Judges 19:22-27
22While theyH1992 were enjoyingH3190 themselvesH3820, suddenlyH2009 the wickedH1100 menH582 of the cityH5892 surroundedH5437 the houseH1004. PoundingH1849 onH5921 the doorH1817, they saidH559 toH413 the oldH2205 manH376 who ownedH1167 the houseH1004, “Bring outH3318 the manH376 whoH834 cameH935 toH413 your houseH1004, so we can have relations with himH3045!”
23The ownerH376H1167 of the houseH1004 went outH3318 and saidH559 to themH413, “NoH408, my brothersH251, do notH408 do this wicked thingH7489H4994! After allH310, thisH2088H408 manH376 is a guestH935 in my houseH1004. Do notH408 commitH6213 thisH2063 outrageH5039. 24LookH2009, let me bring outH3318 my virginH1330 daughterH1323 and the man’s concubineH6370, and you can useH6031 themH853 and doH6213 with them as you wishH2896. But do notH3808 doH6213 suchH2063 a vileH5039 thingH1697 to thisH2088 manH376.”
25But the menH376 wouldH14H582 notH3808 listen to himH8085. So the Levite tookH2388 his concubineH6370 and sent herH3318 outsideH2351 to themH413, and they rapedH3045 herH853 and abusedH5953 her throughoutH3605 the nightH3915, and at dawnH5927H7837 they let her goH7971. 26Early that morningH6437H1242, the womanH802 went backH935 to the houseH1004 whereH834 her master was stayingH113, collapsedH5307 at the doorwayH6607, and lay there untilH5704 it was lightH216H8033.
27In the morningH1242, when her masterH113 got upH6965 and openedH6605 the doorsH1817 of the houseH1004 to go outH3318H1980 on his journeyH1870, there wasH2009 his concubineH802H6370, collapsedH5307 in the doorwayH6607 of the houseH1004, with her handsH3027 onH5921 the thresholdH5592.
