1 Samuel 7:11-13

Expanded Bible

¹¹ The men of Israel ·ran [rushed; ^Lwent] out of Mizpah and ·chased [pursued] the Philistines almost to Beth Car [^Cexact location is unknown], ·killing the Philistines [slaughtering them] along the way.

Peace Comes to Israel

¹² After this happened Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen.^[a] He named the stone Ebenezer [^C“Stone of help”], saying, “The Lord has helped us ·to this point [this far].” ¹³ So the Philistines were ·defeated [subdued; humbled] and did not enter the Israelites’ ·land [borders] again.

The [^Lhand of the] Lord was against the Philistines all Samuel’s life.
