Judges 17:3 in Context — Judges 17

1 Il y avait un homme de la montagne d’Éphraïm, nommé Mica.

2 Il dit à sa mère: Les mille et cent sicles d’argent qu’on t’a pris, et pour lesquels tu as fait des imprécations même à mes oreilles, voici, cet argent est entre mes mains, c’est moi qui l’avais pris. Et sa mère dit: Béni soit mon fils par l’Éternel!

3 Il rendit à sa mère les mille et cent sicles d’argent; et sa mère dit: Je consacre de ma main cet argent à l’Éternel, afin d’en faire pour mon fils une image taillée et une image en fonte; et c’est ainsi que je te le rendrai.

4 Il rendit à sa mère l’argent. Sa mère prit deux cents sicles d’argent. Et elle donna l’argent au fondeur, qui en fit une image taillée et une image en fonte. On les plaça dans la maison de Mica.

5 Ce Mica avait une maison de Dieu; il fit un éphod et des théraphim, et il consacra l’un de ses fils, qui lui servit de prêtre.
