| 1 | There was at that time a man of mount Ephraim whose name was Michas, | Fuit eo tempore vir quidam de monte Ephraim nomine Michas, | Καὶ ἐγένετο ἀνὴρ ἀπὸ ὄρους Ἐφραὶμ, καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῷ Μιχαίας. |
| 2 | Who said to his mother: The eleven hundred pieces of silver, which thou hadst put aside for thyself, and concerning which thou didst swear in my hearing, behold I have, and they are with me. And she said to him: Blessed be my son by the Lord. | qui dixit matri suae: Mille et centum argenteos, quos separaveras tibi, et super quibus me audiente iuraveras, ecce ego habeo, et apud me sunt. Cui illa respondit: Benedictus filius meus Domino. | Καὶ εἶπε τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ, οἱ χίλιοι καὶ ἑκατὸν οὗς ἔλαβες ἀργυρίου σεαυτῇ, καί με ἠράσω, καὶ προσεῖπας ἐν ὠσί μου, ἰδοὺ τὸ ἀργύριον παρʼ ἐμοὶ, ἐγὼ ἔλαβον αὐτό. καὶ εἶπεν ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, εὐλογητὸς ὁ υἱός μου τῷ Κυρίῳ. |
| 3 | So he restored them to his mother, who said to him: I have consecrated and vowed this silver to the Lord, that my son may receive it at my hand, and make a graven and a molten god, so now I deliver it to thee. | Reddidit ergo eos matri suae, quae dixerat ei: Consecravi et vovi hoc argentum Domino, ut de manu mea suscipiat filius meus, et faciat sculptile atque conflatile: et nunc trado illud tibi. | Καὶ ἀπέδωκε τοὺς χιλίους καὶ ἑκατὸν τοῦ ἀργυρίου τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἶπεν ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ, ἁγιάζουσα ἡγίασα τὸ ἀργύριον τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐκ τῆς χειρός μου τῷ υἱῷ μου τοῦ ποιῆσαι γλυπτὸν καὶ χωνευτὸν, καὶ νῦν ἀποδώσω αὐτό σοι. |
| 4 | And he restored them to his mother: and she took two hundred pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith, to make of them a graven and a molten god, which was in the house of Michas. | Reddidit igitur eos matri suae: quae tulit ducentos argenteos, et dedit eos argentario, ut faceret ex eis sculptile atque conflatile, quod fuit in domo Michae. | Καὶ ἀπέδωκε τὸ ἀργύριον τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔλαβεν ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ διακοσίους ἀργυρίου, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸ ἀργυροκόπῳ, καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸ γλυπτὸν καὶ χωνευτόν· καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν οἴκῳ Μιχαία. |
| 5 | And he separated also therein a little temple for the god, and made an ephod, and theraphim, that is to say, a priestly garment, and idols: and he filled the hand of one of his sons, and he became his priest. | Qui aediculam quoque in ea deo separavit, et fecit ephod, et theraphim, id est, vestem sacerdotalem, et idola: implevitque unius filiorum suorum manum, et factus est ei sacerdos. | Καὶ ὁ οἶκος Μιχαία αὐτῷ οἶκος Θεοῦ· καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐφὼδ καὶ θαραφίν· καὶ ἐπλήρωσε τὴν χεῖρα ἀπὸ ἑνὸς υἱῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ εἰς ἱερέα. |
| 6 | In those days there was no king in Israel, but every one did that which seemed right to himself. | In diebus illis non erat rex in Israël, sed unusquisque quod sibi rectum videbatur, hoc faciebat. | Ἐν δὲ ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις οὐκ ἦν βασιλεὺς ἐν Ἰσραήλ· ἀνὴρ τὸ εὐθὲς ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ ἐποίει. |
| 7 | There was also another young man of Bethlehem Juda, of the kindred thereof: and he was a Levite, and dwelt there. | Fuit quoque alter adolescens de Bethlehem Iuda, ex cognatione eius: eratque ipse Levites, et habitabat ibi. | Καὶ ἐγενήθη νεανίας ἐκ Βηθλεέμ δήμου Ἰούδα, καὶ αὐτὸς Λευίτης, καὶ οὗτος παρῴκει ἐκεῖ. |
| 8 | Now he went out from the city of Bethlehem, and desired to sojourn wheresoever he should find it convenient for him. And when he was come to mount Ephraim, as he was on his journey, and had turned aside a little into the house of Michas, | Egressusque de civitate Bethlehem, peregrinari voluit ubicumque sibi commodum reperisset. Cumque venisset in montem Ephraim, iter faciens, et declinasset parumper in domum Michae, | Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ ἀνὴρ ἀπὸ Βηθλεὲμ τῆς πόλεως Ἰούδα παροικῆσαι ἐν ᾧ ἐὰν εὕρῃ τόπῳ· καὶ ἦλθεν ἕως ὄρους Ἐφραὶμ, καὶ ἕως οἴκου Μιχαία τοῦ ποιῆσαι ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ. |
| 9 | He was asked by him whence he came. And he answered: I am a Levite of Bethlehem Juda, and I am going to dwell where I can, and where I shall find a place to my advantage. | interrogatus est ab eo unde venisset. Qui respondit: Levita sum de Bethlehem Iuda, et vado ut habitem ubi potuero, et utile mihi esse perspexero. | Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Μιχαίας, πόθεν ἔρχῃ; καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, Λευίτης εἰμὶ ἐκ Βηθλεὲμ Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐγὼ πορεύομαι παροικῆσαι ἐν ᾧ ἐὰν εὕρω τόπῳ. |
| 10 | And Michas said: Stay with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give thee every year ten pieces of silver, and a double suit of apparel, and thy victuals. | Dixitque Michas: Mane apud me, et esto mihi parens ac sacerdos: daboque tibi per annos singulos decem argenteos, ac vestem duplicem, et quae ad victum sunt necessaria. | Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Μιχαίας, κάθου μετʼ ἐμοῦ, καὶ γίνου μοι εἰς πατέρα καὶ εἰς ἱερέα, καὶ ἐγὼ δώσω σοι δέκα ἀργυρίου εἰς ἡμέραν, καὶ στολὴν ἱματίων, καὶ τὰ πρὸς ζωήν σου. |
| 11 | He was content, and abode with the man, and was unto him as one of his sons. | Acquievit, et mansit apud hominem, fuitque illi quasi unus de filiis. | Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ Λευίτης, καὶ ἤρξατο παροικεῖν παρὰ τῷ ἀνδρί· καὶ ἐγενήθη ὁ νεανίας αὐτῷ ὡς εἷς ἀπὸ υἱῶν αὐτοῦ. |
| 12 | And Michas filled his hand, and had the young man with him, for his priest, saying: | Implevitque Michas manum eius, et habuit puerum sacerdotem apud se: | Καὶ ἐπλήρωσε Μιχαίας τὴν χεῖρα τοῦ Λευίτου, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ εἰς ἱερέα, καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Μιχαία. |
| 13 | Now I know God will do me good, since I have a priest of the race of the Levites. | Nunc scio, dicens, quod benefaciet mihi Deus habenti Levitici generis sacerdotem. | Καὶ εἶπε Μιχαίας, νῦν ἔγνων ὅτι ἀγαθυνεῖ μοι Κύριος, ὅτι ἐγένετό μοι ὁ Λευίτης εἰς ἱερέα. |
