18 E, quando egli mentovò l’Arca di Dio, Eli cadde d’in sul seggio a rovescio allato alla porta, e si ruppe la nuca, e morì; perciocchè egli era vecchio e grave. Or egli avea giudicato Israele quarant’anni.
18
When he mentioned the ark of God, Eli fell backward off his chair by the side of the gate. His neck was broken and he died, for he was an old man, and he was heavy. He had led Israel forty years.
