1 Dans ce temps où il n’y avait point de roi en Israël, un Lévite, qui séjournait à l’extrémité de la montagne d’Éphraïm, prit pour sa concubine une femme de Bethléhem de Juda.
2 Sa concubine lui fit infidélité, et elle le quitta pour aller dans la maison de son père à Bethléhem de Juda, où elle resta l’espace de quatre mois.
3 Son mari se leva et alla vers elle, pour parler à son cœur et la ramener. Il avait avec lui son serviteur et deux ânes. Elle le fit entrer dans la maison de son père; et quand le père de la jeune femme le vit, il le reçut avec joie.
