King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. And the word[H1697] of Samuel[H8050] came[H1961] to all[H3605] Israel.[H3478] Now Israel[H3478] went out[H3318] against[H7125] the Philistines[H6430] to battle,[H4421] and pitched[H2583] beside[H5921] Ebenezer:[H72] and the Philistines[H6430] pitched[H2583] in Aphek.[H663]

2. And the Philistines[H6430] put themselves in array[H6186] against[H7125] Israel:[H3478] and when they joined[H5203] battle,[H4421] Israel[H3478] was smitten[H5062] before[H6440] the Philistines:[H6430] and they slew[H5221] of the army[H4634] in the field[H7704] about four[H702] thousand[H505] men.[H376]

3. And when the people[H5971] were come[H935] into[H413] the camp,[H4264] the elders[H2205] of Israel[H3478] said,[H559] Wherefore[H4100] hath the LORD[H3068] smitten[H5062] us today[H3117] before[H6440] the Philistines?[H6430] Let us fetch[H3947] [H853] the ark[H727] of the covenant[H1285] of the LORD[H3068] out of Shiloh[H4480] [H7887] unto[H413] us, that, when it cometh[H935] among[H7130] us, it may save[H3467] us out of the hand[H4480] [H3709] of our enemies.[H341]

4. So the people[H5971] sent[H7971] to Shiloh,[H7887] that they might bring[H5375] from thence[H4480] [H8033] [H853] the ark[H727] of the covenant[H1285] of the LORD[H3068] of hosts,[H6635] which dwelleth[H3427] between the cherubims:[H3742] and the two[H8147] sons[H1121] of Eli,[H5941] Hophni[H2652] and Phinehas,[H6372] were there[H8033] with[H5973] the ark[H727] of the covenant[H1285] of God.[H430]

5. And when the ark[H727] of the covenant[H1285] of the LORD[H3068] came[H935] into[H413] the camp,[H4264] all[H3605] Israel[H3478] shouted[H7321] with a great[H1419] shout,[H8643] so that the earth[H776] rang[H1949] again.

6. And when the Philistines[H6430] heard[H8085] [H853] the noise[H6963] of the shout,[H8643] they said,[H559] What[H4100] meaneth the noise[H6963] of this[H2063] great[H1419] shout[H8643] in the camp[H4264] of the Hebrews?[H5680] And they understood[H3045] that[H3588] the ark[H727] of the LORD[H3068] was come[H935] into[H413] the camp.[H4264]

7. And the Philistines[H6430] were afraid,[H3372] for[H3588] they said,[H559] God[H430] is come[H935] into[H413] the camp.[H4264] And they said,[H559] Woe[H188] unto us! for[H3588] there hath not[H3808] been[H1961] such a thing[H2063] heretofore.[H865] [H8032]

8. Woe[H188] unto us! who[H4310] shall deliver[H5337] us out of the hand[H4480] [H3027] of these[H428] mighty[H117] Gods?[H430] these[H428] are the Gods[H430] that smote[H5221] [H853] the Egyptians[H4714] with all[H3605] the plagues[H4347] in the wilderness.[H4057]

9. Be strong,[H2388] and quit[H1961] yourselves like men,[H376] O ye Philistines,[H6430] that ye be not servants[H3645] [H5647] unto the Hebrews,[H5680] as[H834] they have been[H5647] to you: quit[H1961] yourselves like men,[H376] and fight.[H3898]

10. And the Philistines[H6430] fought,[H3898] and Israel[H3478] was smitten,[H5062] and they fled[H5127] every man[H376] into his tent:[H168] and there was[H1961] a very[H3966] great[H1419] slaughter;[H4347] for there fell[H5307] of Israel[H4480] [H3478] thirty[H7970] thousand[H505] footmen.[H7273]

11. And the ark[H727] of God[H430] was taken;[H3947] and the two[H8147] sons[H1121] of Eli,[H5941] Hophni[H2652] and Phinehas,[H6372] were slain.[H4191]

12. And there ran[H7323] a man[H376] of Benjamin[H1144] out of the army,[H4480] [H4634] and came[H935] to Shiloh[H7887] the same[H1931] day[H3117] with his clothes[H4055] rent,[H7167] and with earth[H127] upon[H5921] his head.[H7218]

13. And when he came,[H935] lo,[H2009] Eli[H5941] sat[H3427] upon[H5921] a seat[H3678] by the wayside[H3197] [H1870] watching:[H6822] for[H3588] his heart[H3820] trembled[H2730] for[H5921] the ark[H727] of God.[H430] And when the man[H376] came[H935] into the city,[H5892] and told[H5046] it, all[H3605] the city[H5892] cried out.[H2199]

14. And when Eli[H5941] heard[H8085] [H853] the noise[H6963] of the crying,[H6818] he said,[H559] What[H4100] meaneth the noise[H6963] of this[H2088] tumult?[H1995] And the man[H376] came[H935] in hastily,[H4116] and told[H5046] Eli.[H5941]

15. Now Eli[H5941] was ninety[H8375] and eight[H8083] years[H8141] old;[H1121] and his eyes[H5869] were dim,[H6965] that he could[H3201] not[H3808] see.[H7200]

16. And the man[H376] said[H559] unto[H413] Eli,[H5941] I[H595] am he that came[H935] out of[H4480] the army,[H4634] and I[H589] fled[H5127] today[H3117] out of[H4480] the army.[H4634] And he said,[H559] What[H4100] is[H1961] there done,[H1697] my son?[H1121]

17. And the messenger[H1319] answered[H6030] and said,[H559] Israel[H3478] is fled[H5127] before[H6440] the Philistines,[H6430] and there hath been[H1961] also[H1571] a great[H1419] slaughter[H4046] among the people,[H5971] and thy two[H8147] sons[H1121] also,[H1571] Hophni[H2652] and Phinehas,[H6372] are dead,[H4191] and the ark[H727] of God[H430] is taken.[H3947]

18. And it came to pass,[H1961] when he made mention[H2142] of[H853] the ark[H727] of God,[H430] that he fell[H5307] from off[H4480] [H5921] the seat[H3678] backward[H322] by[H1157] the side[H3027] of the gate,[H8179] and his neck[H4665] broke,[H7665] and he died:[H4191] for[H3588] he was an old[H2204] man,[H376] and heavy.[H3515] And he[H1931] had judged[H8199] [H853] Israel[H3478] forty[H705] years.[H8141]

19. And his daughter-in-law,[H3618] Phinehas'[H6372] wife,[H802] was with child,[H2030] near to be delivered:[H3205] and when she heard[H8085] [H853] the tidings[H8052] that the ark[H727] of God[H430] was taken,[H3947] and that her father-in-law[H2524] and her husband[H376] were dead,[H4191] she bowed herself[H3766] and travailed;[H3205] for[H3588] her pains[H6735] came[H2015] upon[H5921] her.

20. And about the time[H6256] of her death[H4191] the women that stood[H5324] by her said[H1696] unto[H5921] her, Fear[H3372] not;[H408] for[H3588] thou hast born[H3205] a son.[H1121] But she answered[H6030] not,[H3808] neither[H3808] did she regard[H7896] [H3820] it.

21. And she named[H7121] the child[H5288] Ichabod,[H350] saying,[H559] The glory[H3519] is departed[H1540] from Israel:[H4480] [H3478] because[H413] the ark[H727] of God[H430] was taken,[H3947] and because[H413] of her father-in-law[H2524] and her husband.[H376]

22. And she said,[H559] The glory[H3519] is departed[H1540] from Israel:[H4480] [H3478] for[H3588] the ark[H727] of God[H430] is taken.[H3947]
