Judges 18:17-19
New International Reader's Version

18 When the five men went into Micah’s house and took all those things, the priest spoke to them. He asked, “What are you doing?”
19 They answered him, “Be quiet! Don’t say a word. Come with us. Be our father and priest. You can serve a whole tribe and family group in Israel as our priest. Isn’t that better than serving just one man’s family?”
