1And the menH376 of Kiriath-jearimH7157 cameH935, and fetched up the arkH727 of Jehovah, and broughtH935 it into the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 in the hillH1389, and sanctifiedH6942 EleazarH499 his sonH1121 to keepH8104 the arkH727 of Jehovah. 2And it came to pass, from the dayH3117 that the arkH727 abode in Kiriath-jearimH7157, that the time wasH1961 long; for it wasH1961 twentyH6242 yearsH8141: and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 lamented after Jehovah.

3And SamuelH8050 spake unto all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, If ye do returnH7725 unto Jehovah with all your heartH3824, then put awayH5493 the foreign godsH430 and the AshtarothH6252 from among you, and directH3559 your heartsH3824 unto Jehovah, and serveH5647 him onlyH905; and he will deliverH5337 you out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430.
