Judges 19:1-4

1And it came to pass in those daysH3117, when there was no kingH4428 in IsraelH3478, that a certain LeviteH3881, sojourning on the further side of mount EphraimH669, tookH3947 him a concubineH6370 out of Bethlehem-Judah.

2And his concubineH6370 playedH2181 the whore against him, and went away from him to her father's houseH1004 to Bethlehem-Judah, and wasH1961 there some time, — fourH702 monthsH2320.

3And her husbandH376 roseH6965 up and wentH935 after her, to speakH1696 kindly to her, to bringH935 her again; and his servantH5288 was with him, and a couple of asses. And she broughtH935 him into her father's houseH1004; and when the fatherH1 of the damsel sawH7200 him he rejoicedH8055 to meet him.

4And his father-in-law, the damsel's fatherH1, retained him, and he abode with him threeH7969 daysH3117; and they ateH398 and drankH8354, and lodged there.
