8. And the man departed from the town of Bethlehem in Judah to sojourn where he could find a place, and as he journeyed he came to the hill country of Ephraim to the house of Micah.
9. And Micah said to him, From where do you come? And he said to him, I am a Levite of Bethlehem in Judah, and I go to sojourn where I may find a place.
10. And Micah said to him, Dwell with me and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver each year, a suit of clothes, and your living. So the Levite went in.
11. And the Levite was content to dwell with the man, and the young man was to Micah as one of his sons.
12. And Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest and was in the house of Micah.
13. Then said Micah, Now I know that the Lord will favor me, since I have a Levite to be my priest.
