Judges 18:5-7

Easy-to-Read Version

⁵ So they said to him, “Please ask God if our search for a place to live will be successful.”

⁶ The priest said to the five men, “Yes. Go in peace. The Lord will lead you on your way.”

⁷ So the five men left. They came to the city of Laish and saw that the people of that city lived in safety. They were ruled by the people of Sidon. Everything was peaceful and quiet. The people had plenty of everything, and they didn’t have any enemies nearby to hurt them. Also they lived a long way from the city of Sidon, and they did not have any agreements with the people of Aram.^[a]
