Judges 17
1 There was a man of the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Micah.
Adunay usa ka tawo nga anaa sa kabungtoran nga bahin sa Efraim, ug ang iyang ngalan mao si Micah.
2 And he said to his mother, "The eleven hundred pieces of silver that were taken from you, about which you uttered a curse, and also spoke it in my ears, look, the silver is with me; I took it, but now I will restore it to you." And his mother said, "Blessed be my son by YHWH."
Miingon siya sa iyang inahan, “Ang 1, 100 ka buok plata nga gikuha gikan kanimo, hinungdan sa imong gisulti nga tunglo, nga diin akong nadungog—tan-awa dinhi! Ang plata uban kanako, gikawat ko kini.” Miingon ang iyang inahan, “Hinaot nga panalanginan ka ni Yahweh, akong anak!”
3 And he restored the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother; and his mother said, "I most certainly dedicate the silver to YHWH from my hand for my son, to make an engraved image and a molten image."
Giuli niya sa iyang inahan ang 1, 100 ka plata ug ang iyang inahan miingon, “Gilain ko kini nga plata ngadto kang Yahweh, aron himoong kinulit ug hinulmang puthaw nga larawan alang sa akong anak. Busa karon, ibalik ko kini kanimo.”
4 When he restored the money to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made of it an engraved image and a molten image: and it was in the house of Micah.
Sa dihang giuli na niya ang kwarta ngadto sa iyang inahan, ang iyang inahan mikuha ug 200 ka buok plata ug gihatag kini ngadto sa magbubuhat ug puthaw aron nga himoong kinulit nga larawan, ug gibutang sila sa balay ni Micah.
5 The man Micah had a house of God, and he made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.
Ang tawo nga si Micah adunay balay alang sa mga ribulto ug naghimo siyag ephod ug mga diosdios sa panimalay, ug gikuha niya ang usa sa iyang anak aron mahimong iyang pari.
6 In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
Niadtong adlawa walay hari sa Israel, ug ang tanan nagbuhat sumala sa kung unsay tama sa ilang mga mata.
7 There was a young man out of Bethlehem Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he lived there.
Karon adunay batan-ong lalaki sa Bethlehem diha sa Judah, sakop sa pamilya ni Judah, nga usa ka Levita. Nagpuyo siya didto aron himoon ang iyang mga buluhaton.
8 The man departed out of the city, out of Bethlehem Judah, to live where he could find a place, and he came to the hill country of Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he traveled.
Ang lalaki mihawa sa Bethlehem sa Judah aron molakaw sa pagpangitag dapit aron kapuy-an. Sa iyang panaw, miabot siya sa balay ni Micah sa kabungtorang lungsod sa Efraim.
9 Micah said to him, "Where did you come from?" He said to him, "I am a Levite of Bethlehem Judah, and I am going to settle wherever I may find a place."
Miingon si Micah kaniya, “Asa ka man gikan?” Ang lalaki mitubag kaniya, “Usa ako ka Levita nga gikan sa Bethlehem sa Judah, ug nagpanaw ako aron mangitag dapit diin ako makapuyo.”
10 Micah said to him, "Dwell with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver by the year, and a suit of clothing, and your food." So the Levite went in.
Miingon si Micah kaniya, “Puyo uban kanako, ug mahimo ka nga akong amahan ug pari. Hatagan ko ikaw ug napulo ka plata matag tuig, mga kupo sa bisti, ug imong pagkaon.”
11 The Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons.
Busa ang Levita miadto sa iyang balay. Kuntento siya nga magpuyo uban kang Micah, ug ang batan-ong lalaki alang kang Micah nahimong sama sa usa sa mga anak.
12 Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
Gigahin ni Micah ang Levita alang sa balaanong mga buluhaton, ug ang batan-ong lalaki nahimong iyang pari, nga nagpuyo sa iyang balay.
13 Then Micah said, "Now I know that YHWH will do good to me, seeing I have a Levite as my priest."
Unya miingon si Micah, “Karon nasayod ako nga si Yahweh magbuhat ug maayo alang kanako, tungod kay kining Levita nahimong akong pari.”
