Chap. IIII.
The Israelites are beaten in batle by the Philisthijms. 3. VVho for their better
protection and comfort, fetch the Arke of God into the campe: 10. but
are beaten againe, the Arke taken, and with manie others the two sonnes
of Heli are slaine. 13. Al which Heli vnderstanding falleth from his
seate, and breaketh his neck: 19. also his daughter in law presently traueling
of childe is deliuered of a sonne.
1 And it came to passe in those daies, the Philisthijms
assembled together to fight: and Israel went forth to
meete the Philisthims into battle, & camped beside the Stone
of helpe. Moreouer the Philisthijms came into Aphec,
2 and
put their armie in aray against Israel. And after they had ioyned
battle, Israel turned their backes to the Philisthims: and
there were slaine in the fight here and there through the fieldes,
as it were foure thousand men.
3 And the people returned
to the campe: and the ancientes of Israel said: Why hath
our Lord stricken vs to day before the Philisthijms? noteLet vs
fetch vnto vs the arke of the couenant of our Lord from Silo,
and let it come into the middes of vs, that it may saue vs from
the hand of our enemies.
4 The people therefore sent into
Silo, and they tooke from thence the arke of the couenant of
the Lord of hostes sitting vpon the Cherubims: and the two
sonnes of Heli were with the arke of the couenant of
God, Ophni and Phinees.
5 And when the arke of the
couenant of our Lord was come into the campe, al Israel made
a shoute with a great crie, and the earth sounded.
6 And
-- --
Heli dieth.
the Philisthims heard the voice of the crie, and said: What is
this voice of a great crie in the campe of the Hebrewes? And
they knewe that the arke of our Lord was come into the
campe.
7 And the Philisthijms were afrayd, saing: God is
come into the campe. And they mourned, saing:
8 Woe to vs:
for there was not so great reioysing yesterday and the day before:
woe to vs. Who shal keepe vs from the hand of these
high Goddes? these be the Goddes, that stricke Ægypt with al
plague, in the desert.
9 Take courage, and be men, ye Philisthijms:
lest you be seruantes to the Hebrewes, as they also
haue ferued you: take courage and fight.
10 The Philisthijms
therfore fought, and Israel was slaine, and euerie man fled
into his tabernacle: and there was made an exeeding great
plague: and there fel of Israel thirtie thousand footemen.
11 And the arke of God was taken: the two sonnes also of
Heli died, Ophni and Phinees.
12 And a man of Beniamin
running out of the battle aray, came into Silo that day, his
garment rent, and sprinkled on his head with dust.
13 And
when he was come, Heli sate vpon a stoole ouer against the
way looking. For his hart was fearful for the arke of God.
And that man after he was entred in, told it to the citie: and
al the citie howled.
14 And Heli heard the sound of the crie,
and said: What is this sound of this same tumult? But he hastened,
and came, and told Heli.
15 And Heli was nintie and
eight yeares old, and his eyes were dimme, and he could not
see.
16 And he said to Heli: I am he that came from the battle,
and I he that fled out of the field this day. To whom he said:
What is done my sonne?
17 And he brought the newes answering:
Israel, quoth he, is fled before the Philisthijms, and a
great ruine is made in the people: moreouer also thy two
sonnes are dead, Ophni and Phinees: and the arke of God is
taken.
18 And when he had note named the arke of God, he fel
from his stoole backward beside the doore, & his necke being
broken he died. For he was an old man, and of a great age:
and he iudged Israel fourtie yeares.
19 And his daughter in
law, the wife of Phinees was great with childe, and nigh to
be deliuered: and hearing the reporte that the arke of God
was taken, and her father in law was dead, and her husband,
she bowed her self and was deliuered: for sudden paynes
were fallen vpon her.
20 And in the very moment of her
death, they said to her that stoode about her: Feare not
-- --
Samuel.
because thou hast borne a sonne. Who answered them not,
nor gaue heede to it.
21 And she called the childe Ichabod,
saing: The glorie is translated from Israel, because the arke
of God is taken, and for her father in law, and for her husband;
22 and she said: The glorie is translated from Israel,
for that the arke of God was taken.
