Judges 17
1 And he was a man from [the] hill country of Ephraim and name his [was] Micaiah.
厄弗辣因山地有一個人，名叫米加，
2 And he said to mother his one thousand and one hundred the silver which it was taken to you (and you *Q(K)*) you cursed and also you said in ears my here! the silver [is] with me I I took it and she said mother his [be] blessed son my by Yahweh.
他對自己的母親說：「有人拿去你那一千一百銀錢，對這事你曾起過誓，我也親自聽見你說：我要親手把這項銀錢奉獻給上主，為我兒做一尊神像。看，銀錢在這裏，是握拿了；如今還給你! 」
3 And he brought back [the] one thousand and one hundred the silver to mother his and she said mother his certainly I consecrate the silver to Yahweh from hand my for son my to make a carved image and a molten image and therefore I will return it to you.
他的母親就說：「願我兒蒙上主祝福! 」於是米加就把一千一百銀錢還給他的母親。
4 And he brought back the silver to mother his and she took mother his two hundred silver and she gave it to the silversmith and he made it a carved image and a molten image and it was in [the] house of Micaiah.
當他把銀錢還給他的母親以後，她的母親便拿出兩百銀子給了銀匠，請他製造一尊神像，安放在米加的家裏。
5 And the man Micah [belonged] to him a house of God and he made an ephod and teraphim and he filled [the] hand of one from sons his and he became of him a priest.
於是米加為這尊神像蓋了一座神廟。又做了「厄弗得」和「忒辣芬，」委派自己的一個兒子充任司祭。
6 In the days those there not [was] a king in Israel everyone the right in view his he did.
當時在以色列沒有君王，各人任意行事。米加收肋未為司祭
7 And he was a young man from Beth-lehem Judah from [the] tribe of Judah and he [was] a Levite and he [was] sojourning there.
當時有一個少年，他是個肋未人，從猷大白冷，即從猷大支派來到那裏作客。
8 And he went the man from the city from Beth-lehem Judah to sojourn in where he will find and he came [the] hill country of Ephraim to [the] house of Micah to make journey his.
這人離開猷大白冷，想找一個可寄居的地方；當他旅行的時候，來到厄弗辣因山地，米加的家旁，
9 And he said to him Micah from where? do you come and he said to him [am] a Levite I from Beth-lehem Judah and I [am] going to sojourn in where I will find.
米加問他說：「你從那裏來﹖」他回答說：「我是個肋未人，由猷大白冷來，想找一個可寄居的地方。」
10 And he said to him Micah remain! with me and become of me a father and a priest and I I will give to you ten silver to the days and an order of garments and sustenance your and he went the Levite.
米加就對他說：「你住在我這裏罷! 作我的師傅和司祭，我每年給你十塊銀錢，還照管你的吃穿。」米加挽留那肋未人，
11 And he was willing the Levite to dwell with the man and he was the young man to him like one from sons his.
他遂同意住在米加那裏，他看待這少年好似自己的兒子。
12 And he filled Micah [the] hand of the Levite and he became of him the young man a priest and he was in [the] house of Micah.
米加又委任了這肋未人，這人遂作了他的司祭，住在米加家中。
13 And he said Micah now I know that he will do good Yahweh to me for he has become of me the Levite a priest.
於是米加說：「如今我知道上主必施恩於我，因為有位肋未人作了我的司祭。」
