[1]In those daysH3117 there was no kingH4428 in IsraelH3478: and in those daysH3117 the tribeH7626 of the DanitesH1839 soughtH1245[H8764] them an inheritanceH5159 to dwell inH3427[H8800]; for unto that dayH3117 all their inheritanceH5159 had not fallenH5307[H8804] unto them amongH8432 the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478. [No book]
[2]And the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 sentH7971[H8799] of their familyH4940 fiveH2568 menH582 from their coastsH7098, menH1121 of valourH2428, from ZorahH6881, and from EshtaolH847, to spyH7270[H8763] out the landH776, and to searchH2713[H8800] it; and they saidH559[H8799] unto them, GoH3212[H8798], searchH2713[H8798] the landH776: who when they cameH935[H8799] to mountH2022 EphraimH669, to the houseH1004 of MicahH4318, they lodgedH3885 thereH8799. [No book]
[3]When they were by the houseH1004 of MicahH4318, they knewH5234[H8689] the voiceH6963 of the young manH5288 the LeviteH3881: and they turned inH5493[H8799] thither, and saidH559[H8799] unto him, Who broughtH935[H8689] thee hitherH1988? and what makestH6213 thou in this place? and what hast thou hereH8802? [No book]
[4]And he saidH559[H8799] unto them, ThusH2090 and thusH2090 dealethH6213[H8804] MicahH4318 with me, and hath hiredH7936[H8799] me, and I am his priestH3548. [No book]
[5]And they saidH559[H8799] unto him, Ask counselH7592[H8798], we pray thee, of GodH430, that we may knowH3045[H8799] whether our wayH1870 which we goH1980[H8802] shall be prosperousH6743.[H8686] [No book]
[6]And the priestH3548 saidH559[H8799] unto them, GoH3212[H8798] in peaceH7965: beforeH5227 the LORDH3068 is your wayH1870 wherein ye goH3212.[H8799] [No book]
[7]Then the fiveH2568 menH582 departedH3212[H8799], and cameH935[H8799] to LaishH3919, and sawH7200[H8799] the peopleH5971 that were thereinH7130, how they dweltH3427[H8802] carelessH983, after the mannerH4941 of the ZidoniansH6722, quietH8252[H8802] and secureH982[H8802]; and there was no magistrateH3423[H8802][H6114] in the landH776, that might put them to shameH3637[H8688] in any thingH1697; and they were farH7350 from the ZidoniansH6722, and had no businessH1697 with any manH120. [No book]
[8]And they cameH935[H8799] unto their brethrenH251 to ZorahH6881 and EshtaolH847: and their brethrenH251 saidH559 unto them, What say yeH8799? [No book]
[9]And they saidH559[H8799], AriseH6965[H8798], that we may go upH5927[H8799] against them: for we have seenH7200[H8804] the landH776, and, behold, it is veryH3966 goodH2896: and are ye stillH2814[H8688]? be not slothfulH6101[H8735] to goH3212[H8800], and to enterH935[H8800] to possessH3423[H8800] the landH776. [No book]
[10]When ye goH935[H8800], ye shall comeH935[H8799] unto a peopleH5971 secureH982[H8802], and to a largeH7342 landH776: for GodH430 hath givenH5414[H8804] it into your handsH3027; a placeH4725 where there is no wantH4270 of any thingH1697 that is in the earthH776. [No book]
[11]And there wentH5265[H8799] from thence of the familyH4940 of the DanitesH1839, out of ZorahH6881 and out of EshtaolH847, sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 appointedH2296[H8803] with weaponsH3627 of warH4421. [No book]
[12]And they went upH5927[H8799], and pitchedH2583[H8799] in KirjathjearimH7157, in JudahH3063: wherefore they calledH7121[H8804] that placeH4725 MahanehdanH4265 unto this dayH3117: behold, it is behindH310 KirjathjearimH7157. [No book]
[13]And they passedH5674[H8799] thence unto mountH2022 EphraimH669, and cameH935[H8799] unto the houseH1004 of MicahH4318. [No book]
[14]Then answeredH6030[H8799] the fiveH2568 menH582 that wentH1980[H8802] to spy outH7270[H8763] the countryH776 of LaishH3919, and saidH559[H8799] unto their brethrenH251, Do ye knowH3045[H8804] that there isH3426 in these housesH1004 an ephodH646, and teraphimH8655, and a graven imageH6459, and a molten imageH4541? now therefore considerH3045[H8798] what ye have to doH6213.[H8799] [No book]
[15]And they turnedH5493[H8799] thitherward, and cameH935[H8799] to the houseH1004 of the young manH5288 the LeviteH3881, even unto the houseH1004 of MicahH4318, and salutedH7592[H8799] himH7965. [No book]
[16]And the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 appointedH2296[H8803] with their weaponsH3627 of warH4421, which were of the childrenH1121 of DanH1835, stoodH5324[H8737] by the enteringH6607 of the gateH8179. [No book]
[17]And the fiveH2568 menH582 that wentH1980[H8802] to spy outH7270[H8763] the landH776 went upH5927[H8799], and came inH935[H8804] thither, and tookH3947[H8804] the graven imageH6459, and the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the molten imageH4541: and the priestH3548 stoodH5324[H8737] in the enteringH6607 of the gateH8179 with the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were appointedH2296[H8803] with weaponsH3627 of warH4421. [No book]
[18]And these wentH935[H8804] into Micah'sH4318 houseH1004, and fetchedH3947[H8799] the carved imageH6459, the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the molten imageH4541. Then saidH559[H8799] the priestH3548 unto them, What doH6213 yeH8802? [No book]
[19]And they saidH559[H8799] unto him, Hold thy peaceH2790[H8685], layH7760[H8798] thine handH3027 upon thy mouthH6310, and goH3212[H8798] with us, and be to usH1961[H8800] a fatherH1 and a priestH3548: is it betterH2896 for thee to be a priestH3548 unto the houseH1004 of oneH259 manH376, or that thou be a priestH3548 unto a tribeH7626 and a familyH4940 in IsraelH3478? [No book]
[20]And the priest'sH3548 heartH3820 was gladH3190[H8799], and he tookH3947[H8799] the ephodH646, and the teraphimH8655, and the graven imageH6459, and went inH935[H8799] the midstH7130 of the peopleH5971. [No book]
[21]So they turnedH6437[H8799] and departedH3212[H8799], and putH7760[H8799] the little onesH2945 and the cattleH4735 and the carriageH3520 before themH6440. [No book]
[22]And when they were a good wayH7368[H8689] from the houseH1004 of MicahH4318, the menH582 that were in the housesH1004 near to Micah'sH4318 houseH1004 were gathered togetherH2199[H8738], and overtookH1692[H8686] the childrenH1121 of DanH1835. [No book]
[23]And they criedH7121[H8799] unto the childrenH1121 of DanH1835. And they turnedH5437[H8686] their facesH6440, and saidH559[H8799] unto MicahH4318, What aileth thee, that thou comest with such a companyH2199?[H8738] [No book]
[24]And he saidH559[H8799], Ye have taken awayH3947[H8804] my godsH430 which I madeH6213[H8804], and the priestH3548, and ye are gone awayH3212[H8799]: and what have I more? and what is this that ye sayH559 unto me, What aileth theeH8799? [No book]
[25]And the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 saidH559[H8799] unto him, Let not thy voiceH6963 be heardH8085[H8686] among us, lest angryH4751[H5315] fellowsH582 runH6293[H8799] upon thee, and thou loseH622[H8804] thy lifeH5315, with the livesH5315 of thy householdH1004. [No book]
[26]And the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 wentH3212[H8799] their wayH1870: and when MicahH4318 sawH7200[H8799] that they were too strongH2389 for him, he turnedH6437[H8799] and went backH7725[H8799] unto his houseH1004. [No book]
[27]And they tookH3947[H8804] the things which MicahH4318 had madeH6213[H8804], and the priestH3548 which he had, and cameH935[H8799] unto LaishH3919, unto a peopleH5971 that were at quietH8252[H8802] and secureH982[H8802]: and they smoteH5221[H8686] them with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, and burntH8313[H8804] the cityH5892 with fireH784. [No book]
[28]And there was no delivererH5337[H8688], because it was farH7350 from ZidonH6721, and they had no businessH1697 with any manH120; and it was in the valleyH6010 that lieth by BethrehobH1050. And they builtH1129[H8799] a cityH5892, and dweltH3427 thereinH8799. [No book]
[29]And they calledH7121[H8799] the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 DanH1835, after the nameH8034 of DanH1835 their fatherH1, who was bornH3205[H8795] unto IsraelH3478: howbeitH199 the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was LaishH3919 at the firstH7223. [No book]
[30]And the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 set upH6965[H8686] the graven imageH6459: and JonathanH3083, the sonH1121 of GershomH1647, the sonH1121 of ManassehH4519, he and his sonsH1121 were priestsH3548 to the tribeH7626 of DanH1839 until the dayH3117 of the captivityH1540[H8800] of the landH776. [No book]
[31]And they set them upH7760[H8799] Micah'sH4318 graven imageH6459, which he madeH6213[H8804], all the timeH3117 that the houseH1004 of GodH430 was in ShilohH7887. [No book]
