1 Samuel 5:7-9

7When the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, “The ark of the God of Israel must not remain with us, for His hand is severe on us and on Dagon our god.”

8So they sent and 1gathered all the lords of the Philistines to them and said, “What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?” And they said, “Let the ark of the God of Israel be brought around to Gath.” And they brought the ark of the God of Israel around.

9After they had brought it around, 2the hand of the Lord was against the city with very great confusion; and He smote the men of the city, both young and old, so that 3tumors broke out on them.
