11 So they assembled[a] all the leaders of the Philistines and said, “Get the ark of the God of Israel out of here! Let it go back to its own place so that it won’t kill us[b] and our[c] people!” The terror[d] of death was throughout the entire city; God was attacking them very severely there.[e] 12 The people[f] who did not die were struck with sores; the city’s cry for help went all the way up to heaven.

New International Version
11 So they called together all the rulers(A) of the Philistines and said, “Send the ark of the god of Israel away; let it go back to its own place, or it[a] will kill us and our people.” For death had filled the city with panic; God’s hand was very heavy on it. 12 Those who did not die(B) were afflicted with tumors, and the outcry of the city went up to heaven.
