5Then they said, Do get directions from God for us, to see if the journey on which we are going will have a good outcome.
6And the priest said to them, Go in peace: your way is guided by the Lord.
7Then the five men went on their way and came to Laish and saw the people who were there, living without thought of danger, like the Zidonians, quiet and safe; for they had everything on earth for their needs, and they were far from the Zidonians and had no business with Aram.
8So they came back to their brothers in Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brothers said to them, What news have you?
9And they said, Up! and let us go against Laish; for we have seen the land, and it is very good: why are you doing nothing? Do not be slow to go in and take the land for your heritage.
10When you come there you will come to a people living without thought of danger; and the land is wide, and God has given it into your hands: a place where there is everything on earth for man's needs.
11So six hundred men of the Danites from Zorah and Eshtaol went out armed with instruments of war.
