Judges 19:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ But he rising up began to be for departing. And nevertheless his father in law earnestly pressed him, and made him stay with him.

⁸ But when morning was come, the Levite prepared to go on his journey. And his father in law said to him again: I beseech thee to take a little meat, and strengthening thyself, till the day be farther advanced, afterwards thou mayest depart. And they ate together.

⁹ And the young man arose to set forward with his wife and servant. And his father in law spoke to him again: Consider that the day is declining, and draweth toward evening: tarry with me to day also, and spend the day in mirth, and to morrow thou shalt depart, that thou mayest go into thy house.
