19 And they said to him, Be still, put your hand over your mouth, and come with us, and be to us a father and a priest. Is it better for you to be a priest to the house of one man, or that you be a priest to a tribe and family in Israel?
20 And the priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod, the teraphim, and the graven image, and went in the midst of the people.
21 So they turned and departed and put the little ones, the cattle, and the baggage in front of them.
22 When they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men who were Micah's near neighbors were called out and overtook the Danites.
23 They shouted to the Danites, who turned and said to Micah, What ails you, that you come with such a company?
24 And he said, You take away my gods which I made and the priest, and go away; and what have I left? How can you say to me, What ails you?
25 And the men of Dan said to him, Let not your voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows fall upon you and you lose your life with the lives of your household.
