17 As a restitution offering to the Lord, the Philistines had sent back one gold tumor for each city:(A) Ashdod, Gaza, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron. 18 The number of gold mice also corresponded to the number of Philistine cities of the five rulers, the fortified cities and the outlying villages.(B) The large rock(a)(C) on which the ark of the Lord was placed is in the field of Joshua of Beth-shemesh to this day.
