Judges 19:6-8

Contemporary English Version

⁶ The two men sat down together and ate a big meal. “Come on,” the man's father-in-law said. “Stay tonight and have a good time.”

⁷ The Levite tried to leave, but his father-in-law insisted, and he spent one more night there. ⁸ The fifth day, the man got up early to leave, but his wife's father said, “You need to keep up your strength! Why don't you leave right after lunch?” So the two of them started eating.
