17 And he lifts his eyes, and sees a caravan, a man in the broadway of the city: and the old man says, Whither go you? and whence come you?
18 And he says to him, We pass from Beth Lechem Yah Hudah toward the flank of mount Ephrayim from whence I am: and I go to Beth Lechem Yah Hudah, and I go to the house of Yah Veh; and no man gathers me to his house.
19 And there are yet both straw and provender for our he burros; and bread and wine for me and for your maid and for the young man with your lads: there is no lack of any word.
20 And the old man says, Shalom to you; only, all your lacks be on me; only, stay not overnight in the broadway.
21 So he brings him into his house and fodders the he burros: and they baptize their feet and eat and drink.
