- So the five men left and came to Laish, where they saw that the people were living in safety, like the Sidonians, unsuspecting and secure. And since their land lacked nothing, they were prosperous. Also, they lived a long way from the Sidonians and had no relationship with anyone else.
- When they returned to Zorah and Eshtaol, their brothers asked them, "How did you find things?"
- They answered, "Come on, let's attack them! We have seen that the land is very good. Aren't you going to do something? Don't hesitate to go there and take it over.
- 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 whatever."

- 祭司对他们说,你们可以平平安安地去,你们所行的道路是在耶和华面前的。
- 五人就走了,来到拉亿,见那里的民安居无虑,如同西顿人安居一样。在那地没有人掌权扰乱他们。他们离西顿人也远,与别人没有来往。
- 五人回到琐拉和以实陶,见他们的弟兄。弟兄问他们说,你们有什么话。
- 他们回答说,起来,我们上去攻击他们吧。我们已经窥探那地,见那地甚好。你们为何静坐不动呢。要急速前往得那地为业,不可迟延。
- 你们到了那里,必看见安居无虑的民,地也宽阔。神已将那地交在你们手中。那地百物俱全,一无所缺。
