6. In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did that which was right in his own eyes.
7. There was a young man out of Bethlehem Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he lived there.
8. The man departed out of the city, out of Bethlehem Judah, to live where he could find a place, and he came to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, as he travelled.
9. Micah said to him, “Where did you come from?”He said to him, “I am a Levite of Bethlehem Judah, and I am looking for a place to live.”
