Back to Verses

And his daughter in law, Phinehas’ wife, was with child, near to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father in law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her.

Phinehas' wife, who was pregnant, heard that the Ark of God was stolen and her father-in-law and husband had died. Overwhelmed with grief, she started having labor pains because her baby was about to be born.
