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.

4 Nítorí náà òun dá sílífà náà padà fún ìyá rẹ̀, ìyá rẹ̀ sì mú igba ṣékélì fàdákà, ó sì fún alágbẹ̀dẹ fàdákà ẹni tí ó fi wọ́n rọ ère fínfín àti ère dídà. Wọ́n sì kó wọn sí ilé Mika.

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.

6 Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kò ní ọba; olúkúlùkù ṣe bí ó ti rò pé ó tọ́ ní ojú ara rẹ́.

In the days those there not [was] a king in Israel everyone the right in view his he did.

7 Ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin kan sì ti Bẹtilẹhẹmu ti Juda wá, tí í ṣe ìdílé Juda, ẹni tí í ṣe ẹ̀yà Lefi, òun sì ṣe àtìpó níbẹ̀,

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.

9 Mika bi í pé, “Níbo ni ó ti ń bọ̀?” Ó dáhùn pé, “Ọmọ Lefi ni mí láti Bẹtilẹhẹmu Juda, mo sì ń wá ibi tí èmi yóò máa gbé.”

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.

10 Mika sì sọ fún un wí pé, “Dúró lọ́dọ̀ mi kí ìwọ sì jẹ́ baba mi àti àlùfáà fún mi, èmi ó sì máa fún ọ ní ṣékélì mẹ́wàá fàdákà ní ọdọọdún, pẹ̀lú aṣọ àti oúnjẹ rẹ̀.”

11 Ọmọ Lefi náà sì gbà láti máa bá a gbé, ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà sì dàbí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀.

And he was willing the Levite to dwell with the man and he was the young man to him like one from sons his.

12 Nígbà náà ni Mika ya ará Lefi náà sí mímọ́, ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà sì di àlùfáà rẹ̀, ó sì ń gbé ilé rẹ̀.

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.
