17And the fiveH2568 menH582 that wentH1980 to spy outH7270 the landH776 went upH5927, and came inH935 thither, and tookH3947 the graven imageH6459, and the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the molten imageH4541: and the priestH3548 stoodH5324 in the enteringH6607 of the gateH8179 with the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were appointedH2296 with weaponsH3627 of warH4421.

18And these wentH935 into Micah’sH4318 houseH1004, and fetchedH3947 the carved imageH6459, the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the molten imageH4541. Then saidH559 the priestH3548 unto them, What doH6213 ye?

19And they saidH559 unto him, Hold thy peaceH2790, layH7760 thine handH3027 upon thy mouthH6310, and goH3212 with us, and be to usH1961 a fatherH1 and a priestH3548: is it betterH2896 for thee to be a priestH3548 unto the houseH1004 of oneH259 manH376, or that thou be a priestH3548 unto a tribeH7626 and a familyH4940 in IsraelH3478?
