And the children of Dan said unto him, Let not thy voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows run upon thee, and thou lose thy life, with the lives of thy household.

Verse 25 is found in chapter 18 of Judges. The Danites escape with the objects and threaten Micah when he tries to recover them. They then conquer Laish, destroy it, and rebuild it as Dan. They establish the stolen image there and keep the Levite as priest. The narrative connects Dan’s territorial expansion with an illicit religious practice, showing that territorial success is not evidence of divine approval.

Aber die Kinder Dan sprachen zu ihm: Laß deine Stimme nicht hören bei uns, daß nicht auf dich stoßen zornige Leute und deine Seele und deines Hauses Seele nicht hingerafft werde!
Y los hijos de Dan le dijeron: No des voces tras nosotros, no sea que los de ánimo colérico os acometan, y pierdas también tu vida, y la vida de los tuyos.
Los danitas le dijeron: «Que no oigamos tu voz entre nosotros, no sea que hombres de mal genio los ataquen y pierdas tu vida y la de tu familia».
Les fils de Dan lui dirent: Ne fais pas entendre ta voix près de nous; sinon des hommes irrités se jetteront sur vous, et tu causeras ta perte et celle de ta maison.
Ma i figliuoli di Dan gli dissero: Non far che s’intenda la tua voce appresso di noi; che talora alcuni uomini d’animo iracondo non si avventino sopra voi; e che tu, e que’ di casa tua, perdiate la vita.
Porém os filhos de Dã lhe disseram: Não nos faças ouvir a tua voz, para que porventura homens de ânimo mau não se lancem sobre vós, e tu percas a tua vida, e a vida dos da tua casa.
但 人對 米迦 說:「你不要讓我們再聽見你的聲音,恐怕這群惱怒成性的人會攻擊你們,你和你的全家就會喪命。」
