Judges 19:7-9

Legacy Standard Bible

⁷ Then the man arose to go, but his father-in-law pressed him so that he turned back and spent the night there. 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.”
