Judges 18:7-14

7Then the fiveH2568 menH376 departedH935, and cameH935 to Laish, and sawH7200 the peopleH5971 that were therein, howH834 they dweltH3427 in securityH983, afterH776 the mannerH1697 of the Zidonians, quietH8252 and secureH982; for there was noneH369 in the landH776, possessing authorityH1697, that might putH935 them to shameH3637 in anyH376 thingH1697, and they were farH7350 from the Zidonians, and had noH369 dealingsH1697 with anyH376 manH376.

8And they cameH935 unto their brethrenH251 to ZorahH6881 and EshtaolH847: and their brethrenH251 saidH559 unto them, WhatH4100 sayH559 ye?

9And they saidH559, AriseH6965, and letH408 usH5921 goH935 upH5927 againstH5921 them: for weH3588 have seenH7200 the landH776, and, beholdH2009, it is veryH3966 goodH2896: and are ye stillH2814? be notH408 slofthful to goH935 and to enterH935 in to possessH3423 the landH776.

10When ye goH935, ye shall comeH935 unto a peopleH5971 secureH982, and the landH776 is large: for GodH430 hath givenH5414 it intoH413 your handH3027; a placeH4725 whereH834 there is noH369 wantH4270 of anyH3605 thingH1697 that is in the earthH776.

11And there setH5265 forthH5265 from thence of the familyH4940 of the DanitesH1839, outH5265 of ZorahH6881 and outH5265 of EshtaolH847, sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 girt with weaponsH3627 of warH4421.

12And they wentH5927 upH5927, and encampedH2583 in Kiriath-jearimH7157, in JudahH3063: wherefore they calledH7121 that placeH4725 Mahaneh-danH4265 unto this dayH3117: beholdH2009, it is behindH310 Kirjath-jearim.

13And they passedH5674 thence unto the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669, and cameH935 unto the houseH1004 of MicahH4318.

14Then answeredH559 the fiveH2568 menH376 that wentH1980 to spyH7270 outH3045 the countryH776 of Laish, and saidH559 unto their brethrenH251, DoH6213 ye knowH3045 that there is in theseH428 housesH1004 an ephodH646, and teraphimH8655, and a gravenH6459 imageH6459, and a molten imageH6459? nowH6258 therefore considerH3045 whatH4100 ye have to doH6213.
