Young's Literal Translation
5 And they say to him, `Ask, we pray thee, at God, and we know whether our way is prosperous on which we are going.'
6 And the priest saith to them, `Go in peace; over-against Jehovah [is] your way in which ye go.'
7 And the five men go, and come in to Laish, and see the people which [is] in its midst, dwelling confidently, according to the custom of Zidonians, quiet and confident; and there is none putting to shame in the land in [any] thing, possessing restraint, and they [are] far off from the Zidonians, and have no word with [any] man.
