  • 1SA-6:1 And the ark of the LORD was in the country of the

  • Philistines seven



  • months.



  • 1SA-6:2 And the Philistines called for the priests and the

  • diviners, saying,



  • What shall we do to the ark of the LORD? tell us wherewith we

  • shall send it to



  • his place.



  • 1SA-6:3 And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of

  • Israel, send it



  • not empty; but in any wise return him a trespass offering: then

  • ye shall be



  • healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed

  • from you.



  • 1SA-6:4 Then said they, What [shall be] the trespass offering

  • which we shall



  • return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods, and five

  • golden mice,



  • [according to] the number of the lords of the Philistines: for

  • one plague



  • [was] on you all, and on your lords.



  • 1SA-6:5 Wherefore ye shall make images of your emerods, and

  • images of your



  • mice that mar the land; and ye shall give glory unto the God of

  • Israel:



  • peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off

  • your gods,



  • and from off your land.



  • 1SA-6:6 Wherefore then do ye harden your hearts, as the

  • Egyptians and Pharaoh



  • hardened their hearts? when he had wrought wonderfully among

  • them, did they



  • not let the people go, and they departed?



  • 1SA-6:7 Now therefore make a new cart, and take two milch kine,

  • on which



  • there hath come no yoke, and tie the kine to the cart, and bring

  • their calves



  • home from them:



  • 1SA-6:8 And take the ark of the LORD, and lay it upon the cart;

  • and put the



  • jewels of gold, which ye return him [for] a trespass offering,

  • in a coffer by



  • the side thereof; and send it away, that it may go.



  • 1SA-6:9 And see, if it goeth up by the way of his own coast to

  • Bethshemesh,



  • [then] he hath done us this great evil: but if not, then we

  • shall know that



  • [it is] not his hand [that] smote us: it [was] a chance [that]

  • happened to us.







  • 1SA-6:10 And the men did so; and took two milch kine, and tied

  • them to the



  • cart, and shut up their calves at home:



  • 1SA-6:11 And they laid the ark of the LORD upon the cart, and

  • the coffer with



  • the mice of gold and the images of their emerods.



  • 1SA-6:12 And the kine took the straight way to the way of

  • Bethshemesh, [and]



  • went along the highway, lowing as they went, and turned not

  • aside [to] the



  • right hand or [to] the left; and the lords of the Philistines

  • went after them



  • unto the border of Bethshemesh.



  • 1SA-6:13 And [they of] Bethshemesh [were] reaping their wheat

  • harvest in the



  • valley: and they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark, and

  • rejoiced to see



  • [it].



  • 1SA-6:14 And the cart came into the field of Joshua, a

  • Bethshemite, and stood



  • there, where [there was] a great stone: and they clave the wood

  • of the cart,



  • and offered the kine a burnt offering unto the LORD.



  • 1SA-6:15 And the Levites took down the ark of the LORD, and the

  • coffer that



  • [was] with it, wherein the jewels of gold [were], and put [them]

  • on the great



  • stone: and the men of Bethshemesh offered burnt offerings and

  • sacrificed



  • sacrifices the same day unto the LORD.



  • 1SA-6:16 And when the five lords of the Philistines had seen

  • [it], they



  • returned to Ekron the same day.



  • 1SA-6:17 And these [are] the golden emerods which the

  • Philistines returned



  • [for] a trespass offering unto the LORD; for Ashdod one, for

  • Gaza one, for



  • Askelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;



  • 1SA-6:18 And the golden mice, [according to] the number of all

  • the cities of



  • the Philistines [belonging] to the five lords, [both] of fenced

  • cities, and of



  • country villages, even unto the great [stone of] Abel, whereon

  • they set down



  • the ark of the LORD: [which stone remaineth] unto this day in

  • the field of



  • Joshua, the Bethshemite.



  • 1SA-6:19 And he smote the men of Bethshemesh, because they had

  • looked into



  • the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand

  • and threescore



  • and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had

  • smitten [many] of



  • the people with a great slaughter.



  • 1SA-6:20 And the men of Bethshemesh said, Who is able to stand

  • before this



  • holy LORD God? and to whom shall he go up from us?



  • 1SA-6:21 And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of

  • Kirjathjearim,



  • saying, The Philistines have brought again the ark of the LORD;

  • come ye down,



  • [and] fetch it up to you.
