'Scene' in the Bible

His priests [Hophni and Phinehas] fell by the sword,And His widows could not weep.

But he does not know that the spirits of the dead are there,And that her guests are [already] in the depths of Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead).

“For your ruins and desolate places and your land [once the scene] of destruction—Certainly now [in the coming years] will be too cramped for the inhabitants,And those who once engulfed you will be far away.

so that we may preach the gospel even in the lands beyond you, but not to boast in work already accomplished in another one’s field of activity.
