1 Samuel 4:9-12
New International Version
9 Be strong, Philistines! Be men, or you will be subject to the Hebrews, as they(A) have been to you. Be men, and fight!”
10 So the Philistines fought, and the Israelites were defeated(B) and every man fled to his tent. The slaughter was very great; Israel lost thirty thousand foot soldiers. 11 The ark of God was captured, and Eli’s two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, died.(C)
Death of Eli
12 That same day a Benjamite(D) ran from the battle line and went to Shiloh with his clothes torn and dust(E) on his head.
