And the messenger answered and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there hath been also a great slaughter among the people, and thy two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God is taken.
The messenger replied, "Israel ran away from the Philistines, many people were killed, your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, died, and the sacred box called the Ark of God was taken away."
