< Judges 17 >

1 And he was a man from [the] hill country of Ephraim and name his [was] Micaiah.
Te gen yon nonm yo te rele Mika ki te rete nan mòn peyi Efrayim yo.
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.
Li di manman l' konsa: -Lè yo te vòlò milsan (1.100) pyès lajan ou yo, ou te bay vòlò a madichon. Nou te tande ou ak pwòp zòrèy nou. Gade, men lajan an nan men m'. Se mwen menm ki te pran yo. Manman an di l': -Se pou Seyè a beni ou, pitit mwen, pou sa!
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.
Mika renmèt milsan pyès lajan yo bay manman l'. Manman an di l' konsa: -Mwen te mete lajan an apa pou Seyè a pou anyen pa rive ou, pitit gason mwen. W'a sèvi avè l' pou fè yon zidòl, yon estati fonn nan moul. Se poutèt sa m'ap renmèt ou lajan an ankò.
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.
Men, pitit la renmèt lajan an bay manman l'. Madanm lan pran desan (200) pyès an ajan, li bay yon bòs ki fè yon zidòl an bwa epi li kouvri li nèt ak ajan. Li mete li lakay Mika.
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.
Nonm Mika a te mete yon kote apa pou li menm l' al fè sèvis pou Seyè a. Li fè yon estati ansanm ak lòt ti zidòl wogatwa epi li chwazi yonn nan pitit gason li yo, li ba l' pouvwa pou l' sèvi l' prèt.
6 In the days those there not [was] a king in Israel everyone the right in view his he did.
Nan tan sa a, pa t' gen wa nan peyi Izrayèl la. Chak moun t'ap fè sa yo pito.
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.
Te gen yon jenn gason ki te rete lavil Betleyèm nan peyi Jida. Se te yon moun nan fanmi Levi yo.
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.
Li kite lavil Betleyèm nan peyi Jida a, li pati, l' al chache yon lòt kote pou l' fè ladesant. Antan l'ap vwayaje konsa, li rive lakay Mika, nan mòn peyi Efrayim yo.
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.
Mika mande l': -Kote ou soti? Nèg la reponn: -Mwen se moun fanmi Levi, m' soti lavil Betleyèm nan peyi Jida. M'ap chache yon lòt kote pou m' fè ladesant.
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.
Mika di l' konsa: -Vin rete lakay mwen non. W'a tou sèvi m' konseye ak prèt. M'a ba ou dis pyès lò chak lanne, san konte rad ak manje.
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.
Moun Levi a te dakò pou l' rete lakay Mika ki te sèvi avè l' tankou pwòp pitit gason l'.
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.
Mika menm bay moun Levi a pouvwa pou l' sèvi l' prèt. Se konsa, li rete nèt lakay Mika.
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.
Lè sa a, Mika di konsa: -Koulye a, mwen konnen Seyè a pral fè tout zafè m' mache byen paske mwen gen yon moun Levi k'ap sèvi m' prèt.
