6. In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
7. And there was a young man out of Beth-lehem-judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite, and he sojourned there.
8. And the man departed out of the city, out of Beth-lehem-judah, to sojourn where he could find a place: and he came to the hill country of Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed.
9. 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.
