07:017:010 And Micah said unto him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a
           father and a priest, and I will give thee ten shekels of
           silver by the year, and a suit of apparel, and thy victuals. 
           So the Levite went in.

07:017:011 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the
           young man was unto him as one of his sons.

07:017:012 And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his
           priest, and was in the house of Micah.

07:017:013 Then said Micah, Now know I that the lord will do me good,
           seeing I have a Levite to my priest.

07:018:001 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.

07:018:002 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.

07:018:003 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?

07:018:004 And he said unto them, Thus and thus dealeth Micah with me,
           and hath hired me, and I am his priest.

07:018:005 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.

07:018:006 And the priest said unto them, Go in peace:  before the lord is
           your way wherein ye go.

07:018:007 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.

07:018:008 And they came unto their brethren to Zorah and Eshtaol:  and
           their brethren said unto them, What say ye?

07:018:009 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.

07:018:010 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.
