Tetapi ada anakku perempuan, yang masih perawan, dan juga gundik orang itu, baiklah kubawa keduanya ke luar; perkosalah mereka dan perbuatlah dengan mereka apa yang kamu pandang baik, tetapi terhadap orang ini janganlah kamu berbuat noda."
Bahwasanya anakku, yang lagi anak dara, dan gundik orang itu hendak kubawa ke luar sekarang, biarlah kamu menggagahi akan dia dan berbuat akan dia barang apapun yang baik pada sangkamu, hanya akan orang laki-laki itu jangan kamu berbuat perkara yang keji begitu.

Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Behold: The rites of hospitality are regarded as sacred and inviolable in the East, and a man who has admitted a stranger under his roof, is bound to protect him even at the expense of his life. On these high notions only, the influence of which an Asiatic mind alone can appreciate, can the present transaction be either excused or palliated.
them: Genesis 19:8, Romans 3:8
humble ye: Genesis 34:2, *marg. Deuteronomy 21:14
so vile a thing: Heb. the matter of this folly
Reciprocal: 2 Samuel 13:13 - Now therefore

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Behold, here is my daughter, a maiden, and his concubine,.... His own daughter, a virgin, and the concubine of the Levite his guest:
them I will bring out now, and humble ye them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you; those he proposed to bring out, and deliver to them, to lie with, to do with as they pleased to gratify their raging lust, which to do was more than he ought, or had power to do: he had no right to prostitute his own daughter, and much less the concubine or wife of another man, though perhaps it might be with the consent of the Levite; but all this he said in a hurry and surprise, in a fright and terror, and of two evils choosing the least, and perhaps in imitation of Lot, whose case might come to remembrance:
but unto this man do not so vile a thing; as he apprehended that to be which they were desirous of, whether to kill him, as he himself says,
Judges 20:5 or to commit the unnatural sin, and which, rather than comply with, he should have chosen to have been slain.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Judges 19:24. Here is my daughter, a maiden — Such a proposal was made by Lot to the men of Sodom, Genesis 19:8, but nothing can excuse either. That the rights of hospitality were sacred in the East, and most highly regarded we know; and that a man would defend, at the expense of his life, the stranger whom he had admitted under his roof, is true; but how a father could make such a proposal relative to his virgin daughter, must remain among those things which are incomprehensible.
