7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, “God has come into the camp!” And they said, “Woe unto us! For there hath not been such a thing heretofore.
8 Woe unto us! Who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty gods? These are the gods who smote the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wilderness.
9 Be strong, and acquit yourselves like men, O ye Philistines, that ye be not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been to you. Acquit yourselves like men, and fight!”
