1 Samuel 7:12-14
New Century Version
Peace Comes to Israel
12 After this happened Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named the stone Ebenezer,[a] saying, “The Lord has helped us to this point.” 13 So the Philistines were defeated and did not enter the Israelites’ land again.
The Lord was against the Philistines all Samuel’s life. 14 Earlier the Philistines had taken towns from the Israelites, but the Israelites won them back, from Ekron to Gath. They also took back from the Philistines the lands near these towns. There was peace also between Israel and the Amorites.
