9 They replied, “Get up, let’s attack Laish. We saw the land. It’s very good!“Don’t just sit there! Go at once and take the land.
10 When you get there, you will come to a secure people. The land is wide open to you. God will hand it over to you. It’s a place where you will have everything you could want.”
11 So 600 men from the tribe of Dan left Zorah and Eshtaol armed for war.
12 They camped at Kiriath Jearim in Judah. This is why the place just west of Kiriath Jearim is still called Mahaneh Dan [The Camp of Dan] today.
13 From there they marched to the mountains of Ephraim as far as Micah’s house.
14 Then the five men who had gone to spy throughout the land around Laish spoke up. They said to the other men of Dan, “Do you know that there’s an ephod, a carved idol, a metal idol, and household idols in these houses? What do you think we should do?”
15 So they stopped and entered Micah’s house and greeted the young Levite.
