Judges 19:6-9

6So both of them sat down and ate and drank together; and the girl’s father said to the man, “Please 1be so kind as to spend the night, and 2let your heart be cheerful.” 7However, the man got up to go; but his father-in-law urged him, and he spent the night there again. 8Now on the fifth day he got up to go early in the morning, but the girl’s father said, “Please strengthen 3yourself, and wait until 4late afternoon”; so both of them ate. 9When the man got up to go, along with his concubine and servant, his father-in-law, the girl’s father, said to him, “Behold now, the day has drawn 5to a close; please spend the night. Behold, the day is 6coming to an end; spend the night here so that your heart may be cheerful. Then tomorrow you may arise early for your journey and go 7home.”
