So they said, “If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it empty; but by all means return it to Him with a trespass offering. Then you will be healed, and it will be known to you why His hand is not removed from you.”

1Sa 6:11
And they set the ark of the LORD on the cart, and the chest with the gold rats and the images of their tumors.
