Judges 19:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 And on the fifth day he arose to go early in the morning, and the girl’s father said, “Please sustain [a]yourself and wait until [b]afternoon”; so both of them ate. 9 Then the man arose to go along with his concubine and young man, and his father-in-law, the girl’s father, said to him, “Behold now, the day has drawn [c]to a close; please spend the night. Behold, the day is [d]coming to an end; spend the night here that your heart may be merry. Then tomorrow you may arise early for your journey so that you may go to your tent.”
10 But the man was not willing to spend the night, so he arose and went and came to a place before (A)Jebus (that is, Jerusalem). And there were with him a pair of saddled donkeys; his concubine also was with him.

Judges 19:8-10
New International Version
8 On the morning of the fifth day, when he rose to go, the woman’s father said, “Refresh yourself. Wait till afternoon!” So the two of them ate together.
9 Then when the man, with his concubine and his servant, got up to leave, his father-in-law, the woman’s father, said, “Now look, it’s almost evening. Spend the night here; the day is nearly over. Stay and enjoy yourself. Early tomorrow morning you can get up and be on your way home.” 10 But, unwilling to stay another night, the man left and went toward Jebus(A) (that is, Jerusalem), with his two saddled donkeys and his concubine.
