Judges 17
1 There was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Michah,
Tam-bohibohi’ i Efraime amy zay t’indaty atao Mikà.
2 And he saide vnto his mother, The eleuen hundreth shekels of siluer that were taken from thee, for the which thou cursedst, and spakedst it, euen in mine hearing, beholde, the siluer is with me, I tooke it. Then his mother saide, Blessed be my sonne of the Lord.
Le hoe re aman-drene’e, I volafoty arivo-tsi-zato nikamereñe ama’oy, i nititihe’o am-pitsanoñakoy, ingo te amako i volafotiy; izaho ty nandrambe aze. Le hoe ty rene’e, Tahie’ Iehovà irehe anako.
3 And when he had restored the eleuen hundreth shekels of siluer to his mother, his mother sayd, I had dedicate the siluer to the Lord of mine hand for my sonne, to make a grauen and molten image. Now therfore I will giue it thee again.
Aa ie nahere’e aman-drene’e i volafoty arivo-tsi-zatoy, le hoe ty rene’e: Toe hene navìko am’ Iehovà boak’ an-tañako ho a i ana-dahikoy i volafotiy, hitsenea’e sare pinàtepàtetse naho sare trinanake; aa le habaliko ama’o.
4 And when he had restored the money vnto his mother, his mother tooke two hundreth shekels of siluer, and gaue them to the founder, which made thereof a grauen and molten image, and it was in the house of Michah.
Aa ie nampoly ama’e i volafotiy, le nandrambesan-drene’e ty volafoty roanjato naho natolo’e ami’ty mpanao volafoty le namboare’e sare pinatetse naho sare trinanake, vaho tan-kiboho’ i Mikà ao izay.
5 And this man Michah had an house of gods, and made an Ephod, and Teraphim, and cosecrated one of his sonnes, who was his Priest.
Ie niañoñ’ay t’i Mikà, le nanan-kivohon-drahare, le nitsene hareañe naho terafime vaho nañory ty ana’e ho mpisoroñe
6 In those dayes there was no King in Israel, but euery man did that which was good in his owne eyes.
Ie henane zay, tsy amam-panjaka t’Israele vaho songa nanao ze tea’e am-pihaino’e ao ondatio.
7 There was also a yong man out of Bethlehem Iudah, of the familie of Iudah: who was a Leuite, and soiourned there.
Nisy ajalahy nte-Betlekheme e Iehoda, fifokoa’ Iehoda, nte-Levý, nañialo ao.
8 And the man departed out of the citie, euen out of Beth-lehem Iudah, to dwell where he coulde finde a place: and as he iourneyed, he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Michah
Niakatse an-drova Betlekheme e Iehoda re, hañialo amy ze toetse ho zoe’e; vaho ie amy lia’ey nivotrake Efraime an-kiboho’ i Mikà.
9 And Michah saide vnto him, Whence comest thou? And the Leuite answered him, I come from Beth-lehem Iudah, and goe to dwell where I may finde a place.
Le hoe t’i Mikà ama’e: Boak’ aia v’iheo? vaho hoe re ama’e: nte Levý iraho boake Betlekheme e Iehoda ao, mitaveañe mb’ amy ze mete hañialoako.
10 Then Michah said vnto him, Dwell with me, and be vnto me a father and a Priest, and I will giue thee ten shekels of siluer by yeere, and a sute of apparell, and thy meate and drinke. So the Leuite went in.
Le hoe t’i Mikà ama’e: Mimoneña amako atoa, soa t’ie ho rae naho mpisoroñe amako, le ho tolorako volafoty folo boa-taoñe naho fisikiñe vaho ty mahakama’o. Aa le nimoak’ ao i nte-Leviy.
11 And the Leuite was content to dwel with the man, and the yong man was vnto him as one of his owne sonnes.
Ninò’ i nte-Leviy ty himoneñe amy ‘ndatiy; vaho ni-hoe anak’ama’e i ajalahiy.
12 And Michah consecrated the Leuite, and the yong man was his Priest, and was in the house of Michah.
Aa le noriza’ i Mikà i nte-Leviy vaho nanoeñe mpisoroñe i ajalahiy an-kiboho’ i Mikà ao.
13 Then said Michah, Nowe I know that the Lord will be good vnto me, seeing I haue a Leuite to my Priest.
Le hoe t’i Mikà: Fantako te hañasoa ahiko t’Iehovà kanao aman-te-Levý ho mpisoroñe.
