Judges:18:17-24
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the five men that went to spy out the land went up ,
and came in thither ,
and took the graven image ,
and the ephod ,
and the teraphim ,
and the molten image :
and the priest stood in the entering of the gate with the six hundred men that were appointed with weapons of war .
*
And these went into Micahs house ,
and fetched the carved image ,
the ephod ,
and the teraphim ,
and the molten image .
Then said the priest unto them ,
What do ye ?
*
And they said unto him ,
Hold thy peace ,
lay thine hand upon thy mouth ,
and go with us ,
and be to us a father and a priest :
is it better for thee to be a priest unto the house of one man ,
or that thou be a priest unto a tribe and a family in Israel Yisra #
el #?
*
And the priests heart was glad ,
and he took the ephod ,
and the teraphim ,
and the graven image ,
and went in the midst of the people .
*
So they turned and departed ,
and put the little ones and the cattle and the carriage before them .
*
And when they were a good way from the house of Micah ,
the men that were in the houses near to Micahs house were gathered together ,
and overtook the children of Dan .
*
And they cried unto the children of Dan .
And they turned their faces ,
and said unto Micah ,
What aileth thee ,
that thou comest with such a company ?
*
And he said ,
Ye have taken away my gods which I made ,
and the priest ,
and ye are gone away :
and what have I more ?
and what is this that ye say unto me ,
What aileth thee ?
