Judges 19

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 There was a certain Levite, who dwelt on the side of mount Ephraim, who took a wife of Bethlehem Juda:	1 Κατ' εκεινας δε τας ημερας βασιλευς δεν ητο εν τω Ισραηλ? και ητο Λευιτης τις παροικων εις τα πλευρα του ορους Εφραιμ, οστις ελαβεν εις εαυτον γυναικα παλλακην εκ Βηθλεεμ Ιουδα.
2 And she left him and returned to her father's house in Bethlehem, and abode with him four months.	2 Και επορνευσεν η παλλακη αυτου παρ' αυτω, και ανεχωρησεν απ' αυτου εις τον οικον του πατρος αυτης εις Βηθλεεμ Ιουδα, και ητο εκει τεσσαρας ολοκληρους μηνας.
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 Και εσηκωθη ο ανηρ αυτης και υπηγε κατοπιν αυτης, δια να λαληση ευμενως προς αυτην, ωστε να καμη αυτην να επιστρεψη? ειχε δε μεθ' εαυτου τον δουλον αυτου και δυο ονους? και αυτη εισηγαγεν αυτον εις τον οικον του πατρος αυτης? και οτε ειδεν αυτον ο πατηρ της νεας, εχαρη εις την εντευξιν αυτου.
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 Και εκρατησεν αυτον ο πενθερος αυτου, ο πατηρ της νεας? και εκαθισε μετ' αυτου τρεις ημερας? και εφαγον και επιον και διενυκτερευσαν εκει.
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 Και την τεταρτην ημεραν, οτε ηγερθησαν το πρωι, εσηκωθη να αναχωρηση? και ειπεν ο πατηρ της νεας προς τον γαμβρον αυτου, Στηριξον την καρδιαν σου με ολιγον αρτον και μετα ταυτα θελετε υπαγει.
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 Και εκαθισαν και εφαγον και επιον οι δυο ομου? και ειπεν ο πατηρ της νεας προς τον ανδρα, Ευαρεστηθητι, παρακαλω, και διανυκτερευσον, και ας ευφρανθη η καρδια σου.
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 Και οτε ο ανθρωπος εσηκωθη να αναχωρηση, ο πενθερος αυτου εβιασεν αυτον? οθεν εμεινε και διενυκτερευσεν εκει.
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 Και ηγερθη το πρωι την πεμπτην ημεραν δια να αναχωρηση? και ειπεν ο πατηρ της νεας, Στηριξον, παρακαλω, την καρδιαν σου. Και εμειναν εωσου εκλινεν η ημερα, και συνεφαγον αμφοτεροι.
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 Και οτε ο ανθρωπος εσηκωθη να αναχωρηση, αυτος και η παλλακη αυτου και ο δουλος αυτου, ειπε προς αυτον ο πενθερος αυτου, ο πατηρ της νεας, Ιδου, τωρα η ημερα κλινει προς εσπεραν? διανυκτερευσατε, παρακαλω? ιδου η ημερα υπαγει να τελειωση? διανυκτερευσον ενταυθα, και ας ευφρανθη η καρδια σου? και αυριον σηκονεσθε το πρωι δια την οδοιποριαν σας και υπαγε εις την κατοικιαν σου.
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 Ο ανθρωπος ομως δεν ηθελησε να διανυκτερευση? αλλ' εσηκωθη και ανεχωρησε και ηλθεν εως απεναντι της Ιεβους, ητις ειναι η Ιερουσαλημ? και ειχε μεθ' εαυτου δυο ονους σαμαρωμενους, και η παλλακη αυτου ητο μετ' αυτου.
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 Και οτε επλησιασαν εις την Ιεβους, η ημερα ητο πολυ προχωρημενη? και ειπεν ο δουλος προς τον κυριον αυτου, Ελθε, παρακαλω, και ας στρεψωμεν προς την πολιν ταυτην των Ιεβουσαιων, και ας διανυκτερευσωμεν εν αυτη.
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 Και ειπεν ο κυριος αυτου προς αυτον, Δεν θελομεν στρεψει προς πολιν αλλοτριων, ητις δεν ειναι εκ των υιων Ισραηλ? αλλα θελομεν περασει εως Γαβαα.
13 And when I shall come thither, we will lodge there, or at least in the city of Rama.	13 Και ειπε προς τον δουλον αυτου, Ελθε, και ας πλησιασωμεν εις ενα εκ των τοπων τουτων και ας διανυκτερευσωμεν εν Γαβαα η εν Ραμα.
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 Και διεβησαν και υπηγαν? και εδυσεν επ' αυτους ο ηλιος πλησιον της Γαβαα, ητις ειναι του Βενιαμιν.
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 Και εστραφησαν εκει, δια να εισελθωσι να καταλυσωσιν εν Γαβαα? και οτε εισηλθεν, εκαθισεν εν τη πλατεια της πολεως? και δεν ητο ανθρωπος να παραλαβη αυτους εις την οικιαν αυτου δια να διανυκτερευσωσι.
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 Και ιδου, ανθρωπος γερων ηρχετο απο του εργου αυτου εκ του αγρου το εσπερας? και ο ανθρωπος ητο εκ του ορους Εφραιμ, παρωκει δε εν Γαβαα? οι δε ανθρωποι του τοπου ησαν Βενιαμιται.
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 Και υψωσας τους οφθαλμους αυτου, ειδε τον ανθρωπον τον οδοιπορον εν τη πλατεια της πολεως? και ειπεν ο ανθρωπος ο γερων, Που υπαγεις; και ποθεν ερχεσαι;
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 Ο δε ειπε προς αυτον, Ημεις διαβαινομεν εκ Βηθλεεμ Ιουδα εως των πλευρων του ορους Εφραιμ? εκειθεν ειμαι εγω? και υπηγα εως Βηθλεεμ Ιουδα, και τωρα υπαγω εις τον οικον του Κυριου? και δεν ειναι ουδεις να με παραλαβη εις την οικιαν αυτου?
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 εχομεν δε αχυρα και τροφην δια τους ονους ημων, εχομεν και προσετι αρτον και οινον δι' εμε και δια την δουλην σου και δια τον νεον, οστις ειναι μετα των δουλων σου? δεν εχομεν ελλειψιν ουδενος πραγματος.
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 Και ειπεν ο ανθρωπος ο γερων, Ειρηνη εις σε? και παν ο, τι χρειαζεσαι εγω φροντιζω? μονον εν τη πλατεια μη διανυκτερευσης.
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 Και εισηγαγεν αυτον εις τον οικον αυτου και εδωκε τροφην εις τους ονους? και επλυναν τους ποδας αυτων, και εφαγον και επιον.
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 Ενω ουτοι ευφραινον τας καρδιας αυτων, ιδου, οι ανδρες της πολεως, ανθρωποι παρανομοι περιεκυκλωσαν την οικιαν, κρουοντες εις την θυραν? και ειπον προς τον ανθρωπον τον κυριον της οικιας τον γεροντα, λεγοντες, Εκβαλε τον ανθρωπον, τον ελθοντα εις την οικιαν σου, δια να γνωρισωμεν αυτον.
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 Και εξηλθε προς αυτους ο ανθρωπος, ο κυριος της οικιας, και ειπε προς αυτους, Μη, αδελφοι μου, παρακαλω, μη πραξητε τουτο το κακον? αφου ο ανθρωπος ουτος εισηλθεν εις την οικιαν μου, μη πραξητε τοιαυτην αφροσυνην?
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 ιδου, η θυγατηρ μου η παρθενος και η παλλακη αυτου? τωρα θελω φερει αυτας εξω, και ταπεινωσατε αυτας και καμετε εις αυτας ο, τι φανη αρεστον εις τους οφθαλμους σας? αλλ' εις τον ανθρωπον τουτον μη πραξητε εργον τοιαυτης αφροσυνης.
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 Οι ανδρες ομως δεν ηθελησαν να ακουσωσιν αυτον? και ελαβεν ο ανθρωπος την παλλακην αυτου και εφερεν αυτην εξω προς αυτους? και εγνωρισαν αυτην και υβρισαν εις αυτην ολην την νυκτα εως πρωι? και καθως εφανη η αυγη, απελυσαν αυτην.
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 Και ηλθεν η γυνη προς το χαραγμα της ημερας και επεσε παρα την θυραν της οικιας του ανθρωπου, οπου ητο ο κυριος αυτης, εωσου εφεγξε.
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 Και εσηκωθη ο κυριος αυτης το πρωι και ηνοιξε τας θυρας της οικιας και εξηλθε δια να υπαγη εις την οδον αυτου? και ιδου, η γυνη η παλλακη αυτου πεσμενη εις την θυραν της οικιας και αι χειρες αυτης επι του κατωφλιου.
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 Και ειπε προς αυτην, Σηκωθητι και ας υπαγωμεν. Αλλα δεν απεκριθη. Τοτε ανελαβεν αυτην επι τον ονον ο ανθρωπος, και εσηκωθη και υπηγεν εις τον τοπον αυτου.
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 Και αφου ηλθεν εις την οικιαν αυτου, ελαβε την μαχαιραν και πιασας την παλλακην αυτου, διεμελισεν αυτην μετα των οστεων αυτης εις δωδεκα μερη, και εστειλεν αυτα εις παντα τα ορια του Ισραηλ.
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 Και παντες οσοι εβλεπον, ελεγον, Δεν εγεινεν ουδε εφανη τοιουτον πραγμα, αφ' ης ημερας οι υιοι Ισραηλ ανεβησαν εκ γης Αιγυπτου, εως της ημερας ταυτης? σκεφθητε περι τουτου, συμβουλευθητε και λαλησατε.
