God’s Holy Box Is Sent Back Home
6 The Philistines kept the Lord’s Holy Box in their land for seven months. 2 The Philistines called their priests and magicians and said, “What must we do with the Lord’s Box? Tell us how to send it back home.”
3 The priests and magicians answered, “If you send back the Holy Box of the God of Israel, don’t send it away empty. You must offer gifts to the God of Israel. Then you will be healed. You must do this so that God will stop punishing you.”[a]
