Chapter 6
1 I beše kovčeg Gospodnji u zemlji filistejskoj sedam meseci.
2 Tada dozvaše Filisteji sveštenike i vrače, pa im rekoše: Šta ćemo činiti s kovčegom Gospodnjim? Naučite nas kako ćemo ga poslati natrag na njegovo mesto.
3 A oni rekoše: Ako ćete natrag poslati kovčeg Boga Izrailjevog, ne šaljite ga praznog, nego uza nj podajte prinos za greh; tada ćete ozdraviti i doznaćete zašto se ruka Njegova nije odmakla od vas.
4 A oni rekoše: Kakav ćemo mu dati prinos za greh? A oni rekoše: Prema broju kneževina filistejskih pet zlatnih šuljeva i pet zlatnih miševa; jer je zlo jednako na svima vama i na knezovima vašim.
5 Načinite dakle slike od svojih šuljeva i slike od miševa koji kvare zemlju, i podajte slavu Bogu Izrailjevom. Može biti da će olakšati ruku svoju nad vama i nad bogovima vašim i nad zemljom vašom.
6 I zašto biste bili upornog srca kao što behu upornog srca Misirci i Faraon? I pošto učini čudesa na njima, eda li ih tada ne pustiše, te otidoše?
7 Zato načinite jedna kola nova, i uzmite dve krave dojilice, na kojima još nije bio jaram, pa upregnite krave u kola, a telad njihovu odvedite od njih kući.
8 Pa uzmite kovčeg Gospodnji i metnite ga na kola; a zaklade zlatne što ćete mu dati za greh metnite u kovčežić pokraj njega, i pustite ga neka ide.
9 I gledajte: ako pođe putem k međi svojoj u Vet-Semes, On nam je učinio ovo veliko zlo; ako li ne pođe tako, onda ćemo znati da nas se nije dohvatila ruka Njegova, nego nam se dogodilo slučajno.
10 I učiniše tako oni ljudi; i uzevši dve krave dojilice upregoše ih u kola, a telad njihovu zatvoriše kod kuće.
11 I metnuše kovčeg Gospodnji na kola, i mali kovčežić s mišima zlatnim i sa slikama svojih šuljeva.
12 I pođoše krave pravo putem u Vet-Semes, i jednako iđahu istim putem mučući i ne svrćući ni na desno ni na levo; a knezovi filistejski iđahu za njima do međe vet-semeške.
13 A Vet-Semešani žnjahu pšenicu u dolini, i podigavši oči svoje videše kovčeg, i obradovaše se videvši ga.
14 I dođoše kola na njivu Isusa Vet-Semešanina, i stadoše onde. A beše onde velik kamen; i iscepaše drva od kola, i prinesoše one krave na žrtvu paljenicu Gospodu.
15 A Leviti snimivši kovčeg Gospodnji i kovčežić što beše pokraj njega, u kome behu zakladi zlatni, metnuše na onaj veliki kamen; a ljudi iz Vet-Semesa gotoviše žrtve paljenice i prinesoše žrtve Gospodu onaj dan.
16 A to videvši pet knezova filistejskih vratiše se u Akaron isti dan.
17 A ovo behu zlatni šuljevi koje dadoše Filisteji Gospodu za greh: za Azot jedan, za Gazu jedan, za Askalon jedan, za Gat jedan, za Akaron jedan.
18 I miši zlatni behu prema broju svih gradova filistejskih, u pet kneževina, svih zidanih gradova i sela neograđenih do velikog kamena, na koji metnuše kovčeg Gospodnji, i koji je i danas u polju Isusa Vet-Semešanina.
19 Ali pobi Gospod neke između Vet-Semešana koji zagledaše u kovčeg Gospodnji, i pobi iz naroda pedeset hiljada i sedamdeset ljudi. I plaka narod što ga Gospod udari velikom pogiblju.
20 I ljudi iz Vet-Semesa rekoše: Ko može ostati pred tim Gospodom Bogom Svetim? I ka kome će otići od nas?
21 I poslaše poslanike k stanovnicima kirijat-jarimskim govoreći: Donesoše natrag Filisteji kovčeg Gospodnji, hodite, odnesite ga k sebi.

1 Samuel

Chapter 6
1 And the ark of the LORD was in the country of the Philistines seven months.
2 And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do to the ark of the LORD? tell us wherewith we shall send it to his place.
3 And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not empty; but in any wise return him a trespass offering: then ye shall be healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from you.
4 Then said they, What shall be the trespass offering which we shall return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods, and five golden mice, according to the number of the lords of the Philistines: for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.
5 Wherefore ye shall make images of your emerods, and images of your mice that mar the land; and ye shall give glory unto the God of Israel: peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.
6 Wherefore then do ye harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? when he had wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed?
7 Now therefore make a new cart, and take two milch kine, on which there hath come no yoke, and tie the kine to the cart, and bring their calves home from them:
8 And take the ark of the LORD, and lay it upon the cart; and put the jewels of gold, which ye return him for a trespass offering, in a coffer by the side thereof; and send it away, that it may go.
9 And see, if it goeth up by the way of his own coast to Beth-shemesh, then he hath done us this great evil: but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that smote us; it was a chance that happened to us.
10 ¶ And the men did so; and took two milch kine, and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home:
11 And they laid the ark of the LORD upon the cart, and the coffer with the mice of gold and the images of their emerods.
12 And the kine took the straight way to the way of Beth-shemesh, and went along the highway, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them unto the border of Beth-shemesh.
13 And they of Beth-shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley: and they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.
14 And the cart came into the field of Joshua, a Beth-shemite, and stood there, where there was a great stone: and they clave the wood of the cart, and offered the kine a burnt offering unto the LORD.
15 And the Levites took down the ark of the LORD, and the coffer that was with it, wherein the jewels of gold were, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day unto the LORD.
16 And when the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to Ekron the same day.
17 And these are the golden emerods which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering unto the LORD; for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Askelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;
18 And the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fenced cities, and of country villages, even unto the great stone of Abel, whereon they set down the ark of the LORD: which stone remaineth unto this day in the field of Joshua, the Beth-shemite.
19 ¶ And he smote the men of Beth-shemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had smitten many of the people with a great slaughter.
20 And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God? and to whom shall he go up from us?
21 ¶ And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have brought again the ark of the LORD; come ye down, and fetch it up to you.
