He had judged Israel forty years.His daughter- in- law, Phinehas’ wife, was with child, near to giving birth. When she heard the news that God’s ark was taken and that her father- in- law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and gave birth; for her pains came on her.About the time of her death the women who stood by her said to her,“ Don’t be afraid, for you have given birth to a son.” But she didn’t answer, neither did she regard it.She named the child Ichabod, saying,“ The glory has departed from Israel!” because God’s ark was taken, and because of her father- in- law and her husband.She said,“ The glory has departed from Israel; for God’s ark has been taken.”
