1 Samuel 6:3-5
3And they said, “If you are going to send the ark of the God of Israel away, 1do not send it empty; but you shall certainly 2return to Him a guilt offering. Then you will be healed, and it will be revealed to you why His hand does not leave you.”
4Then they said, “What is to be the guilt offering that we shall return to Him?” And they said, “Five gold 3tumors and five gold mice 4corresponding to the number of the governors of the Philistines, since one plague was on all of 5you and on your governors.
5So you shall make likenesses of your tumors and likenesses of your mice that are ruining the land, and 6you shall give glory to the God of Israel; perhaps 7He will lighten His hand from you, 8your gods, and your land.
