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.
