Judges 17:7-13

Meanwhile there was a young man from Bethlehem in Judah and from a family of Judah. He was a Levite but was a stranger there. He left that town, Bethlehem in Judah, seeking his fortune. He got as far as the hill country of Ephraim and showed up at Micah’s house. Micah asked him, “So where are you from?” He said, “I’m a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah. I’m on the road, looking for a place to settle down.” Micah said, “Stay here with me. Be my father and priest. I’ll pay you ten pieces of silver a year, whatever clothes you need, and your meals.” The Levite agreed and moved in with Micah. The young man fit right in and became one of the family. Micah appointed the young Levite as his priest. This all took place in Micah’s home. Micah said, “Now I know that GOD will make things go well for me—why, I’ve got a Levite for a priest!” * * *
