1 And there was a man of mount Ephraim, and his name was Michaias.
1 HUBO un hombre del monte de Ephraim, que se llamaba Michâs.
2 And he said to his mother, The eleven hundred pieces of silver which thou tookest to thyself, and [about which] thou cursedst me, and spokest in my ears, behold, the silver [is] with me; I took it: and his mother said, Blessed [be] my son of the Lord.
2 El cual dijo á su madre: Los mil y cien [siclos] de plata que te fueron hurtados, por lo que tú maldecías oyéndolo yo, he aquí que yo tengo este dinero: yo lo había tomado. Entonces la madre dijo: Bendito seas de Jehová, hijo mío.
3 And he restored the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother; and his mother said, I had wholly consecrated the money to the Lord out of my hand for my son, to make a graven and a molten [image], and now I will restore it to thee.
3 Y luego que él hubo vuelto á su madre los mil y cien [siclos] de plata, su madre dijo: Yo he dedicado este dinero á Jehová de mi mano para ti, hijo mío, para que hagas una imagen de talla y de fundición: ahora pues, yo te lo devuelvo.
4 But he returned the silver to his mother, and his mother took two hundred pieces of silver, and gave them to a silversmith, and he made it a graven and a molten image; and it was in the house of Michaias.
4 Mas volviendo él á su madre los dineros, tomó su madre doscientos [siclos] de plata, y diólos al fundidor: y él le hizo de ellos una imagen de talla y de fundición, la cual fué [puesta] en casa de Michâs.
5 And the house of Michaias [was] to him the house of God, and he made an ephod and theraphin, and he consecrated one of his sons, and he became to him a priest.
5 Y tuvo este hombre Michâs casa de dioses, é hízose hacer ephod y teraphim, y consagró uno de sus hijos; y fuéle por sacerdote.
6 And in those days there was no king in Israel; every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
6 En estos días no había rey en Israel: cada uno hacía como mejor le parecía.
7 And there was a young man in Bethleem of the tribe of Juda, and he [was] a Levite, and he was sojourning there.
7 Y había un joven de Beth-lehem de Judá, de la tribu de Judá, el cual era Levita; y peregrinaba allí.
8 And the man departed from Bethleem the city of Juda to sojourn in whatever place he might find; and he came as far as mount Ephraim, and to the house of Michaias to accomplish his journey.
8 Este hombre se había partido de la ciudad de Beth-lehem de Judá, para ir á vivir donde hallase; y llegando al monte de Ephraim, [vino] á casa de Michâs, para [de allí] hacer su camino.
9 And Michaias said to him, Whence comest thou? and he said to him, I am a Levite of Bethleem Juda, and I go to sojourn in any place I may find.
9 Y Michâs le dijo: ¿De dónde vienes? Y el Levita le respondió: Soy de Beth-lehem de Judá, y voy á vivir donde hallare.
10 And Michaias said to him, Dwell with me, and be to me a father and a priest; and I will give thee ten pieces of silver by the year, and a change of raiment, and thy living.
10 Entonces Michâs le dijo: Quédate en mi casa, y me serás en lugar de padre y sacerdote; y yo te daré diez [siclos] de plata por año, y el ordinario de vestidos, y tu comida. Y el Levita se quedó.
11 And the Levite went and began to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons.
11 Acordó pues el Levita en morar con aquel hombre, y él lo tenía como á uno de sus hijos.
12 And Michaias consecrated the Levite, and he became to him a priest, and he was in the house of Michaias.
12 Y Michâs consagró al Levita, y aquel joven le servía de sacerdote, y estaba en casa de Michâs.
13 And Michaias said, Now I know that the Lord will do me good, because a Levite has become my priest.
13 Y Michâs dijo: Ahora sé que Jehová me hará bien, pues que el Levita es hecho mi sacerdote.
