1 Samuel 4:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 (Now Eli was fourscore and eighteen years old, and (A)his eyes were dim that he could not see.)
16 And the man said unto Eli, I came from the army, and I fled this day out of the host: and he said, What thing is done, my son?
17 Then the messenger answered, and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there hath been also a great slaughter among the people: and moreover thy two sons, Hophni and Phinehas [a]are dead, and the Ark of God is taken.
