1In those days, there was no king in Israel. There was a Levite living temporarily in the remote parts of the hill country of Ephraim, and he took a concubine for himself from Bethlehem in Judah.
2But his concubine was unfaithful to him and left him, going to her father’s house in Bethlehem in Judah. She stayed there for four months.
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.”

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.

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.
