撒母耳記上 4:3

百姓回到營裏，以色列的長老說：「耶和華今日為何使我們敗在非利士人面前呢？我們不如將耶和華的約櫃從示羅抬到我們這裏來，好在我們中間救我們脫離敵人的手。」

bǎi xìng huí dào yíng lǐ ， yǐ sè liè de zhǎng lǎo shuō ：「 yē hé huá jīn rì wèi hé shǐ wǒ men bài zài fēi lì shì rén miàn qián ne ？ wǒ men bù rú jiāng yē hé huá de yuē guì cóng shì luó tái dào wǒ men zhè lǐ lái ， hǎo zài wǒ men zhōng jiān jiù wǒ men tuō lí dí rén de shǒu 。」

When the people had come into the camp, the elders of Israel said, “Why has the LORD defeated us today before the Philistines? Let’s get the ark of the LORD’s covenant out of Shiloh and bring it to us, that it may come among us and save us out of the hand of our enemies.”
