19. Some of the men of Beth-Shemesh looked inside the sacred chest, and the Lord God killed seventy of them. This made the people of Beth-Shemesh very sad,
20. and they started saying, “No other God is like the Lord! Who can go near him and still live? We'll have to send the chest away from here. But where can we send it?”
21. They sent messengers to tell the people of Kiriath-Jearim, “The Philistines have sent back the sacred chest. Why don't you take it and keep it there with you?”
