19 But the sons of Jeconiah did not rejoice with the people of Beth Shemesh when they saw the ark of the LORD. So he struck seventy men of them, and the people mourned, because the LORD had struck the people with a great slaughter. 20 And the men of Beth Shemesh said, |Who is able to stand before this holy thing? And to whom should he go up from here?| 21 They sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kiriath Jearim, saying, |The Philistines have brought back the ark of the LORD; come down, and bring it up to yourselves.| 1 Samuel 6:19-21, New Heart English Bible.
