5. Micah had a temple for worshiping idols. He made a vest for a priest and some household idols. Then Micah chose one of his sons to be his priest.
6. At that time the Israelites did not have a king. So everyone did what he thought was right.
7. There was a young man who was a Levite. He was from the city of Bethlehem in the land of Judah. He had been living with the people of Judah.
8. He left Bethlehem to look for another place to live. On his way he came to Micah’s house. It was in the mountains of Ephraim.
9. Micah asked him, “Where have you come from?”He answered, “I’m a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah. I’m looking for a place to live.”
