Exegesis
The cohortatives wə-nā-sūrāh {וְנָסוּרָה | wə-nā-sūrāh} and wə-nā-lîn {וְנָלִין | wə-nā-lîn} preserve Hebrew first person plural volition in English with “let us.”
In context — Judges 19:11
Now they were near Jebus, and the day had declined greatly. Then the servant said to his master, “Please let us go and turn aside to this city of the Jebusite and let us spend the night in it.”
