ΚΡΙΤΑΙ 19:7-14

⁷Καὶ ἀνέστη ὁ ἀνὴρ τοῦ πορεύεσθαι αὐτός· καὶ ἐβιάσατο αὐτὸν ὁ γαμβρὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκάθισε καὶ ηὐλίσθη ἐκεῖ.

⁸Καὶ ὤρθρισε τοπρωῒ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ πέμπτῃ τοῦ πορευθῆναι· καὶ εἶπεν ὁ πατὴρ τῆς νεάνιδος, στήρισον δὴ τὴν καρδίαν σου, καὶ στράτευσον ἕως κλῖναι τὴν ἡμέραν· καὶ ἔφαγον οἱ δύο.

⁹Καὶ ἀνέστη ὁ ἀνὴρ τοῦ πορευθῆναι αὐτὸς, καὶ ἡ παλλακὴ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὁ νεανίας αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ γάμβρὸς αὐτοῦ ὁ πατὴρ τῆς νεάνιδος, ἰδοὺ δὴ ἠσθένησεν ἡμέρα εἰς τὴν ἑσπέραν· αὐλίσθητι ὧδε, καὶ ἀγαθυνθήσεται ἡ καρδία σου, καὶ ὀρθριεῖτε αὔριον εἰς ὁδὸν ὑμῶν, καὶ πορεύσῃ εἰς τὸ σκήνωμά σου.

¹⁰Καὶ οὐκ εὐδόκησεν ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐλισθῆναι, καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἀπῆλθε, καὶ ἦλθεν ἕως ἀπέναντι Ἰεβοὺς, αὕτη ἐστὶν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ μετʼ αὐτοῦ ζεῦγος ὄνων ἐπισεσαγμένων, καὶ ἡ παλλακὴ αὐτοῦ μετʼ αὐτοῦ.

¹¹Καὶ ἦλθοσαν ἕως Ἰεβούς· καὶ ἡ ἡμέρα προβεβήκει σφόδρα, καὶ εἴπεν ὁ νεανίας πρὸς τὸν κύριον αὐτοῦ, δεῦρο δὴ καὶ ἐκκλίνωμεν εἰς πόλιν τοῦ Ἰεβουσὶ ταύτην, καὶ αὐλισθῶμεν ἐν αὐτῇ.

¹²Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἐκκλινοῦμεν εἰς πόλιν ἀλλοτρίαν, ἐν ᾗ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀπὸ υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ὧδε, καὶ παρελευσόμεθα ἕως Γαβαά.

¹³Καὶ εἶπε τῷ νεανίᾳ αὐτοῦ, δεῦρο καὶ ἐγγίσωμεν ἑνὶ τῶν τόπων, καὶ αὐλισθησόμεθα ἐν Γαβαᾷ ἢ ἐν Ῥαμᾷ.

¹⁴Καὶ παρῆλθον καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν, καὶ ἔδυ αὐτοῖς ὁ ἥλιος ἐχόμενα τῆς Γαβαὰ, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῷ Βενιαμίν.
