1 Samuel 6:19-21
New International Version
19 But God struck down(A) some of the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh, putting seventy[a] of them to death because they looked(B) into the ark of the Lord. The people mourned because of the heavy blow the Lord had dealt them. 20 And the people of Beth Shemesh asked, “Who can stand(C) in the presence of the Lord, this holy(D) God? To whom will the ark go up from here?”
21 Then they sent messengers to the people of Kiriath Jearim,(E) saying, “The Philistines have returned the ark of the Lord. Come down and take it up to your town.”
