Behold, the day is ^[d]coming to an end; spend the night here so that your heart may be cheerful. Then tomorrow you may arise early for your journey and go ^[e]home.”

¹⁰ But the man was unwilling to spend the night, so he got up and left, and came to a place opposite ^(A)Jebus (that is, Jerusalem). And with him was a pair of saddled donkeys; his concubine also was with him.
