1 Samuel 4:19-22 ▼

19 Eli's daughter-in-law, the wife of Phineas, was pregnant and ready to give birth. When she heard the report about the capture of the Ark of God and that her father-in-law and husband were dead, she crouched down and gave birth, because her labor pains suddenly began.

20 As she was about to die, the women standing around her said, |Don't be afraid! You've given birth to a son.| But she did not respond or pay attention.

21 She had named the boy Ichabod, saying, |Glory has departed from Israel,| because the Ark of God had been captured and because her father-in-law and husband were dead.

22 She said, |Glory has departed from Israel, because the Ark of God has been captured.|
