Judges 17:10-13 English Standard Version (ESV)

10. And Micah said to him, “Stay with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver a year and a suit of clothes and your living.” And the Levite went in.

11. And the Levite was content to dwell with the man, and the young man became to him like one of his sons.

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

13. Then Micah said, “Now I know that the Lord will prosper me, because I have a Levite as priest.”
