But then an old man passed by, returning at the end of the day from his work in the field. The man was from the Ephraimite hill country; he was living temporarily in Gibeah.(The residents of the town were Benjaminites.)
When he looked up and saw the traveler in the town square, the old man said,“Where are you heading? Where do you come from?”
The Levite said to him,“We are traveling from Bethlehem in Judah to the remote region of the Ephraimite hill country. That’s where I’m from. I had business in Bethlehem in Judah, but now I’m heading home. But no one has invited me into their home.
We have enough straw and grain for our donkeys, and there is enough food and wine for me, your female servant, and the young man who is with your servants. We lack nothing.”
The old man said,“Everything is just fine! I will take care of all your needs. But don’t spend the night in the town square.”
So he brought him to his house and fed the donkeys. They washed their feet and had a meal.
They were having a good time, when suddenly some men of the city, some good-for-nothings, surrounded the house and kept beating on the door. They said to the old man who owned the house,“Send out the man who came to visit you so we can take carnal knowledge of him.”
