Judges 17:7-13

Judges 17:7-13 NCV

There was a young man who was a Levite from the city of Bethlehem in Judah who was from the people of Judah. He left Bethlehem to look for another place to live, and on his way he came to Micah’s house in the mountains of Ephraim. Micah asked him, “Where are you from?” He answered, “I’m a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah. I’m looking for a place to live.” Micah said to him, “Live with me and be my father and my priest. I will give you four ounces of silver each year and clothes and food.” So the Levite went in. He agreed to live with Micah and became like one of Micah’s own sons. Micah made him a priest, and he lived in Micah’s house. Then Micah said, “Now I know the LORD will be good to me, because I have a Levite as my priest.”
