Judges 17:1-4

1Now there was a man of the hill country of Ephraim whose name was Micah.

2And he said to his mother, “The 1,100 pieces of silver that were taken from you, about which you uttered a curse and also spoke it in my hearing, behold, the silver is with me; I took it.” And his mother said, “Blessed be my son by the Lord.”

3He then returned the 1,100 pieces of silver to his mother, and his mother said, “I wholly consecrate the silver from my hand to the Lord for my son 1to make a carved image and a cast metal image; so now 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 carved image and a cast metal image, and 4they were in the house of Micah.
