士師記 17
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1以法蓮 山地有一個人名叫 米迦 。
1There was a man of the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Micah.
2他對母親說：「你那一千一百 舍客勒 銀子被人拿去，你因此咒詛，並且告訴了我。看哪，這銀子在我這裏，是我拿去了。」他母親說：「我兒啊，願耶和華賜福與你！」
2He said to his mother, “The eleven hundred pieces of silver that were taken from you, about which you uttered a curse, and also spoke it in my ears—behold, the silver is with me. I took it.” His mother said, “May the LORD bless my son!”
3米迦 就把這一千一百 舍客勒 銀子還他母親。他母親說：「我分出這銀子來為你獻給耶和華，好雕刻一個像，鑄成一個像。現在我還是交給你。」
3He restored the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother, then his mother said, “I most certainly dedicate the silver to the LORD from my hand for my son, to make a carved image and a molten image. Now therefore I will restore it to you.”
4米迦 將銀子還他母親，他母親將二百 舍客勒 銀子交給銀匠，雕刻一個像，鑄成一個像，安置在 米迦 的屋內。
4When he restored the money to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver, and gave them to a silversmith, who made a carved image and a molten image out of it. It was in the house of Micah.
5這 米迦 有了神堂，又製造以弗得和家中的神像，分派他一個兒子作祭司。
5The man Micah had a house of gods, and he made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.
6那時 以色列 中沒有王，各人任意而行。
6In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did that which was right in his own eyes.
7猶大 的 伯利恆 有一個少年人，是 猶大 族的 利未 人，他在那裏寄居。
7There was a young man out of Bethlehem Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he lived there.
8這人離開 猶大 的 伯利恆 城，要找一個可住的 地方 。行路的時候，到了 以法蓮 山地，走到 米迦 的家。
8The 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 traveled.
9米迦 問他說：「你從哪裏來？」他回答說：「從 猶大 的 伯利恆 來。我是 利未 人，要找一個可住的 地方 。」
9Micah 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.”
10米迦 說：「你可以住在我這裏，我以你為父、為祭司。我每年給你十 舍客勒 銀子，一套衣服和度日的食物。」 利未 人就進了他的家。
10Micah said to him, “Dwell with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver per year, a suit of clothing, and your food.” So the Levite went in.
11利未 人情願與那人同住；那人看這少年人如自己的兒子一樣。
11The Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons.
12米迦 分派這少年的 利未 人作祭司，他就住在 米迦 的家裏。
12Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
13米迦 說：「現在我知道耶和華必賜福與我，因我有一個 利未 人作祭司。」
13Then Micah said, “Now I know that the LORD will do good to me, since I have a Levite as my priest.”
