"And those men who were not overtaken by death were cruelly diseased: and the cry of the town went up to heaven."

“And the men that died not were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the city went up to heaven. ”
“And the men that died not were smitten with the tumors; and the cry of the city went up to heaven. ”
“The men who didn't die were struck with the tumors; and the cry of the city went up to heaven.”
But after they had taken it away, the hand of the Lord was stretched out against the town for its destruction: and the signs of disease came out on all the men of the town, small and great.
So they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And when the ark of God came to Ekron, the people of the town made an outcry, saying, They have sent the ark of the God of Israel to us for the destruction of us and of our people.
So they sent and got together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its place, so that it may not be the cause of death to us and to our people: for there was a great fear of death through all the town; the hand of God was very hard on them there.
And those men who were not overtaken by death were cruelly diseased: and the cry of the town went up to heaven.
