^{13 Ref} And he said to his servant, Come, let us go on to one of these places, stopping for the night in Gibeah or Ramah.

^{15 Ref} And they went off the road there with the purpose of stopping for the night in Gibeah: and he went in, seating himself in the street of the town, for no one took them into his house for the night.

^{16 Ref} Now when it was evening they saw an old man coming back from his work in the fields; he was from the hill-country of Ephraim and was living in Gibeah: but the men of the place were Benjamites.
