1 Samuel 4:18New Messianic Version BibleAnd it came to pass, when he made mention of the ark of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck broke, and he died: for he was an old man, and heavy. And he had judged Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] forty years. See the chapter |
And the messenger answered and said, Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] is fled before the P’lishtim [Immigrants], and there has been also a great slaughter among the people, and youi two sons also, Hofni [fighter] and Pinchas [mouth of brass], are dead, and the ark of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] is taken.
And his daughter in law, Pinchas [mouth of brass]’ wife, was with child, [near] to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] was taken, and that her father in law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her.
