Judges 19:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 And when the man rose up to depart, his father-in-law [a]was earnest: therefore he returned, and lodged there.
8 And he arose up early the fifth day to depart, and the young woman’s father said, [b]Comfort thine heart, I pray thee: and they tarried until after midday, and they both did eat.
9 Afterward when the man arose to depart with his concubine and his servant, his father-in-law, the young woman’s father said unto him, Behold now, the day [c]draweth toward even: I pray you, tarry all night: behold, the [d]sun goeth to rest: lodge here, that thine heart may be merry, and tomorrow get you early upon your way, and go to the [e]tent.
