Judges 17:3-5

3He then returned the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother, and his mother said, “I wholly dedicate the silver from my hand to the Lord for my son 1to make a graven image and a molten image; now therefore, I will return 2them to you.”

4So when he returned the silver to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith who made 3them into a graven image and a molten image, and 4they were in the house of Micah.

5And the man Micah had a 56shrine and he made an 7ephod and 89household idols and 10consecrated one of his sons, 11that he might become his priest.
