Judges 17:1-4

1And there was a manH376 of the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669, whoseH376 nameH8034 was MicahH4319.

2And he saidH559 unto his motherH517, The eleven hundredH3967 pieces of silverH3701 that were takenH3947 from thee, aboutH3947 whichH834 thou didst utter a curseH1288, and didst also speakH559 it in mine earsH241, beholdH2009, the silverH3701 is with meH589; I tookH3947 it. And his motherH517 saidH559, BlessedH1288 be my sonH1121 of the LORDH3068.

3And he restoredH7725 the eleven hundredH3967 pieces of silverH3701 to his motherH517, and his motherH517 saidH559, I verily dedicateH6942 the silverH3701 unto the LORDH3068 from my handH3027 for my sonH1121, to makeH6213 a gravenH6459 imageH6459 and a molten imageH6459: nowH6258 therefore I will restoreH7725 it unto thee.

4And when he restoredH7725 the moneyH3701 unto his motherH517, his motherH517 tookH3947 twoH3947 hundredH3967 pieces of silverH3701, and gaveH5414 them to the founder, who madeH6213 thereof a gravenH6459 imageH6459 and a molten imageH6459: and it was in the houseH1004 of MicahH4319.
