14. the five men who had been spies asked the other warriors, “Did you know that someone in this village has several idols and a sacred priestly apron? What do you think we should do about it?”
15-18. The six hundred warriors left the road and went to the house on Micah's property where the young Levite priest lived. They stood at the gate and greeted the priest. Meanwhile, the five men who had been there before went into Micah's house and took the sacred priestly apron and the idols.“Hey!” the priest shouted. “What do you think you're doing?”
19. “Quiet!” the men said. “Keep your mouth shut and listen. Why don't you come with us and be our priest, so you can tell us what God wants us to do? You could stay here and be a priest for one man's family, but wouldn't you rather be the priest for a clan or even a whole tribe of Israel?”
20. The priest really liked that idea. So he took the apron and the idols and joined the others
21. from the tribe of Dan. Then they turned and left, after putting their children, their cattle, and the rest of their other possessions in front.
