The gold tumors which the P’lishtim sent back as a guilt offering for ADONAI were one each for Ashdod, ‘Azah, Ashkelon, Gat and ‘Ekron; and the gold rats also corresponded to the number of all the cities of the P’lishtim that belonged to the five leaders — fortified cities and country villages. [The rock] is a witness to this day of the great mourning [which resulted from] putting the ark of ADONAI on it in the field of Y’hoshua the Beit-Shimshi; for [ADONAI] struck the people of Beit-Shemesh for looking at the ark of ADONAI. He killed 50,070 of the people; the people mourned because ADONAI had struck them with such a terrible slaughter.
