CHAP. V.
1 The Philistines having brought the ark into
Ashdod, set it in the house of Dagon. 3 Dagon
is smitten down and cut in pieces, and
they of Ashdod smitten with emerods. 8 So
God dealeth with them of Gath, when it was
brought thither; 10 and so with them of Ekron,
when it was brought thither.
1 And the Philistines took the ark of
God, and brought it from Eben-ezer
to Ashdod.
2 When the Philistines took the ark
of God, they brought it into the house of
Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
3 ¶2; And when they of Ashdod arose
early on the morrow, behold, Dagon had
fallen upon his face to the earth before
the ark of the Lord. And they took Dagon,
and set him in his place again.
4 And when they arose early on the
morrow morning, behold, Dagon had
fallen upon his face to the ground before
the ark of the Lord: and the head of
Dagon and both the palms of his hands
were cut off upon the threshold; only note the
stump of Dagon was left to him.
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon,
nor any that come into Dagon's
house, tread on the threshold of Dagon
in Ashdod to this day.
6 But the hand of the Lord was heavy
upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed
them, and smote them with note emerods,
even Ashdod, and its borders.
7 And when the men of Ashdod saw
that it was so, they said, The ark of the
God of Israel shall not abide with us: for
his hand is severe upon us, and upon Dagon
our god.
8 They sent therefore, and gathered
all the lords of the Philistines to them,
and said, What shall we do with the ark
of the God of Israel? And they answered,
Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried
about to Gath. And they carried the
ark of the God of Israel thither.
9 And it was so, that after they had
carried it thither, the hand of the Lord
was against the city with a very great
destruction: and he smote the men of the
city both small and great, and they had
emerods in their secret parts.
10 Therefore they sent the ark of God
to Ekron. And it came to pass as the
ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites
cried out, saying, They have
brought about the ark of the God of Israel
to us, to slay us and our people.
-- --
Before CHRIST, 1141.
11 So they sent and convened all the
lords of the Philistines, and said, Send
away the ark of the God of Israel, and
let it go again to its own place, that it slay
us not, and our people: for there was a
deadly destruction throughout all the
city; the hand of God was very heavy
there.
12 And the men that died not, were
smitten with the emerods: and the cry of
the city went up to heaven.
