Judges 19:16-21

16And, behold, there cameH935 an oldH2205 manH376 from his workH4639 out of the fieldH7704 at even: now the manH376 was of the hill-country of EphraimH669, and he sojourned in GibeahH1390; but the menH376 of the placeH4725 were Benjamites. 17And he liftedH5375 up his eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the wayfaring manH376 in the street of the cityH5892; and the oldH2205 manH376 saidH559, Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou? 18And he saidH559 unto him, We are passing from Beth-lehem-judah unto the farther side of the hill-country of EphraimH669; from thence am I, and I wentH1980 to Beth-lehem-judah: and I am now goingH1980 to the houseH1004 of Jehovah; and there is no manH376 that taketh me into his houseH1004. 19Yet there is both strawH8401 and provender for our asses; and there is breadH3899 and wineH3196 alsoH1571 for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the youngH5288 manH5288 that is with thy servantsH5650: there is no want of anything. 20And the oldH2205 manH376 saidH559, PeaceH7965 be unto thee; howsoever let all thy wants lie upon me; onlyH7535 lodge not in the street. 21So he broughtH935 him into his houseH1004, and gave the asses fodder; and they washedH7364 their feetH7272, and did eatH398 and drinkH8354.
