Then the five men departed, and came to Laish,a 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.
