In Context

9 When the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father-in-law, the young lady's father, said to him, |Behold, now the day draws toward evening, please stay all night: behold, the day grows to an end, lodge here, that your heart may be merry; and tomorrow go on your way early, that you may go home.|

10 But the man wouldn't stay that night, but he rose up and departed, and came over against Jebus (the same is Jerusalem): and there were with him a couple of donkeys saddled; his concubine also was with him.

11 When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, |Please come and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.|

12 His master said to him, |We won't turn aside into the city of a foreigner, that is not of the children of Israel; but we will pass over to Gibeah.|

13 He said to his servant, |Come and let us draw near to one of these places; and we will lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah.|

14 So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down on them near to Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
