Judges 18:5-7

The Message

⁵ They said, “Oh, good—inquire of God for us. Find out whether our mission will be a success.”

⁶ The priest said, “Go assured. God’s looking out for you all the way.”

⁷ The five men left and headed north to Laish. They saw that the people there were living in safety under the umbrella of the Sidonians, quiet and unsuspecting. They had everything going for them. But the people lived a long way from the Sidonians to the west and had no treaty with the Arameans to the east.
