1. Samuelsbok 4,21

GriefGod's presence

19 Nå var Elis svigerdatter, Pinehas' kone, gravid og nær fødsel. Da hun hørte nyheten om at Guds ark var tatt, og at hennes svigerfar og hennes mann var døde, gikk hun i fødsel og fødte, overveldet av sine smerter.

20 Mens hun var i ferd med å dø, sa kvinnene som sto ved henne: “Ikke vær redd, du har født en sønn.” Men hun svarte ikke eller ga akt.

Hun kalte gutten Ikabod og sa: “Herligheten har forlatt Israel,” fordi Guds ark var tatt og på grunn av hennes svigerfar og hennes manns død.

22 Hun sa: “Herligheten har forlatt Israel, for Guds ark er tatt.”
