Judges 19:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 And as they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, [a]wicked men beset the house round about, and [b]smote at the door, and spake to this old man the master of the house, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house that we may know him.
23 And (A)this man the master of the house went out unto them, and said unto them, Nay my brethren, do not so wickedly, I pray you, seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this villainy.
24 Behold, here is my daughter, a virgin, and his concubine: them will I bring out now, [c]and humble them, and do with them what seemeth you good: but to this man do not this villainy.
