Judges 17:1-6
1And there was a manH376 of mount EphraimH669, whose nameH8034 was Micah.
2And he saidH559 to his motherH517, The eleven hundredH3967 silver-pieces that were takenH3947 from thee, and about which thou didst curse and speak of in mine earsH241, behold, the silverH3701 is with me; I tookH3947 it. And his motherH517 saidH559, BlessedH1288 be my sonH1121 of Jehovah!
3And he restoredH7725 the eleven hundredH3967 silver-pieces to his motherH517; and his motherH517 saidH559, I had dedicated the silverH3701 to Jehovah from my handH3027 for my sonH1121, to makeH6213 a graven imageH6459 and a molten imageH6459; and nowH6258 I will restoreH7725 it to thee.
4Now he restoredH7725 the silverH3701 to his motherH517; and his motherH517 tookH3947 two hundredH3967 silver-pieces and gaveH5414 them to the founder, and he madeH6213 of them a graven imageH6459 and a molten imageH6459; and they wereH1961 in the houseH1004 of Micah.
5And the manH376 MicahH4318 had a houseH1004 of 1godsH430, and madeH6213 an ephodH646 and teraphimH8655, and consecrated oneH259 of his sonsH1121, who becameH1961 his priestH3548.
6In those daysH3117 there was no kingH4428 in IsraelH3478; every manH376 did what was rightH3477 in his own eyesH5869.
