1 Samuel 4:5-9

5When the ark of the Lord’s covenant came into the camp, all Israel raised such a great shout that the ground shook.

6Hearing the uproar, the Philistines asked, “What’s all this shouting in the Hebrew camp?” When they learned that the ark of the Lord had come into the camp,

7the Philistines were afraid. “A god has come into the camp,” they said. “Oh no! Nothing like this has happened before.

8We’re doomed! Who will deliver us from the hand of these mighty gods? They are the gods who struck the Egyptians with all kinds of plagues in the wilderness.

9Be strong, Philistines! Be men, or you will be subject to the Hebrews, as they have been to you. Be men, and fight!”
