    1And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Micah.

    2And he said to his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, about which you cursed, and spoke of also in my ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be you of the LORD, my son.

    3And when he had restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver to the LORD from my hand for my son, to make a carved image and a molten image: now therefore I will restore it to you.

    4Yet he restored the money to his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made thereof a carved image and a molten image: and they were in the house of Micah.

    10And Micah said to him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten shekels of silver by the year, and a suit of clothing, and your food. So the Levite went in.

    11And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was unto him as one of his sons.
