ગુજરાતીન્યાયાધીશો ૧૮:૨૭
મિખાએ જે બનાવ્યું હતું તે દાનના લોકોએ લઈ લીધું, તેની સાથે તેના યાજકોને પણ લાઈશમાં આવ્યાં, ત્યાં લોકો નિર્ભય તથા સુરક્ષિત હતા, તેઓએ તેઓને તલવારથી મારી નાખ્યા અને નગરને બાળી નાખ્યું.
हिन्दीन्यायियों १८:२७
तब वे मीका के बनवाए हुए पदार्थों और उसके पुरोहित को साथ ले लैश के पास आए, जिसके लोग शान्ति से और बिना खटके रहते थे, और उन्होंने उनको तलवार से मार डाला, और नगर को आग लगाकर फूँक दिया।

In context

25The children of Dan said to him, “Don’t let your voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows fall on you, and you lose your life, with the lives of your household.”

26The children of Dan went their way; and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back to his house.

27They took that which Micah had made, and the priest whom he had, and came to Laish, to a people quiet and unsuspecting, and struck them with the edge of the sword; then they burned the city with fire.

28There was no deliverer, because it was far from Sidon, and they had no dealings with anyone else; and it was in the valley that lies by Beth Rehob. They built the city and lived in it.

29They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel; however the name of the city used to be Laish.
