Judges 17:7-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 There was a young man from Bethlehem of Judah, from the clan of Judah; he was a Levite residing there.(A) 8 The man set out from the city, Bethlehem of Judah, to take up residence wherever he could find a place. On his journey he came into the mountain region of Ephraim as far as the house of Micah. 9 “Where do you come from?” Micah asked him. He answered him, “I am a Levite, from Bethlehem in Judah, and I am on my way to take up residence wherever I can find a place.”
