And the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 was in the countryH7704 of the PhilistinesH6430 sevenH7651 monthsH2320.
And the PhilistinesH6430 calledH7121 for the priestsH3548 and the divinersH7080, sayingH559, What shall we doH6213 to the arkH727 of the LORDH3068? tellH3045 us wherewith we shall sendH7971 it to his placeH4725.
And they saidH559, If ye send awayH7971 the arkH727 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, sendH7971 it not emptyH7387; but in any wiseH7725 returnH7725 him a trespass offeringH817: then ye shall be healedH7495, and it shall be knownH3045 to you why his handH3027 is not removedH5493 from you.
Then saidH559 they, What shall be the trespass offeringH817 which we shall returnH7725 to him? They answeredH559, FiveH2568 goldenH2091 emerodsH2914+H6076, and fiveH2568 goldenH2091 miceH5909, according to the numberH4557 of the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430: for oneH259 plagueH4046 was on you all, and on your lordsH5633. {you: Heb. them}
Wherefore ye shall makeH6213 imagesH6754 of your emerodsH2914+H6076, and imagesH6754 of your miceH5909 that marH7843 the landH776; and ye shall giveH5414 gloryH3519 unto the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: peradventure he will lightenH7043 his handH3027 from off you, and from off your godsH430, and from off your landH776.
Wherefore then do ye hardenH3513 your heartsH3824, as the EgyptiansH4714 and PharaohH6547 hardenedH3513 their heartsH3820? when he had wrought wonderfullyH5953 among them, did they not let the people goH7971, and they departedH3212? {wonderfully: or, reproachfully} {the people: Heb. them}
Now therefore makeH6213 aH259 newH2319 cartH5699, and takeH3947 twoH8147 milchH5763 kineH6510, on which there hath comeH5927 no yokeH5923, and tieH631 the kineH6510 to the cartH5699, and bringH7725 their calvesH1121 homeH1004 from themH310:
And takeH3947 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and layH5414 it upon the cartH5699; and putH7760 the jewelsH3627 of goldH2091, which ye returnH7725 him for a trespass offeringH817, in a cofferH712 by the sideH6654 thereof; and send it awayH7971, that it may goH1980.
And seeH7200, if it goeth upH5927 by the wayH1870 of his own coastH1366 to BethshemeshH1053, then he hath doneH6213 us this greatH1419 evilH7451: but if not, then we shall knowH3045 that it is not his handH3027 that smoteH5060 us: it was a chanceH4745 that happened to usH1961. {he: or, it}
And the menH582 did soH6213; and tookH3947 twoH8147 milchH5763 kineH6510, and tiedH631 them to the cartH5699, and shut upH3607 their calvesH1121 at homeH1004:
And they laidH7760 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 upon the cartH5699, and the cofferH712 with the miceH5909 of goldH2091 and the imagesH6754 of their emerodsH2914.
And the kineH6510 took the straightH3474 wayH1870 to the wayH1870 of BethshemeshH1053, and went alongH1980 the highwayH4546+H259, lowingH1600 as they wentH1980, and turned not asideH5493 to the right handH3225 or to the leftH8040; and the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 wentH1980 afterH310 them unto the borderH1366 of BethshemeshH1053.
And they of BethshemeshH1053 were reapingH7114 their wheatH2406 harvestH7105 in the valleyH6010: and they lifted upH5375 their eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the arkH727, and rejoicedH8055 to seeH7200 it.
And the cartH5699 cameH935 into the fieldH7704 of JoshuaH3091, a BethshemiteH1030, and stoodH5975 there, where there was a greatH1419 stoneH68: and they claveH1234 the woodH6086 of the cartH5699, and offeredH5927 the kineH6510 a burnt offeringH5930 unto the LORDH3068.
And the LevitesH3881 took downH3381 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and the cofferH712 that was with it, wherein the jewelsH3627 of goldH2091 were, and putH7760 them on the greatH1419 stoneH68: and the menH582 of BethshemeshH1053 offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and sacrificedH2076 sacrificesH2077 the same dayH3117 unto the LORDH3068.
And when the fiveH2568 lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 had seenH7200 it, they returnedH7725 to EkronH6138 the same dayH3117.
And these are the goldenH2091 emerodsH2914 which the PhilistinesH6430 returnedH7725 for a trespass offeringH817 unto the LORDH3068; for AshdodH795 oneH259, for GazaH5804 oneH259, for AskelonH831 oneH259, for GathH1661 oneH259, for EkronH6138 oneH259;
And the goldenH2091 miceH5909, according to the numberH4557 of all the citiesH5892 of the PhilistinesH6430 belonging to the fiveH2568 lordsH5633, both of fencedH4013 citiesH5892, and of countryH6521 villagesH3724, even unto the greatH1419 stone of AbelH59, whereon they set downH3240 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068: which stone remaineth unto this dayH3117 in the fieldH7704 of JoshuaH3091, the BethshemiteH1030. {great…: or, great stone}
And he smoteH5221 the menH376 of BethshemeshH1053, because they had lookedH7200 into the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, even he smoteH5221 of the peopleH5971 fiftyH2572 thousandH505 and threescore and tenH7657 menH582: and the peopleH5971 lamentedH56, because the LORDH3068 had smittenH5221 many of the peopleH5971 with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347.
And the menH582 of BethshemeshH1053 saidH559, Who is ableH3201 to standH5975 beforeH6440 this holyH6918 LORDH3068 GodH430? and to whom shall he go upH5927 from us?
And they sentH7971 messengersH4397 to the inhabitantsH3427 of KirjathjearimH7157, sayingH559, The PhilistinesH6430 have brought againH7725 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068; come ye downH3381, and fetch it upH5927 to you.

And the LORDH3068 spakeH559 unto MosesH4872, SayH559 unto AaronH175, Stretch forthH5186 thine handH3027 with thy rodH4294 over the streamsH5104, over the riversH2975, and over the pondsH98, and cause frogsH6854 to come upH5927 upon the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto AchanH5912, My sonH1121, giveH7760, I pray thee, gloryH3519 to the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and makeH5414 confessionH8426 unto him; and tellH5046 me now what thou hast doneH6213; hideH3582 it not from me.
But the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was heavyH3513 upon them of AshdodH796, and he destroyedH8074 them, and smoteH5221 them with emerodsH2914+H6076, even AshdodH795 and the coastsH1366 thereof.
And when they of AshdodH796 arose earlyH7925 on the morrowH4283, behold, DagonH1712 was fallenH5307 upon his faceH6440 to the earthH776 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068. And they tookH3947 DagonH1712, and setH7725 him in his placeH4725 againH7725.
And they didH6213 so; for AaronH175 stretched outH5186 his handH3027 with his rodH4294, and smoteH5221 the dustH6083 of the earthH776, and it became liceH3654 in manH120, and in beastH929; all the dustH6083 of the landH776 became liceH3654 throughout all the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
As soon as they hearH8088+H241 of me, they shall obeyH8085 me: the strangersH1121+H5236 shall submitH3584 themselves unto me. {As soon…: Heb. At the hearing of the ear} {submit…: or, yield feigned obedience} {strangers: Heb. sons of the stranger}
So they sentH7971 and gathered togetherH622 all the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430, and saidH559, Send awayH7971 the arkH727 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and let it go againH7725 to his own placeH4725, that it slayH4191 us not, and our peopleH5971: for there was a deadlyH4194 destructionH4103 throughout all the cityH5892; the handH3027 of GodH430 was veryH3966 heavyH3513 there. {us not…: Heb. me not, and my}
And when they arose earlyH7925 on the morrowH4283 morningH1242, behold, DagonH1712 was fallenH5307 upon his faceH6440 to the groundH776 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068; and the headH7218 of DagonH1712 and bothH8147 the palmsH3709 of his handsH3027 were cut offH3772 upon the thresholdH4670; only the stump of DagonH1712 was leftH7604 to him. {the stump…: or, the fishy part}
And the LORDH3068 didH6213 so; and there cameH935 a grievousH3515 swarmH6157 of flies into the houseH1004 of PharaohH6547, and into his servants'H5650 housesH1004, and into all the landH776 of EgyptH4714: the landH776 was corruptedH7843 by reasonH6440 of the swarmH6157 of flies. {corrupted: or, destroyed}
SayH559 unto GodH430, How terribleH3372 art thou in thy worksH4639! through the greatnessH7230 of thy powerH5797 shall thine enemiesH341 submitH3584 themselves unto thee. {submit…: or, yield feigned obedience: Heb. lie}
For dayH3119 and nightH3915 thy handH3027 was heavyH3513 upon me: my moistureH3955 is turnedH2015 into the droughtH2725 of summerH7019. SelahH5542.
And when the menH582 of AshdodH795 sawH7200 that it was so, they saidH559, The arkH727 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 shall not abideH3427 with us: for his handH3027 is soreH7185 upon us, and upon DagonH1712 our godH430.
And the locustsH697 went upH5927 over all the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and restedH5117 in all the coastsH1366 of EgyptH4714: veryH3966 grievousH3515 were they; beforeH6440 them there were no suchH3651 locustsH697 as they, neither afterH310 them shall be such.
Let them giveH7760 gloryH3519 unto the LORDH3068, and declareH5046 his praiseH8416 in the islandsH339.
RemoveH5493 thy strokeH5061 awayH5493 from me: I am consumedH3615 by the blowH8409 of thine handH3027. {blow: Heb. conflict}
For I will passH5674 through the landH776 of EgyptH4714 this nightH3915, and will smiteH5221 all the firstbornH1060 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, both manH120 and beastH929; and against all the godsH430 of EgyptH4714 I will executeH6213 judgmentH8201: I am the LORDH3068. {gods: or, princes}
For they coveredH3680 the faceH5869 of the whole earthH776, so that the landH776 was darkenedH2821; and they did eatH398 every herbH6212 of the landH776, and all the fruitH6529 of the treesH6086 which the hailH1259 had leftH3498: and there remainedH3498 not any green thingH3418 in the treesH6086, or in the herbsH6212 of the fieldH7704, through all the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Only acknowledgeH3045 thine iniquityH5771, that thou hast transgressedH6586 against the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and hast scatteredH6340 thy waysH1870 to the strangersH2114 under every greenH7488 treeH6086, and ye have not obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
For the EgyptiansH4714 buriedH6912 all their firstbornH1060, which the LORDH3068 had smittenH5221 among them: upon their godsH430 also the LORDH3068 executedH6213 judgmentsH8201.
That which the palmerwormH1501 hath leftH3499 hath the locustH697 eatenH398; and that which the locustH697 hath leftH3499 hath the cankerwormH3218 eatenH398; and that which the cankerwormH3218 hath leftH3499 hath the caterpillerH2625 eatenH398. {That which the palmerworm…: Heb. The residue of the palmerworm}
AwakeH6974, ye drunkardsH7910, and weepH1058; and howlH3213, all ye drinkersH8354 of wineH3196, because of the new wineH6071; for it is cut offH3772 from your mouthH6310.
For a nationH1471 is come upH5927 upon my landH776, strongH6099, and without numberH4557, whose teethH8127 are the teethH8127 of a lionH738, and he hath the cheek teethH4973 of a great lionH3833.
He hath laidH7760 my vineH1612 wasteH8047, and barkedH7111 my fig treeH8384: he hath made it cleanH2834 bareH2834, and cast it awayH7993; the branchesH8299 thereof are made whiteH3835. {barked…: Heb. laid my fig tree for a barking}
GiveH5414 gloryH3519 to the LORDH3068 your GodH430, before he cause darknessH2821, and before your feetH7272 stumbleH5062 upon the darkH5399 mountainsH2022, and, while ye lookH6960 for lightH216, he turnH7760 it into the shadow of deathH6757, and makeH7896+H7896 it gross darknessH6205.
The burdenH4853 of EgyptH4714. Behold, the LORDH3068 ridethH7392 upon a swiftH7031 cloudH5645, and shall comeH935 into EgyptH4714: and the idolsH457 of EgyptH4714 shall be movedH5128 at his presenceH6440, and the heartH3824 of EgyptH4714 shall meltH4549 in the midstH7130 of it.
And I will restoreH7999 to you the yearsH8141 that the locustH697 hath eatenH398, the cankerwormH3218, and the caterpillerH2625, and the palmerwormH1501, my greatH1419 armyH2428 which I sentH7971 among you.
If ye will not hearH8085, and if ye will not layH7760 it to heartH3820, to giveH5414 gloryH3519 unto my nameH8034, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, I will even sendH7971 a curseH3994 upon you, and I will curseH779 your blessingsH1293: yea, I have cursedH779 them already, because ye do not layH7760 it to heartH3820.
ThenG3767 againG1208+G1537 called theyG5455 the manG444 thatG3739 wasG2258 blindG5185, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, GiveG1325 GodG2316 the praiseG1391: weG2249 knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG3778 manG444 isG2076 a sinnerG268.
