1 Samuel 4:1-10

1And the wordH1697 of SamuelH8050 came to all IsraelH3478.

Now IsraelH3478 wentH3318 out against the PhilistinesH6430 to battleH4421, and encampedH2583 beside Eben-ezer: and the PhilistinesH6430 encampedH2583 in AphekH663. 2And the PhilistinesH6430 put themselves in array against IsraelH3478: and when they joined battleH4421, IsraelH3478 was smitten before the PhilistinesH6430; and they slew of the army in the fieldH7704 about fourH702 thousandH505 menH376. 3And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935 into the campH4264, the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, Wherefore hath Jehovah smitten us to-day before the PhilistinesH6430? Let us fetch the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah out of ShilohH7887 unto us, that it may comeH935 among us, and saveH3467 us out of the handH3709 of our enemiesH341. 4So the peopleH5971 sentH7971 to ShilohH7887; and they brought from thence the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah of hostsH6635, who sitteth above the cherubimH3742: and the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, were there with the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430.

5And when the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah cameH935 into the campH4264, all IsraelH3478 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH7321, so that the earthH776 rang again. 6And when the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 the noise of the shoutH8643, they saidH559, What meaneth the noise of this greatH1419 shoutH8643 in the campH4264 of the HebrewsH5680? And they understood that the arkH727 of Jehovah was comeH935 into the campH4264. 7And the PhilistinesH6430 wereH1961 afraidH3372, for they saidH559, GodH430 is comeH935 into the campH4264. And they saidH559, WoeH188 unto us! for there hath not beenH1961 such a thing heretofore. 8WoeH188 unto us! who shall deliverH5337 us out of the handH3027 of these mightyH117 godsH430? these are the godsH430 that smote the Egyptians with all manner of plaguesH4347 in the wildernessH4057. 9BeH1961 strongH2388, and quit yourselves like menH376, O ye PhilistinesH6430, that ye beH1961 not servants unto the HebrewsH5680, as they have beenH1961 to you: quit yourselves like menH376, and fightH3898. 10And the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898, and IsraelH3478 wasH1961 smitten, and they fledH5127 every manH376 to his tentH168: and there wasH1961 a veryH3966 greatH1419 slaughterH4347; for there fellH5307 of IsraelH3478 thirtyH7970 thousandH505 footmen.
