Judges 19:14-17

The Message

^14-15 So they kept going. As they pressed on, the sun finally left them in the vicinity of Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin. They left the road there to spend the night at Gibeah.

^15-17 The Levite went and sat down in the town square, but no one invited them in to spend the night. Then, late in the evening, an old man came in from his day’s work in the fields.

When the old man looked up and saw the traveler in the town square, he said, “Where are you going? And where are you from?”
