1 Después de capturar el arca de Dios, los filisteos la llevaron de Eben-ezer a Asdod.
1 Now the Philistines had taken God’s ark, and they brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod.
2 Llevaron el arca de Dios al templo de Dagón y la colocaron junto a Dagón.
2 The Philistines took God’s ark, and brought it into the house of Dagon and set it by Dagon.
3 A la mañana siguiente, cuando la gente de Asdod se levantó temprano, vio a Dagón caído rostro en tierra delante del arca del Señor. Entonces levantaron a Dagón y volvieron a ponerlo en su lugar.
3 When the people of Ashdod arose early on the next day, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before Yahweh’s ark. They took Dagon and set him in his place again.
4 A la mañana siguiente se levantaron temprano y otra vez encontraron a Dagón caído rostro en tierra delante del arca del Señor. Su cabeza y sus manos estaban separadas del cuerpo sobre el umbral. Solo quedó la base de Dagón en su lugar.
4 When they arose early on the following morning, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before Yahweh’s ark; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off on the threshold. Only Dagon’s torso was intact.
5 Por eso, hasta el día de hoy, ni los sacerdotes de Dagón ni los que entran en su templo en Asdod pisan el umbral.
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon nor any who come into Dagon’s house step on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.
6 Pero la mano del Señor cayó con fuerza sobre la gente de Asdod, y él les envió una enfermedad por toda la región de Asdod.
6 But Yahweh’s hand was heavy on the people of Ashdod, and he destroyed them and struck them with tumors, even Ashdod and its borders.
7 Cuando los hombres de Asdod vieron lo que sucedía, dijeron: El arca del Dios de Israel no debe quedarse con nosotros, porque su mano pesa sobre nosotros y sobre Dagón, nuestro dios.
7 When the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, “The ark of the God of Israel shall not stay with us, for his hand is severe on us and on Dagon our god.”
8 Entonces llamaron a todos los jefes de los filisteos y les preguntaron: ¿Qué debemos hacer con el arca del Dios de Israel? Ellos respondieron: Que la lleven a Gat. Así que llevaron allí el arca del Dios de Israel.
8 They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, “What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?” They answered, “Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried over to Gath.” They carried the ark of the God of Israel there.
9 Pero después de llevarla a Gat, la mano del Señor cayó contra la ciudad y causó una gran destrucción. Todos los hombres de la ciudad, grandes y pequeños, quedaron enfermos.
9 It was so, that after they had carried it there, Yahweh’s hand was against the city with a very great confusion; and he struck the men of the city, both small and great, so that tumors broke out on them.
10 Entonces enviaron el arca de Dios a Ecrón. Pero cuando el arca llegó a Ecrón, la gente de la ciudad gritó: Han traído el arca del Dios de Israel para matarnos a nosotros y a nuestro pueblo.
10 So they sent God’s ark to Ekron. As God’s ark came to Ekron, the Ekronites cried out, saying, “They have brought the ark of the God of Israel here to us, to kill us and our people.”
11 Por eso reunieron a todos los jefes de los filisteos y dijeron: Envíen de vuelta el arca del Dios de Israel a su lugar, para que no nos mate a nosotros ni a nuestro pueblo. La muerte causaba gran terror en toda la ciudad, porque la mano de Dios pesaba mucho sobre ellos.
11 They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said, “Send the ark of the God of Israel away, and let it go again to its own place, that it not kill us and our people.” For there was a deadly panic throughout all the city. The hand of God was very heavy there.
12 Los que no murieron quedaron gravemente enfermos, y el clamor de la ciudad subió hasta el cielo.
12 The men who didn’t die were struck with the tumors; and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
