Judges 18:4-7
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 18

4He said to them, 'Micah has done this and that for me, and he has hired me and I have become his priest.' 5Then they said to him, 'Inquire of God, please, that we may know whether our way on which we are going will be successful.' 6And the priest said to them, 'Go in peace; your way in which you are going has the Lord’S approval.'
7So the five men departed and came to Laish, and saw the people who were in it living in security, in the way of the Sidonians, quiet and unsuspecting; for there was no oppressive ruler humiliating them for anything in the land, and they were far from the Sidonians and had no dealings with anyone.
King James Version

Chapter 18

4And he said unto them, Thus and thus dealeth Micah with me, and hath hired me, and I am his priest. 5And they said unto him, Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous. 6And the priest said unto them, Go in peace: before the Lord is your way wherein ye go.
7Then the five men departed, and came to Laish, and saw the people that were therein, how they dwelt careless, after the manner of the Zidonians, quiet and secure; and there was no magistrate in the land, that might put them to shame in any thing; and they were far from the Zidonians, and had no business with any man.

Chapter 18

4He told them, "This is what Micah has done for me: He has hired me, and I became his priest."
5Then they said to him, "Please inquire of God for us to determine if we will have a successful journey."
6The priest told them, "Go in peace. The Lord is watching over the journey you are going on."
7The five men left and came to Laish. They saw that the people who were there were living securely, in the same way as the Sidonians, quiet and unsuspecting. There was nothing lacking in the land and no oppressive ruler. They were far from the Sidonians, having no alliance with anyone.
New Living Translation

Chapter 18

4He told them about his agreement with Micah and that he had been hired as Micah’s personal priest.
5Then they said, 'Ask God whether or not our journey will be successful.'
6Go in peace,' the priest replied. 'For the Lord is watching over your journey.'
7So the five men went on to the town of Laish, where they noticed the people living carefree lives, like the Sidonians; they were peaceful and secure. The people were also wealthy because their land was very fertile. And they lived a great distance from Sidon and had no allies nearby.
English Standard Version

Chapter 18

4And he said to them, "This is how Micah dealt with me: he has hired me, and I have become his priest." 5And they said to him, "Inquire of God, please, that we may know whether the journey on which we are setting out will succeed." 6And the priest said to them, "Go in peace. The journey on which you go is under the eye of the Lord."
7Then the five men departed and came to Laish and saw the people who were there, how they lived in security, after the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and unsuspecting, lacking nothing that is in the earth and possessing wealth, and how they were far from the Sidonians and had no dealings with anyone.
New International Version

Chapter 18

4He told them what Micah had done for him, and said, "He has hired me and I am his priest."
5Then they said to him, "Please inquire of God to learn whether our journey will be successful."
6The priest answered them, "Go in peace. Your journey has the Lord’s approval."
7So the five men left and came to Laish, where they saw that the people were living in safety, like the Sidonians, at peace 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.
New King James Version

Chapter 18

4He said to them, “Thus and so Micah did for me. He has hired me, and I have become his priest.”
5So they said to him, “Please inquire of God, that we may know whether the journey on which we go will be prosperous.”
6And the priest said to them, “Go in peace. The presence of the Lord be with you on your way.”
7So the five men departed and went to Laish. They saw the people who were there, how they dwelt safely, in the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and secure. There were no rulers in the land who might put them to shame for anything. They were far from the Sidonians, and they had no ties with anyone.
