기브아에 우거하는 에브라임 산지 노인이 행객을 데리고 자기 집에 들어감
Judges 19:16–21: an old man comes from his work out of the field at evening. Now the man is from the hill country of Ephraim, and he lives in Gibeah; but the men of the place are Benjamites. He lifts up his eyes, and sees the wayfaring man in the street of the city; and the old man says, “Where are you going? Where did you come from?” The wayfaring man says to him, “We are passing from Bethlehem Judah to the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim. I am from there, and I went to Bethlehem Judah. I am going to the LORD’s house; and there is no one who has taken me into his house. Yet there is both straw and feed for our donkeys; and there is bread and wine also for me, and for your servant, and for the young man who is with your servants. There is no lack of anything.” The old man says, “Peace be to you! Just let me supply all your needs, but don’t sleep in the street.” So he brings him into his house, and gives the donkeys fodder. Then they wash their feet, and eat and drink.
