Judges 18:1-4

LEB(i) 1 In those days there was no king in Israel. And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking territory for itself to live in, because until that day it had not been allotted territory among the tribes of Israel. 2 The descendants* of Dan sent from the whole number of their clan five capable men* from Zorah and Eshtaol to spy out the land and to explore it. And they said to them, "Go, explore the land." And they went to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and they spent the night there.* 3 While they were with the house of Micah, they recognized the voice of the young Levite, and they turned aside there and said to him, "Who brought you here? What are you doing in this place, and what is your business here?"* 4 And he said to them, "Micah did such and such for me and hired me, and I became his priest."
