10 Lutaram, pois, os filisteus, e Israel foi vencido, e fugiram cada qual a suas tendas; e foi feita muito grande mortandade, pois caíram de Israel trinta mil homens a pé.

11 E a arca de Deus foi tomada, e morreram os dois filhos de Eli, Hofni e Fineias.

12 E correndo da batalha um homem de Benjamim, veio naquele dia a Siló, com suas roupas rasgadas e com terra sobre sua cabeça:

13 E quando chegou, eis que Eli que estava sentado em uma cadeira vigiando junto ao caminho; porque seu coração estava tremendo por causa da arca de Deus. Chegado pois aquele homem à cidade, e dadas as novas, toda a cidade gritou.
