1 Samuel 7:10-13 ▼

10 While Samuel was sacrificing the burnt offering, the Philistines approached to attack Israel. But that day the LORD thundered against the Philistines and threw them into panic, and they were defeated before Israel.

11 The men of Israel went out from Mizpah, pursued the Philistines, and struck them down as far as a point below Beth-car.

12 Then Samuel took a stone, placed it between Mizpah and Shen and named it Ebenezer. He said, |The LORD has helped us this far.|

13 The Philistines were subdued, and they did not continue to enter the territory of Israel. The LORD continued to oppose the Philistines all during Samuel's life time.
