H3117
In those days
H4428
there was no king
H3478
in Israel:
H3117
and in those days
H7626
the tribe
H1839
of the Danites
H1245 [H8764]
sought
H5159
for themselves an inheritance
H3427 [H8800]
to dwell in;
H3117
for to that day
H5159
all their inheritance
H5307 [H8804]
had not fallen
H8432
to them among
H7626
the tribes
H3478
of Israel.
2
H1121
And the sons
H1835
of Dan
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H4940
of their family
H2568
five
H582
men
H7098
from their land,
H1121
men
H2428
of valour,
H6881
from Zorah,
H847
and from Eshtaol,
H7270 [H8763]
to spy
H776
out the land,
H2713 [H8800]
and to search
H559 [H8799]
it; and they said
H3212 [H8798]
to them, Go,
H2713 [H8798]
search
H776
the land:
H935 [H8799]
who when they came
H2022
to mount
H669
Ephraim,
H1004
to the house
H4318
of Micah,
H3885 [H8799]
they lodged there.
3
H1004
When they were by the house
H4318
of Micah,
H5234 [H8689]
they knew
H6963
the voice
H5288
of the young man
H3881
the Levite:
H5493 [H8799]
and they turned in
H559 [H8799]
there, and said
H935 [H8689]
to him, Who brought
H1988
thee here?
H6213 [H8802]
and what makest thou in this place? and what hast thou here?
4
H559 [H8799]
And he said
H2090
to them, Thus
H2090
and thus
H6213 [H8804]
dealeth
H4318
Micah
H7936 [H8799]
with me, and hath hired
H3548
me, and I am his priest.
5
H559 [H8799]
And they said
H7592 [H8798]
to him, Ask counsel,
H430
we pray thee, of God,
H3045 [H8799]
that we may know
H1870
whether our way
H1980 [H8802]
which we go
H6743 [H8686]
shall be prosperous.
6
H3548
And the priest
H559 [H8799]
said
H3212 [H8798]
to them, Go
H7965
in peace:
H5227
before
H3068
the LORD
H1870
is your way
H3212 [H8799]
in which ye go.
7
H2568
Then the five
H582
men
H3212 [H8799]
departed,
H935 [H8799]
and came
H3919
to Laish,
H7200 [H8799]
and saw
H5971
the people
H7130
that were in it,
H3427 [H8802]
how they dwelt
H983
careless,
H4941
after the manner
H6722
of the Zidonians,
H8252 [H8802]
quiet
H982 [H8802]
and secure;
H3423 H6114 [H8802]
and there was no magistrate
H776
in the land,
H3637 [H8688]
that might put them to shame
H1697
in any thing;
H7350
and they were far
H6722
from the Zidonians,
H1697
and had no business
H120
with any man.
8
H935 [H8799]
And they came
H251
to their brethren
H6881
to Zorah
H847
and Eshtaol:
H251
and their brethren
H559 [H8799]
said to them, What say ye?
9
H559 [H8799]
And they said,
H6965 [H8798]
Arise,
H5927 [H8799]
that we may go up
H7200 [H8804]
against them: for we have seen
H776
the land,
H3966
and, behold, it is very
H2896
good:
H2814 [H8688]
and are ye still?
H6101 [H8735]
be not slothful
H3212 [H8800]
to go,
H935 [H8800]
and to enter
H3423 [H8800]
to possess
H776
the land.
10
H935 [H8800]
When ye go,
H935 [H8799]
ye shall come
H5971
to a people
H982 [H8802]
secure,
H7342
and to a large
H776
land:
H430
for God
H5414 [H8804]
hath given
H3027
it into your hands;
H4725
a place
H4270
where there is no want
H1697
of any thing
H776
that is on the earth.
11
H5265 [H8799]
And there went
H4940
from there of the family
H1839
of the Danites,
H6881
out of Zorah
H847
and out of Eshtaol,
H8337
six
H3967
hundred
H376
men
H2296 [H8803]
appointed
H3627
with weapons
H4421
of war.
12
H5927 [H8799]
And they went up,
H2583 [H8799]
and encamped
H7157
in Kirjathjearim,
H3063
in Judah:
H7121 [H8804]
therefore they called
H4725
that place
H4265
Mahanehdan
H3117
to this day:
H310
behold, it is behind
H7157
Kirjathjearim.
13
H5674 [H8799]
And they passed
H2022
from there to mount
H669
Ephraim,
H935 [H8799]
and came
H1004
to the house
H4318
of Micah.
14
H6030 [H8799]
Then answered
H2568
the five
H582
men
H1980 [H8802]
that went
H7270 [H8763]
to spy out
H776
the land
H3919
of Laish,
H559 [H8799]
and said
H251
to their brethren,
H3045 [H8804]
Do ye know
H3426
that there is
H1004
in these houses
H646
an ephod,
H8655
and teraphim,
H6459
and a graven image,
H4541
and a molten image?
H3045 [H8798]
now therefore consider
H6213 [H8799]
what ye have to do.
15
H5493 [H8799]
And they turned
H935 [H8799]
aside there, and came
H1004
to the house
H5288
of the young man
H3881
the Levite,
H1004
even to the house
H4318
of Micah,
H7592 H7965 [H8799]
and greeted him.
16
H8337
And the six
H3967
hundred
H376
men
H2296 [H8803]
appointed
H3627
with their weapons
H4421
of war,
H1121
who were of the sons
H1835
of Dan,
H5324 [H8737]
stood
H6607
by the entrance
H8179
of the gate.
17
H2568
And the five
H582
men
H1980 [H8802]
that went
H7270 [H8763]
to spy out
H776
the land
H5927 [H8799]
went up,
H935 [H8804]
and came in
H3947 [H8804]
there, and took
H6459
the graven image,
H646
and the ephod,
H8655
and the teraphim,
H4541
and the molten image:
H3548
and the priest
H5324 [H8737]
stood
H6607
in the entrance
H8179
of the gate
H8337
with the six
H3967
hundred
H376
men
H2296 [H8803]
that were appointed
H3627
with weapons
H4421
of war.
18
H935 [H8804]
And these went
H4318
into Micah's
H1004
house,
H3947 [H8799]
and brought
H6459
the carved image,
H646
the ephod,
H8655
and the teraphim,
H4541
and the molten image.
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H3548
the priest
H6213 [H8802]
to them, What do ye?
19
H559 [H8799]
And they said
H2790 [H8685]
to him, Hold thy peace,
H7760 [H8798]
lay
H3027
thine hand
H6310
upon thy mouth,
H3212 [H8798]
and go
H1961 [H8800]
with us, and be to us
H1
a father
H3548
and a priest:
H2896
is it better
H3548
for thee to be a priest
H1004
to the house
H259
of one
H376
man,
H3548
or that thou shouldest be a priest
H7626
to a tribe
H4940
and a family
H3478
in Israel?
20
H3548
And the priest's
H3820
heart
H3190 [H8799]
was glad,
H3947 [H8799]
and he took
H646
the ephod,
H8655
and the teraphim,
H6459
and the graven image,
H935 [H8799]
and went in
H7130
the midst
H5971
of the people.
21
H6437 [H8799]
So they turned
H3212 [H8799]
and departed,
H7760 [H8799]
and put
H2945
the little ones
H4735
and the cattle
H3520
and the possessions
H6440
at the face of them.
22
H7368 [H8689]
And when they were a good way
H1004
from the house
H4318
of Micah,
H582
the men
H1004
that were in the houses
H4318
near to Micah's
H1004
house
H2199 [H8738]
were gathered together,
H1692 [H8686]
and overtook
H1121
the sons
H1835
of Dan.
23
H7121 [H8799]
And they called
H1121
to the sons
H1835
of Dan.
H5437 [H8686]
And they turned
H6440
their faces,
H559 [H8799]
and said
H4318
to Micah,
H2199 [H8738]
What aileth thee, that thou comest with such a company?
24
H559 [H8799]
And he said,
H3947 [H8804]
Ye have taken away
H430
my gods
H6213 [H8804]
which I made,
H3548
and the priest,
H3212 [H8799]
and ye have gone away:
H559 [H8799]
and what have I more? and what is this that ye say to me, What aileth thee?
25
H1121
And the sons
H1835
of Dan
H559 [H8799]
said
H6963
to him, Let not thy voice
H8085 [H8686]
be heard
H4751
among us, lest bitter
H5315
of breath
H582
fellows
H6293 [H8799]
rush
H622 [H8804]
upon thee, and thou lose
H5315
thy life,
H5315
with the lives
H1004
of thy household.
26
H1121
And the sons
H1835
of Dan
H3212 H1870 [H8799]
departed:
H4318
and when Micah
H7200 [H8799]
saw
H2389
that they were too strong
H6437 [H8799]
for him, he turned
H7725 [H8799]
and went back
H1004
to his house.
27
H3947 [H8804]
And they took
H4318
the things which Micah
H6213 [H8804]
had made,
H3548
and the priest
H935 [H8799]
which he had, and came
H3919
to Laish,
H5971
to a people
H8252 [H8802]
that were at quiet
H982 [H8802]
and secure:
H5221 [H8686]
and they smote
H6310
them with the edge
H2719
of the sword,
H8313 [H8804]
and burnt
H5892
the city
H784
with fire.
28
H5337 [H8688]
And there was no deliverer,
H7350
because it was far
H6721
from Zidon,
H1697
and they had no business
H120
with any man;
H6010
and it was in the valley
H1050
that lieth by Bethrehob.
H1129 [H8799]
And they built
H5892
a city,
H3427 [H8799]
and dwelt in it.
29
H7121 [H8799]
And they called
H8034
the name
H5892
of the city
H1835
Dan,
H8034
after the name
H1835
of Dan
H1
their father,
H3205 [H8795]
who was born
H3478
to Israel:
H199
but
H8034
the name
H5892
of the city
H3919
was Laish
H7223
at the first.
30
H1121
And the sons
H1835
of Dan
H6965 [H8686]
set up
H6459
the graven image:
H3083
and Jonathan,
H1121
the son
H1647
of Gershom,
H1121
the son
H4519
of Manasseh,
H1121
he and his sons
H3548
were priests
H7626
to the tribe
H1839
of Dan
H3117
until the day
H1540 [H8800]
of the captivity
H776
of the land.
