Ainsi, ayant pris les choses que Mica avait faites et le sacrificateur qu'il avait, ils tombèrent sur Laïs, sur un peuple tranquille et qui se croyait en sûreté; et ils le firent passer au fil de l'épée; puis, ayant mis le feu à la ville, ils la brûlèrent.
Ils enlevèrent ainsi ce qu'avait fait Mica et emmenèrent le prêtre qui était à son service, et ils tombèrent sur Laïs, sur un peuple tranquille et en sécurité; ils le passèrent au fil de l'épée, et ils brûlèrent la ville.
Ainsi ayant pris les choses que Mica avait faites, et le Sacrificateur qu'il avait, ils arrivèrent à Laïs, vers un peuple qui était en repos, et qui se tenait assuré, et ils les firent passer au fil de l'épée, et ayant mis le feu dans la ville, ils la brûlèrent.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they took the things which Micah had made,.... The ephod, teraphim, and the two images, the Danites took them, or having taken them kept them, and went on with them:
and the priest which he had; him also they took, and who was willing enough to go with them:
and came unto Laish, unto a people that were quiet and secure; having no sentinels placed at any distance to give them warning of an enemy, nor any watchmen on their walls to discover one; and perhaps their gates not shut, nor any guard at any of their passes and avenues, having no apprehension at all of being visited by an enemy, especially from Israel, not being apprized that they had any pretensions to their city, and the land about it:
and they smote them with the edge of the sword; entered their city, and fell on them suddenly, and cut them to pieces:
and burnt the city with fire; to strike terror to all about; or it may be only they set fire to some part of it, as they entered, only to frighten the inhabitants, and throw them into the greater confusion, that they might become a more easy prey to them; for their intention was to inhabit it, and it seems to be the same city still, though they rebuilt it, and called it by another name.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The things which Micah had made - Rather, from Judges 18:24, “the gods which Micah had made.†See Judges 18:31; Deuteronomy 27:15; Exodus 20:4.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Judges 18:27. Unto a people - at quiet and secure — They found the report given by the spies to be correct. The people were apprehensive of no danger, and were unprepared for resistance; hence they were all put to the sword, and their city burnt up.
