1 Samuel
The Lord struck men of Beth-shemesh because they looked upon the ark of the Lord. The people mourned and asked who could stand before the Lord, this holy God. 1 Samuel 6:19–20
19He struck of the men of Beth-shemesh, because they had looked into the ark of Yahweh, he struck of the people fifty thousand seventy men; and the people mourned, because Yahweh had struck the people with a great slaughter.
20The men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before Yahweh, this holy God? and to whom shall he go up from us?
