1 Samuel 4:12-22

And there ran
<07323> (8799)
a man
<0376>
of Benjamin
<01144>
out of the army
<04634>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Shiloh
<07887>
the same day
<03117>
with his clothes
<04055>
rent
<07167> (8803)_,
and with earth
<0127>
upon his head
<07218>_.
And when he came
<0935> (8799)_,
lo, Eli
<05941>
sat
<03427> (8802)
upon a seat
<03678>
by the wayside
<01870> <03027> (8675) <03197>
watching
<06822> (8764)_:
for his heart
<03820>
trembled
<02730>
for the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>_.
And when the man
<0376>
came
<0935> (8802)
into the city
<05892>_,
and told
<05046> (8687)
[it], all the city
<05892>
cried out
<02199> (8799)_.
And when Eli
<05941>
heard
<08085> (8799)
the noise
<06963>
of the crying
<06818>_,
he said
<0559> (8799)_,
What [meaneth] the noise
<06963>
of this tumult
<01995>_?
And the man
<0376>
came
<0935> (8799)
in hastily
<04116> (8765)_,
and told
<05046> (8686)
Eli
<05941>_.
Now Eli
<05941>
was ninety
<08673>
and eight
<08083>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>_;
and his eyes
<05869>
were dim
<06965> (8804)_,
that he could
<03201> (8804)
not see
<07200> (8800)_.
{were dim: Heb. stood}
And the man
<0376>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Eli
<05941>_,
I [am] he that came
<0935> (8802)
out of the army
<04634>_,
and I fled
<05127> (8804)
to day
<03117>
out of the army
<04634>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
What is there done
<01697>_,
my son
<01121>_?
{is...: Heb. is the thing}
And the messenger
<01319> (8764)
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Israel
<03478>
is fled
<05127> (8804)
before
<06440>
the Philistines
<06430>_,
and there hath been also a great
<01419>
slaughter
<04046>
among the people
<05971>_,
and thy two
<08147>
sons
<01121>
also, Hophni
<02652>
and Phinehas
<06372>_,
are dead
<04191> (8804)_,
and the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
is taken
<03947> (8738)_.
And it came to pass, when he made mention
<02142> (8687)
of the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>_,
that he fell
<05307> (8799)
from off the seat
<03678>
backward
<0322>
by
<01157>
the side
<03027>
of the gate
<08179>_,
and his neck
<04665>
brake
<07665> (8735)_,
and he died
<04191> (8799)_:
for he was an old
<02204> (8804)
man
<0376>_,
and heavy
<03513> (8804)_.
And he had judged
<08199> (8804)
Israel
<03478>
forty
<0705>
years
<08141>_.
And his daughter in law
<03618>_,
Phinehas
<06372>_'
wife
<0802>_,
was with child
<02030>_,
[near] to be delivered
<03205> (8800)_:
and when she heard
<08085> (8799)
the tidings
<08052>
that
<0413>
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
was taken
<03947> (8736)_,
and that her father in law
<02524>
and her husband
<0376>
were dead
<04191> (8804)_,
she bowed
<03766> (8799)
herself and travailed
<03205> (8799)_;
for her pains
<06735>
came
<02015> (8738)
upon her. {be delivered: or, cry out} {came: Heb. were turned}
And about the time
<06256>
of her death
<04191> (8800)
the women that stood
<05324> (8737)
by her said
<01696> (8762)
unto her, Fear
<03372> (8799)
not; for thou hast born
<03205> (8804)
a son
<01121>_.
But she answered
<06030> (8804)
not, neither did she regard
<07896> (8804) <03820>
[it]. {neither...: Heb. set not her heart}
And she named
<07121> (8799)
the child
<05288>
Ichabod
<0350>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The glory
<03519>
is departed
<01540> (8804)
from Israel
<03478>_:
because
<0413>
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
was taken
<03947> (8736)_,
and because of her father in law
<02524>
and her husband
<0376>_.
{Ichabod: that is, Where is the glory? or, There is no glory}
And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
The glory
<03519>
is departed
<01540> (8804)
from Israel
<03478>_:
for the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
is taken
<03947> (8738)_.
