5 When the ark of the Lord’s covenant came into the camp, all Israel raised such a great shout(A) that the ground shook. 6 Hearing the uproar, the Philistines asked, “What’s all this shouting in the Hebrew(B) camp?”
When they learned that the ark of the Lord had come into the camp, 7 the Philistines were afraid.(C) “A god has[a] come into the camp,” they said. “Oh no! Nothing like this has happened before. 8 We’re doomed! Who will deliver us from the hand of these mighty gods? They are the gods who struck(D) the Egyptians with all kinds of plagues(E) in the wilderness.
