وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ جَبَلِ أَفْرَايِمَ ٱسْمُهُ مِيخَا. ١ 1
There was a man of the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Micah.
فَقَالَ لِأُمِّهِ: «إِنَّ ٱلْأَلْفَ وَٱلْمِئَةَ شَاقِلِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ ٱلَّتِي أُخِذَتْ مِنْكِ، وَأَنْتِ لَعَنْتِ وَقُلْتِ أَيْضًا فِي أُذُنَيَّ. هُوَذَا ٱلْفِضَّةُ مَعِي. أَنَا أَخَذْتُهَا». فَقَالَتْ أُمُّهُ: «مُبَارَكٌ أَنْتَ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَا ٱبْنِي». ٢ 2
And he 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, look, the silver is with me; I took it, but now I will restore it to you." And his mother said, "Blessed be my son by Jehovah."
فَرَدَّ ٱلْأَلْفَ وَٱلْمِئَةَ شَاقِلِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ لِأُمِّهِ. فَقَالَتْ أُمُّهُ: «تَقْدِيسًا قَدَّسْتُ ٱلْفِضَّةَ لِلرَّبِّ مِنْ يَدِي لِٱبْنِي لِعَمَلِ تِمْثَالٍ مَنْحُوتٍ وَتِمْثَالٍ مَسْبُوكٍ. فَٱلْآنَ أَرُدُّهَا لَكَ». ٣ 3
And he restored the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother; and his mother said, "I most certainly dedicate the silver to Jehovah from my hand for my son, to make an engraved image and a molten image."
فَرَدَّ ٱلْفِضَّةَ لِأُمِّهِ، فَأَخَذَتْ أُمُّهُ مِئَتَيْ شَاقِلِ فِضَّةٍ وَأَعْطَتْهَا لِلصَّائِغِ فَعَمِلَهَا تِمْثَالًا مَنْحُوتًا وَتِمْثَالًا مَسْبُوكًا. وَكَانَا فِي بَيْتِ مِيخَا. ٤ 4
When he restored the money to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made of it an engraved image and a molten image: and it was in the house of Micah.
وَكَانَ لِلرَّجُلِ مِيخَا بَيْتٌ لِلْآلِهَةِ، فَعَمِلَ أَفُودًا وَتَرَافِيمَ وَمَلَأَ يَدَ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ بَنِيهِ فَصَارَ لَهُ كَاهِنًا. ٥ 5
The man Micah had a house of God, and he made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.
وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَلِكٌ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. كَانَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ يَعْمَلُ مَا يَحْسُنُ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ. ٦ 6
In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
وَكَانَ غُلَامٌ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمِ يَهُوذَا مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ يَهُوذَا، وَهُوَ لَاوِيٌّ مُتَغَرِّبٌ هُنَاكَ. ٧ 7
There was a young man out of Bethlehem Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he lived there.
فَذَهَبَ ٱلرَّجُلُ مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمِ يَهُوذَا لِكَيْ يَتَغَرَّبَ حَيْثُمَا ٱتَّفَقَ. فَأَتَى إِلَى جَبَلِ أَفْرَايِمَ إِلَى بَيْتِ مِيخَا وَهُوَ آخِذٌ فِي طَرِيقِهِ. ٨ 8
The 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.
فَقَالَ لَهُ مِيخَا: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَتَيْتَ؟» فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَنَا لَاوِيٌّ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمِ يَهُوذَا، وَأَنَا ذَاهِبٌ لِكَيْ أَتَغَرَّبَ حَيْثُمَا ٱتَّفَقَ». ٩ 9
Micah said to him, "Where did you come from?" He said to him, "I am a Levite of Bethlehem Judah, and I am going to settle wherever I may find a place."
فَقَالَ لَهُ مِيخَا: «أَقِمْ عِنْدِي وَكُنْ لِي أَبًا وَكَاهِنًا، وَأَنَا أُعْطِيكَ عَشَرَةَ شَوَاقِلِ فِضَّةٍ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ، وَحُلَّةَ ثِيَابٍ، وَقُوتَكَ». فَذَهَبَ مَعَهُ ٱللَّاوِيُّ. ١٠ 10
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 by the year, and a suit of clothing, and your food." So the Levite went in.
فَرَضِيَ ٱللَّاوِيُّ بِٱلْإِقَامَةِ مَعَ ٱلرَّجُلِ، وَكَانَ ٱلْغُلَامُ لَهُ كَأَحَدِ بَنِيهِ. ١١ 11
The Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons.
فَمَلَأَ مِيخَا يَدَ ٱللَّاوِيِّ، وَكَانَ ٱلْغُلَامُ لَهُ كَاهِنًا، وَكَانَ فِي بَيْتِ مِيخَا. ١٢ 12
Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
فَقَالَ مِيخَا: «ٱلْآنَ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يُحْسِنُ إِلَيَّ، لِأَنَّهُ صَارَ لِيَ ٱللَّاوِيُّ كَاهِنًا». ١٣ 13
Then Micah said, "Now I know that Jehovah will do good to me, seeing I have a Levite as my priest."
