7. At that same time there was a young Levite who had been living in the town of Bethlehem in Judah.
8. He left Bethlehem to find somewhere else to live. While he was travelling, he came to Micah's house in the hill country of Ephraim.
9. Micah asked him, “Where do you come from?”He answered, “I am a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah. I am looking for somewhere to live.”
10. Micah said, “Stay with me. Be my adviser and priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver a year, some clothes, and your food.”
11. The young Levite agreed to stay with Micah and became like a son to him.
12. Micah appointed him as his priest, and he lived in Micah's home.
13. Micah said, “Now that I have a Levite as my priest, I know that the Lord will make things go well for me.”
