1 Samuel 7:4-6

Contemporary English Version

⁴ The people got rid of their idols of Baal and Astarte and began worshiping only the Lord.

⁵ Then Samuel said, “Tell everyone in Israel to meet together at Mizpah, and I will pray to the Lord for you.”

⁶ The Israelites met together at Mizpah with Samuel as their leader. They drew water from the well and poured it out as an offering to the Lord. On that same day they went without eating to show their sorrow, and they confessed they had been unfaithful to the Lord.
