1 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Ebenezer unto Ashdod.

1 וּפְלִשְׁתִּים֙ לָֽקְח֔וּ אֵ֖ת אֲרֹ֣ון הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיְבִאֻ֛הוּ מֵאֶ֥בֶן הָעֵ֖זֶר אַשְׁדֹּֽודָה׃

2 When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.

2 וַיִּקְח֤וּ פְלִשְׁתִּים֙ אֶת־אֲרֹ֣ון הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים וַיָּבִ֥יאוּ אֹתֹ֖ו בֵּ֣ית דָּגֹ֑ון וַיַּצִּ֥יגוּ אֹתֹ֖ו אֵ֥צֶל דָּגֹֽון׃

3 And when they of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.

3 וַיַּשְׁכִּ֤מוּ אַשְׁדֹּודִים֙ מִֽמָּחֳרָ֔ת וְהִנֵּ֣ה דָגֹ֗ון נֹפֵ֤ל לְפָנָיו֙ אַ֔רְצָה לִפְנֵ֖י אֲרֹ֣ון יְהוָ֑ה וַיִּקְחוּ֙ אֶת־דָּגֹ֔ון וַיָּשִׁ֥בוּ אֹתֹ֖ו לִמְקֹומֹֽו׃

4 And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.

4 וַיַּשְׁכִּ֣מוּ בַבֹּקֶר֮ מִֽמָּחֳרָת֒ וְהִנֵּ֣ה דָגֹ֗ון נֹפֵ֤ל לְפָנָיו֙ אַ֔רְצָה לִפְנֵ֖י אֲרֹ֣ון יְהוָ֑ה וְרֹ֨אשׁ דָּגֹ֜ון וּשְׁתֵּ֣י׀ כַּפֹּ֣ות יָדָ֗יו כְּרֻתֹות֙ אֶל־הַמִּפְתָּ֔ן רַ֥ק דָּגֹ֖ון נִשְׁאַ֥ר עָלָֽיו׃

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 עַל־כֵּ֡ן לֹֽא־יִדְרְכוּ֩ כֹהֲנֵ֨י דָגֹ֜ון וְכָֽל־הַבָּאִ֧ים בֵּית־דָּגֹ֛ון עַל־מִפְתַּ֥ן דָּגֹ֖ון בְּאַשְׁדֹּ֑וד עַ֖ד הַיֹּ֥ום הַזֶּֽה׃

6 But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, even Ashdod and the coasts thereof.

6 וַתִּכְבַּ֧ד יַד־יְהוָ֛ה אֶל־הָאַשְׁדֹּודִ֖ים וַיְשִׁמֵּ֑ם וַיַּ֤ךְ אֹתָם֙ בָּעֳפָלִים בַּטְּחֹרִ֔יםa אֶת־אַשְׁדֹּ֖וד וְאֶת־גְּבוּלֶֽיהָ׃

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 וַיִּרְא֥וּ אַנְשֵֽׁי־אַשְׁדֹּ֖וד כִּֽי־כֵ֑ן וְאָמְר֗וּ לֹֽא־יֵשֵׁ֞ב אֲרֹ֨ון אֱלֹהֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ עִמָּ֔נוּ כִּֽי־קָשְׁתָ֤ה יָדֹו֙ עָלֵ֔ינוּ וְעַ֖ל דָּגֹ֥ון אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃

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 וַיִּשְׁלְח֡וּ וַיַּאַסְפוּ֩ אֶת־כָּל־סַרְנֵ֨י פְלִשְׁתִּ֜ים אֲלֵיהֶ֗ם וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ֙ מַֽה־נַּעֲשֶׂ֗ה לַֽאֲרֹון֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיֹּ֣אמְר֔וּ גַּ֣ת יִסֹּ֔ב אֲרֹ֖ון אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיַּסֵּ֕בּוּ אֶת־אֲרֹ֖ון אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

9 And it was so, that, after they had carried it about, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction: and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts.

9 וַיְהִ֞י אַחֲרֵ֣י׀ הֵסַ֣בּוּ אֹתֹ֗ו וַתְּהִ֨י יַד־יְהוָ֤ה׀ בָּעִיר֙ מְהוּמָה֙ גְּדֹולָ֣ה מְאֹ֔ד וַיַּךְ֙ אֶת־אַנְשֵׁ֣י הָעִ֔יר מִקָּטֹ֖ן וְעַד־גָּדֹ֑ול וַיִּשָּׂתְר֥וּ לָהֶ֖ם עֳפָלִים טְחֹרִֽים׃

10 Therefore 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 וַֽיְשַׁלְּח֛וּ אֶת־אֲרֹ֥ון הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים עֶקְרֹ֑ון וַיְהִ֗י כְּבֹ֨וא אֲרֹ֤ון הָאֱלֹהִים֙ עֶקְרֹ֔ון וַיִּזְעֲק֨וּ הָֽעֶקְרֹנִ֜ים לֵאמֹ֗ר הֵסַ֤בּוּ אֵלַי֙ אֶת־אֲרֹון֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל לַהֲמִיתֵ֖נִי וְאֶת־עַמִּֽי׃

11 So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to his own place, that it slay us not, and our people: for there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.

11 וַיִּשְׁלְח֨וּ וַיַּאַסְפ֜וּ אֶת־כָּל־סַרְנֵ֣י פְלִשְׁתִּ֗ים וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ֙ שַׁלְּח֞וּ אֶת־אֲרֹ֨ון אֱלֹהֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְיָשֹׁ֣ב לִמְקֹמֹ֔ו וְלֹֽא־יָמִ֥ית אֹתִ֖י וְאֶת־עַמִּ֑י כִּֽי־הָיְתָ֤ה מְהֽוּמַת־מָ֙וֶת֙ בְּכָל־הָעִ֔יר כָּבְדָ֥ה מְאֹ֛ד יַ֥ד הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים שָֽׁם׃

12 And the men that died not were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the city went up to heaven.

12 וְהָֽאֲנָשִׁים֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹא־מֵ֔תוּ הֻכּ֖וּ בָּעֳפָלִים בַּטְּחֹרִ֑יםa וַתַּ֛עַל שַֽׁוְעַ֥ת הָעִ֖יר הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
