For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?

since a friend of mine on a journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him;

seeing a friend of mine came out of the way unto me, and I have not what I shall set before him,

For a friend of my in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?

for a friend of mine has just come to my house from a distance, and I have nothing for him to eat'?

because a friend of mine has arrived from a journey to me, and I do not have anything to set before him.'

for a friend of mine has arrived at my house after a journey, and I have nothing to offer him;'

In his journey is come - Or, perhaps more literally, A friend of mine is come to me out of his way, εξ ὁδου, which renders the case more urgent - a friend of mine, benighted, belated, and who has lost his way, is come unto me. This was a strong reason why he should have prompt relief.

For a friend of mine in his journey,.... Or "out of the way"; having lost his way, being benighted; and has rambled about for some time, and at length,
is come to me; for lodging and entertainment:
and I have nothing to set before him; to refresh him with, after such a fatigue, before he goes to bed, which was very requisite and proper.
