the house of Micah, as he journeyed.
17:9 And Micah said unto him, Whence comest thou? And he said unto
him, I am a Levite of Bethlehemjudah, and I go to sojourn where I may
find a place.
17:10 And Micah said unto him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a father
and a priest, and I will give thee ten shekels of silver by the year,
and a suit of apparel, and thy victuals. So the Levite went in.
17:11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young
man was unto him as one of his sons.
17:12 And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his
priest, and was in the house of Micah.
