1890 Darby's Translation of the Holy Scriptures (DBY)Judges 171 Of the money that Micah first stole, then restored, his mother maketh images, 5 and he ornaments for them. 7 He hireth a Levite to be his priest. 17:1 ¶ And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Micah. 17:2 And he said to his mother, The eleven hundred silver-pieces that were taken from thee, and about which thou didst curse and speak of in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be my son of Jehovah! 17:3 And he restored the eleven hundred silver-pieces to his mother; and his mother said, I had dedicated the silver to Jehovah from my hand for my son, to make a graven image and a molten image; and now I will restore it to thee. 17:4 Now he restored the silver to his mother; and his mother took two hundred silver-pieces and gave them to the founder, and he made of them a graven image and a molten image; and they were in the house of Micah. 17:5 And the man Micah had a house of gods, and made an ephod and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest. 17:6 In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes. 17:7 ¶ And there was a young man out of Bethlehem-Judah of the family of Judah, who was a Levite, and he sojourned there. 17:8 And the man departed from the city, from Bethlehem-Judah, to sojourn where he might find [a place]. And as he journeyed, he came to mount Ephraim, to the house of Micah. 17:9 And Micah said to him, Whence comest thou? And he said to him, I am a Levite of Bethlehem-Judah, and I go to sojourn where I may find [a place]. 17:10 And Micah said to him, Dwell with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give thee yearly ten silver-pieces, and a suit of garments, and thy victuals. And the Levite went in. 17:11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons. 17:12 And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah. 17:13 Then said Micah, Now I know that Jehovah will do me good, because I have the Levite for priest. |
