절	Good News Translation (1992)	King James Version
1	Micah and the Tribe of Dan There was no king in Israel at that time. In those days the tribe of Dan was looking for territory to claim and settle in because they had not yet received any land of their own among the tribes of Israel.	In those days there was no king in Israel: and in those days the tribe of the Danites sought them an inheritance to dwell in; for unto that day all their inheritance had not fallen unto them among the tribes of Israel.
2	So the people of Dan chose five qualified men out of all the families in the tribe and sent them from the towns of Zorah and Eshtaol with instructions to explore the land and spy on it. When they arrived in the hill country of Ephraim, they stayed at Micah's house.	And the children of Dan sent of their family five men from their coasts, men of valour, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land, and to search it; and they said unto them, Go, search the land: who when they came to mount Ephraim, to the house of Micah, they lodged there.
3	While they were there, they recognized the accent of the young Levite, so they went up to him and asked, “What are you doing here? Who brought you here?”	When they were by the house of Micah, they knew the voice of the young man the Levite: and they turned in thither, and said unto him, Who brought thee hither? and what makest thou in this place? and what hast thou here?
4	He answered, “I have an arrangement with Micah, who pays me to serve as his priest.”	And he said unto them, Thus and thus dealeth Micah with me, and hath hired me, and I am his priest.
5	They said to him, “Please ask God if we are going to be successful on our trip.”	And they said unto him, Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous.
6	The priest answered, “You have nothing to worry about. The Lord is taking care of you on this trip.”	And the priest said unto them, Go in peace: before the Lord is your way wherein ye go.
7	So the five men left and went to the town of Laish. They saw how the people there lived in security like the Sidonians. They were a peaceful, quiet people, with no argument with anyone; they had all they needed. They lived far away from the Sidonians and had no dealings with any other people.	Then the five men departed, and came to Laish, and saw the people that were therein, how they dwelt careless, after the manner of the Zidonians, quiet and secure; and there was no magistrate in the land, that might put them to shame in any thing; and they were far from the Zidonians, and had no business with any man.
8	When the five men returned to Zorah and Eshtaol, the people asked them what they had found out.	And they came unto their brethren to Zorah and Eshtaol: and their brethren said unto them, What say ye?
9	“Come on,” they replied. “Let's attack Laish. We saw the land, and it's very good. Don't stay here doing nothing; hurry! Go on in and take it over!	And they said, Arise, that we may go up against them: for we have seen the land, and, behold, it is very good: and are ye still? be not slothful to go, and to enter to possess the land.
10	When you get there, you will find that the people don't suspect a thing. It is a big country; it has everything a person could want, and God has given it to you.”	When ye go, ye shall come unto a people secure, and to a large land: for God hath given it into your hands; a place where there is no want of any thing that is in the earth.
11	So six hundred men from the tribe of Dan left Zorah and Eshtaol, ready for battle.	And there went from thence of the family of the Danites, out of Zorah and out of Eshtaol, six hundred men appointed with weapons of war.
12	They went up and camped west of Kiriath Jearim in Judah. That is why the place is still called Camp of Dan.	And they went up, and pitched in Kirjath–jearim, in Judah: wherefore they called that place Mahaneh–dan unto this day: behold, it is behind Kirjath–jearim.
13	They went on from there and came to Micah's house in the hill country of Ephraim.	And they passed thence unto mount Ephraim, and came unto the house of Micah.
14	Then the five men who had gone to spy on the country around Laish said to their companions, “Did you know that here in one of these houses there is a wooden idol covered with silver? There are also other idols and an ephod. What do you think we should do?”	Then answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto their brethren, Do ye know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image? now therefore consider what ye have to do.
15	So they went into Micah's house, where the young Levite lived, and asked the Levite how he was getting along.	And they turned thitherward, and came to the house of the young man the Levite, even unto the house of Micah, and saluted him.
16	Meanwhile the six hundred Danite soldiers, ready for battle, were standing at the gate.	And the six hundred men appointed with their weapons of war, which were of the children of Dan, stood by the entering of the gate.
17	The five spies went straight on into the house and took the wooden idol covered with silver, the other idols, and the ephod, while the priest stayed at the gate with the six hundred armed men.	And the five men that went to spy out the land went up, and came in thither, and took the graven image, and the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image: and the priest stood in the entering of the gate with the six hundred men that were appointed with weapons of war.
18	When the men went into Micah's house and took the sacred objects, the priest asked them, “What are you doing?”	And these went into Micah’s house, and fetched the carved image, the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image. Then said the priest unto them, What do ye?
19	They told him, “Keep quiet. Don't say a word. Come with us and be our priest and adviser. Wouldn't you rather be a priest for a whole Israelite tribe than for the family of one man?”	And they said unto him, Hold thy peace, lay thine hand upon thy mouth, and go with us, and be to us a father and a priest: is it better for thee to be a priest unto the house of one man, or that thou be a priest unto a tribe and a family in Israel?
20	This made the priest very happy, so he took the sacred objects and went along with them.	And the priest’s heart was glad, and he took the ephod, and the teraphim, and the graven image, and went in the midst of the people.
21	They turned around and started off, with their children, their livestock, and their belongings going ahead.	So they turned and departed, and put the little ones and the cattle and the carriage before them.
22	They had traveled a good distance from the house when Micah called his neighbors out for battle. They caught up with the Danites	And when they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men that were in the houses near to Micah’s house were gathered together, and overtook the children of Dan.
23	and shouted at them. The Danites turned around and asked Micah, “What's the matter? Why all this mob?”	And they cried unto the children of Dan. And they turned their faces, and said unto Micah, What aileth thee, that thou comest with such a company?
24	Micah answered, “What do you mean, ‘What's the matter?’ You take my priest and the gods that I made, and walk off? What have I got left?”	And he said, Ye have taken away my gods which I made, and the priest, and ye are gone away: and what have I more? and what is this that ye say unto me, What aileth thee?
25	The Danites told him, “You had better not say anything else unless you want these men to get angry and attack you. You and your whole family would die.”	And the children of Dan said unto him, Let not thy voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows run upon thee, and thou lose thy life, with the lives of thy household.
26	Then the Danites went on. Micah saw that they were too strong for him, so he turned and went back home.	And the children of Dan went their way: and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back unto his house.
27	—	And they took the things which Micah had made, and the priest which he had, and came unto Laish, unto a people that were at quiet and secure: and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and burnt the city with fire.
28	After the Danites had taken the priest and the things that Micah had made, they went and attacked Laish, that town of peaceful, quiet people which was in the same valley as Bethrehob. They killed the inhabitants and burned the town. There was no one to save them, because Laish was a long way from Sidon, and they had no dealings with any other people. The Danites rebuilt the town and settled down there.	And there was no deliverer, because it was far from Zidon, and they had no business with any man; and it was in the valley that lieth by Beth–rehob. And they built a city, and dwelt therein.
29	They changed its name from Laish to Dan, after their ancestor Dan, the son of Jacob.	And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born unto Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the first.
30	The Danites set up the idol to be worshiped, and Jonathan, the son of Gershom and grandson of Moses, served as a priest for the Danites, and his descendants served as their priests until the people were taken away into exile.	And the children of Dan set up the graven image: and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Manasseh, he and his sons were priests to the tribe of Dan until the day of the captivity of the land.
31	Micah's idol remained there as long as the Tent where God was worshiped remained at Shiloh.	And they set them up Micah’s graven image, which he made, all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh.
