7. And there was a young man from Bĕyth Leḥem in Yehuḏah, of the clan of Yehuḏah. And he was a Lĕwite, and he was sojourning there.
8. And the man went out of the city of Bĕyth Leḥem in Yehuḏah to sojourn wherever he could find a place. And he came to the mountains of Ephrayim, to the house of Miḵah, as he journeyed.
9. And Miḵah said to him, “Where do you come from?” And he said to him, “I am a Lĕwite from Bĕyth Leḥem in Yehuḏah, and I am on my way to find a place to sojourn.”
10. And Miḵah said to him, “Dwell with me, and be a father and a priest to me, and I give you ten pieces of silver per year, and a suit of garments, and your food.” And the Lĕwite went in.
11. So the Lĕwite agreed to dwell with the man. And the young man became like one of his sons to him.
12. Then Miḵah ordained the Lĕwite, and the young man became his priest, and he was in the house of Miḵah.
13. And Miḵah said, “Now I know that יהוה does good to me, since I have a Lĕwite as priest!”
