    14Then the five men who had gone to scout out the land of Laish said to their fellow Danites, 'Do you know that in these houses there's an ephod, household gods, a carved image, and a cast idol? Now think about what you should do.'

    15So they turned aside there and went to the house of the young Levite, at Micah's house, and asked him how he was doing.

    16The six hundred men of the Danites, armed with their weapons of war, were standing at the entrance of the gate.

    17The five men who had gone to scout the land went inside and took the carved image, the ephod, the household gods, and the cast idol, while the priest stood at the entrance of the gate with the six hundred armed men.

    18When they entered Micah's house and took the carved image, the ephod, the household gods, and the cast idol, the priest said to them, 'What are you doing?'

    19They answered him, 'Be quiet! Put your hand over your mouth and come with us. Be a father and a priest to us. Isn’t it better for you to be a priest for a tribe and a clan in Israel rather than for one man's household?'

    20The priest was glad in his heart. He took the ephod, the household gods, and the carved image and went along with the people.

    21They turned and left, placing the children, the livestock, and their goods in front of them.

    22When they had gone some distance from Micah’s house, the men who lived near Micah gathered together and overtook the Danites.

    23They called out to the Danites, who turned to face them, and said to Micah, 'What’s the matter with you, that you have called your men together?'
