Chapter 17

3He then returned the 1,100 pieces of silver to his mother, and his mother said, 'I wholly consecrate the silver from my hand to the Lord for my son to make a carved image and a cast metal image; so now I will return them to you.' 4So when he returned the silver to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith, who made them into a carved image and a cast metal image, and they were in the house of Micah. 5And the man Micah had a shrine and he made an ephod and household idols, and consecrated one of his sons, so that he might become his priest. 6In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
7Now there was a young man from Bethlehem in Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he was staying there.
King James Version

Chapter 17

3He returned the 1,100 pieces of silver to his mother, and his mother said, "I personally consecrate the silver to the Lord for my son’s benefit to make a carved image and a silver idol. I will give it back to you." 4So he returned the silver to his mother, and she took five pounds of silver and gave it to a silversmith. He made it into a carved image and a silver idol, and it was in Micah’s house.
5This man Micah had a shrine, and he made an ephod and household idols, and installed one of his sons to be his priest. 6In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did whatever seemed right to him.
7There was a young man, a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah, who was staying within the clan of Judah.

3He returned the money to her, and she said, 'I now dedicate these silver coins to the Lord. In honor of my son, I will have an image carved and an idol cast.'
4So when he returned the money to his mother, she took 200 silver coins and gave them to a silversmith, who made them into an image and an idol. And these were placed in Micah’s house. 5Micah set up a shrine for the idol, and he made a sacred ephod and some household idols. Then he installed one of his sons as his personal priest.
6In those days Israel had no king; all the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes.
7One day a young Levite, who had been living in Bethlehem in Judah, arrived in that area.
