Judges 18:16-18
International Standard Version
16 While the 600 Danite soldiers, armed with military weapons, stood guard at the entrance to the gate, 17 the five men who had gone to scout out the land arrived, entered Micah’s home[a] and confiscated the carved image, the ephod, the household idols,[b] and the cast image. Meanwhile, the priest stood outside by the entrance to the gate with the 600 men armed with military weapons. 18 After they went into Micah’s home and took possession of the carved image, the ephod, the household idols,[c] and the cast image, the priest challenged them. “What are you doing?” he asked them.
