07:018:011 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.

07:018:012 And they went up, and pitched in Kirjathjearim, in Judah: 
           wherefore they called that place Mahanehdan unto this day: 
           behold, it is behind Kirjathjearim.

07:018:013 And they passed thence unto mount Ephraim, and came unto the
           house of Micah.

07:018:014 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.

07:018:015 And they turned thitherward, and came to the house of the
           young man the Levite, even unto the house of Micah, and
           saluted him.

07:018:016 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.

07:018:017 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.

07:018:018 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?

07:018:019 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?

07:018:020 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.

07:018:021 So they turned and departed, and put the little ones and the
           cattle and the carriage before them.

07:018:022 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.

07:018:023 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?

07:018:024 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?
