Judges 17:4-6
New Life Version
4 When he returned the silver to his mother, she gave 200 pieces to the man who works with silver. He made them into an object to look like a god for Micah’s house. 5 The man Micah had a special building where gods were worshiped. He made a holy vest and gods for the house. And he set apart one of his sons to be his religious leader. 6 There was no king in Israel in those days. Each man did what he thought was right.
