Summary
1 Samuel 6:10 - 6:15 

6:10. They did therefore in this manner: and taking two kine, that had sucking calves, they yoked them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home.

6:11. They laid the ark of God upon the cart, and the little box that had in it the golden mice, and the likeness of the emerods.

6:12. The kine took the straight way, that leads to Beth-shemesh, and they went along the way, lowing as they went: and turned not aside neither to the right hand nor to the left: and the lords of the Philistines followed them as far as the borders of Beth-shemesh.

6:13. Now the people of Beth-shemesh were reaping wheat in the valley: and lifting up their eyes, they saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.

'''6:14. The cart came into the field of Josue, a Beth-shemite, and stood there. And there was a great stone, and they cut in pieces the wood of the cart, and laid the kine upon it a holocaust to the Lord.'''

'''6:15. The Levites took down the ark of God, and the little box that was at the side of it, wherein were the vessels of gold, and they put them upon the great stone. The men also of Beth-shemesh offered holocausts, and sacrificed victims that day to the Lord.'''
