Judges 18:14
Then answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto their brethren, Do ye know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image? now therefore consider what ye have to do.
KJV
dixerunt quinque viri, qui prius missi fuerant ad considerandam terram Lais, ceteris fratribus suis : Nostis quod in domibus istis sit ephod, et theraphim, et sculptile, atque conflatile : videte quid vobis placeat.
Vulgate
καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν οἱ πέντε ἄνδρες οἱ πεπορευμένοι κατασκέψασθαι τὴν γῆν Λάισα καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφούς αὐτῶν Ἔγνωτε ὅτι ἔστιν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ ἐφὼδ καὶ θεραφεὶν καὶ γλυπτὸν καὶ χωνευτόν· καὶ νῦν γνῶτε ὅ τι ποιήσετε.
LXX
Then answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto their brethren, Do ye know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image? now therefore consider what ye have to do.
