1 And there was H1961 W-VPY3MS a man H376 NMS of mount H2022 Ephraim H669 , whose name H8034 was Micah H4321 .
2 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto his mother H517 , The eleven hundred H3967 shekels of silver H3701 that H834 RPRO were taken H3947 from thee , about which thou H859 cursedst H422 , and spakest H559 W-VQY3MS of also H1571 W-CONJ in mine ears H241 , behold H2009 IJEC , the silver H3701 is with H854 PREP-1MS me ; I H589 PPRO-1MS took H3947 it . And his mother H517 GFS-3MS said H559 W-VQY3MS , Blessed H1288 VWQ3MS be thou of the LORD H3068 , my son H1121 NMS-1MS .
3 And when he had restored H7725 W-VHY3MS the eleven hundred H3967 shekels of silver H3701 to his mother H517 , his mother H517 GFS-3MS said H559 W-VQY3FS , I had wholly dedicated H6942 the silver H3701 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS from my hand H3027 for my son H1121 , to make H6213 a graven image H6459 and a molten image H4541 : now H6258 W-ADV therefore I will restore H7725 it unto thee .
4 Yet he restored H7725 W-VHY3MS the money H3701 unto his mother H517 ; and his mother H517 GFS-3MS took H3947 W-VQY3FS two hundred H3967 MFD shekels of silver H3701 NMS , and gave H5414 them to the founder H6884 , who made H6213 thereof a graven image H6459 and a molten image H4541 : and they were H1961 W-VQY3MS in the house H1004 B-CMS of Micah H4321 .
5 And the man H376 Micah H4318 had a house H1004 CMS of gods H430 EDP , and made H6213 W-VQY3MS an ephod H646 , and teraphim H8655 , and consecrated H4390 one H259 of his sons H1121 , who became H1961 W-VQY3MS his priest H3548 .
6 In those H1992 D-PPRO-3MP days H3117 BD-NMP there was no H369 NPAR king H4428 NMS in Israel H3478 , but every man H376 NMS did H6213 VQY3MS that which was right H3477 in his own eyes H5869 B-CMD-3MS .
7 And there was H1961 W-VQY3MS a young man H5288 out of Bethlehem H1035 - judah of the family H4940 M-CFS of Judah H3063 , who H1931 W-PPRO-3MS was a Levite H3881 , and he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS sojourned H1481 there H8033 ADV .
8 And the man H376 D-NMS departed H1980 W-VQY3MS out of the city H5892 from Bethlehem H1035 - judah to sojourn H1481 L-VQFC where H834 B-RPRO he could find H4672 VQY3MS a place : and he came H935 W-VQY3MS to mount H2022 CMS Ephraim H669 to H5704 PREP the house H1004 CMS of Micah H4318 , as he journeyed H6213 L-VQFC .
9 And Micah H4318 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Whence H370 M-ADV comest H935 VQY2MS thou ? And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , I H595 PPRO-1MS am a Levite H3881 of Bethlehem H1035 - judah , and I H595 W-PPRO-1MS go H1980 to sojourn H1481 L-VQFC where H834 B-RPRO I may find H4672 a place .
10 And Micah H4318 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Dwell H3427 with H5978 PREP-1MS me , and be H1961 unto me a father H1 and a priest H3548 , and I H595 W-PPRO-1MS will give H5414 thee ten H6235 shekels of silver H3701 NMS by the year H3117 , and a suit H6187 of apparel H899 , and thy victuals H4241 . So the Levite H3881 went in H1980 W-VQY3MS .
11 And the Levite H3881 was content H2974 to dwell H3427 L-VQFC with H854 PREP the man H376 D-NMS ; and the young man H5288 was H1961 W-VQY3MS unto him as one H259 K-NMS of his sons H1121 .
12 And Micah H4318 consecrated H4390 the Levite H3881 ; and the young man H5288 became H1961 W-VQY3MS his priest H3548 , and was H1961 W-VQY3MS in the house H1004 B-CMS of Micah H4318 .
13 Then said H559 W-VQY3MS Micah H4318 , Now H6258 ADV know H3045 VQY1MS I that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS will do me good H3190 , seeing H3588 CONJ I have H1961 VQQ3MS a Levite H3881 to my priest H3548 .
