26. And the Danites went their way; and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back to his house.
27. And they took the things which Micah had made, and his priest, and came to Laish, to a people quiet and feeling secure, and they smote them with the sword and burned the city.
28. And there was no deliverer because it was far from Sidon, and they had no business with anyone. It was in the valley which belongs to Beth-rehob. And they rebuilt the city and dwelt in it.
29. They named the city Dan, after Dan their forefather who was born to Israel; however, the name of the city was Laish at first.
