Judges 17:8 in Context — Judges 17
6 En ce temps-là, il n’y avait point de roi en Israël. Chacun faisait ce qui lui semblait bon.
7 Il y avait un jeune homme de Bethléhem de Juda, de la famille de Juda; il était Lévite, et il séjournait là.
8 Cet homme partit de la ville de Bethléhem de Juda, pour chercher une demeure qui lui convînt. En poursuivant son chemin, il arriva dans la montagne d’Éphraïm jusqu’à la maison de Mica.
9 Mica lui dit: D’où viens-tu? Il lui répondit: Je suis Lévite, de Bethléhem de Juda, et je voyage pour chercher une demeure qui me convienne.
10 Mica lui dit: Reste avec moi; tu me serviras de père et de prêtre, et je te donnerai dix sicles d’argent par année, les vêtements dont tu auras besoin, et ton entretien. Et le Lévite entra.
