20 The priest really liked that idea. So he took the apron and the idols and joined the others
21 from the tribe of Dan. Then they turned and left, after putting their children, their cattle, and the rest of their other possessions in front.
22 They had travelled for some time, before Micah asked his neighbours to help him get his things back. He and his men caught up with the people of Dan
23 and shouted for them to stop.They turned to face him and asked, “What's wrong? Why did you bring all these men?”
24 Micah answered, “You know what's wrong. You stole the gods I made, and you took my priest. I don't have anything left.”
25 “We don't want to hear any more about it,” the people of Dan said. “And if you make us angry, you'll only get yourself and your family killed.”
26 After saying this, they turned and left.Micah realized there was no way he could win a fight with them, and so he went back home.
