Judges 19:3 in Context — Judges 19

1 EN aquellos días, cuando no había rey en Israel, hubo un Levita que moraba como peregrino en los lados del monte de Ephraim, el cual se había tomado mujer concubina de Beth-lehem de Judá.

2 Y su concubina adulteró contra él, y fuese de él á casa de su padre, á Beth-lehem de Judá, y estuvo allá por tiempo de cuatro meses.

3 Y levantóse su marido, y siguióla, para hablarle amorosamente y volverla, [llevando] consigo un criado suyo y un par de asnos; y ella le metió en la casa de su padre.

4 Y viéndole el padre de la moza, salióle á recibir gozoso; y detúvole su suegro, padre de la moza, y quedó en su casa tres días, comiendo y bebiendo, y reposando allí.

5 Y al cuarto día, como se levantaron de mañana, levantóse también el [Levita] para irse, y el padre de la moza dijo á su yerno: Conforta tu corazón con un bocado de pan, y después os iréis.
