NETBible

He told them what Micah had done for him, saying, “He hired me and I became his priest.”

NET Notes

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.
