Judges 19:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 And on the fifth day he arose to go early in the morning, and the girl’s father said, “Please sustain [a]yourself and wait until [b]afternoon”; so both of them ate. 9 Then the man arose to go along with his concubine and young man, and his father-in-law, the girl’s father, said to him, “Behold now, the day has drawn [c]to a close; please spend the night. Behold, the day is [d]coming to an end; spend the night here that your heart may be merry. Then tomorrow you may arise early for your journey so that you may go to your tent.”
10 But the man was not willing to spend the night, so he arose and went and came to a place before (A)Jebus (that is, Jerusalem). And there were with him a pair of saddled donkeys; his concubine also was with him.
