Judges 18:4-11

⁴And he said to them, Thus and thus did Michaias to me, and he hired me, and I became his priest.

⁵And they said to him, Enquire now of God, and we shall know whether our way will prosper, on which we are going.

⁶And the priest said to them, Go in peace; your way in which you° go, is before the Lord.

⁷And the five men went on, and came to Laisa; and they saw the people in the midst of it dwelling securely, at ease as is the manner of the Sidonians, and there is no one perverting or shaming a matter in the land, no heir extorting treasures; and they are far from the Sidonians, and they have no intercourse with any one.

⁸And the five men came to their brethren to Saraa and Esthaol, and said to their brethren, Why sit you° here idle?

⁹And they said, Arise, and let us go up against them, for we have seen the land, and, behold, it is very good, yet you° are still: delay not to go, an to enter in to possess the land.

¹⁰And whenever you° shall go, you° shall come in upon a people secure, and the land is extensive, for God has given it into your hand; a place where there is no lack of anything that the earth affords.

¹¹And there departed thence of the families of Dan, from Saraa and from Esthaol, six hundred men, girded with weapons of war.
