Judges 17:3-5
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
3 He restored the 1,100 shekels of silver to his mother, and she said, I had truly dedicated the silver to the Lord from my hand for my son to make a graven image and a molten image; now therefore, I will restore it to you.
4 So when he restored the money to his mother, she took 200 pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith, who made of it a graven image and a molten image; and they were in the house of Micah.
5 And the man Micah had a house of gods, and he made an ephod and teraphim and dedicated one of his sons, who became his priest.

New International Version
3 When he returned the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, she said, “I solemnly consecrate my silver to the Lord for my son to make an image overlaid with silver.(A) I will give it back to you.”
4 So after he returned the silver to his mother, she took two hundred shekels[a] of silver and gave them to a silversmith, who used them to make the idol.(B) And it was put in Micah’s house.
5 Now this man Micah had a shrine,(C) and he made an ephod(D) and some household gods(E) and installed(F) one of his sons as his priest.(G)
