1. Samuelsbok 4,22

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.

21 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.

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

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
