Judges 17:1-3

Holman Christian Standard Bible

Micah’s Priest

17 There was a man from the hill country of Ephraim named Micah. ² He said to his mother, “The 1,100 pieces of silver taken from you, and that I heard you utter a curse about—here, I have the silver with me. I took it. So now I return it to you.”^[a]

Then his mother said, “My son, you are blessed by the Lord!”^(A)

³ He returned the 1,100 pieces of silver to his mother, and his mother said, “I personally consecrate^(B) the silver to the Lord for my son’s benefit to make a carved image overlaid with silver.”^[b]
