3Early the next day the people of Ashdod saw that Dagon had fallen forward on the ground in front of the Lord’s ark. So they took Dagon and put him back in his place. 4But the next morning they saw that Dagon had ⸤again⸥ fallen forward on the ground in front of the Lord’s ark. Dagon’s head and his two hands were cut off ⸤and were lying⸥ on the temple’s threshold. The rest of Dagon’s body was intact.a
