Judges 17
1 There was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Michah,
А беше један човек из горе Јефремове по имену Миха.
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.
Он рече матери својој: Хиљаду и сто сребрника, што су ти украдени, за које си клела и говорила преда мном, ево, то је сребро у мене, ја сам га узео. А мати му рече: Господ да те благослови, сине!
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.
А кад врати хиљаду и сто сребрника матери својој, рече мати његова: То сам сребро посветила Господу из своје руке за тебе, сине мој, да се начини од њега лик резан и ливен; зато ти га сада дајем натраг.
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.
Али он опет даде сребро матери својој, а мати узе двеста сребрника и даде златару, а он начини од њега лик резан и ливен, те беше у кући Мишиној.
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.
И тај Миха имаше кућу за богове, и начини, оплећак и ликове, и посвети једног између синова својих да му буде свештеник.
6 In those dayes there was no King in Israel, but euery man did that which was good in his owne eyes.
У то време не беше цара у Израиљу: сваки чињаше шта му драго.
7 There was also a yong man out of Bethlehem Iudah, of the familie of Iudah: who was a Leuite, and soiourned there.
А беше један младић из Витлејема Јудиног, од породице Јудине, који беше Левит и онде борављаше.
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
Он отиде из тог града, Витлејема Јудиног, да се настани где може; и идући својим путем дође у гору Јефремову до куће Мишине.
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.
А Миха му рече: Откуда идеш? Одговори му Левит: Из Витлејема Јудиног, идем да се настаним где могу.
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.
А Миха му рече: Остани код мене, и буди ми отац и свештеник, а ја ћу ти дати десет сребрника на годину и двоје хаљине и храну. И отиде Левит к њему.
11 And the Leuite was content to dwel with the man, and the yong man was vnto him as one of his owne sonnes.
И Левиту би по вољи да остане код њега, и би му тај младић као да му је син.
12 And Michah consecrated the Leuite, and the yong man was his Priest, and was in the house of Michah.
И Миха посвети Левита да му је свештеник тај младић, и оста у кући Мишиној.
13 Then said Michah, Nowe I know that the Lord will be good vnto me, seeing I haue a Leuite to my Priest.
Тада рече Миха: Сада знам да ће ми Господ учинити добро зато што имам Левита свештеника.
