1 Samuel 5:3-5

EasyEnglish Bible

³ The next morning, the people in Ashdod got up early. They saw that Dagon had fallen down in front of the Lord's Covenant Box. The idol's face was touching the ground. So they took Dagon and they put him back in his place.

⁴ The next morning, they got up early again. They saw that Dagon had fallen down in front of the Lord's Covenant Box again! His head and both his hands had broken off. They were lying on the step of the temple's door. Only his body remained together. ⁵ Because of that, even today Dagon's priests and other people never walk on the step of Dagon's temple in Ashdod.
