1 A nd 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.

Oo waagaas markii aanay reer binu Israa'iil boqor lahayn, waxaa jiray nin reer Laawi ah oo degganaa dhanka shishe oo dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim, oo kaasuna addoon buu ka guursaday Beytlaxam Yahuudah.

2 A nd 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.

Markaasay naagtiisii addoonta ahayd ka dhillowday, oo intay isagii ka tagtay ayay aadday gurigii aabbeheed oo ku yiil Beytlaxam Yahuudah, oo halkaasay joogtay intii afar bilood ah.

3 A nd 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.

Markaasuu ninkeedii kacay oo iyadii doonay, inuu si raxmad leh ula hadlo oo soo celiyo; oo wuxuu u tegey iyadii, isagoo wata midiidinkiisii iyo laba dameer. Markaasay isagii soo gelisay gurigii aabbeheed; oo gabadha aabbeheedna markuu isagii arkay ayuu ku farxay inuu la kulmo.

4 A nd 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.

Markaasaa soddoggiis oo gabadha aabbeheed ahaa ayaa raajiyey isagii, oo saddex maalmood ayuu la joogay; markaasay wax cuneen oo cabbeen oo halkaasay ku hoydeen.

5 A nd 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.

Oo maalintii afraad aroor hore ayay tooseen, oo wuxuuna u kacay inuu tago. Markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed wuxuu ku yidhi wiilkii uu soddogga u ahaa, Bal nafta ugu raaxee wuxoogaa cunto ah, dabadeedna waad tegaysaaye.

6 A nd 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.

Sidaas daraaddeed way fadhiisteen, oo labadoodiiba wax bay wada cuneen oo cabbeen, markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed wuxuu ninkii ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, raalli ahow, caawa oo dhanna iska joog, oo qalbigaaguna ha faraxsanaado.

7 A nd the man rose up to depart, but his father-in-law urged him, and he lodged there again.

Markaasuu ninkii u kacay inuu tago; laakiinse soddoggiis baa ku sii adkeeyey, oo halkaasuu ku hoyday haddana.

8 A nd 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.

Oo haddana maalintii shanaad ayuu aroor hore u kacay inuu tago; markaasaa gabadha aabbeheed ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye iska raaxayso, oo iska joog ilaa gelinka dambe, oo labadoodiiba wax bay wada cuneen.

9 A nd 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.

Oo markii ninkii u kacay inuu tago, isagii iyo naagtiisii addoonta ahayd, iyo midiidinkiisiiba, ayaa soddoggiis oo ahaa gabadha aabbeheed ku yidhi, Bal eeg haatan qorraxdu waa sii dhacaysaaye, haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, bal caawa oo dhanna iska joog; bal eeg haatan waa gabbaldhac, de halkan isaga hoyo, in qalbigaagu iska faraxsanaado; oo haddana berri aroorta hore iska tag oo gurigaagii aad.

10 B ut 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.

Laakiinse ninkii ma doonaynin inuu habeenkaas joogo, wuuse kacay oo tegey, oo wuxuu yimid meel ku toosan Yebuus, (taas oo ah Yeruusaalem); oo wuxuu watay laba dameer oo kooraysan, oo naagtiisii addoonta ahaydna way la socotay.

11 T hey 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.

Oo markay Yebuus ku soo dhowaadeenna maalintii horay u badatay; markaasaa midiidinkii wuxuu sayidkiisii ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, kaalay oo aynu ku leexanno magaaladan reer Yebuus oo aynu u hoyanno.

12 B ut 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.

Kolkaasaa sayidkiisii ku yidhi, Dad shisheeye ah oo aan reer binu Israa'iil ahayn magaaladiis ku leexan mayno; laakiinse waxaynu u gudbaynaa xagga Gibecaah.

13 A nd he said to his servant, Come and let us draw near to one of these places, and lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah.

Oo wuxuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, Kaalay oo aynu ku dhowaanno meelahan middood; oo waxaynu u hoyanaynaa Gibecaah, ama Raamaah.

14 A nd they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down upon them by Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.

Kolkaasay iska sii socdeen oo jidkoodii qaadeen; oo waxaa qorraxdu ugu dhacday iyagoo ag jooga Gibecaah oo ay reer Benyaamiin lahaayeen.

15 A nd 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.

Markaasay halkaas ku leexdeen inay u hoydaan Gibecaah. Kolkaasuu galay, oo wuxuu fadhiistay jidkii magaalada; waayo, ninna gurigiisii ma gelin inay u hoydaan.

16 A nd 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.

Oo fiidkii oday baa shuqulkiisii beerta ka yimid. Haddaba ninku wuxuu ahaa reer Efrayimkii dalka buuraha leh degganaa, oo Gibecaahna qariib buu ku ahaa; laakiinse dadkii meesha degganaa waxay ahaayeen reer Benyaamiin.

17 A nd 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?

Markaasuu indhihiisii kor u qaaday, oo wuxuu jidkii magaalada ku arkay ninkii socotada ahaa. Markaasaa odaygii yidhi, Xaggee baad u socotaa? Oo xaggee baad ka timid?

18 A nd 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.

Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaannu ka gudbaynaa Beytlaxam Yahuudah; oo dhanka shishe oo dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim ayaannu tegaynaa. Anigu xaggaas baan ka imid, oo waxaan tegey Beytlaxam Yahuudah; oo haatan waxaan u socdaa guriga Rabbiga, oo nin gurigiisa i geliyeyna ma jiro.

19 A nd 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.

Weliba dameerahayaga waa loo hayaa caws iyo cuntoba; oo kibis iyo khamrina waa u diyaar aniga iyo gabadhaada addoonta ah, iyo weliba ninka dhallinyarada ah ee nala socda annagoo addoommadaada ah, haddaba wax loo baahan yahay ma jiraan.

20 T hen the old man said, Peace be with thee; only let all thy wants lie on me; but lodge not in the street.

Oo markaasaa odaygii yidhi, Nabadu ha kula jirto; habase yeeshee waxaad u baahan tahay oo dhammu ha i saarnaadeen; laakiin jidka ha u hoyan.

21 A nd he brought him into his house, and gave the asses provender; and they washed their feet, and ate and drank.

Markaasuu gurigiisii geliyey, oo dameerihii cuntuu siiyey; oo iyana intay cago maydheen ayay wax cuneen oo cabbeen.

22 T hey 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.

Oo intay farxayeen waxaa yimid raggii magaalada oo niman xunxun ah, oo intay guriga hareereeyeen ayay albaabkii garaaceen, markaasay la hadleen odaygii guriga lahaa, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Noo soo bixi ninkii gurigaaga soo galay, aannu u tagnee.

23 A nd 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.

Markaasaa ninkii guriga lahaa dibadda ugu baxay oo ku yidhi, Maya, walaalahayow, waan idin baryayaaye, ha samaynina wax sidaas u shar ah, maxaa yeelay, ninkanu gurigayguu galay ee ha ku samaynina xumaantan.

24 B ehold, 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.

Bal eega, waxaa jooga gabadhaydii oo bikrad ah iyo naagtiisii addoonta ahayd; haddaba iyagaan idiin soo bixinayaaye, iyaga kufsada oo sidaad doonaysaan ka yeela; laakiinse ninkan ha ku samaynina xumaan caynkan ah.

25 B ut 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.

Laakiinse raggii ma ay doonaynin inay dhegaystaan, sidaas daraaddeed ninkii wuxuu qabtay naagtiisii addoonta ahayd, dibadduuna ugu soo saaray; kolkaasay iyadii kufsadeen, oo si xun bay u galeen habeenkii oo dhan ilaa subaxdii; oo markii waagu baryayay ayay iska sii daayeen.

26 A nd 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.

Markaasaa naagtii timid markii waagu soo kaahay, oo waxay ku dhacday albaabkii ninkii gurigiisa oo uu sayidkeedii joogay, ilaa ay iftiin noqotay.

27 A nd 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.

Markaasaa sayidkeedii kacay aroortii, oo albaabbadii guriga furay, oo inuu tago ayuu dibadda ugu soo baxay; oo bal eeg, naagtiisii addoonta ahayd waxay ku dhacday guriga iriddiisa, oo gacmaheeduna waxay saarnaayeen marinka.

28 A nd 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.

Markaasuu iyadii ku yidhi, Naa bal kac, oo ina keen aan tagnee; laakiinse cidna uma ay jawaabin; markaasuu dameerkiisii saaray, oo meeshiisii u kacay.

29 A nd 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.

Oo markuu gurigiisii galay ayuu mindi qaaday, oo intuu naagtiisii addoonta ahayd qabtay ayuu xubin xubin u kala gooyay, oo wuxuu ka dhigay laba iyo toban cad, oo wuxuu u diray xuduudka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan inta ka dhex leh.

30 A nd 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.

Oo kulli wax alla wixii arkayba waxay yidhaahdeen, Maalintii ay dalka Masar ka soo baxeen ilaa maantadan la joogo reer binu Israa'iil laguma samayn, lagumana arag, shuqul caynkan ah; haddaba bal ka fiirsada, oo ka tashada, oo ka hadla.
