Judges 18:18-20

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁸ When they entered Micah’s house and took the carved image, the ephod, the household idols, and the silver idol, the priest said to them, ‘What are you doing? ’

¹⁹ They told him, ‘Be quiet. Keep your mouth shut.^[a](A) Come with us and be a father and a priest to us. Is it better for you to be a priest for the house of one person or for you to be a priest for a tribe and family in Israel? ’ ²⁰ So the priest was pleased and took the ephod, household idols, and carved image, and went with the people.
