1 Samuel 5:1-4

1Now the Philistines had captured the ark of God and brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod.

2The Philistines took the ark of God and brought it into the temple of Dagon, where they positioned it beside Dagon.

3When the residents of Ashdod got up early the next day, Dagon was lying on the ground before the ark of the Lord. So they took Dagon and set him back in his place.

4But when they got up early the following day, Dagon was again lying on the ground before the ark of the Lord. The head of Dagon and his two hands were sheared off and were lying at the threshold. Only Dagon’s body was left intact.
