Judges 18:28-30

New Catholic Bible

²⁸ There was no one to deliver them, for Sidon was far away and they had no allies. This happened in the valley near Beth-rehob. They built a city and dwelt there. ²⁹ They named the city Dan after their forefather who was called Dan. He was the son of Israel. The city had originally been called Laish. ³⁰ The Danites set up the carved idol, and they chose Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, and his sons as priests to the Danites, and they continued to serve until they were exiled from the land.^[a]
