Judges 17:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ There was also another young man of Bethlehem Juda, of the kindred thereof: and he was a Levite, and dwelt there.

⁸ Now he went out from the city of Bethlehem, and desired to sojourn wheresoever he should find it convenient for him. And when he was come to mount Ephraim, as he was on his journey, and had turned aside a little into the house of Michas,

⁹ He was asked by him whence he came. And he answered: I am a Levite of Bethlehem Juda, and I am going to dwell where I can, and where I shall find a place to my advantage.
