21So they went on their way again, putting the little ones and the oxen and the goods in front of them.
22When they had gone some way from the house of Micah, the men from the houses near Micah's house came together and overtook the children of Dan,
23Crying out to them. And the Danites, turning round, said to Micah, What is your trouble, that you have taken up arms?
24And he said, You have taken my gods which I made, and my priest, and have gone away; what is there for me now? Why then do you say to me, What is your trouble?
25And the children of Dan said to him, Say no more, or men of bitter spirit may make an attack on you, causing loss of your life and the lives of your people.
26Then the children of Dan went on their way; and when Micah saw that they were stronger than he, he went back to his house.
27And they took that which Micah had made, and his priest, and came to Laish, to a people living quietly and without thought of danger, and they put them to the sword without mercy, burning down their town.
