1 Samuel 4

English Standard Version ESV

1 And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out to battle against the Philistines. They encamped at Ebenezer, and the Philistines encamped at Aphek.

2 The Philistines drew up in line against Israel, and when the battle spread, Israel was defeated before the Philistines, who killed about four thousand men on the field of battle.

3 And when the people came to the camp, the elders of Israel said, “Why has the Lord defeated us today before the Philistines? Let us bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord here from Shiloh, that it may come among us and save us from the power of our enemies. ”

4 So the people sent to Shiloh and brought from there the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts, who is enthroned on the cherubim. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.

5 As soon as the ark of the covenant of the Lord came into the camp, all Israel gave a mighty shout, so that the earth resounded.

6 And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shouting, they said, “What does this great shouting in the camp of the Hebrews mean? ” And when they learned that the ark of the Lord had come to the camp,

7 the Philistines were afraid, for they said, “A god has come into the camp. ” And they said, “Woe to us! For nothing like this has happened before.

8 Woe to us! Who can deliver us from the power of these mighty gods? These are the gods who struck the Egyptians with every sort of plague in the wilderness.

9 Take courage, and be men, O Philistines, lest you become slaves to the Hebrews as they have been to you; be men and fight. ”

10 So the Philistines fought, and Israel was defeated, and they fled, every man to his home. And there was a very great slaughter, for thirty thousand foot soldiers of Israel fell.

11 And the ark of God was captured, and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.

12 A man of Benjamin ran from the battle line and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes torn and with dirt on his head.

13 When he arrived, Eli was sitting on his seat by the road watching, for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city and told the news, all the city cried out.

14 When Eli heard the sound of the outcry, he said, “What is this uproar? ” Then the man hurried and came and told Eli.

15 Now Eli was ninety-eight years old and his eyes were set so that he could not see.

16 And the man said to Eli, “I am he who has come from the battle; I fled from the battle today. ” And he said, “How did it go, my son? ”

17 He who brought the news answered and said, “Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has also been a great defeat among the people. Your two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been captured. ”

18 As soon as he mentioned the ark of God, Eli fell over backward from his seat by the side of the gate, and his neck was broken and he died, for the man was old and heavy. He had judged Israel forty years.

19 Now his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was pregnant, about to give birth. And when she heard the news that the ark of God was captured, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed and gave birth, for her pains came upon her.

20 And about the time of her death the women attending her said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you have borne a son. ” But she did not answer or pay attention.

21 And she named the child Ichabod, saying, “The glory has departed from Israel! ” because the ark of God had been captured and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

22 And she said, “The glory has departed from Israel, for the ark of God has been captured. ”

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 egressus est namque Israhel obviam Philisthim in proelium et castrametatus est iuxta lapidem Adiutorii porro Philisthim venerunt in Afec

2 et instruxerunt aciem contra Israhel inito autem certamine terga vertit Israhel Philistheis et caesa sunt in illo certamine passim per agros quasi quattuor milia virorum

3 et reversus est populus ad castra dixeruntque maiores natu de Israhel quare percussit nos Dominus hodie coram Philisthim adferamus ad nos de Silo arcam foederis Domini et veniat in medium nostri ut salvet nos de manu inimicorum nostrorum

4 misit ergo populus in Silo et tulerunt inde arcam foederis Domini exercituum sedentis super cherubin erantque duo filii Heli cum arca foederis Domini Ofni et Finees

5 cumque venisset arca foederis Domini in castra vociferatus est omnis Israhel clamore grandi et personuit terra

6 et audierunt Philisthim vocem clamoris dixeruntque quaenam haec est vox clamoris magni in castris Hebraeorum et cognoverunt quod arca Domini venisset in castra

7 timueruntque Philisthim dicentes venit Deus in castra et ingemuerunt

8 vae nobis non enim fuit tanta exultatio heri et nudius tertius vae nobis quis nos servabit de manu deorum sublimium istorum hii sunt dii qui percusserunt Aegyptum omni plaga in deserto

9 confortamini et estote viri Philisthim ne serviatis Hebraeis sicut illi servierunt vobis confortamini et bellate

10 pugnaverunt ergo Philisthim et caesus est Israhel et fugit unusquisque in tabernaculum suum et facta est plaga magna nimis et ceciderunt de Israhel triginta milia peditum

11 et arca Dei capta est duoque filii Heli mortui sunt Ofni et Finees

12 currens autem vir de Beniamin ex acie venit in Silo in die illo scissa veste et conspersus pulvere caput

13 cumque ille venisset Heli sedebat super sellam contra viam aspectans erat enim cor eius pavens pro arca Domini vir autem ille postquam ingressus est nuntiavit urbi et ululavit omnis civitas

14 et audivit Heli sonitum clamoris dixitque quis est hic sonitus tumultus huius at ille festinavit et venit et adnuntiavit Heli

15 Heli autem erat nonaginta et octo annorum et oculi eius caligaverant et videre non poterat

16 et dixit ad Heli ego sum qui veni de proelio et ego qui de acie fugi hodie cui ille ait quid actum est fili mi

17 respondens autem qui nuntiabat fugit inquit Israhel coram Philisthim et ruina magna facta est in populo insuper et duo filii tui mortui sunt Ofni et Finees et arca Dei capta est

18 cumque ille nominasset arcam Dei cecidit de sella retrorsum iuxta ostium et fractis cervicibus mortuus est senex enim erat vir et grandevus et ipse iudicavit Israhel quadraginta annis

19 nurus autem eius uxor Finees praegnans erat vicinaque partui et audito nuntio quod capta esset arca Dei et mortuus socer suus et vir suus incurvavit se et peperit inruerant enim in eam dolores subiti

20 in ipso autem momento mortis eius dixerunt ei quae stabant circa eam ne timeas quia filium peperisti quae non respondit eis neque animadvertit

21 et vocavit puerum Hicabod dicens translata est gloria de Israhel quia capta est arca Dei et pro socero suo et pro viro suo

22 et ait translata est gloria ab Israhel eo quod capta esset arca Dei
