    13He said to his servant, "Come, let us approach one of these places and spend the night in Gibeah or Ramah."

    14So they passed on and continued their journey. The sun set as they came near Gibeah, which belongs to the tribe of Benjamin.

    15They turned aside there to go in and spend the night in Gibeah. When they went in, they sat in the town square, but no one took them into their house to spend the night.

    16In the evening, an old man came in from his work in the field. He was from the hill country of Ephraim and was staying temporarily in Gibeah, though the people of the place were Benjaminites.

    17When he looked up and saw the traveler in the town square, the old man asked, "Where are you going, and where have you come from?"

    18The man answered, "We are traveling from Bethlehem in Judah to the remote parts of the hill country of Ephraim, where I am from. I have been to Bethlehem in Judah, and I am going to the house of the Lord, but no one has taken me into their home.

    19We have straw and feed for our donkeys, as well as bread and wine for me, your servant, for the woman with me, and for the young man who is with your servants. We lack nothing."

    3Then her husband arose and went after her to speak kindly to her and bring her back. He took with him his servant and a pair of donkeys. When he arrived at her father’s house, the woman’s father saw him and was glad to welcome him.

    4His father-in-law, the woman’s father, persuaded him to stay, and he remained with him for three days. They ate, drank, and spent the nights there.

    5On the fourth day, they got up early in the morning to leave, but the woman’s father said to his son-in-law, “Refresh yourself with a piece of bread, and then you can go.”

    6So they sat down and ate and drank together. Then the woman’s father said to the man, “Please agree to stay overnight, and let your heart be content.”

    7The man got up to leave, but his father-in-law urged him, so he stayed there another night.

    8On the fifth day, he got up early in the morning to leave, but the woman’s father said, “Please refresh yourself and wait until the day declines.” So the two of them ate together.

    10But the man was unwilling to stay the night. He got up and left, arriving near Jebus (that is, Jerusalem). He had with him a pair of saddled donkeys and his concubine.

    11When they were near Jebus and the day was almost gone, the servant said to his master, “Come, let us turn aside to this city of the Jebusites and stay the night there.”
