Judges 19:21-23

Evangelical Heritage Version

²¹ So the old man brought the Levite to his house and fed the donkeys. He washed their feet, and they ate and drank together.

²² As they were making their hearts glad, all of a sudden the men of the city—worthless, good-for-nothing men—surrounded the house, pounding on the door. They said to the old man, the owner of the house, “Bring out the man who has come to your house. We want to get to know^[a] him.”

²³ But the owner of the household went out to them and said, “No, my brothers, do not do such an evil thing, I beg you. Since this man has come to my house, do not do this disgraceful, foolish thing.
