1 Samuel 6:6-8
New English Translation
6 Why harden your hearts like the Egyptians and Pharaoh did?[a] When God[b] treated them harshly, didn’t the Egyptians send the Israelites on their way?[c] 7 So now go and make a new cart. Get two cows that have calves and that have never had a yoke placed on them. Harness the cows to the cart, and take their calves from them back to their stalls. 8 Then take the ark of the Lord and place it on the cart, and put in a chest beside it the gold objects you are sending to him as a guilt offering. You should then send it on its way.
