Judges 18:17-20

17And the fiveH2568 menH376 that had goneH1980 to spyH7270 out the landH776 wentH1980 up, entered in thither, [and] tookH3947 the graven image, and the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the molten image; and the priestH3548 stoodH5324 at the entranceH6607 of the gateH8179 with the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were girdedH2296 with weaponsH3627 of warH4421.

18And these cameH935 into Micah's houseH1004, and tookH3947 the carved imageH6459, the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the molten imageH6459. And the priestH3548 saidH559 to them, What do ye?

19And they saidH559 to him, Hold thy peace, lay thy handH3027 upon thy mouthH6310, and go with us, and beH1961 to us a fatherH1 and a priestH3548. Is it betterH2896 for thee to beH1961 a priestH3548 for the houseH1004 of oneH259 manH376, or to beH1961 priestH3548 for a tribeH7626 and a familyH4940 in IsraelH3478?

20Then the priest's heartH3820 was glad, and he tookH3947 the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the graven imageH6459, and wentH935 in the midstH7130 of the peopleH5971.
