Legacy Standard Bible
17 (A)Now these are the golden tumors which the Philistines returned for a guilt offering to Yahweh: one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, one for Ekron; 18 and the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, (B)both of fortified cities and of country villages. (C)The large [a]stone on which they set the ark of Yahweh is a witness to this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite.
19 (D)Then He struck down some of the men of Beth-shemesh because they had looked into the ark of Yahweh. He struck down of all the people, 50,070 men, and the people mourned because Yahweh had struck the people with a great slaughter.
