19 L’Éternel frappa les gens de Beth-Schémesch, lorsqu’ils regardèrent l’arche de l’Éternel; il frappa [cinquante mille] soixante-dix hommes parmi le peuple. Et le peuple fut dans la désolation, parce que l’Éternel l’avait frappé d’une grande plaie.
20 Les gens de Beth-Schémesch dirent: Qui peut subsister en présence de l’Éternel, de ce Dieu saint? Et vers qui l’arche doit-elle monter, en s’éloignant de nous?
