1 Samuel 4:16-18

16And the manH376 saidH559 unto EliH5941, I am he that cameH935 outH4480 of the armyH4634, and I fledH5127 todayH3117 outH4480 of the armyH4634. And he saidH559, HowH4100 wentH935 the matterH1697, my sonH1121?

17And he that broughtH3947 the tidingsH1319 answeredH559 and saidH559, IsraelH3478 is fledH5127 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and there hath been also a greatH1419 slaughterH4046 among the peopleH5971, and thy twoH8147 sonsH1121 also, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, are deadH4191, and the arkH727 of GodH430 is takenH3947.

18And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when he madeH1961 mentionH2142 of the arkH727 of GodH430, that he fellH5307 from offH5921 his seatH3678 backwardH322 by the sideH3027 of the gateH8179, and his neckH4665 brake, and he diedH4191: for he was an oldH2204 manH376, and heavyH3515. And he had judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 fortyH705 yearsH8141.
