1 Samuel 6:16-18

Context
6:16 The five leaders of the Philistines watched what was happening and then returned to Ekron on the same day.

6:17 These are the gold sores that the Philistines brought as a guilt offering to the Lord – one for each of the following cities: Ashdod, Gaza, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron. 6:18 The gold mice corresponded in number to all the Philistine cities of the five leaders, from the fortified cities to hamlet villages, to greater Abel, 1  where they positioned the ark of the Lord until this very day in the field of Joshua who was from Beth Shemesh.

1 tc A few Hebrew mss and the LXX read “villages; the large rock…[is witness] until this very day.”
