Книга Судей израилевых 17
1 И бысть муж от горы Ефремли, и имя ему Миха:
There was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Michah,
2 и рече матери своей: тысяща и сто сребреников иже украдены у тебе, и заклинала мя еси и глаголала еси во ушы мои: се, сребро у мене, аз взях е. И рече мати его: благословен сын мой Господеви.
And he saide vnto his mother, The eleuen hundreth shekels of siluer that were taken from thee, for the which thou cursedst, and spakedst it, euen in mine hearing, beholde, the siluer is with me, I tooke it. Then his mother saide, Blessed be my sonne of the Lord.
3 И отдаде тысящу и сто сребреников матери своей. И рече мати его: освящающи освятих сребро Господеви от руки моея, тебе сынови моему сотворити (кумир) изваян и слиян, и ныне отдам е тебе.
And when he had restored the eleuen hundreth shekels of siluer to his mother, his mother sayd, I had dedicate the siluer to the Lord of mine hand for my sonne, to make a grauen and molten image. Now therfore I will giue it thee again.
4 И отдаде сребро матери своей. И взя мати его двести сребреников и даде их среброделю, и сотвори тое (кумир) изваян и слиян: и бысть в дому Михи.
And when he had restored the money vnto his mother, his mother tooke two hundreth shekels of siluer, and gaue them to the founder, which made thereof a grauen and molten image, and it was in the house of Michah.
5 И дом Михин ему дом Божий. И сотвори ефуд и ферафин: и наполни руку единому от сынов своих, и бысть ему жрец.
And this man Michah had an house of gods, and made an Ephod, and Teraphim, and cosecrated one of his sonnes, who was his Priest.
6 В тыя же дни не бяше царя во Израили: кийждо муж, еже право видяшеся пред очима его, творяше.
In those dayes there was no King in Israel, but euery man did that which was good in his owne eyes.
7 И бысть юноша от Вифлеема Иудина и от рода племене Иудина, и сей левитин, и обиташе тамо:
There was also a yong man out of Bethlehem Iudah, of the familie of Iudah: who was a Leuite, and soiourned there.
8 и пойде сей муж от града Вифлеема Иудина обитати, идеже обрящет место: и прииде до горы Ефремли и даже до дому Михина, еже сотворити путь свой.
And the man departed out of the citie, euen out of Beth-lehem Iudah, to dwell where he coulde finde a place: and as he iourneyed, he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Michah
9 И рече ему Миха: откуду идеши? И рече ему левитин: аз есмь от Вифлеема Иудина, и иду обитати, идеже обрящу место.
And Michah saide vnto him, Whence comest thou? And the Leuite answered him, I come from Beth-lehem Iudah, and goe to dwell where I may finde a place.
10 И рече ему Миха: седи со мною и буди ми отец и жрец, и аз дам тебе сребреников десять в год и двои ризы, и яже на житие тебе.
Then Michah said vnto him, Dwell with me, and be vnto me a father and a Priest, and I will giue thee ten shekels of siluer by yeere, and a sute of apparell, and thy meate and drinke. So the Leuite went in.
11 И пойде левит, и нача обитати у мужа. И бысть юноша ему яко един от сынов его.
And the Leuite was content to dwel with the man, and the yong man was vnto him as one of his owne sonnes.
12 И наполни Миха руку левитину, и бысть ему юноша жрец, и бяше в дому Михи.
And Michah consecrated the Leuite, and the yong man was his Priest, and was in the house of Michah.
13 И рече Миха: ныне уведех, яко благосотворит мне Господь, яко бысть мне левитин жрец.
Then said Michah, Nowe I know that the Lord will be good vnto me, seeing I haue a Leuite to my Priest.
