called°°
for the priests°

it to his place.° |
|
6:3
And they said, If ye send away the ark of the covenant of the Lord God of Israel, do not on any account send it away empty, but by all means render to it an offering for the plague; and then shall ye be healed, and an atonement shall be made for you: should not his hand be [thus] stayed from off you? |
|
6:3
And they said,°°
If°
ye send away°°°
the ark°
of the Elohim°
of Israel,°
send°°
it not°
empty;°

in any wise°°
return°°
him a trespass offering:°
then°
ye shall be healed,°°
and it shall be known°°
to you why°
his hand°
is not°
removed°°
from°
you. |
|
6:4

|
6:4

they, What°
[shall be] the trespass offering°
which°
we shall return°°
to him? They answered,°°
Five°
golden°
emerods,°°°
and five°
golden°
mice,°
[according to] the number°
of the lords°
of the Philistines:°
for°
one°
plague°
[was] on you all,°
and on your lords.° |
|
6:5
According to the number of the lords of the Philistines, five golden emerods, for the plague was on you, and on your rulers, and on the people; and golden mice, the likeness of the mice that destroy your land: and ye shall give glory to the Lord, that he may lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land. |
|
6:5
Wherefore ye shall make°°
images°
of your emerods,°°°
and images°
of your mice°
that mar°°°
the land;°
and ye shall give°°
glory°
unto the Elohim°
of Israel:°
peradventure°
he will lighten°°°
his hand°
from off°°
you, and from off°°
your elohim,°
and from off°°
your land.° |
|
6:6
And why do ye harden your hearts, as Mizraim{gr.Egypt} and Pharaoh{gr.Pharao} hardened their hearts? [was it] not [so] when he mocked them, [that] they let the people go, and they departed? |
|
6:6
Wherefore°
then do ye harden°°°
your hearts,°
as°
the Egyptians°

hardened°°°
their hearts?°
when°

among them, did they not°
let the people go,°°
and they departed?°°° |

the kine°
to the cart,°

their calves°
home°
from°°
them:° |
|
6:8

|
6:8

the ark°
of Yahweh,°
and lay°°
it upon°
the cart;°
and put°°
the jewels°
of gold,°
which°
ye return°°
him [for] a trespass offering,°
in a coffer°
by the side°°
thereof; and send it away,°°°
that it may go.°° |
|
6:9
And ye shall see, if it shall go the way of its coasts along by Bethshemesh{gr.Baethsamys}, he has brought upon us this great affliction; and if not, then shall we know that his hand has not touched us, but this [is a] chance [which] has happened to us. |
|
6:9
And see,°°
if°
it goeth up°°
by the way°
of his own coast°
to Bethshemesh,°
[then] he°
hath done°°
us°
this°
great°
evil:°
but if°
not,°
then we shall know°°

his hand°
[that] smote°°
us: it°
[was] a chance°
[that] happened°
to us.°° |
