* And the ark of Jehovah was in the field of the Philistines seven months . * And the Philistines called for priests and for diviners , saying , What shall we do to the ark of Jehovah ? Let us know with what we shall send it to its place . * And they said , If you send away the ark of the God of Israel , you shall not send it away empty . For you shall certainly send a guilt offering back to Him . Then you shall be healed , and it shall be known to you why His hand has not turned away from you . * And they said , What shall be the guilt offering which we shall send back to Him ? And they said , The number of the rulers of the Philistines , five golden hemorrhoids , and five golden mice . For one plague has been on all of you , and on your rulers . * And you shall make images of your hemorrhoids , and images of your mice that are corrupting the land , and shall give honor to the God of Israel . It may be that He will lighten His hand from off you and from off your gods , and from off your land . * And why do you harden your heart as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their heart ? When He acted powerfully with them , did they not send them away ? And they went . * And now , take and make one new cart , and two suckling cows , on which a yoke has never gone up . And you shall tie the cows to the cart , and cause their young ones to return home from them .
