1Καὶ ἀλλόφυλοι ἔλαβον τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ εἰσήνεγκαν αὐτὴν ἐξ Ἀβενεζὲρ εἰς Ἄζωτον.
1Now the Philistines had taken the ark of God, and they brought it from Eben-ezer unto Ashdod.
2Καὶ ἔλαβον ἀλλόφυλοι τὴν κιβωτὸν Κυρίου, καὶ εἰσήνεγκαν αὐτὴν εἰς οἴκον Δαγὼν, καὶ παρέστησαν αὐτὴν παρὰ Δαγών.
2And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
3Καὶ ὤρθρισαν οἱ Ἀζώτιοι, καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς οἶκον Δαγών· καὶ εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ Δαγὼν πεπτωκὼς ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐνώπιον κιβωτοῦ τοῦ Θεοῦ· καὶ ἤγειραν τὸν Δαγὼν, καὶ κατέστησαν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐβαρύνθη χεὶρ Κυρίου ἐπὶ τοὺς Ἀζωτίους, καὶ ἐβασάνισεν αὐτούς· καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὰς ἕδρας αὐτῶν, τὴν Ἄζωτον καὶ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς.
3And when they of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
4Καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ὤρθρισαν τοπρωῒ, καὶ ἰδοὺ Δαγὼν, πεπτωκὼς ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐνώπιον κιβωτοῦ διαθήκης Κυρίου· καὶ κεφαλὴ Δαγὼν καὶ ἀμφότερα τὰ ἴχνη χειρῶν αὐτοῦ ἀφῃρημένα ἐπὶ τὰ ἐμπρόσθια ἁμαφὲθ ἕκαστοι, καὶ ἀμφότεροι οἱ καρποὶ τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ πεπτωκότες ἐπὶ τὸ πρόθυρον, πλὴν ἡ ῥάχις Δαγὼν ὑπελείφθη.
4And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands lay cut off upon the threshold; only the trunk of Dagon was left to him.
5Διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἐπιβαίνουσιν οἱ ἱερεῖς Δαγὼν, καὶ πᾶς ὁ εἰσπορευόμενος εἰς οἶκον Δαγὼν, ἐπὶ βαθμὸν οἴκου Δαγὼν ἐν Ἀζώτῳ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, ὅτι ὑπερβαίνοντες ὑπερβαίνουσι.
5Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod unto this day.
6Καὶ ἐβαρύνθη ἡ χεὶρ Κυρίου ἐπὶ Ἄζωτον, καὶ ἐπήγαγεν αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἐξέζεσεν αὐτοῖς εἰς τὰς ναῦς, καὶ μέσον τῆς χώρας αὐτῆς ἀνεφύησαν μύες· καὶ ἐγένετο σύγχυσις θανάτου μεγάλη ἐν τῇ πόλει.
6But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and He destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, even Ashdod and the borders thereof.
7Καὶ εἶδον οἱ ἄνδρες Ἀζώτου ὅτι οὕτως, καὶ λέγουσιν, ὅτι οὐ καθήσεται κιβωτὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ μεθʼ ἡμῶν, ὅτι σκληρὰ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπὶ Δαγὼν θεὸν ἡμῶν.
7And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said: 'The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us; for His hand is sore upon us, and upon Dagon our god.'
8Καὶ ἀποστέλλουσι καὶ συνάγουσι τοὺς σατράπας τῶν ἀλλοφύλων πρὸς αὐτοὺς, καὶ λέγουσι, τί ποιήσωμεν τῇ κιβωτῷ Θεοῦ Ἰσραήλ; καὶ λέγουσιν οἱ Γεθαῖοι, μετελθέτω κιβωτὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ πρὸς ἡμᾶς· καὶ μετῆλθε κιβωτὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Γέθ.
8They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto them, and said: 'What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?' And they answered: 'Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about unto Gath.' And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about thither.
9Καὶ ἐγενήθη μετὰ τὸ μετελθεῖν αὐτὴν, καὶ γίνεται χεὶρ Κυρίου τῇ πόλει, τάραχος μέγας σφόδρα· καὶ ἐπάταξε τοὺς ἄνδρας τῆς πόλεως ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὰς ἕδρας αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ Γεθαῖοι ἑαυτοῖς ἕδρας.
9And it was so, that, after they had carried it about, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great discomfiture; and He smote the men of the city, both small and great, and emerods broke out upon them.
10Καὶ ἐξαποστέλλουσι τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰς Ἀσκάλωνα· καὶ ἐγενήθη ὡς εἰσῆλθε κιβωτὸς Θεοῦ εἰς Ἀσκάλωνα, καὶ ἐβόησαν οἱ Ἀσκαλωνῖται, λέγοντες, τί ἀπεστρέψατε τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς ἡμᾶς θανατῶσαι ἡμᾶς καὶ τὸν λαὸν ἡμῶν;
10So they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying: 'They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to slay us and our people.'
11Καὶ ἐξαποστέλλουσι καὶ συνάγουσι τοὺς σατράπας τῶν ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ εἶπον, ἐξαποστείλατε τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ καθισάτω εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτῆς, καὶ οὐ μὴ θανατώσῃ ἡμᾶς καὶ τὸν λαὸν ἡμῶν· Ὅτι ἐγενήθη σύγχυσις ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ πόλει βαρεῖα σφόδρα, ὡς εἰσῆλθεν κιβωτὸς Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐκεῖ.
11They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said: 'Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its own place, that it slay us not, and our people'; for there was a deadly discomfiture throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
12καὶ οἱ ζῶντες καὶ οὐκ ἀποθανόντες ἐπλήγησαν εἰς τὰς ἕδρας· καὶ ἀνέβη ἡ κραυγὴ τῆς πόλεως εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν.
12And the men that died not were smitten with the emerods; and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
