Judges 17

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

Ητο δε ανθρωπος τις εκ του ορους Εφραιμ, και το ονομα αυτου Μιχαιας.

And he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from thee, about which thou cursedst, and spakest of also in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be thou of the LORD, my son.

Και ειπε προς την μητερα αυτου, Τα χιλια εκατον αργυρια, τα οποια αφηρεθησαν απο σου, δια τα οποια και συ κατηρασθης, και ακομη ελαλησας εις τα ωτα μου, ιδου, το αργυριον ειναι εις εμε εγω ελαβον αυτο. Η δε μητηρ αυτου ειπεν, Ευλογημενος να ησαι, υιε μου, παρα του Κυριου.

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

Και επεστρεψε τα χιλια και εκατον αργυρια εις την μητερα αυτου, και ειπεν η μητηρ αυτου, Αφιερωμα αφιερωσα το αργυριον εις τον Κυριον εκ της χειρος μου, υπερ του υιου μου, δια να καμη γλυπτον και χωνευτον και τωρα θελω επιστρεψει αυτο εις σε.

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

Αυτος δε επεστρεψε το αργυριον εις την μητερα αυτου η δε μητηρ αυτου λαβουσα διακοσια αργυρια, εδωκεν αυτα εις τον χωνευτην, οστις εκαμεν εξ αυτων γλυπτον και χωνευτον και ησαν εν τω οικω του Μιχαια.

And the man Micah had an house of gods, and made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.

Και ο ανθρωπος ο Μιχαιας ειχεν οικον Θεου και εκαμεν εφοδ και θεραφειμ και καθιερωσεν ενα εκ των υιων αυτου, και εγεινεν εις αυτον ιερευς.

In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.

Κατ εκεινας τας ημερας δεν ητο βασιλευς εν τω Ισραηλ εκαστος επραττεν ο, τι εφαινετο εις αυτον ορθον.

And there was a young man out of Beth–lehem–judah of the family of Judah, who was a Levite, and he sojourned there.

Και ητο νεος τις εκ Βηθλεεμ Ιουδα, εκ της φυλης Ιουδα, οστις ητο Λευιτης και παρωκει εκει.

And the man departed out of the city from Beth–lehem–judah to sojourn where he could find a place: and he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed.

Και ανεχωρησεν ο ανθρωπος εκ της πολεως Βηθλεεμ Ιουδα, δια να παροικηση οπου ευρη και ηλθεν εις το ορος Εφραιμ, εως του οικου του Μιχαια, ακολουθων την οδον αυτου.

And Micah said unto him, Whence comest thou? And he said unto him, I am a Levite of Beth–lehem–judah, and I go to sojourn where I may find a place.

Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Μιχαιας, Ποθεν ερχεσαι; Ο δε ειπε προς αυτον, Εγω ειμαι Λευιτης εκ Βηθλεεμ Ιουδα και υπαγω να παροικησω οπου ευρω.

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.

Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Μιχαιας, Καθου μετ εμου και γινου εις εμε πατηρ και ιερευς, και εγω θελω σοι διδει δεκα αργυρια κατ ετος και στολην και την τροφην σου. Και ο Λευιτης εισηλθε προς αυτον.

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

Και ευχαριστειτο ο Λευιτης να κατοικη μετα του ανθρωπου και ο νεος ητο εις αυτον ως εις εκ των υιων αυτου.

And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.

Και καθιερωσεν ο Μιχαιας τον Λευιτην και ο νεος εγεινεν εις αυτον ιερευς και εμενεν εν τω οικω του Μιχαια.

Then said Micah, Now know I that the LORD will do me good, seeing I have a Levite to my priest.

Τοτε ειπεν ο Μιχαιας, Τωρα γνωριζω οτι ο Κυριος θελει με αγαθοποιησει, διοτι εχω Λευιτην δια ιερεα.
