    13He said to his servant, "Come, let us draw near to one of these places to lodge all night in Gibeah or in Ramah."

    14So they passed on and went their way, and the sun went down upon them when they were near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.

    15They turned aside there to go in to lodge in Gibeah, and when he went in, he sat down in a street of the city, for there was no one who took them into his house to lodge.

    16And behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at evening, who was also from Mount Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjamites.

    17When he lifted up his eyes, he saw a traveler in the street of the city, and the old man said, "Where are you going? And where do you come from?"

    18He said to him, "We are traveling from Bethlehem in Judah toward the side of Mount Ephraim. I am from there, and I went to Bethlehem in Judah, but now I am going to the house of the LORD, and there is no one who receives me into their house.

    19Yet there is both straw and feed for our donkeys, and there is bread and wine also for me, for your maidservant, and for the young man who is with your servants. There is no lack of anything."

    20And the old man said, "Peace be with you; however, let all your needs lie upon me; only do not lodge in the street."

    21So he brought him into his house and fed the donkeys, and they washed their feet, and ate and drank.

    22As they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain sons of Belial, surrounded the house, and beat at the door, and spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, "Bring out the man who came into your house, that we may know him."

    23And the man, the master of the house, went out to them and said to them, "No, my brothers, no, I beg you, do not act so wickedly, seeing this man has come into my house; do not do this disgraceful thing.

    24Behold, here is my daughter, a maiden, and his concubine; I will bring them out now, abuse them, and do to them what seems good to you; but do not do such a vile thing to this man."

    9When the man arose to depart with his concubine and servant, his father-in-law, the young woman's father, said to him, "Look, now the day draws toward evening; please stay all night. Look, the day ends; lodge here, that your heart may be merry. Tomorrow go early on your way that you may go home."

    10But the man would not remain that night; he got up and departed and came opposite Jebus, which is Jerusalem, and with him were two saddled donkeys; his concubine also was with him.

    11When they were near Jebus, the day was far spent, and the servant said to his master, "Please come, let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites and lodge in it."
