1 Samuel 5:3-5

English Standard Version Anglicised

³ And when the people of Ashdod rose early the next day, behold, ^(A)Dagon had fallen face down on the ground before the ark of the Lord. So they took Dagon and put him back in his place. ⁴ But when they rose early on the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen face down on the ground before the ark of the Lord, ^(B)and the head of Dagon and both his hands were lying cut off on the threshold. Only the trunk of Dagon was left to him. ⁵ This is why the priests of Dagon and all who enter the house of Dagon ^(C)do not tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.
