⮜ Judges 17 | Judges 19 ⮞

1 In those days there was no king in Israel. In those days the tribe of the Danites sought an inheritance to dwell in; for to that day, their inheritance had not fallen to them among the tribes of Israel. Judges 18:1WEB
2 The children of Dan sent five men of their family from their whole number, men of valor, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land and to search it. They said to them, “Go, explore the land!” They came to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there. Judges 18:2WEB
3 When they were by the house of Micah, they knew the voice of the young man the Levite; so they went over there and said to him, “Who brought you here? What do you do in this place? What do you have here?” Judges 18:3WEB
4 He said to them, “Thus and thus has Micah dealt with me, and he has hired me, and I have become his priest.” Judges 18:4WEB
5 They said to him, “Please ask counsel of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous.” Judges 18:5WEB
6 The priest said to them, “Go in peace. Your way in which you go is before YHWH.” Judges 18:6WEB
7 Then the five men departed and came to Laish and saw the people who were there, how they lived in safety, in the way of the Sidonians, quiet and secure; for there was no one in the land possessing authority, that might put them to shame in anything, and they were far from the Sidonians, and had no dealings with anyone else. Judges 18:7WEB
8 They came to their brothers at Zorah and Eshtaol; and their brothers asked them, “What do you say?” Judges 18:8WEB
9 They said, “Arise, and let’s go up against them; for we have seen the land, and behold, it is very good. Do you stand still? Don’t be slothful to go and to enter in to possess the land. Judges 18:9WEB
10 When you go, you will come to an unsuspecting people, and the land is large; for God has given it into your hand, a place where there is no lack of anything that is in the earth.” Judges 18:10WEB
11 The family of the Danites set out from Zorah and Eshtaol with six hundred men armed with weapons of war. Judges 18:11WEB
12 They went up and encamped in Kiriath Jearim in Judah. Therefore they call that place Mahaneh Dan to this day. Behold, it is behind Kiriath Jearim. Judges 18:12WEB
13 They passed from there to the hill country of Ephraim, and came to the house of Micah. Judges 18:13WEB
14 Then the five men who went to spy out the country of Laish answered and said to their brothers, “Do you know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a carved image, and a molten image? Now therefore consider what you have to do.” Judges 18:14WEB
15 They went over there and came to the house of the young Levite man, even to the house of Micah, and asked him how he was doing. Judges 18:15WEB
16 The six hundred men armed with their weapons of war, who were of the children of Dan, stood by the entrance of the gate. Judges 18:16WEB
17 The five men who went to spy out the land went up, and came in there, and took the engraved image, the ephod, the teraphim, and the molten image; and the priest stood by the entrance of the gate with the six hundred men armed with weapons of war. Judges 18:17WEB
18 When these went into Micah’s house, and took the engraved image, the ephod, the teraphim, and the molten image, the priest said to them, “What are you doing?” Judges 18:18WEB
19 They said to him, “Hold your peace, put your hand on your mouth, and go with us. Be a father and a priest to us. Is it better for you to be priest to the house of one man, or to be priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?” Judges 18:19WEB
20 The priest’s heart was glad, and he took the ephod, the teraphim, and the engraved image, and went with the people. Judges 18:20WEB
21 So they turned and departed, and put the little ones, the livestock, and the goods before them. Judges 18:21WEB
22 When they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men who were in the houses near Micah’s house gathered together and overtook the children of Dan. Judges 18:22WEB
23 As they called to the children of Dan, they turned their faces, and said to Micah, “What ails you, that you come with such a company?” Judges 18:23WEB
24 He said, “You have taken away my gods which I made, and the priest, and have gone away! What more do I have? How can you ask me, ‘What ails you?’” Judges 18:24WEB
25 The children of Dan said to him, “Don’t let your voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows fall on you, and you lose your life, with the lives of your household.” Judges 18:25WEB
26 The children of Dan went their way; and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back to his house. Judges 18:26WEB
27 They took that which Micah had made, and the priest whom he had, and came to Laish, to a people quiet and unsuspecting, and struck them with the edge of the sword; then they burned the city with fire. Judges 18:27WEB
28 There was no deliverer, because it was far from Sidon, and they had no dealings with anyone else; and it was in the valley that lies by Beth Rehob. They built the city and lived in it. Judges 18:28WEB
29 They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel; however the name of the city used to be Laish. Judges 18:29WEB
30 The children of Dan set up for themselves the engraved image; and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, and his sons were priests to the tribe of the Danites until the day of the captivity of the land. Judges 18:30WEB
31 So they set up for themselves Micah’s engraved image which he made, and it remained all the time that God’s house was in Shiloh. Judges 18:31WEB
