4 His father-in-law, the girl's father, persuaded him to stay with him for three days, and they ate and drank together, and spent the night there. 5 On the fourth day they woke up early and the Levite got ready to leave. But the girl's father said to his son-in-law, |Have a bite to eat for some energy, then you can go.| 6 So the two of them sat down and had a meal together. Then the girl's father said to the man, |Why not stay another night and have a good time!| Judges 19:4-6, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
