Judges 18:19-21

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁹ And they answered him, “Hold your peace. Lay your hand upon your mouth and come with us to be our father and priest. Which is better: that you should be a priest to the house of one man or that you should be a priest to a tribe and to a family in Israel?”

²⁰ And the priest’s heart was glad. And he took the ephod and the teraphim and the graven image and went among the people.

²¹ And they turned and departed and put the children and the cattle and the substance before them.
