So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to his own place, that it slay us not, and our people: for there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee.
Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
