The Death of the Widow of Phinehas (1SA 4:19-22)

[4:19] Eli's daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was pregnant, and it was almost time for her baby to be born. When she heard that God's Covenant Box had been captured and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she suddenly went into labor and gave birth.

[4:20] As she was dying, the women helping her said to her, “Be brave! You have a son!” But she paid no attention and did not answer.

[4:21] She named the boy Ichabod, explaining, “God's glory has left Israel”—referring to the capture of the Covenant Box and the death of her father-in-law and her husband.

[4:22] “God's glory has left Israel,” she said, “because God's Covenant Box has been captured.”
