Judges 17:8-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁸ Then the man departed from the city, from Bethlehem in Judah, to ^[a]stay wherever he might find a place; and as he made his journey, he came to the ^(A)hill country of Ephraim to the house of Micah. ⁹ Micah said to him, “Where do you come from?” And he said to him, “I am a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah, and I am going to ^[b]stay wherever I may find a place.” ¹⁰ Micah then said to him, “Dwell with me and be ^(B)a father and a priest to me, and I will give you ten pieces of silver a year, a suit of clothes, and your maintenance.” So the Levite went in.
