١ صموئيل 5

1 فاخذ الفلسطينيون تابوت الله واتوا به من حجر المعونة الى اشدود.

2 واخذ الفلسطينيون تابوت الله وادخلوه الى بيت داجون واقاموه بقرب داجون.

3 وبكر الاشدوديون في الغد واذا بداجون ساقط على وجهه الى الارض امام تابوت الرب. فاخذوا داجون واقاموه في مكانه.

4 وبكروا صباحا في الغد واذا بداجون ساقط على وجهه على الارض امام تابوت الرب وراس داجون ويداه مقطوعة على العتبة. بقي بدن السمكة فقط.

5 لذلك لا يدوس كهنة داجون وجميع الداخلين الى بيت داجون على عتبة داجون في اشدود الى هذا اليوم

6 فثقلت يد الرب على الاشدوديين واخربهم وضربهم بالبواسير في اشدود وتخومها.

7 ولما رأى اهل اشدود الامر كذلك قالوا لا يمكث تابوت اله اسرائيل عندنا لان يده قد قست علينا وعلى داجون الهنا.

8 فارسلوا وجمعوا جميع اقطاب الفلسطينيين اليهم وقالوا ماذا نصنع بتابوت اله اسرائيل. فقالوا لينقل تابوت اله اسرائيل الى جتّ. فنقلوا تابوت اله اسرائيل.

9 وكان بعد ما نقلوه ان يد الرب كانت على المدينة باضطراب عظيم جدا وضرب اهل المدينة من الصغير الى الكبير ونفرت لهم البواسير.

10 فارسلوا تابوت الله الى عقرون. وكان لما دخل تابوت الله الى عقرون انه صرخ العقرونيون قائلين قد نقلوا الينا تابوت اله اسرائيل لكي يميتونا نحن وشعبنا.

11 وارسلوا وجمعوا كل اقطاب الفلسطينيين وقالوا ارسلوا تابوت اله اسرائيل فيرجع الى مكانه ولا يميتنا نحن وشعبنا لان اضطراب الموت كان في كل المدينة. يد الله كانت ثقيلة جدا هناك.

12 والناس الذين لم يموتوا ضربوا بالبواسير فصعد صراخ المدينة الى السماء

59. What we have said about the law’s promulgation, holiness and power in no. 55 above, may be found in the Word in the following passages:

That Jehovah descended onto Mount Sinai in fire, and that the mountain smoked and quaked then, and that there were thunderings, lightnings, a thick cloud, and the sound of a trumpet, see Exodus 19:16, 18, and Deuteronomy 4:11, 5:19-23.

That before Jehovah descended, the people readied themselves and sanctified themselves for three days, see Exodus 19:10-11, 15.

That bounds were set around the mountain to keep anyone from drawing near and approaching its base, on pain of death, and that not even the priests were to approach, but only Moses, see Exodus 19:12-13, 20-23, 24:1-2.

For the law promulgated from Mount Sinai, see Exodus 20:2-14, Deuteronomy 5:6-21.

That the law was written on two tablets of stone with the finger of God, see Exodus 31:18, 32:15-16, Deuteronomy 9:10.

That when Moses brought those tablets down from the mountain a second time, his face shone, see Exodus 34:29-35.

That the tablets were placed in the Ark, see Exodus 25:16, 40:20, Deuteronomy 10:5 and 1 Kings 8:9.

That on the Ark was set a mercy seat, and placed on this were cherubim of gold, see Exodus 25:17-21.

[2] That the Ark, together with the mercy seat and cherubim, constituted the inmost constituents of the Tabernacle, and that the golden lampstand, the golden altar of incense, and the table overlaid with gold which held the showbread constituted its outer constituents, and the ten curtains of linen, purple and scarlet its outmost constituents, see Exodus 25,26, 40:17-28.

That the place where the Ark was, was called the holy of holies or most holy place, see Exodus 26:33.

That the Israelite people all camped in order by tribes about the place where it resided, and set out in order after it, see Numbers 2.

That a cloud then stood over its abode by day, and fire by night, see Exodus 40:38, Numbers 9:15-16, 14:14, and Deuteronomy 1:33.

That the Lord spoke with Moses from above the Ark between the cherubim, see Exodus 25:22 and Numbers 7:89.

That because of the law it contained, the Ark was called the abode of Jehovah, for whenever the Ark set out Moses said, “Rise up, O Jehovah!” and when it rested, “Return, O Jehovah!” see Numbers 10:35-36, and also 2 Samuel 6:2, Psalms 132:7-8.

That because of the holiness of that law, Aaron was permitted to enter within the veil only with sacrifices and incense, see Leviticus 16:2-14ff.

That David brought the Ark into Zion with sacrifices and jubilation, see 2 Samuel 6:1-19. That Uzzah later died because he touched it, see verses 6 and 7 in that same chapter.

That the Ark was placed in the midst of the Temple in Jerusalem, where it constituted its inner sanctuary, see 1 Kings 6:19ff., 8:3-9.

[3] That because of the Lord’s presence and power in the law contained in the Ark, the Jordan’s waters were parted, and as long as the Ark rested in the midst of it, the people crossed over on dry ground, see Joshua 3:1-17, 4:5-20.

That the Ark’s being carried around caused the walls of Jericho to fall, see Joshua 6:1-20.

That Dagon, the Philistine god, fell down before the Ark, and after that lay at the threshold of the shrine with its head broken off, see 1 Samuel 5:1-4.

That because of the Ark many thousands of the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh were struck, see 1 Samuel 6:19.
