¹⁹ Elohim struck down some of the people from Beth Shemesh because they looked inside the ark of Yahweh. He struck down 70 people.^[a] The people mourned because Yahweh struck them with such a great blow. ²⁰ The people of Beth Shemesh asked, “Who can stand before Yahweh, this holy Elohim? And to which people will he go when he leaves us?” ²¹ They sent messengers to the people living at Kiriath Jearim to say, “The Philistines have brought back the ark of Yahweh. Come and take it back with you.”
