Judges 19:4-9
4His father-in-lawH2860, the girl’sH5291 fatherH1, detainedH2388 him; and he remainedH3427 with him threeH7969 daysH3117. So they ateH398 and drankH8354 and lodgedH3885 thereH8033. 5Now on the fourthH7243 dayH3117 they gotH7925 up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and he 1preparedH6965 to goH1980; and the girl’sH5291 fatherH1 saidH559 to his son-in-lawH2860, “2SustainH5582 3yourselfH3820 with a pieceH6595 of breadH3899, and afterwardH310 you may goH1980.” 6So bothH8147 of them satH3427 downH3427 and ateH398 and drankH8354 togetherH3164; and the girl’sH5291 fatherH1 saidH559 to the manH376, “PleaseH4994 be willingH2974 to spendH3885 the nightH3885, and 4let your heartH3820 be merryH3190.” 7Then the manH376 aroseH6965 to goH1980, but his father-in-lawH2860 urgedH6484 him so that he spentH3885 the nightH3885 thereH8033 againH7725. 8On the fifthH2549 dayH3117 he aroseH7925 to goH1980 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and the girl’sH5291 fatherH1 saidH559, “PleaseH4994 sustainH5582 5yourselfH3824, and waitH4102 untilH5704 6afternoonH5186H3117”; so bothH8147 of them ateH398. 9When the manH376 aroseH6965 to goH1980 along with his concubineH6370 and servantH5288, his father-in-lawH2860, the girl’sH5291 fatherH1, saidH559 to him, “BeholdH2009 nowH4994, the dayH3117 has drawnH7503 7to a closeH6150; pleaseH4994 spendH3885 the nightH3885. LoH2009, the dayH3117 is 8comingH2583 to an endH2583; spendH3885 the nightH3885 hereH6311 that your heartH3824 may be merryH3190. Then tomorrowH4279 you may ariseH7925 earlyH7925 for your journeyH1870 so that you may goH1980 9homeH168.”
