    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?'

    24Micah replied, 'You’ve taken my gods that I made and my priest and gone away! What else do I have? How can you ask me, “What’s the matter with you?”'

    25The Danites said to him, 'Don’t raise your voice with us, or some bitter-tempered men might attack you, and you and your family could lose your lives.'

    26So the Danites continued on their way, and when Micah saw that they were stronger than he was, he turned and went back to his house.

    27The Danites took what Micah had made, along with his priest, and came to Laish, to a peaceful and unsuspecting people. They struck them down with the sword and burned the city with fire.

    10When you arrive, you will find a secure and unsuspecting people. The land is spacious, for God has given it into your hands—a place lacking nothing that is good.

    11So six hundred men from the Danite clan left Zorah and Eshtaol, armed with weapons for battle.

    12They went up and encamped in Kiriath-jearim in Judah. That is why to this day the place is called Mahaneh Dan (the camp of Dan), located west of Kiriath-jearim.

    13From there they continued on to the hill country of Ephraim and arrived at Micah's house.

    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.

    1In those days, Israel had no king, and during that period, the tribe of Dan was looking for a place to settle because they had not yet received an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.

    2The Danites sent five men from their clans, strong and valiant men from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and explore it. They said to them, 'Go and explore the land.' When they came to the hill country of Ephraim, to Micah's house, they stayed there for the night.

    3As they were near Micah's house, they recognized the voice of the young Levite. They turned aside and said to him, 'Who brought you here? What are you doing in this place? And what is your purpose here?'
