- 那时,以色列中没有王。但支派的人仍是寻地居住。因为到那日子,他们还没有在以色列支派中得地为业。
- 但人从琐拉和以实陶打发本族中的五个勇士,去仔细窥探那地,吩咐他们说,你们去窥探那地。他们来到以法莲山地,进了米迦的住宅,就在那里住宿。
- 他们临近米迦的住宅,听出那少年利未人的口音来,就进去问他说,谁领你到这里来。你在这里作什么。你在这里得什么。
- 他回答说,米迦待我如此如此,请我作祭司。
- 他们对他说,请你求问神,使我们知道所行的道路通达不通达。

- In those days there was no king of Israel; and in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking an inheritance for themselves to live in, for until that day an inheritance had not been allotted to them as a possession among the tribes of Israel.
- So the sons of Dan sent from their family five men out of their whole number, valiant men from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and to search it; and they said to them, "Go, search the land " And they came to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there.
- When they were near the house of Micah, they recognized the voice of the young man, the Levite; and they turned aside there and said to him, "Who brought you here? And what are you doing in this place? And what do you have here?"
- He said to them, "Thus and so has Micah done to me, and he has hired me and I have become his priest."
- They said to him, "Inquire of God, please, that we may know whether our way on which we are going will be prosperous."
