Judges 19:16-21

Bible Text

[16] Behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even: now the man was of the hill-country of Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjamites. [17] He lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the street of the city; and the old man said, Where go you? and whence come you? [18] He said to him, We are passing from Bethlehem Judah to the farther side of the hill-country of Ephraim; from there am I, and I went to Bethlehem Judah: and I am [now] going to the house of Yahweh; and there is no man who takes me into his house. [19] Yet there is both straw and provender for our donkeys; and there is bread and wine also for me, and for your handmaid, and for the young man who is with your servants: there is no want of anything. [20] The old man said, Peace be to you; howsoever let all your wants lie on me; only don't lodge in the street. [21] So he brought him into his house, and gave the donkeys fodder; and they washed their feet, and ate and drink.
