Judges 18:15

18:15 They stopped ³  there, went inside the young Levite’s house (which belonged to Micah), ⁴  and asked him how he was doing. ⁵ 

¹ tn Heb “the men who were in the houses near Micah’s house.”

² tn Heb “He said to them, ‘Such and such Micah has done for me.’” Though the statement is introduced and presented, at least in part, as a direct quotation (note especially “for me”), the phrase “such and such” appears to be the narrator’s condensed version of what the Levite really said.

³ tn Heb “turned aside.”

⁴ tn Heb “Micah’s house.”

⁵ tn Heb “they asked him concerning peace.”
