1 Samuel 4:15-17
Holman Christian Standard Bible
15 At that time Eli was 98 years old, and his gaze was fixed[a] because he couldn’t see.(A)
16 The man said to Eli, “I’m the one who came from the battle.[b] I fled from there today.”
“What happened, my son?”(B) Eli asked.
17 The messenger answered, “Israel has fled from the Philistines, and also there was a great slaughter among the people. Your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are both dead, and the ark of God has been captured.”
