And it came to pass in those days, [3117] when [there was] no king [4428] in Israel, [3478] that there was a certain [0376] Levite [3881] sojourning [1481] on the side [3411] of mount [2022] Ephraim, [0669] who took [3947] to him a concubine [0802] [6370] out of Bethlehemjudah. [1035] [3063]

2

And his concubine [6370] played the whore [2181] against him, and went away [3212] from him unto her father's [0001] house [1004] to Bethlehemjudah, [1035] [3063] and was there four [0702] whole months. [2320] [3117]

3

And her husband [0376] arose, [6965] and went [3212] after [0310] her, to speak [1696] friendly [3820] unto her, [and] to bring her again, [7725] having his servant [5288] with him, and a couple [6776] of asses: [2543] and she brought [0935] him into her father's [0001] house: [1004] and when the father [0001] of the damsel [5291] saw [7200] him, he rejoiced [8055] to meet [7125] him.

4

And his father in law, [2859] the damsel's [5291] father, [0001] retained [2388] him; and he abode [3427] with him three [7969] days: [3117] so they did eat [0398] and drink, [8354] and lodged [3885] there.

5

And it came to pass on the fourth [7243] day, [3117] when they arose early [7925] in the morning, [1242] that he rose up [6965] to depart: [3212] and the damsel's [5291] father [0001] said [0559] unto his son in law, [2860] Comfort [5582] thine heart [3820] with a morsel [6595] of bread, [3899] and afterward [0310] go your way. [3212]

6

And they sat down, [3427] and did eat [0398] and drink [8354] both [8147] of them together: [3162] for the damsel's [5291] father [0001] had said [0559] unto the man, [0376] Be content, [2974] I pray thee, and tarry all night, [3885] and let thine heart [3820] be merry. [3190]

7

And when the man [0376] rose up [6965] to depart, [3212] his father in law [2859] urged [6484] him: therefore he lodged [3885] there again. [7725]

8

And he arose early [7925] in the morning [1242] on the fifth [2549] day [3117] to depart: [3212] and the damsel's [5291] father [0001] said, [0559] Comfort [5582] thine heart, [3824] I pray thee. And they tarried [4102] until afternoon, [3117] [5186] and they did eat [0398] both [8147] of them.

9

And when the man [0376] rose up [6965] to depart, [3212] he, and his concubine, [6370] and his servant, [5288] his father in law, [2859] the damsel's [5291] father, [0001] said [0559] unto him, Behold, now the day [3117] draweth [7503] toward evening, [6150] I pray you tarry all night: [3885] behold, the day [3117] groweth to an end, [2583] lodge [3885] here, that thine heart [3824] may be merry; [3190] and to morrow [4279] get you early [7925] on your way, [1870] that thou mayest go [1980] home. [0168]

10

But the man [0376] would [0014] not tarry that night, [3885] but he rose up [6965] and departed, [3212] and came [0935] over against [5227] Jebus, [2982] which [is] Jerusalem; [3389] and [there were] with him two [6776] asses [2543] saddled, [2280] his concubine [6370] also [was] with him.

11

[And] when they [were] by Jebus, [2982] the day [3117] was far [3966] spent; [7286] and the servant [5288] said [0559] unto his master, [0113] Come, [3212] I pray thee, and let us turn in [5493] into this city [5892] of the Jebusites, [2983] and lodge [3885] in it.

12

And his master [0113] said [0559] unto him, We will not turn aside [5493] hither into the city [5892] of a stranger, [5237] that [is] not of the children [1121] of Israel; [3478] we will pass over [5674] to Gibeah. [1390]

13

And he said [0559] unto his servant, [5288] Come, [3212] and let us draw near [7126] to one [0259] of these places [4725] to lodge all night, [3885] in Gibeah, [1390] or in Ramah. [7414]

14

And they passed on [5674] and went their way; [3212] and the sun [8121] went down [0935] upon them [when they were] by [0681] Gibeah, [1390] which [belongeth] to Benjamin. [1144]

15

And they turned aside [5493] thither, to go in [0935] [and] to lodge [3885] in Gibeah: [1390] and when he went in, [0935] he sat him down [3427] in a street [7339] of the city: [5892] for [there was] no man [0376] that took [0622] them into his house [1004] to lodging. [3885]

16

And, behold, there came [0935] an old [2205] man [0376] from his work [4639] out of the field [7704] at even, [6153] which [was] also [0376] of mount [2022] Ephraim; [0669] and he sojourned [1481] in Gibeah: [1390] but the men [0582] of the place [4725] [were] Benjamites. [1121] [3228]

17

And when he had lifted up [5375] his eyes, [5869] he saw [7200] a wayfaring [0732] man [0376] in the street [7339] of the city: [5892] and the old [2205] man [0376] said, [0559] Whither goest [3212] thou? and whence [0370] comest [0935] thou?

18

And he said [0559] unto him, We [are] passing [5674] from Bethlehemjudah [1035] [3063] toward the side [3411] of mount [2022] Ephraim; [0669] from thence [am] I: and I went [3212] to Bethlehemjudah, [1035] [3063] but I [am now] going [1980] to the house [1004] of the LORD; [3068] and there [is] no man [0376] that receiveth [0622] me to house. [1004]

19

Yet there is [3426] both straw [8401] and provender [4554] for our asses; [2543] and there is [3426] bread [3899] and wine [3196] also for me, and for thy handmaid, [0519] and for the young man [5288] [which is] with thy servants: [5650] [there is] no want [4270] of any thing. [1697]

20

And the old [2205] man [0376] said, [0559] Peace [7965] [be] with thee; howsoever [7535] [let] all thy wants [4270] [lie] upon me; only lodge [3885] not in the street. [7339]

21

So he brought [0935] him into his house, [1004] and gave provender [1101] unto the asses: [2543] and they washed [7364] their feet, [7272] and did eat [0398] and drink. [8354]

22

[Now] as they were making their hearts [3820] merry, [3190] behold, the men [0582] of the city, [5892] certain [0582] sons [1121] of Belial, [1100] beset the house [1004] round about, [5437] [and] beat [1849] at the door, [1817] and spake [0559] to the master [1167] [0376] of the house, [1004] the old [2205] man, saying, [0559] Bring forth [3318] the man [0376] that came [0935] into thine house, [1004] that we may know [3045] him.

23

And the man, [0376] the master [1167] of the house, [1004] went out [3318] unto them, and said [0559] unto them, Nay, [0408] my brethren, [0251] [nay], I pray you, do not [so] wickedly; [7489] seeing [0310] that this man [0376] is come [0935] into mine house, [1004] do [6213] not this folly. [5039]

24

Behold, [here is] my daughter [1323] a maiden, [1330] and his concubine; [6370] them I will bring out [3318] now, and humble [6031] ye them, and do [6213] with them what seemeth [5869] good [2896] unto you: but unto this man [0376] do [6213] not so [2063] vile [5039] a thing. [1697]

25

But the men [0582] would [0014] not hearken [8085] to him: so the man [0376] took [2388] his concubine, [6370] and brought [3318] her forth [2351] unto them; and they knew [3045] her, and abused [5953] her all the night [3915] until the morning: [1242] and when the day [7837] began to spring, [5927] they let her go. [7971]

26

Then came [0935] the woman [0802] in the dawning [6437] of the day, [1242] and fell down [5307] at the door [6607] of the man's [0376] house [1004] where her lord [0113] [was], till it was light. [0216]

27

And her lord [0113] rose up [6965] in the morning, [1242] and opened [6605] the doors [1817] of the house, [1004] and went out [3318] to go [3212] his way: [1870] and, behold, the woman [0802] his concubine [6370] was fallen down [5307] [at] the door [6607] of the house, [1004] and her hands [3027] [were] upon the threshold. [5592]

28

And he said [0559] unto her, Up, [6965] and let us be going. [3212] But none answered. [6030] Then the man [0376] took [3947] her [up] upon an ass, [2543] and the man rose up, [6965] and gat [3212] him unto his place. [4725]

29

And when he was come [0935] into his house, [1004] he took [3947] a knife, [3979] and laid hold [2388] on his concubine, [6370] and divided [5408] her, [together] with her bones, [6106] into twelve [8147] [6240] pieces, [5409] and sent [7971] her into all the coasts [1366] of Israel. [3478]

30

And it was so, that all that saw [7200] it said, [0559] There was [1961] no such deed [2063] done nor seen [7200] from the day [3117] that the children [1121] of Israel [3478] came up [5927] out of the land [0776] of Egypt [4714] unto this day: [3117] consider [7760] of it, take advice, [5779] and speak [1696] [your minds].
