Tout sa ki te wè l te di: “Anyen parèy a sa pa t janm fèt, ni pa t konn wè depi jou ke fis Israël yo te monte sòti an peyi Égypte la jis jodi a. Reflechi sou sa, pran konsèy e pale klè.”
