And the king said to the guard who stood about him,“ Turn and kill the priests of the Lord, because their hand also is with David, and they knew that he fled and did not disclose it to me.” But the servants of the king would not put out their hand to strike the priests of the Lord.Then the king said to Doeg,“ You turn and strike the priests.” And Doeg the Edomite turned and struck down the priests, and he killed on that day eighty-five persons who wore the linen ephod.And Nob, the city of the priests, he put to the sword; both man and woman, child and infant, ox, donkey and sheep, he put to the sword.But one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David.

The Philistines drew up in line against Israel, and when the battle spread, Israel was defeated before the Philistines, who killed about four thousand men on the field of battle.

And the ark of God was captured, and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.A man of Benjamin ran from the battle line and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes torn and with dirt on his head.When he arrived, Eli was sitting on his seat by the road watching, for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city and told the news, all the city cried out.When Eli heard the sound of the outcry, he said,“ What is this uproar?” Then the man hurried and came and told Eli.Now Eli was ninety-eight years old and his eyes were set so that he could not see.And the man said to Eli,“ I am he who has come from the battle; I fled from the battle today.” And he said,“ How did it go, my son?”He who brought the news answered and said,“ Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has also been a great defeat among the people. Your two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been captured.”As soon as he mentioned the ark of God, Eli fell over backward from his seat by the side of the gate, and his neck was broken and he died, for the man was old and heavy. He had judged Israel forty years.Now his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was pregnant, about to give birth. And when she heard the news that the ark of God was captured, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed and gave birth, for her pains came upon her.And about the time of her death the women attending her said to her,“ Do not be afraid, for you have borne a son.” But she did not answer or pay attention.

“ Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and behold, it has not been bound up, to heal it by binding it with a bandage, so that it may become strong to wield the sword.Therefore thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt and will break his arms, both the strong arm and the one that was broken, and I will make the sword fall from his hand.I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them through the countries.And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon and put my sword in his hand, but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before him like a man mortally wounded.

For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the Lord upholds the righteous.

The king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada over the army in place of Joab, and the king put Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar.

You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless were crushed.

But the Levites who went far from me, going astray from me after their idols when Israel went astray, shall bear their punishment.

And to Abiathar the priest the king said,“ Go to Anathoth, to your estate, for you deserve death. But I will not at this time put you to death, because you carried the ark of the Lord God before David my father, and because you shared in all my father’s affliction.”So Solomon expelled Abiathar from being priest to the Lord, thus fulfilling the word of the Lord that he had spoken concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
