< Judges 17 >

1 There was a man of the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Micah.
Adda ti maysa a lalaki idiay katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim, ken ti naganna ket Mica.
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."
Kinunana iti inana, “Dagiti 1, 100 a pidaso ti pirak a naala idi kenka, a nagsaoam iti lunod a nangngegko—adtoy kitaem! Adda kaniak ti pirak. Tinakawko daytoy.” Kinuna ti inana, “Bendisionannaka koma ni Yahweh, anakko!”
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."
Insublina ti 1, 100 a pidaso ti pirak iti inana ket kinuna ti inana, “Inlasinko daytoy a pirak para kenni Yahweh, a maipaay iti anakko a mangaramid iti ladawan a kayo a kinitikitan ken sinukog a landok a ladawan. Ita ngarud, isublik daytoy kenka.”
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.
Idi insublina ti kuarta iti inana, nangala ti inana iti dua gasut a pidaso ti pirak ket intedna dagitoy iti agpanpanday a nangaramid kadagitoy iti ladawan a kayo a kinitikitan ken sinukog a landok a ladawan. Naikabil daytoy iti balay ni Mica.
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.
Ti lalaki a ni Mica ket addaan iti maysa a balay dagiti didiosen ken nangaramid isuna iti maysa nga efod ken didiosen iti bumalay, ket indatonna ti maysa kadagiti putotna a lallaki nga agbalin a padina.
6 In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
Awan ti ari iti Israel kadagidiay nga al-aldaw, ket inaramid idi iti tunggal maysa ti pagarupda nga umno kadagiti bukodna a panagkita.
7 There was a young man out of Bethlehem Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he lived there.
Ita, adda ti maysa nga agtutubo iti Betlehem idiay Juda, iti pamilia ni Juda, a maysa a Levita. Nagnaed isuna idiay tapno tungpalenna ti pagrebbenganna.
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.
Pinanawan ti lalaki ti Betlehem idiay Juda tapno mapan agsapul iti lugar a pagnaedanna. Kabayatan iti panagdaliasatna, dimteng isuna iti balay ni Mica idiay katurturodan a pagilian ti 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."
Kinuna ni Mica kenkuana, “Sadino ti nagappuam?” Kinuna ti lalaki kenkuana, “Maysaak a Levita iti Betlehem idiay Juda, ket agdaldaliasatak tapno agsapul iti lugar a mabalin a pagnaedak.”
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.
Kinuna ni Mica kenkuana, “Makipagnaedka kaniak ket agbalinka a mammagbaga ken padik. Ikkanka iti sangapulo a pidaso ti pirak iti makatawen, kawes, ken taraonmo.” Napan ngarud ti Levita iti balayna.
11 The Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons.
Napnek a nakipagnaed ti Levita iti lalaki, ket nagbalin ti agtutubo a kasla maysa kadagiti putot a lalaki ni Mica.
12 Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
Inlasin ni Mica ti Levita nga agpaay kadagiti nasantoan a pagrebbengan, ket nagbalin a padina ti agtutubo, ket adda isuna iti balay ni Mica.
13 Then Micah said, "Now I know that YHWH will do good to me, seeing I have a Levite as my priest."
Ket kinuna ni Mica, “Ita ammok nga agaramid ni Yahweh iti naimbag kaniak, gapu ta nagbalin a padik daytoy a Levita.”
