Judges 19:17-19

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁷ When he looked up and saw the traveler in the city square, the old man asked, “Where are you going, and where do you come from?”

¹⁸ He answered him, “We’re traveling from Bethlehem in Judah to the remote hill country of Ephraim, where I am from. I went to Bethlehem in Judah, and now I’m going to the house of the Lord.^[a] No one has taken me into his home, ¹⁹ although there’s straw and feed for the donkeys, and I have bread and wine for me, my concubine, and the servant^[b] with us. There is nothing we lack.”
