1 Samuel 4:3-11

And when the people
<05971>

were come
<0935> (8799)

into the camp
<04264>_,

the elders
<02205>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Wherefore hath the LORD
<03068>

smitten
<05062> (8804)

us to day
<03117>

before
<06440>

the Philistines
<06430>_?

Let us fetch
<03947> (8799)

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

out of Shiloh
<07887>

unto us, that, when it cometh
<0935> (8799)

among
<07130>

us, it may save
<03467> (8686)

us out of the hand
<03709>

of our enemies
<0341> (8802)_.

{fetch: Heb. take unto us}

So the people
<05971>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to Shiloh
<07887>_,

that they might bring
<05375> (8799)

from thence the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

which dwelleth
<03427> (8802)

[between] the cherubims
<03742>_:

and the two
<08147>

sons
<01121>

of Eli
<05941>_,

Hophni
<02652>

and Phinehas
<06372>_,

[were] there with the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of God
<0430>_.

And when the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

came
<0935> (8800)

into the camp
<04264>_,

all Israel
<03478>

shouted
<07321> (8686)

with a great
<01419>

shout
<08643>_,

so that the earth
<0776>

rang again
<01949> (8735)_.

And when the Philistines
<06430>

heard
<08085> (8799)

the noise
<06963>

of the shout
<08643>_,

they said
<0559> (8799)_,

What [meaneth] the noise
<06963>

of this great
<01419>

shout
<08643>

in the camp
<04264>

of the Hebrews
<05680>_?

And they understood
<03045> (8799)

that the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>

was come
<0935> (8804)

into the camp
<04264>_.

And the Philistines
<06430>

were afraid
<03372> (8799)_,

for they said
<0559> (8804)_,

God
<0430>

is come
<0935> (8804)

into the camp
<04264>_.

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Woe
<0188>

unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore
<0865> <08032>_.

{heretofore: Heb. yesterday, or, the third day}

Woe
<0188>

unto us! who shall deliver
<05337> (8686)

us out of the hand
<03027>

of these mighty
<0117>

Gods
<0430>_?

these [are] the Gods
<0430>

that smote
<05221> (8688)

the Egyptians
<04714>

with all the plagues
<04347>

in the wilderness
<04057>_.

Be strong
<02388> (8690)_,

and quit
<01961> (8798)

yourselves like men
<0582>_,

O ye Philistines
<06430>_,

that ye be not servants
<05647> (8799)

unto the Hebrews
<05680>_,

as they have been
<05647> (8804)

to you: quit
<01961> (8804)

yourselves like men
<0582>_,

and fight
<03898> (8738)_.

{quit...: Heb. be men}

And the Philistines
<06430>

fought
<03898> (8735)_,

and Israel
<03478>

was smitten
<05062> (8735)_,

and they fled
<05127> (8799)

every man
<0376>

into his tent
<0168>_:

and there was a very
<03966>

great
<01419>

slaughter
<04347>_;

for there fell
<05307> (8799)

of Israel
<03478>

thirty
<07970>

thousand
<0505>

footmen
<07273>_.

And the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>

was taken
<03947> (8738)_;

and the two
<08147>

sons
<01121>

of Eli
<05941>_,

Hophni
<02652>

and Phinehas
<06372>_,

were slain
<04191> (8804)_.

{were slain: Heb. died}
