KJV ¹ And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Micah.

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

KJV ² And he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from thee, about which thou cursedst, and spakest of also in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be thou of the LORD, my son.

LSG 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 !

KJV ³ And when he had restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver unto the LORD from my hand for my son, to make a graven image and a molten image: now therefore I will restore it unto thee.

LSG 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.

KJV ⁴ Yet he restored the money unto his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made thereof a graven image and a molten image: and they were in the house of Micah.

LSG 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.

KJV ⁵ And the man Micah had an house of gods, and made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.

LSG 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.

KJV ⁶ In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.

LSG ⁶ En ce temps-là, il n'y avait point de roi en Israël. Chacun faisait ce qui lui semblait bon.
