1 And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Micah. 2 And he said to his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, about which you cursed, and spoke of also in my ears, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed are you of Jehovah, my son. 3 And when he had restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, I had wholly sanctified the silver to Jehovah from my hand for my son, to make a idol and a molten image: now therefore I will restore it to you. 4 Yet he restored the money to his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the refine, who made a idol and a molten image: and they were in the house of Micah. 5 And the man Micah had a house of gods, and made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest. 6 In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes. 7 And there was a young man out of Bethlehemjudah of the family of Judah, who was a Levite, and he dwelt there. 8 And the man departed out of the city from Bethlehemjudah to dwell where he could find a place: and he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed. 9 And Micah said to him, Where do you come from? And he said to him, I am a Levite of Bethlehemjudah, and I go to dwell where I may find a place. 10 And Micah said to him, Dwell with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten shekels of silver by the year, and a suit of apparel, and your victuals. So the Levite went in. 11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons. 12 And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah. 13 Then said Micah, Now know I that Jehovah will do me good, seeing I have a Levite to my priest.
