5 They said to him, “Please ask God something for us. Will our search for a place to live be successful?”
6 The priest said to them, “Go in peace. The Lord is pleased with your journey.”
7 So the five men left. They came to the city of Laish. They saw that the people there lived in safety. They were like the people of Sidon. They lived in peace and were not afraid of others. They had plenty of everything. They lived a long way from the Sidonians. And they had no dealings with anyone else.
