5 Then they said to him, “Please inquire of God(A) to learn whether our journey will be successful.”
6 The priest answered them, “Go in peace(B). Your journey has the Lord’s approval.”
7 So the five men(C) left and came to Laish,(D) where they saw that the people were living in safety, like the Sidonians, at peace and secure.(E) And since their land lacked nothing, they were prosperous.[a] Also, they lived a long way from the Sidonians(F) and had no relationship with anyone else.[b]

King James Version
5 And they said unto him, Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous.
6 And the priest said unto them, Go in peace: before the Lord is your way wherein ye go.
7 Then 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.
