Judges 18:27-29

New Life Version

²⁷ The men of Dan took what Micah had made and the religious leader who had belonged to him. They came to Laish, to people who were quiet and felt safe. And they killed them with the sword. They burned the city with fire. ²⁸ There was no one to take them away from their trouble, because it was far from Sidon and they had nothing to do with anyone. It was in the valley near Beth-rehob. The sons of Dan built the city again, and lived in it. ²⁹ They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father who was born in Israel. The name of the city had been Laish before.
