And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.
Cuando se levantaron temprano a la mañana siguiente, encontraron que Dagón había caído boca abajo al suelo delante del arca del SEÑOR. La cabeza y las dos manos de Dagón habían sido cortadas y estaban sobre el umbral de la puerta. Solo quedaba el tronco de Dagón.
El ídolo Dagón fue encontrado destruido delante del arca de Dios, mostrando que solo Dios tiene verdadero poder.

In the biblical narrative of 1 Samuel, the Philistines had captured the Ark of the Covenant from the Israelites during a battle and placed it in the temple of their god Dagon in the city of Ashdod as a trophy of their victory. The following morning, they found Dagon fallen before the Ark, and on the next day, it was even more severely damaged, highlighting God's power over false deities. This event occurred around the 11th century BC, illustrating the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Philistines.
