King James Version
Judges 17:5-12
5And the manH376 MicahH4318 had an houseH1004 of godsH430, and madeH6213 an ephodH646, and teraphimH8655, and consecratedH3027H4390 oneH259 of his sonsH1121, who became his priestH3548.1 6In those daysH3117 there was no kingH4428 in IsraelH3478, but every manH376 didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in his own eyesH5869.
7And there was a young manH5288 out of Beth–lehem–judahH3063H1035 of the familyH4940 of JudahH3063, who was a LeviteH3881, and he sojournedH1481 there. 8And the manH376 departedH3212 out of the cityH5892 from Beth–lehem–judahH3063H1035 to sojournH1481 where he could findH4672 a place: and he cameH935 to mountH2022 EphraimH669 to the houseH1004 of MicahH4318, as he journeyedH1870H6213.2 9And MicahH4318 saidH559 unto him, WhenceH370 comestH935 thou? And he saidH559 unto him, I am a LeviteH3881 of Beth–lehem–judahH3063H1035, and I goH1980 to sojournH1481 where I may findH4672 a place. 10And MicahH4318 saidH559 unto him, DwellH3427 with me, and be unto me a fatherH1 and a priestH3548, and I will giveH5414 thee tenH6235 shekels of silverH3701 by the yearH3117, and a suitH6187 of apparelH899, and thy victualsH4241. So the LeviteH3881 went inH3212.3 11And the LeviteH3881 was contentH2974 to dwellH3427 with the manH376; and the young manH5288 was unto him as oneH259 of his sonsH1121. 12And MicahH4318 consecratedH3027H4390 the LeviteH3881; and the young manH5288 became his priestH3548, and was in the houseH1004 of MicahH4318.
