| [1]Now the Philistines had taken the ark of God, and they brought it from Eben-ezer unto Ashdod. |
[1]And the Philistines toke the arke of God, and caryed it from the Eben ezer vnto Asdod |
| [2]And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon. |
[2]Yea the Philistines toke the arke of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon |
| [3]And when they of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again. |
[3]And when they of Asdod were vp in the next daye in the mornyng, beholde, Dagon was fallen vpon his face on the earth before the arke of the Lorde: And they toke Dagon, and set him in his place agayne |
| [4]And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands lay cut off upon threshold; only the trunk of Dagon was left to him. |
[4]And when they were come earlie in the next morning, beholde, Dagon was fallen vpon his face on the grounde before the arke of the Lorde, and his head and his two handes cut of vpon the thresholde, that onely the stumpe 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 unto this day. |
[5]And therfore is it, that the priestes of Dagon, neither any man that commeth into Dagons house, treade not on the thresholde of Dagon in Asdod, vnto this day |
| [6]But the hand of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and He destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, even Ashdod and the borders thereof. |
[6]But the hand of the Lorde was heauie vpon them of Asdod, and he destroyed them, and smote them with emerodes, both Asdod, and all the coastes thereof |
| [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 sore upon us, and upon Dagon our god.' |
[7]And when the men of Asdod sawe that it was so, they saide: The arke of the God of Israel shal not abide here with vs, for his hand is sore vpon vs, & vpon Dagon our God |
| [8]They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto 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 unto Gath.' And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about thither. |
[8]They sent therfore, and gathered all the lordes of the Philistines vnto them, and saide: What shall we do with the arke of the God of Israel? They aunswered: Let the arke of the God of Israel be caryed about vnto Gath. And they caried the arke of the God of Israel about |
| [9]And it was so, that, after they had carried it about, the hand of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 was against the city with a very great discomfiture; and He smote the men of the city, both small and great, and emerods broke out upon them. |
[9]And when they had caryed it about, the hand of the Lorde was agaynst the citie with a very great destruction, and he smote the men of the citie both small and great, and they had emerodes in their secrete partes |
| [10]So 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.' |
[10]Therfore they sent the arke of God to Acaron: and assoone as the arke of God came to Acaron, the Acaronites cryed out, saying: They haue brought the arke of the God of Israel to vs, to slea vs, and our people |
| [11]They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said: 'Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its own place, that it slay us not, and our people'; for there was a deadly discomfiture throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there. |
[11]And so they sent, and gathered together al the lordes of the Philistines, and saide: Send away the arke of the God of Israel, to go agayne to his owne place, that it slea vs not, and our people. For there was a destruction and death thorowout all the citie, and the hand of God was exceeding sore there |
| [12]And the men that died not were smitten with the emerods; and the cry of the city went up to heaven. |
[12]And the men that dyed not, were smitten with the emerodes: And the crye of the citie went vp to heauen |
