Qu'as-tu, que tu cries ainsi? Il répondit: Vous avez enlevé mes dieux, que j'avais faits, ainsi que le sacrificateur, et vous êtes partis. Que me reste-t-il? Et comment me dites-vous: Qu'as-tu?
Il répondit: Mes dieux que j'avais faits, vous les avez enlevés avec le prêtre et vous êtes partis: que me reste-t-il? Comment donc pouvez-vous me dire: Qu'as-tu?
Il répondit : Vous avez enlevé mes dieux que j'avais faits, vous [avez pris] le Sacrificateur, et vous en êtes allés. Et que me reste-t-il? Comment donc me dites-vous : Qu'as-tu?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he said, ye have taken away my gods that I made,.... Meaning his graven and molten images, which he had made, or caused to be made, out of the silver his mother gave him, or however had paid for the making of; and though this might be an argument proving his right unto them, it was a very poor one in favour of their deity; and it is astonishing he should call them gods he knew the making of, and who could not save themselves from being stolen and carried off:
and the priest and ye are gone away; they had not only took away his gods, but the priest that sacrificed for him unto them, and assisted him in acts of devotion to them, or to God by them, and were gone off with both:
and what have I more? signifying, that all he had in the world, wife, children, and substance, were all nothing in comparison of these; there was nothing he so much valued as he did these, nor could he take any pleasure or comfort in anything, being deprived of them, so much was his heart set on them:
and what is this that ye say unto me, what aileth thee? what a question is this you ask, as if the injury done me was none at all, and that I had no reason to complain; that it was a trifling insignificant thing, worthy of no regard, when it was a matter of the greater moment and importance to him in life.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Judges 18:24. Ye have taken away my gods — As Micah was a worshipper of the true God, as we have seen, he cannot mean any kind of idols by the word ×להי elohai here used. He undoubtedly means those representations of Divine things, and symbols of the Divine presence such as the teraphim, ephod, c. for they are all evidently included under the word elohai, which we translate my gods.
