1. Samuelsbok 6,1

Herrens ark ble holdt i filisterland i syv måneder.

2 Da kalte filisterne på prestene og spåmennene og sa: "Hva skal vi gjøre med Herrens ark? Fortell oss hvordan vi skal sende den tilbake til sitt sted."

3 De svarte: "Hvis dere sender tilbake Israels Guds ark, må dere ikke sende den tom, men sørg for å sende med et skyldoffer. Da vil dere bli helbredet, og dere vil forstå hvorfor Hans hånd ikke har vendt seg bort fra dere."
