1 Samuel 7:2-17

And it came to pass, while
<03117>

the ark
<0727>

abode
<03427> (8800)

in Kirjathjearim
<07157>_,

that the time
<03117>

was long
<07235> (8799)_;

for it was twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>_:

and all the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

lamented
<05091> (8735)

after
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

spake
<0559> (8799)

unto all the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

If ye do return
<07725> (8802)

unto the LORD
<03068>

with all your hearts
<03824>_,

[then] put away
<05493> (8685)

the strange
<05236>

gods
<0430>

and Ashtaroth
<06252>

from among
<08432>

you, and prepare
<03559> (8685)

your hearts
<03824>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and serve
<05647> (8798)

him only: and he will deliver
<05337> (8686)

you out of the hand
<03027>

of the Philistines
<06430>_.

Then the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

did put away
<05493> (8686)

Baalim
<01168>

and Ashtaroth
<06252>_,

and served
<05647> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

only.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Gather
<06908> (8798)

all Israel
<03478>

to Mizpeh
<04708>_,

and I will pray
<06419> (8691)

for you unto the LORD
<03068>_.

And they gathered together
<06908> (8735)

to Mizpeh
<04709>_,

and drew
<07579> (8799)

water
<04325>_,

and poured [it] out
<08210> (8799)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

and fasted
<06684> (8799)

on that day
<03117>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

there, We have sinned
<02398> (8804)

against the LORD
<03068>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

judged
<08199> (8799)

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

in Mizpeh
<04708>_.

And when the Philistines
<06430>

heard
<08085> (8799)

that the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

were gathered together
<06908> (8694)

to Mizpeh
<04708>_,

the lords
<05633>

of the Philistines
<06430>

went up
<05927> (8799)

against Israel
<03478>_.

And when the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

heard
<08085> (8799)

[it], they were afraid
<03372> (8799)

of
<06440>

the Philistines
<06430>_.

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Samuel
<08050>_,

Cease
<02790> (8686)

not to cry
<02199> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

for us, that he will save
<03467> (8686)

us out of the hand
<03027>

of the Philistines
<06430>_.

{Cease...: Heb. Be not silent from us from crying}

And Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

a
<0259>

sucking
<02461>

lamb
<02924>_,

and offered
<05927> (8686)

[it for] a burnt offering
<05930>

wholly
<03632>

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

and Samuel
<08050>

cried
<02199> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

for Israel
<03478>_;

and the LORD
<03068>

heard
<06030> (8799)

him. {heard: or, answered}

And as Samuel
<08050>

was offering up
<05927> (8688)

the burnt offering
<05930>_,

the Philistines
<06430>

drew near
<05066> (8738)

to battle
<04421>

against Israel
<03478>_:

but the LORD
<03068>

thundered
<07481> (8686)

with a great
<01419>

thunder
<06963>

on that day
<03117>

upon the Philistines
<06430>_,

and discomfited
<02000> (8799)

them; and they were smitten
<05062> (8735)

before
<06440>

Israel
<03478>_.

And the men
<0582>

of Israel
<03478>

went out
<03318> (8799)

of Mizpeh
<04709>_,

and pursued
<07291> (8799)

the Philistines
<06430>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

them, until [they came] under Bethcar
<01033>_.

Then Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

a
<0259>

stone
<068>_,

and set
<07760> (8799)

[it] between Mizpeh
<04709>

and Shen
<08129>_,

and called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of it Ebenezer
<072>_,

saying
<0559> (8799)_,

Hitherto hath the LORD
<03068>

helped
<05826> (8804)

us. {Ebenezer: that is, The stone of help}

So the Philistines
<06430>

were subdued
<03665> (8735)_,

and they came
<0935> (8800)

no more
<03254> (8804)

into the coast
<01366>

of Israel
<03478>_:

and the hand
<03027>

of the LORD
<03068>

was against the Philistines
<06430>

all the days
<03117>

of Samuel
<08050>_.

And the cities
<05892>

which the Philistines
<06430>

had taken
<03947> (8804)

from Israel
<03478>

were restored
<07725> (8799)

to Israel
<03478>_,

from Ekron
<06138>

even unto Gath
<01661>_;

and the coasts
<01366>

thereof did Israel
<03478>

deliver
<05337> (8689)

out of the hands
<03027>

of the Philistines
<06430>_.

And there was peace
<07965>

between Israel
<03478>

and the Amorites
<0567>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

judged
<08199> (8799)

Israel
<03478>

all the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_.

And he went
<01980> (8804)

from
<01767>

year
<08141>

to year
<08141>

in circuit
<05437> (8804)

to Bethel
<01008>_,

and Gilgal
<01537>_,

and Mizpeh
<04709>_,

and judged
<08199> (8804)

Israel
<03478>

in all those places
<04725>_.

{in circuit: Heb. and he circuited}

And his return
<08666>

[was] to Ramah
<07414>_;

for there [was] his house
<01004>_;

and there he judged
<08199> (8804)

Israel
<03478>_;

and there he built
<01129> (8799)

an altar
<04196>

unto the LORD
<03068>_.
