1 Samuel 6:7-9

1 Samuel 6:7-9

[7] Now therefore make  new  cart,  and take  two  milch  kine,  on which there hath come  no yoke,  and tie  the kine  to the cart,  and bring  their calves  home  from them:  [8] And take  the ark  of the LORD,  and lay  it upon the cart;  and put  the jewels  of gold,  which ye return  him for a trespass offering,  in a coffer  by the side  thereof; and send it away,  that it may go.  [9] And see,  if it goeth up  by the way  of his own coast  to Bethshemesh,  then he hath done  us this great  evil:  but if not, then we shall know  that it is not his hand  that smote  us: it was a chance  that happened to us.
