Judges 18:27

---

← Judges 18:26	Judges 18:27 (KJV)	Judges 18:28 →
And the children of Dan went their way: and when Micah saw that they [were] too strong for him, he turned and went back unto his house.	And they took [the things] which Micah had made, and the priest which he had, and came unto Laish, unto a people [that were] at quiet and secure: and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and burnt the city with fire.	And [there was] no deliverer, because it [was] far from Zidon, and they had no business with [any] man; and it was in the valley that [lieth] by Bethrehob. And they built a city, and dwelt therein.
