Judges 18:20 in Context — Judges 18

18 Entrando pues aquellos en la casa de Michâs, tomaron la imagen de talla, el ephod, y el teraphim, y la imagen de fundición. Y el sacerdote les dijo: ¿Qué hacéis vosotros?

19 Y ellos le respondieron: Calla, pon la mano sobre tu boca, y vente con nosotros, para que seas nuestro padre y sacerdote. ¿Es mejor que seas tú sacerdote en casa de un hombre solo, que de una tribu y familia de Israel?

20 Y alegróse el corazón del sacerdote; el cual tomando el ephod y el teraphim, y la imagen, vínose entre la gente.

21 Y ellos tornaron, y fuéronse; y pusieron los niños, y el ganado y el bagaje, delante de sí.

22 Y cuando ya se habían alejado de la casa de Michâs, los hombres que [habitaban] en las casas cercanas á la casa de Michâs, se juntaron, y siguieron á los hijos de Dan.
