Judges 19:8-14
8Now on the fifthH2549 dayH3117 he gotH7925 upH7925 to goH1980 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, but the girl’sH5291 fatherH1 saidH559, “PleaseH4994 strengthenH5582 1yourselfH3824, and waitH4102 untilH5704 2lateH5186 afternoonH5186H3117”; so bothH8147 of them ateH398. 9When the manH376 gotH6965 upH6965 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 3to a closeH6150; pleaseH4994 spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885. BeholdH2009, the dayH3117 is 4comingH2583 toH2583 anH2583 endH2583; spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885 hereH6311 so that your heartH3824 may beH3190 cheerfulH3190. Then tomorrowH4279 you may ariseH7925 earlyH7925 for your journeyH1870 and goH1980 5homeH168.”
10But the manH376 was unwillingH3808H14 to spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885, so he gotH6965 upH6965 and leftH1980, and cameH935 to a place oppositeH5227 6JebusH2982 (that is, JerusalemH3389). And with him was a pairH6776 of saddledH2280 donkeysH2543; his concubineH6370 also was with him. 11When they were nearH5973 JebusH2982, the dayH3117 was almostH3966 goneH3381; and 7the servantH5288 saidH559 to his masterH113, “PleaseH4994 comeH1980, and let’s turnH5493 asideH5493 into thisH2088 cityH5892 of the JebusitesH2983 and spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885 in it.” 12However, his masterH113 saidH559 to him, “We will not turnH5493 asideH5493 into a cityH5892 of foreignersH5237 whoH834 are not of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478; instead, we will goH5674 onH5674 as farH5704 as GibeahH1390.” 13And he saidH559 to his servantH5288, “ComeH1980, and let’s approachH7126 oneH259 of these placesH4725; and we will spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885 in GibeahH1390 orH176 RamahH7414.” 14So they passedH5674 alongH5674 and wentH1980 their way, and the sunH8121 setH935 on them nearH681 GibeahH1390 whichH834 belongs to BenjaminH1144.
