17THERE WAS a man of the hill country of Ephraim whose name was Micah.H376H2022H669H8034H43212And he said to his mother, The 1,100 shekels of silver that were taken from you, about which you cursed and also spoke about in my hearing, behold, I have the silver with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be you by the Lord, my son!H559H517H505H3967H3701H3947H422H559H241H3701H3947H517H559H1288H3068H11213He restored the 1,100 shekels of silver to his mother, and she said, I had truly dedicated the silver to the Lord from my hand for my son to make a graven image and a molten image; now therefore, I will restore it to you.H7725H505H3967H3701H517H517H559H6942H6942H3701H3068H3027H1121H6213H6459H4541H77254So when he restored the money to his mother, she took 200 pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith, who made of it a graven image and a molten image; and they were in the house of Micah.H7725H3701H517H517H3947H3967H3701H5414H6884H6213H6459H4541H1004H43215And the man Micah had a house of gods, and he made an ephod and teraphim and dedicated one of his sons, who became his priest.H376H4318H1004H430H6213H646H8655H4390H3027H259H1121H35486In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes.H3117H4428H3478H376H6213H3477H58697And there was a young man in Bethlehem of Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he sojourned there.H5288H1035H3063H4940H3063H3881H14818And the man departed from the town of Bethlehem in Judah to sojourn where he could find a place, and as he journeyed he came to the hill country of Ephraim to the house of Micah.H376H3212H5892H1035H3063H1481H4672H935H2022H669H1004H4318H6213H18709And Micah said to him, From where do you come? And he said to him, I am a Levite of Bethlehem in Judah, and I go to sojourn where I may find a place.H4318H559H370H935H559H3881H1035H3063H1980H1481H467210And Micah said to him, Dwell with me and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver each year, a suit of clothes, and your living. So the Levite went in.H4318H559H3427H1H3548H5414H6235H3701H3117H6187H899H4241H3881H321211And the Levite was content to dwell with the man, and the young man was to Micah as one of his sons.H3881H2974H3427H376H5288H259H112112And Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest and was in the house of Micah.H4318H4390H3027H3881H5288H3548H1004H431813Then said Micah, Now I know that the Lord will favor me, since I have a Levite to be my priest.H559H4318H3045H3068H3190H3881H3548
Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
