Judges 18:28-30
The Voice
28 No one came to save the people of Laish, since they were far from Sidon and had no treaties with anyone. This all happened in the valley that is near Beth-rehob, house of a broad place. The Danites rebuilt the city there and lived in it. 29 They changed the name of the city from Laish to Dan, after their ancestor and namesake who was born to Israel (also called Jacob). 30 There the people of Dan set up the carved image for themselves, and Jonathan (son of Gershom, son of Moses) and his sons became the priests to Dan and were their priests until the people of Israel were taken off into captivity.

Judges 18:28-30
New International Version
28 There was no one to rescue them because they lived a long way from Sidon(A) and had no relationship with anyone else. The city was in a valley near Beth Rehob.(B)
The Danites rebuilt the city and settled there. 29 They named it Dan(C) after their ancestor Dan, who was born to Israel—though the city used to be called Laish.(D) 30 There the Danites set up for themselves the idol, and Jonathan son of Gershom,(E) the son of Moses,[a] and his sons were priests for the tribe of Dan until the time of the captivity of the land.
