    9 Watch to see: if it goes up along the road to its own territory, toward Beth Shemesh, then it is the LORD who has brought this great disaster upon us. But if it does not, then we will know it was not his hand that struck us; it happened by chance.

    10 The men did so. They took two nursing cows, hitched them to the cart, and confined their calves to the barn.

    11 Then they placed the ark of the LORD on the cart, along with the box containing the gold mice and the models of their tumors.
