Judges 18:7-10

New International Version

⁷ So the five men^(A) left and came to Laish,^(B) where they saw that the people were living in safety, like the Sidonians, at peace and secure.^(C) And since their land lacked nothing, they were prosperous.^[a] Also, they lived a long way from the Sidonians^(D) and had no relationship with anyone else.^[b]

⁸ When they returned to Zorah and Eshtaol, their fellow Danites asked them, “How did you find things?”

⁹ They answered, “Come on, let’s attack them! We have seen the land, and it is very good. Aren’t you going to do something? Don’t hesitate to go there and take it over.^{(E) 10} When you get there, you will find an unsuspecting people and a spacious land that God has put into your hands, a land that lacks nothing^(F) whatever.^(G)”
