Young's Literal Translation

King James Version
And there is
a man of the
hill-country
of
Ephraim, and
his
name `is'
Micah ,
And there was
a man of mount
Ephraim, whose
name was
Micah .
and he saith
to
his mother, `
The eleven hundred silverlings
which
have
been
taken
of thine
, and
`of
which '
thou hast
sworn
, and also spoken
in mine ears ;
lo
, the silver `
is '
with me ,
I have
taken
it ;'
and his mother saith
, `
Blessed `is'
my son of
Jehovah
. '
And he said
unto
his mother, The eleven hundred shekels
of silver
that
were
taken
from
thee
, about
which thou cursedst
, and spakest
of
also in mine ears, behold,
the silver is with me ;
I took
it .
And his mother said
, Blessed be
thou
of
the
LORD,
my son.
And he giveth
back
the eleven hundred silverlings
to his mother, and
his mother saith
, `
I had certainly
sanctified
the silver to
Jehovah,
from my hand ,
for my son, to make a graven image ,
and a molten image ;
and
now ,
I give
it back
to
thee. '
And when
he had
restored
the eleven hundred shekels
of
silver
to his mother, his mother said
, I had wholly
dedicated
the silver unto
the
LORD
from my hand for my son, to make a graven image and a molten image :
now therefore
I will
restore
it unto
thee.
And
he giveth
back
the money to
his mother ,
and his mother taketh
two hundred silverlings
, and giveth
them to a
refiner
, and
he
maketh
them
a graven image ,
and a molten image ,
and it
is
in the house of Micah.
Yet
he restored
the money unto
his mother ;
and his mother took
two hundred shekels
of
silver
, and gave
them to the
founder
, who
made
thereof
a graven image and a molten image :
and they
were
in the house of Micah.
As
to
the man Micah ,
he
hath
a
house of gods, and he
maketh
an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrateth
the
hand
of
one of his sons, and
he
is
to
him
for
a
priest ;
And
the man Micah had
an
house of gods, and made
an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated
one of his sons, who
became
his
priest .
in those days there is
no king in Israel, each
that which is
right in his own eyes doth
.
In those days there was
no king in Israel, but
every
man
did
that which was
right in his own eyes.
And there is
a young man of Beth-Lehem-Judah,
of the family of Judah, and
he
`is'
a Levite, and he `is'
a
sojourner
there.
And there was
a young man out
of Bethlehemjudah
of the family of Judah, who
was
a Levite, and he sojourned
there.
And the man goeth
out of the city ,
out
of
Beth-Lehem-Judah,
to sojourn where he doth
find ,
and cometh
to the
hill-country
of
Ephraim ,
unto
the house of Micah, to
work
his
way
.
And the man departed
out of the city from
Bethlehemjudah
to sojourn where he could
find a
place:
and he
came
to mount
Ephraim to
the house of Micah, as
he
journeyed
.
And Micah saith
to
him, `
Whence comest thou? '
and he saith
unto him, `
A Levite `am'
I,
of Beth-Lehem-Judah
, and I am
going
to sojourn where I do
find. '
And Micah said
unto
him, Whence comest thou? And he said
unto him, I
am
a Levite of Bethlehemjudah
, and I go
to sojourn where I may
find a
place
.
And Micah saith
to
him, `
Dwell with me, and be to
me for
a father and for
a priest, and I give to
thee ten silverlings
for
the days
, and a suit of garments
, and thy sustenance;'
and
the Levite goeth
`
in '
.
And Micah said
unto
him, Dwell with me, and be unto
me a father and a priest, and I will
give thee ten shekels
of
silver
by
the year
, and a suit of apparel
, and thy victuals.
So
the Levite went
in.
And the Levite is
willing
to dwell with the man ,
and the young man is
to
him as one of his sons.
And the Levite was
content
to dwell with the man ;
and the young man was
unto
him as one of his sons.
And Micah consecrateth
the
hand
of
the Levite ,
and the young man is
to
him
for
a
priest, and he
is
in the house of Micah ,
And Micah consecrated
the Levite ;
and the young man became
his
priest, and was
in the house of Micah .
and
Micah saith
, `
Now I have
known
that Jehovah
doth
good
to
me, for
the
Levite hath
been
to me
for
a
priest. '
Then
said
Micah, Now know
I that the
LORD
will
do
me good
, seeing
I
have
a
Levite to my
priest.
