Judges 19

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 There was a certain Levite, who dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, who took a wife of Bethlehem Juda:	1 وفي تلك الايام حين لم يكن ملك في اسرائيل كان رجل لاوي متغربا في عقاب جبل افرايم. فاتخذ له امرأة سرية من بيت لحم يهوذا.
2 And she left him and returned to her father's house in Bethlehem, and abode with him four months.	2 فزنت عليه سريته وذهبت من عنده الى بيت ابيها في بيت لحم يهوذا وكانت هناك اياما اربعة اشهر.
3 And 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 فقام رجلها وسار وراءها ليطيّب قلبها ويردّها ومعه غلامه وحماران. فادخلته بيت ابيها. فلما رآه ابو الفتاة فرح بلقائه.
4 And 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 وامسكه حموه ابو الفتاة فمكث معه ثلاثة ايام فأكلوا وشربوا وباتوا هناك.
5 But 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 وكان في اليوم الرابع انهم بكروا صباحا وقام للذهاب. فقال ابو الفتاة لصهره اسند قلبك بكسرة خبز وبعد تذهبون.
6 And 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 to day, and let us make merry together.	6 فجلسا وأكلا كلاهما معا وشربا. وقال ابو الفتاة للرجل ارتض وبتّ وليطب قلبك.
7 But he rising up began to be for departing. And nevertheless his father in law earnestly pressed him, and made him stay with him.	7 ولما قام الرجل للذهاب الحّ عليه حموه فعاد وبات هناك.
8 But 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 ثم بكر في الغد في اليوم الخامس للذهاب فقال ابو الفتاة اسند قلبك. وتوانوا حتى يميل النهار. واكلا كلاهما.
9 And 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 to day also, and spend the day in mirth, and to morrow thou shalt depart, that thou mayest go into thy house.	9 ثم قام الرجل للذهاب هو وسريته وغلامه فقال له حموه ابو الفتاة ان النهار قد مال الى الغروب. بيتوا الآن. هوذا آخر النهار. بتّ هنا وليطب قلبك وغدا تبكرون في طريقكم وتذهب الى خيمتك.
10 His 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 فلم يرد الرجل ان يبيت بل قام وذهب وجاء الى مقابل يبوس. هي اورشليم. ومعه حماران مشدودان وسريته معه
11 And 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 وفيما هم عند يبوس والنهار قد انحدر جدا قال الغلام لسيده تعال نميل الى مدينة اليبوسيين هذه ونبيت فيها.
12 His 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 فقال له سيده لا نميل الى مدينة غريبة حيث ليس احد من بني اسرائيل هنا. نعبر الى جبعة.
13 And when I shall come thither, we will lodge there, or at least in the city of Rama.	13 وقال لغلامه تعال نتقدم الى احد الاماكن ونبيت في جبعة او في الرامة.
14 So 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 فعبروا وذهبوا وغابت لهم الشمس عند جبعة التي لبنيامين.
15 And 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 فمالوا الى هناك لكي يدخلوا ويبيتوا في جبعة. فدخل وجلس في ساحة المدينة ولم يضمّهم احد الى بيته للمبيت.
16 And 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 واذا برجل شيخ جاء من شغله من الحقل عند المساء. والرجل من جبل افرايم وهو غريب في جبعة ورجال المكان بنيامينيون.
17 And 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 فرفع عينيه ورأى الرجل المسافر في ساحة المدينة فقال الرجل الشيخ الى اين تذهب ومن اين اتيت.
18 He 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 فقال له نحن عابرون من بيت لحم يهوذا الى عقاب جبل افرايم. انا من هناك وقد ذهبت الى بيت لحم يهوذا وانا ذاهب الى بيت الرب وليس احد يضّمني الى البيت.
19 We 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 وايضا عندنا تبن وعلف لحميرنا وايضا خبز وخمر لي ولامتك وللغلام الذي مع عبيدك. ليس احتياج الى شيء.
20 And 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 فقال الرجل الشيخ السلام لك. انما كل احتياجك عليّ ولكن لا تبت في الساحة.
21 And 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 وجاء به الى بيته وعلف حميرهم فغسلوا ارجلهم وأكلوا وشربوا
22 While 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 وفيما هم يطيبون قلوبهم اذا برجال المدينة رجال بني بليعال احاطوا بالبيت قارعين الباب وكلموا الرجل صاحب البيت الشيخ قائلين اخرج الرجل الذي دخل بيتك فنعرفه.
23 And 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 فخرج اليهم الرجل صاحب البيت وقال لهم لا يا اخوتي لا تفعلوا شرا. بعدما دخل هذا الرجل بيتي لا تفعلوا هذه القباحة.
24 I 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 هوذا ابنتي العذراء وسريته دعوني اخرجهما فاذلوهما وافعلوا بهما ما يحسن في اعينكم واما هذا الرجل فلا تعملوا به هذا الامر القبيح.
25 They 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 فلم يرد الرجال ان يسمعوا له. فامسك الرجل سريته واخرجها اليهم خارجا فعرفوها وتعللوا بها الليل كله الى الصباح وعند طلوع الفجر اطلقوها.
26 But the woman, at the dawning of the day, came to the door of the house where her lord lodged, and there fell down.	26 فجاءت المرأة عند اقبال الصباح وسقطت عند باب بيت الرجل حيث سيدها هناك الى الضوء.
27 And 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 فقام سيدها في الصباح وفتح ابواب البيت وخرج للذهاب في طريقه واذا بالمرأة سريته ساقطة على باب البيت ويداها على العتبة.
28 He 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 فقال لها قومي نذهب. فلم يكن مجيب. فأخذها على الحمار وقام الرجل وذهب الى مكانه.
29 And 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 ودخل بيته واخذ السكين وامسك سريته وقطعها مع عظامها الى اثنتي عشرة قطعة وارسلها الى جميع تخوم اسرائيل.
30 And 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 وكل من رأى قال لم يكن ولم ير مثل هذا من يوم صعود بني اسرائيل من ارض مصر الى هذا اليوم. تبصّروا فيه وتشاوروا وتكلموا
