1 Samuel 6:7-12

7NowH6258 thereforeH6258 takeH3947 and prepare you a newH2319 cartH5699, and twoH8147 milch kine, on which there hath comeH5927 no yokeH5923; and tie the kine to the cartH5699, and bringH7725 their calves home from them; 8and takeH3947 the arkH727 of Jehovah, and lay it upon the cartH5699; and putH5414 the jewels of goldH2091, which ye returnH7725 him for a trespass-offering, in a coffer by the sideH6654 thereof; and sendH7971 it awayH7971, that it may goH1980. 9And seeH7200; if it goeth up by the wayH1870 of its own borderH1366 to Beth-shemeshH1053, then he hath done us this greatH1419 evilH7451: but if not, then we shall knowH3045 that it is not his handH3027 that smote us; it wasH1961 a chanceH4745 that happened to us.

10And the menH376 did soH3651, and tookH3947 twoH8147 milch kine, and tied them to the cartH5699, and shutH3607 up their calves at home; 11and they putH7760 the arkH727 of Jehovah upon the cartH5699, and the coffer with the miceH5909 of goldH2091 and the imagesH6754 of their tumorsH2914. 12And the kine took the straightH3474 wayH1870 by the wayH1870 to Beth-shemeshH1053; they wentH1980 along the highwayH4546, lowing as they wentH1980, and turnedH5493 not asideH5493 to the rightH3225 handH3225 or to the left; and the lords of the PhilistinesH6430 wentH1980 after them unto the borderH1366 of Beth-shemeshH1053.
