Jasi Vahere 17
1 Hagi mago nera Efraemi agona kokampi nemania ne' agi'a Maika'e.
Now a man named Micah from the hill country of Ephraim
2 Mago kna nererankura amanage hu'ne, nagra nentahugenka 1tausen 100'a silva zagoma musufama erizagenka kazusi ke huzamante'nane. E'ina zagoa nagra musufa eri'noe. Higeno nerera'a kenona huno, hufore'ma hantera Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hugantesie,
said to his mother, “The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you and about which I heard you utter a curse—I have the silver here with me; I took it.” Then his mother said, “Blessed be my son by the LORD!”
3 higeno'a ana 1tausen 100'a silva zagoa erino nerera ome amigeno nerera'a amanage hu'ne, Menina nagra ama'na zagoa nenamofonku hu'na Ra Anumzamofo amuanki'na kaza osu havi anumzamofo amema'a tro'ma nehaza vahe zaminuge'za tro hute'za eme kamigahaze.
And when he had returned the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, she said, “I wholly dedicate the silver to the LORD for my son’s benefit, to make a graven image and a molten idol. Therefore I will now return it to you.”
4 Anage nehuno nerera'a 200'a silva zagoa erino zafare'ma antre'zama silvama rukamre'za keonke'zama tro'ma nehaza vahe ome zamizage'za, eri'za vahe amema'a tro nehu'za, magora silvaretike tro hu'za eme amizageno erino Maika nompi ome ante'ne.
So he returned the silver to his mother, and she took two hundred shekels of silver and gave them to a silversmith, who made them into a graven image and a molten idol. And they were placed in the house of Micah.
5 Hagi Maika'a osi mono noma'a me'neankino, pristi vahe kukena tro huno efotie nehaza amimizare rente'za trohunteno mofavreramima'afinti mago'mofo pristi manisie huno huhamprinte'ne.
Now this man Micah had a shrine, and he made an ephod and some household idols, and ordained one of his sons as his priest.
6 E'ina knafina Israeli vahepina mago kinia omani'neankino mago mago vahe'mo'a agra'a avesite kegeno avure'ma fatgoma hiazana hutere hu'ne.
In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
7 Hagi mago knazupa Juda nagapinti mago Livae nehaza ne'mo'a Betlehem kumate Juda mopafi nemaniane.
And there was a young Levite from Bethlehem in Judah who had been residing within the clan of Judah.
8 Hagi Juda mopafinti Betlehemu kumara atreno kuma'ma manisia kumaku hakeno vu'ne. Hagi anama nevuno'a Efraemi agona kokampi vuno Maika nonte uhanati'ne.
This man left the city of Bethlehem in Judah to settle where he could find a place. And as he traveled, he came to Micah’s house in the hill country of Ephraim.
9 Anama uhanatigeno'a Maika'a amanage huno hu'ne, kagra igati ane? Huno antahigegeno amanage huno ana ne'mo'a hu'ne. Nagra Livae ne' Juda mopafi Betlehemu kumate nemanua ne'mo'na mani'nua kumaku hake'na neoe.
“Where are you from?” Micah asked him. “I am a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah,” he replied, “and I am on my way to settle wherever I can find a place.”
10 Higeno Maika'a amanage hu'ne, Nenfa kna hunka nagri'ene mani'nenka, pristi eri'za vaheni'a manio. Hagi mago mago kafufina 10ni'a Silva zagone kukenane ne'zanena kamigahue, higeno ana ne'mo'a ufre'ne.
“Stay with me,” Micah said to him, “and be my father and priest, and I will give you ten shekels of silver per year, a suit of clothes, and your provisions.” So the Levite went in
11 Hagi Livae nehazamo'a muse nehuno Maika nemofoza higeno,
and agreed to stay with him, and the young man became like a son to Micah.
12 Maika'a ana Livae nehazavea pristi mani'nie huno azeri ruotage higeno, Maika nompi pristi eri'za ne' mani'ne.
Micah ordained the Levite, and the young man became his priest and lived in his house.
13 Ana nehuno Maika'a anage hu'ne, nagra menima nagesama antahuana, Livae ne' pristia azeri otuankino Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hunantegahie hu'ne.
Then Micah said, “Now I know that the LORD will be good to me, because a Levite has become my priest.”
